Chili's Lamb Shoulder

Well mcm mase Afeef jugak, walaupun this 2nd pregnancy I have a stronger craving compared to my 1st yg sgt xde mengidam sgt, tp Abang tetap has a stronger craving than me mcm mase I was pregnant of Afeef hehehe! Tapi this 2nd pregnancy, sejak 1st trimester Abang asik mengidam makanan Arab, asikla ajak pergi Ar-Rawsha or Al-Diafah..kesian Abang, coz I can't eat Makanan Arab due to some reasons already mentioned in previous post. Thanks to my BIL and family for serving us Ar-Rawsha menu mase beraya at their house, so Abang dh x mintak pergi Restoran Arab and now asik teringin Chili's Lamb Shoulder pulak hihihi!

Luckily, LS is also my fav, so off we went to Chilli's KLCC on last Thursday and mula2 Abang nk try other main dish sbb balik2 order LS kalau pegi Chili's, I told him, yg lain x sedap..but he insisted on trying. But when I ordered the all-time fav LS, terus Abang kecur and ordered the same. Sgt bernasib baik Abang ordered the LS too sbb the dish has been altered, i.e. they've added a small bowl of Black Pepper gravy besides the original serving! Mmg terbaekk! (sepatah kata abang hihi!) The marinate dah sedia sedap, topped with the delicious hot gravy, splendid!! Abang terus keluar verdict, "Dahla Lamb Shoulder mmg sedap, skang dh ade BP gravy, terus I dh x pandang lain dh!" So the pics that we took:

Abang acts goofy whenever he's hungry hihi~

Control ayu tau mak buyong ni~

Just look at how happy Abang was~

The newly amended lamb shoulder, super sumptuous!!

The newly added hot yummy complimenting black pepper gravy

Mmmm...inexplicably delicious!! 

Just look at how succulent the lamb is with the gravy smouldered over it...mmm!

That's my newly bought Twilight..sempat lagi baca while waiting for Abang performing Isha' prayer hihi! Oh ya, forgot to mention, while waiting for our turn to be seated, we went to Kinokuniya to buy my 'bekal' for confinement period; Twilight and 2 of Shopaholic series to complete the set I have at home. Didn't bought the complete set of the Twilight Saga, but already showed to Abang the rack should I need him to buy the other 3 during my confinement hihi..kesian Abang beria2 hafal, as he said, that was the 1st time he entered Kino!

Nak tunjuk jugak Lamb Shoulder before the sinful alteration. These pics were taken in May this year, I was in my 17th weeks back then:

 Without the BP gravy, but still sedapp!

Wow slimnye muke ku! 



 Cutenye Abang mase ni..mmuuaahh!



 Haloh3 muntat mama posing tido mcm pose dlm perut mase 3D scanning mmuahh~

Once upon a time our no 1 dessert, the choco mudpie..skrg tidak lg~

Nmpk tersgt sedap...tp CPK's & Bubbagump's choco dessert lg sinfulllll!!

Sbb sampai sekarang masih terliur bile teringat balik the newly altered LS, and sbb I'm due anytime soon (I'm today entering my 38th weeks) and takut ngidam pulak sbb xleh pegi Chili's mase pantang so tonight we're planning on our 2nd visit to Chili's weehee!! Lamb Shoulder, here we come!!

**Dulu time mengandung Afeef, Abang sgt mengidam sate. Bole kate every mth mesti at least skali we both menuju straight from work to Sate Zaini at Ampang situated en route to KDE. Mmg sgt sedapp! Lagi sedap dr Sate Kajang yg digebang2kan sgt tu..huhu! Plg terbaek sate kambing die fuhhh sooo succulent!! (asyik2 yg sedap aje mesti kambing, yes, we both are "kambing couple" but we smell human) Satu kali tu bole aje Abang fetching me, and as soon I hopped in the car terus ckp, "Kenape tekak I terase2 Sate Kajang ni ek?" sambil buat muke drooling.

"Haa joomm..." I replied layan kan idaman abang heheh! Off we went to Kajang. Skali x sedap daaa...terus kitorg berbalik ke Sate Zaini from that moment on. Now Afeef with only 2 geraham on his upper jaw, sgt xsuke makan ayam dada in fact luakkan balik sbb keras n susah kunyah tp kalau bagi sate bole abis 2-3 cucuk, mengunyah dgn sabar!

