Thought of the day



我们都以为很用力去做
就可以做好一件事
但原来我们是很用力地
去做错一件事

We all thought by working very hard 
We can do one thing very well
But in fact we are trying very hard 
To do the wrong thing

English Afternoon Tea, My Sugar Bakes

My very first English Afternoon Supper Tea!

A super random decision of visiting The Sugar Bakes, Jalan Wan Alwi when we were chatting on the topic of English Afternoon Tea!


We ordered Traditional Tea Set RM49.90 (for 2-4 pax). The set comes with a pot of tea and 3 trays/layers of desserts.

a teapot...we had lemon ginger mint which is naturally caffeine free

Bottom: Wholemeal salmon sandwiches & Cream cheese/tomato whitebread sandwiches
Center: Plain Scone, Lemon Traycake, 3 piece of crackers, one tiny plate of Blackcurrant & Cream each
Top: Granny Smith & Seedless Grape

turn around

Attracted with the colorful layers of the Rainbow cake, thus we ordered a piece to try.

Rainbow Cake RM9.90
Impressive 6 layers of colorful cake but nothing special on the taste!

After the supper, I got bloated tummy due to consumption of too much creamy and sweet desserts! Recommended the above desserts for light snacks and the more people sharing, the merrier it is and less bloated tummy you'll get!

with the girls!

Cecilia gave each of us a box of Almond Cookies. She went back from Macau for a short holiday! She is always so thoughtful to give us souvenirs~

Infamous Macau Koi Kee Almond Cookies

The cookies were yummy and fragrant with the almond bits and crunch! 

Pretty sure one box of the cookies wasn't cheap. Never mind lah cause she is earning the Macau currency! =) 

MAGGI Chicken Flavor Noodle

Exciting way to prepare Maggi Chicken Flavor Noodle! Spotted the recipe online and was eager to try my own. 

Maggi's Maggi Ayam Penang Style Hokkien & My Maggi Ayam Penang Style Hokkien

I added more tomatoes wedges and more bitter gourd, making the soup a little more bitter and sour! I added in one egg and omitted the fish ball. However, the chicken seasoning managed to cover both taste, making overall noodle soup consumable after all. And the garlic oil really adds marks and fragrant to this dish!
