Grumpy Cyclist . TTDI - not a single soul was grumpy in there

The first thing that Edna told me the moment she came out of the washroom was, "wei, their washroom very nice leh!"

they were open til 2am for the whole ramadan month and this is the 1st time grumpy cyclist is serving dinner..

dragged the girl that just came back from UK for a western style dinner when all she is craving for is economy rice... oh well, majority wins


i really love all this nice cafes that has been popping up around KL and PJ because of them emphasized on friendly service . Which in my book, gives them extra 80 points!

Awesome lighting calls for a mandatory selfie shot . And also because it was a good hair day (night)

The interior was really nice.. i especially love the tall tables and stools and the hanging bicycle .

Ordered a latte . Don't quite like it . So bitter I can smell the bitterness from 50cm away! It has this sour, burnt smell to it . And I thought latte is supposed to be milky? Or maybe my coffee bud has been destroyed by Starbucks .

The food was really good though . Will definitely go back there for the breakfast!

Chicken Oh Chicken was awesome so awesome! the chicken was well marinated . the meat was very tender and juice . the mash potato has lil chunks of potato in it . Nyummy~~~

Beef steak was nyums! juicy and tender . The sauce was awesome!

Pesto was my absolute favorite so I couldn't resist ordering the pesto pasta when I saw it on the menu . Pesto pasta with bacon . The pasta was flavored well albeit a lil dry . One minor thing that irked me though was the fact that the pasta noodles were all broken into small pieces making it a must to eat with the help of a spoon . But no complains there.. yummy noodles are still yummy, long stringy or short stumpy...

Also, had the brown butter chocolate with pecan (i think?) brownie . The brownie was warm . Not too sweet and the pecan nut was a great addition... But it was so hard that we had to scrape off bits and pieces to eat . Impossible to fork it by pieces because it will come crumbling down...

I wanted to try their breakfast soooo much!!!
Will definitely come back some other day!
And I've been hearing so many good reviews about their breakfast menu . Why ew no serve all-day breakfast!








Red velvet seems to be a popular choice among the diners . Didnt get to try it though . Next time next time! There is always next time~

Epicuro . Uptown Damansara

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I didn't have lunch on that day and was hungry enough to eat a whole lion by the time dinner comes...

Decided on Epicuro at Uptown after looking at all the awesome pictures online .

The moment i stepped in to the cafe, I love it immediately! Love the whole black wall, yellow chairs with a tinge of grey concept

Love the chalk-like (or was it real chalk?) painting on the wall .

Love how my bag contrasted with the rest of the background .

Ordered ice cappucino . Not a coffee pro but somehow my coffee has a minty aftertaste . Not sure if it's a good sign or bad?

My pulled pork burger was awesome... the pork's saltiness was balanced out with a sunny side up . the salad was crunchy with a sweet sauce (can never remember what sauce)

ordered pumpkin soup as well... Not a big fan of pumpkin but the soup was sooooo creamy and soooooo nice that I cannot remember why I don't like pumpkin in the first place!

Pork loin linguine was not bad as well . The meat is not too 'springy' and the pasta sauce was just enough creamy . None of those 'too-jelak (creamy/rich)-till-i-wanna-puke' sauce...

Epicuro is located at Damansara Uptown near CIMB bank . Facing LDP

The Library Coffee Bar . Nexus

two of my favourite things combined make this one of my favourite cafe .

imagine having a great brunch being surrounded by books .  if that is not awesome i don't know what is..

this branch which is situated at bangsar south is fairly new,  so not much people there on a sunday afternoon .

perfect place for those looking for something heavier than normal coffee during the day as this place serves cocktails coffee .

Managed to try the caramel latte which I quite liked . smooth . not too sweet .

it is hard to find cafes which served savoury waffles in KL and the library is one of the few that has a few choices to go with their waffles . the usual ice cream waffle or grilled chicken waffle . I ordered the big breakfast which comes with scrambled eggs, sausages, hams and waffle . The waffles was a lil bit soggy for me but the ham was awesome!

Definitely don't mind coming back here again for the ambience, friendly waiters and waffles! I've been searching high and low for a place that serves savoury waffles, if you have it you win!

A new kind of water .

Fruits infused water

My new addiction . They taste awesome . And it is a good way to force myself to drink more water .

Ingredients
- mint leaves
- lemon
- strawberries

Amount of ingredient is totally up to you. If u like mint, add more mint . If you like lemon, squeeze in more .
I added one lemon, about 10 small mint leaves and 15 mini strawberries . Sliced the lemon and cut the strawberries but don't cut all the way, just halves it . Lightly chop the mint before dumping everything into the bottle . Add water and put it in the fridge overnight . Drink it during the day and add water once the bottle is 2/3 full .

Strawberries - has antioxidant nutrient and is packed with vitamin C
Lemon - aids weight loss
Mint - helps with indigestion and has a cooling effect

Ingredients

- watermelon

- lemon

Bought a quarter of watermelon and was able to make this 3 times . Add in 1/3 from that quarter of watermelon and one lemon . Stir it with a knife and put it in the fridge overnight . 

Perfect remedy for summer! 

Watermelon - prevents cardiovascular illness and is packed with all sorts of vitamin . Most importantly, taste refreshing and juicy and sweet!

I personally prefer the watermelon one cuz it's sweeter and I am not a big fan of mint . 

Will try blueberries and lemon next week . And maybe a citrus combination next .

Goodbye, my almost lover.

I thought I should start my blog by sharing my current favorite song.

On replay . All day . All night

letting something you want so much to just slip by your fingers is one of the worst feeling in the world .
i rather not know and not have than to experience yet lost it in the end .
it's like buying a Chanel bag and being told by the cashier that you have already burst your credit card limit .

others started their blog by saying hello . here i am saying goodbye on my first post .

So,
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