CPK

Dulu masa pregnant of Afeef, xde specifically mengidam anything cume perasan la selera tu more to masakan melayu. Sangat gile makan cili padi, walhal seumur hidup sebelum pregnant kalau makan any food nampak cili padi dalam lauk asingkan awal2 takut tergigit walaupun dh layu dek dimasak. Bole pulak tetibe mase pregnant every meal wajib ade cili padi hidup and make sure every suapan mesti ade 3-4 potong cili padi, kalau x xrase kick nye...ehhh pelik pulakk..lawan tokei betul (tokei = dearest hubby yang kuat pedas, die pun terbeliak tgk wife die yg aneh sbb die pn x mcm tu). Lepas tu suke makan ikan bilis garing, pun pelik sbb selalu asingkan awal2 mcm cili padi jugak, tp xla segila makan cili padi. Penyudahnya Afeef mmg bertekak melayu, sebijik Babah..ape Babah xsuke makan confirm die pn xsuke, haih kesian Mama masak lasagna ke mac n cheese ke semua xpenah dpt sambutan.

Tapi pregnancy kali ni, selera byk ke arah mat saleh specifically Italian. Makanan Arab and Jepun/Korean are big No-no sbb mase early pregnancy (xtau pn mase tu pregnant) we were in Korea, and asikla makan Korean food, kalau x pun Arab restaurant diterjah kat sane, so mase tu maybe sbb dh start rs fatigue and pening2 lalat so now bile sebut makanan arab and korean pn rs kembang tekak. Melayu tu tetap di hati, still suke makan ikan bilis and cili padi, tapi selalu rase teringin nak makan something western, kerjanya asik carik Waffle (Daily Fresh's is the best!!) and satu lagi kepingin pizza, pulak tu xnk makan the simple fast food pizza like Pizza Hut or Dominos (no offence to their fan but I personally think those pizza are nothing but a piece of bread topped with lauk-pauk esp those yang perisa sate la, tom yam la..lemak cili api ade?).

My definition of pizza is always pizza = Italian food thus mesti ade rase strong Italian herbs like oregano and basils and thyme whatnot. And disebabkan once a upon a time pernah plan a lunch date with Anim & Amir, which Anim initially recommended California Pizza Kitchen but later on changed our venue to House of Sundanese Food sebab suami2 kelaparan nasi hehe..And kebetulan pulak mmg nk treat this lovely couple lunch sbb terhutang budi yang amat atas penat lelah Amir pergi airport menyelamatkan my Freestyle pump yang nearly kene custom tax, so we planned a lunch date at CPK last Thursday at KLCC. Xsangka seperti dijangka the pizza was as described in the website, so Italian!! (although the name is California Pizza) Pictures speak a thousand words so they say unfortunately we were too busy berebut2 makan sampai terlupe nak snap pics tau2 dh licin pinggan so these pics are among what we ordered and are extracted from the website so explains the exaggerating texture but worry not coz the real one is about the same!

Thai Crunch Salad..wow sgt sedappp mcm rase Mieng Kam!

The Original Barbeque Chicken Pizza..hubby's choice yg suke BBQ

And we ordered this dessert yg sangat sedap dan sempat diambil gambar:

Punyela sedap pizza die, sampai balik kerja pn masih terasa2 pizza die dalam dinding mulut, and normally balik rumah from work terus dinner, but that day hubby tanye, "xlapar ke?" (sbb die tgk wife die ni relax aje dlm bilik). "Xnak makan bole x nanti rasa pizza ni hilang dr mulut.." I replied hahahah!

And the next day, I had a lunch plan with Tasya n Chura at KLCC, dengan xtau malunye mak yong ngidam ni ajak g CPK tp nak tong-tong sbb xde fulus huhuhu! Nasib baik la my dearest SFs ni sanggup melayan kerenah mak yong sorang ni, thank you darlings I love you soo mucchh mmuaahh!! So serba sedikit yang we ordered:

  

Wild Mushroom Pizza..the other 1 that we ordered smlmnye..

recommended by Anim...oh sedap3!

Portobello Mushroom Ravioli tersgt2 sedapp, a must try!

