A friend from Singapore suddenly came back to KL and asked us for a catch-up session. At the same time, another friend's birthday is this weekend so we decided to coincide the dinner since it's so hard to get all of us together.
Went to Desa Park City as my friend wanted to bring her dog along, and that place is pet-friendly. This means, that even the restaurants allow pets to be next to them when dining, outside tables at least.
For dinner, we went to a Japanese restaurant called Yayoi. I ordered Salmon Ikura Don, which is raw salmon with fish roe and rice topped with some fresh cucumber, seaweed flakes, and some omelette. It comes in a set with pickled cucumbers, fresh salad, and miso soup!
This is how the set looked like, it's tasty but I wish there were more Salmon for the price
I mean, look at that! How can you not enjoy it. So fresh and tasty. They served wasabi too but it wasn't fresh wasabi so it wasn't as spicy as I would have liked
My friend had this, Beef Mabushi. We were intrigued by it's presentation and instructions that came with the meal
The recommended way(s) to enjoy the meal above. Birthday girl was like, whatever lah... whacked the food and consumed it all without following the instructions! haha
Once we were done with dinner, we noticed they had very limited choices of desserts available then my friend remembered there's a Tong Shui shop (basically means, Chinese dessert shop) upstairs and we headed there for round 2. The shop is called Lol Soon Kee Desserts 囉信記糖水甜品. I found the name very interesting, LOL!
I had Longan Tofu coz I wanted something light and refreshing
Two of my friends had this, Sweet walnut mix with sesame & peanut soup
This is bubur chacha
This is mini taro mango sago... it rhymes that I kept repeating it and my friends laughed at my "rap" hahaha
Here's a beautiful "flower" of our desserts
Esther, the one in the middle is the Birthday girl. 3 of us got to know each other from an event that we organised for a local community in 2010. Since then, we were just good friends! We need hours together to catch up because we only meet once in 4-5 months. The other two friends had to leave as they had work to go back to, unfortunately
It was a good night with good company and good food! Hope you enjoy the colors and yumminess through the photos :)
