Dinner at Armada Hotel PJ

On 20.12.20 I accompanied my sister-in-law to a seminar at the Armada Hotel, PJ. Basically the seminar was an introduction to internet business and I tag along to see what useful information we could get from the seminar. As I expected, most of the information there was things that I already knew about. Things like SEO, Adwords, Website buiding (duh).. etc etc.. Although it was, as I said, information that I already knew, it was kind of nice to know that I was on the right track :). Hurray for me!

Anyway, we had a light dinner at the coffee house before the seminar. Both of us had Cappuccino to make sure we stay awake that 2.5hrs (in case it was boring) and we shared a plate of “Nasi Goreng Kampung” (Fried Rice). It was quite nice actually. It had two sticks for satay (one for each of us), squid, crackers and egg. Enjoy the view :)

Stressed Spelled Backwards...

is Desserts.. how awesome!!!

TV for the Dining Area

This picture is taken in one of the rooms that we saw at The Majestic Hotel. One of the attraction here for me is the monitor mounts. How awesome would it be to have one mounted tv like that in the dining area or even in the kitchen right? As we dine, we can watch tv or better still cook along with Gordon Ramsey for instance.. lol!

Security for My Phone

I use my phone to do a multitude of function. One of them is to take photo of the food that I enjoy and post them here. I am too lazy to always bring my camera so I need a phone that has a good enough camera feature to take decent pictures. My Samsung Galaxy Note has a 8megapixel camera and it takes awesome pictures so much so that it is the only camera I use these days.

I also use my phone to tweet, to facebook and to blog so I need to always make sure it is safe from any virus, malware or spyware. I use software from the android market for now but maybe I should consider buying security software from www.softwaresecuritysolutions.com for Android security purpose. I mean my life is in my phone somewhat so it deserves the best right?

The Majestic Hotel KL Grand Opening Menu Part 2

Continuing with my post about the food served at The Majestic Hotel KL Grand opening…

Next on the menu was Cod Fish served with parsley sauce and semi dried tomato and Hainanese Chicken Chop, cracker-crumbed deep-fried chicken with garden peas, hand-cut fries in a tangy onion gravy.

Cod Fish

I was surprised that there seemed to be two main dishes and since I was already full from the fish, which was really good by the way, I could only finish half of the chicken chop. Emila, my blogging buddy, was not able to finished her either..

The Smoke House, The Majestic Hotel KL

The is a lot of  rooms that can be used in The Majestic Hotel. One of the them is The Smoke House that has their own bar, grooming room, cigar room (there a lot of cigars there.. I’m sure there are not the cheapest davidoff cigars type), private dining area with a Chef on call, screening room and a card room. Although the place is exclusive, it is very comfortable and I can just imagine gentlemen conducting and closing deals here.

The Majestic Hotel KL Grand Opening Menu

So I’ve written about The Majestic Hotel Grand Opening itself, let’s now blog about the food served that evening. I will break this post up into three parts since it was several courses ;)

Let me first say how beautifully decorated the ballroom was. I just love the table setup as you can see below.

When we arrived and seated at our table, The Classic Prawn Cocktail made of fresh shredded lettuce, chopped cucumber and spicy cocktail sauce was already waiting for us on the dining table. Yums! It was really delish!

The Classic Prawn Cocktail

This was closely followed by the Mulligatawny, a spiced peppery broth made of Indian spices and lentils. This tasted a little like “Soto” the thicker version.

Next post… Main dishes..

Not Quite Black Tie

I was invited by Emila to a “black tie” event yesterday and although I would have loved to dressed to the theme and leave my patagonia women’s better sweater home, I didn’t manage to find anything suitable at such short notice. So I did the best I can and came up with a semi suitable outfit, I guess. Luckily for us, the “media” people also didn’t dress up according to the theme as we were seated at the “media” table, we didn’t really feel that uncomfortable.

Not to self: Buy some nice and fancy stuff that I can wear to fancy event!

Will blog about the event and food, of course, in my coming post!

Cheerio…

Garrett Popcorn

Have you guys tried Garrett Popcorn?

Well, my bff, Marzie, introduce this to me when we were out on our girls day out at One Utama. She bought a pack for me, Emila and Nessa and I don’t know about the other two ladies but I truly enjoyed it to the max (thanks GP!). And because I had the one with Macadamia nuts, Azwaj enjoyed it too! Wondering now where else we can get this delish popcorn aside from One Utama.. Yums!

Cheerio…