Also ordered smlmnye but with garlic white sauce pn sgt2 sedapp!

Me with Chura dearie, kenape Chura mesti nmpk chomell?? :p

Me & Tasya dearie..I hate my iPhone camera, it has no flash

so the result is this when you have backlight, thanx to the Flash application,

at least xdela silhouette je like the original one.

Oh BTW, they don't have Tabasco but that sauce bottle in front of us tu, lg sedap dr Tabasco!

Tp ni plg lazat..Key Lime Pie..sebijik nama dalam CafeWorld!

fuhhh terase2 lagi dlm mulut kemasaman+kemanisan+kelemakannye..

2nd 25th Birthday Celebration

This 2nd time i celebrated my birthday with my wonderful fiance.. :p was so gentleman of him to ask my dad's permission first, early in the morning (err..not that early..hee..) The venue was supposed to be a surprise for me..he did surprise me with flying colors, heeee..thought he wanted to bring me to a mamak restaurant or paling2 grand pun cozy corner ke..(xkisah la kn, as long as i can berbuka with him sambil tgk muke kekanda ku yg gorgeous itu weee..) but he drove me straight to Plaza Ampang basement parking lot..tup2 ehhh...berbuke at Crown Princess ke yang?? wiwiwiwiiiiii... :D

And it was truly sumptuous..the food was heavenly delicious and i can't stop eating sampai perut dah mcm mengandung 3 bulan...tegang tu..mcm pakai botox kat perut pun ade..erkk..and the big news is, i had my first dim sum here! meroyan kejap bile nampak ade dim sum yg pelbagai jenis...guess the chinese guy at the dim sum stall had already recognized me (bored seeing my face at his stall perhaps?? hihih..) ye la...asik dtg stall die jer....actually, there's a history about dim sum and me...and the story goes like this (kasik screen tv tu blurry skit plus gamba ade sepia effect tetiber):

"i spent my whole childhood in Pasir Gudang where we can get Indonesia and Singapore channels on our TV super clearly. Me and my kak ngah would switch to Singapore's SBC 5 everyday, religiously, before going to Sekolah Agama in the evening to watch mandarin dramas. Hitting me like a commercial ad, dim sum always appears in every drama and without warning, i would drool each time i saw them..mane taknyer, kecomelan bentuknyer yang pelbagai rupe yg unik dan texturenyer yg kilat2 basah itu sungguh meliurkan lagi menggugat jiwa kanak2 ku ketika itu...aduhhh sampai skarang pun sbnrnyer...heee"

Imagine i have been longing to taste a dim sum for nearly 20 years...however, comparing myself to the unfortunate, alhamdulillah, i am very lucky to at least have the chance..bulan Ramadhan ni kene insaf lebih skit..must always remember the unfortunate and help them by giving sadaqah more often..always remember, no matter how wealthy we are, how easy our life is...all these rezeki comes from the Almighty..and He can take it back from us anytime..so folks, let us always be humble and kind to those in need...seruan utk semua dan juge diri sendiri...


And makan jangan membazir..beli makanan byk2 kt bazaar, last2 basi jer..sbb byk sgt, x abis...speaking of membazir, just now, while i was choosing desserts before berbuka (this has actually been my habit since i was little, eating the desserts first instead of appetizers before the main course coz for me, appetizers should be sweet things like desserts and i'm such a sweet tooth, kaloh ore kelate, as validated by kelantaneses i.e. ming and biebozz) anyway, back to my story, a mother and her little girl was choosing desserts as well just beside me..overhearing the mother nagging the daughter..."jgn amik byk2, amik skit2 jer just utk rase..nnt x abis berdosa jer.." that line makes me smile coz it reminded me soo much of my mother and me when i was as little as the girl..she, just like the lady, always reminded us not to take too much food on our plate during buffet coz she knows pretty well, we are not going to finish it up and will end up by the waiters taking our still full plates away. Except my mom's favorite line ade tambahan kt blakang skit.."finish up your food..kesian kat org somalia...xmakan berhari2..kite yg dpt makan ni membazir2 pulak...baik beri pd org somalia food yg membazir tu..." i luv u ma, for teaching us to be a good khalifah on this earth..xoxoxo :) serba sebanyak, the pics of us that we took just now...

on our way to Crown Princess, in my kakngah's Bambi.
