Food Review: The Dessert of Champions

Tuesday, October 15, 2013 0 Comments
Since I am trying to conceive, I've cut back on my vodkas and beers and stick to 2 or 3 glasses of Merlot (yuck I know) but its for the best plus red wine is no harm for the heart. AND to accompany my drinks I usually order a dessert to make the Merlot taste better. Champions in Marriott Courtyard has about 5 choices of dessert, and they are:
  • chocolate nachos
  • lime pie

  • smores cheesecake (accompanied by 4 pieces of warm smores and 2 pieces of biscuits sandwiched together by a dose of caramel glue and then drenched in more of the caramel sauce)
  • apple cobbler (excellent coctail of apples cooked in cinnamon sauce and crumbled together with crumbs which was way too sweet but I'm not complaining!) It came with a side dish of vanilla ice cream in a ramekin

  • triple sundae (I had hard time swallowing this. Picture this ; 3 scoops of ice cream topped with chocolate sauce, a ramekin of bitter chocolate and a huge slice of chocolate cake underneath the ice cream coctail-just typing this was mouthful)

And my favorites were the cheesecake and the apple cobbler. I haven't tried the nachos yet which I will the next time I am there so let's see how that goes

Father's Day In One U

Sunday, July 19, 2009 0 Comments
For Father's Day, I brought my family (mom, dad, brother and Boby-aunt) to One Utama. We left in the morning and reached a bit early of our appointed reserved lunch time. So we spent some time in MPH, bought 2 books and then after a hearty lunch we went to Chikuyo or was it Chikoyu? The lunch was perfect as you can see, all the 5 dishes was wiped clean. My dad the food critic was soo busy stuffing himself full he forgot to complain about the dish. (He usually does this at home; "less salt", "too spicy" and "this is too much, whos going to finish it?") Yum Yum! 



The mock Assam Fish. This was heavenly!



The Claypot Vege. This didnt come in a claypot and I didnt the like corn-starchy feeling it had



The roasted duck was superb. The balance was fantastic!



The vege mock-steak


Total Bill: RM 110++

After lunch, we hit Pasta Zanmai for dessert. I went there with Satish before and I loved the dessert. We had the nicest time eating our vegetarian pasta and since their dessert was superb, I saved my stomach for ice cream and crepes!. We ordered like 6 dishes. Strawberry ice cream, banana-chocolate, green tea and black sesame, and the best of all-strawberry crepes!



My banana-chocolate



My half eaten grub



Boby's Green team-black sesame



The sweetest dish of all--strawberry crepe! Although I must say the crepe wasnt so fresh..



Love the berries and the cream..it was so heavenly!


Tab came up to RM 95
