Baci: Italian Cafe

Where my cousin had a birthday party for her husband.

It's located at a mall which I didn't know existed. Unlike Paradigm Mall which had extensive advertisement prior to it's opening, I didn't knew of Citta Mall until, well, last weekend which was the day of my cousin's husband's birthday.

Aglio e olio. I know the name because... I always make this dish!

Baci Salad. The olives are the best! I've never liked purple lettuce. Yes they look pretty but the taste ToT

Reminded me of a story. My friend never ate purple lettuce (Don't know what's its exact name) before but she wanted to make salad. She was attracted by it's purple-ness and made a purple lettuce-honeydew salad. Erm, well, it's as tasty as the name suggest XD

Lasagna. So-so.

Roasted chicken. Dad had lunch here before and he said the standard of food that day wasn't up to par.

Gelato which doesn't taste like gelato. It's highly UNrecommended. Gelato are supposed to be smooth and creamy but this was sandy and rough =S

Pizza is yummy though. LOVE THE OLIVES!

Red velvet cake. I've had better red velvet cakes. Actually not cakes, but cupcakes. Red velvet CUPCAKES from Bisou are like heaven...

My cousin and her youngest son, my nephew, Kenji playing with my sister's hair. Muahahahaha.

Overall food was so-so only. Maybe because they had to cater to more people today so they have to forfeit quality for quantity. Price was surprisingly reasonable (except the cake). Regardless, I would not come back here again because... It's just not the kind of shop I'll frequent.

Malaysian Aboriginals

Ever thought of Orang Asli or Malaysian Aboriginals? Until recently, I thought Orang Asli are bumiputras such as Kadazandusuns, Iban, Bajaus, Bidayuh, but not Malays. Sometimes, I even use the terms interchangeably. My mom always gave me a weird look when I talk about my 'Orang Asli' friends from university. When I went to Taman Negara a while back, I was cleared of my misconceptions. Orang Asli are not the ethnic groups from Sabah/Sarawak. They are Orang Asli, another ethnic group on its own. How come I never knew that? Either I have studied it in Sejarah but don't remember it (Hey, who else remembered the contents of Wawasas 2020 which I tried to etch it into my mind the night before SPM paper? I don't. None of it. Conclusion: No one remembers what is mentioned in sejarah textbook.) or it is not mentioned in our history syllabus. If it is the latter, I am really pissed off because as the first settlers of peninsula Malaysia, shouldn't they provide more we...

It's December!

Stating the obvious is one way to start a blog post (as per my opinion). Of course, if it is unacceptable, please tell me. Maybe a philosophical quote would be better, preferably in Latin (Do you know Germans get to learn Latin as a second language? So cool! A German couple told us when my family were in Taman Negara). Or maybe to you, the sentence ‘It’s December!’ is worth deciphering from the philosophical point of view. Let me just tell you: There is none. I really am just stating the obvious because I have no idea what to write as the title (as always). So why am I here again? One is because I just went to a happy place! And happy events are always worth blogging down. Oh ok ok, I am also happy during the other times I am not blogging too. So what other reason made me want to blog today? Well, long story short: My lecturer said my English is not up to standard. Yup. Personally I think my English is not too bad (Definitely better than the Malaysian population). But who knows ri...

How I became a barista and how it's like working as one.

It surprises me that people still don't know what does 'barista' means. Barista is defined as ' a person whose job involves preparing and serving different types of coffee'. I was working as one for 5 months and basically, I make coffee and serve it to customers. It's my longest job to date, providing me something legal to do and earning some pocket money during my wait (still waiting for at time of writing. 9 months and counting.) (I'm putting the word 'legal' in because I'm still feeling a bit bitter about the fact that some of my friends actually took the opportunity to do illegal locum. Hey ho, that's people to you.) After my final professional examination (which was in August 2015), I told myself to enjoy my holidays but as usual, I got bored and restless and found myself a job as a research assistant. But it wasn't a satisfying job because: 1. I have to travel all the way to PJ on weekdays. 2. Get stuck in the jam for a total...
