One of popular spot in town, MK Classico Caffe, located at Jalan Tabuan. Limited parking space available nearby so you can easily see customers' cars parking along the street!

Order and pay your foods and drinks at the counter and they will send it according to the table number given to you.

Iced Macchiato RM10 with table number 6 of the night

Discover their own very classical and vintage decorations of the Cafe!

Almost full house although it is a usual weekday!

Failed flatlay =(

Swedish meatballs served with baked potato, blueberry sauce and Baby Butterhead RM15

10 balls of minced beef meatballs served in rich and creamy herbs and spices gravy. The blueberry sauce does a perfect accompaniment with the meatballs! The baked potatoes tasted great too with lightly seasoned herbs! 

Swedish MeatBall is one of the best selling item in the Cafe!

Happy Anniversary!

The picture was shared on the MK Facebook page~

Spot me with the table number 6? Haha!

Returned to MK Classico Caffe again to hunt for sinful green tea cheese cake & Swedish Meat Ball

To our disappointment, both our target foods was not available/sold out at that particular night. We ended up with Buffalo Chicken Pizza.

Buffalo Chicken Pizza RM19

thin crust pizza topped with humble portion of chicken, pineapple & cheese

frankly the pizza was a bit too overpriced considering the amount of topping used and the size of the whole pizza. Should have ordered other thing else and definitely not this!

Siblings night!

A pot of hot chamomile tea (RM12) to share while waiting for our pizza to serve =)

Same seats and same pose with my first visit as other hot seats were fully occupied as usual even it was a normal weekday =(

Quick Update

Clearing & summing up all recent photos in one post!

长春青面 Chong Choon Stew Lamb Green Noodle RM7 

nice green noodle paired with delicious stew lamb! Good!

Chong Choon Char Siu Green Noodle RM4

This year TCC bought Foh San Mooncake from Ipoh (famous for their dim sums). According to the sales lady, this year was the first year selling Foh San Mooncake in Kuching.

love the purple recycled bag and tin box (2 pieces of mooncake at RM34++)

Foh San Chocolate Lotus Paste Mooncake with Walnuts

walnuts make the mouthfeel better~slight crunchy while you chew it

Foh San Berry Cranberry Mooncake with Melon Seeds

fruit subtle sweetness from berry and cranberry complemented with crunchy melon seeds blends into a great taste!

Pizza Hut delivery at work for lunch during last day of a Malay Internship Student in company. 

First time having the Cinnamon Twist and I kinda love it. Soft and fluffy roll with light cinnamon taste.

KL Style Hokkien Mee RM8++

Thick, dark mee cooked with braised/caramelized sweet sauce and fried lard pieces found in one coffee shop night time at One TJ nearby area.

First time having KL Style Hokkien Mee. The signature great taste and aroma of the mee come from the fried lard. Must share it with others as it is too greasy to eat whole dish alone.

Visited Onn Cake House Melaka Favourite @ RH Plaza

They claimed their dishes are without MSG. Thumbs up!

Malacca Chicken Rice Ball RM8

love the rice ball here than the one in Malacca...the rice portion was satisfactory for me but certainly not enough at all for guys!

Malacca Red Bean Cendol RM3

anticipated to try out this dessert as I missed the one at Malacca. Too bad the taste was kind of differ from the one I like.

A meal for two

Ayam Pongteh (RM8), Malacca Chicken Rice Ball, Plain Rice & Red Bean Cendol

the chicken portion for Ayam Pongteh was rather generous but only dry chicken breast are served!

September, a month of JOY

September, a month of joy for wedding and register of marriage (ROM)! There were at least ten (confirm more than 10) of my friends in Facebook that tied their knot with their better half in the past month. I managed to send congratulation messages to all of them through Facebook (hope I didn't missed up any of them) 

I was invited to witness one of my primary classmate, Carol's wedding ceremony. It was my first time attending church wedding (ashamed to admit, yes it my very first time attending church wedding).

A simple yet nice invitation card in softcopy with picture of bride and groom at the back =)

The morning session photograph with the newly wed couple after the church ceremony

with Lynn & Sarah

We were friends for more than 10 years? (ignore my fatty leg!)

To be frank, time flies and I had to admit I wasn't really close to most of my primary classmates. We were happened to attend some gatherings, and it ended up we would invite the same bunch of friends when there were more meet ups and yum cha session. Nevertheless, it was an honor to be invited to witness their special moments of their life although we might not as close as before.

And another primary classmate of mine, Jessica is tying the knot on this coming December =)

A very well written article written by one of my upper secondary schoolmate friend for her best friend that had her wedding reception last month. It was a touching article with full of blessings for her friend.

KFC Premium Dessert

KFC introduced Italian premium desserts in their menu. Have yet to try it until my first purchase which entitled me to purchase another premium desserts for only RM 2 after submitting online survey! All 3 desserts look so tempting and heavenly delicious!

KFC Italian Premium Desserts

Chocolate Tartufo

A kind of Italian dessert with chocolate filling, chocolate mousse and dusted with cocoa powder!

A very light and fluffy mousse flavored with chocolate! So sweet!!!

Profiteroles

Creamy Filled Choux Buns covered with chocolate sauce

3 tiny buns are never enough for me! The chocolate sauce is a little too sweet but it makes a great garnishing with the custard filled buns!

Tiramisu

An elegant Italian coffee flavored dessert with spongecake and mascarpone cheese, dusted with cocoa powder!

Among the three, I loved Tiramisu the most!  Still it is too sweet for my liking. 

Decadent desserts are dedicated for girls. Would like to devour Pofiteroles and Tiramisu again and is certainly worth for RM 2 (n.p. RM4.80).  Hope this promotion lasts!

Coffee Obsession, Jalan Tun Ahmad Zaidi Adruce

Saturday night date with my two besties! It was also a small belated birthday dinner treats for her! Went to Coffee Obsession as there were several positive ratings for the cakes, foods and environment. Indeed it was a good chatting and dining choices for Kuchingites.

Hot Chocolate RM8.90

Blueberry Cake around RM7.90 & Iced Mocha RM9.90

creamy and delicious blueberry cake with mild cheese taste.

Mushroom & Cauliflower Cheese Crumble RM8.90

mushroom and cauliflower topped with almond flakes and parmesan cheese and grated cheese

It looked healthy but high in salt content. Shouldn't have ordered this because it's just too boring to have the whole plate alone. It was salty and I would crave for more plain water after having this! I shared it with my 2 other friends but we hardly finished it!

Creamy Chicken Penne RM10.90

nice creamy sauce they have. Two thumbs up!

Croissant Sandwich RM7.90

Chicken, egg and greens served with special sauce in croissant sandwich. The coleslaw at side tasted a bit weird! It was sourish thus I decided to keep it alone at side.

Love their food portions as they turned up not too big and great for me! (but I had a bloated tummy that night, probably due to the high consumption of cheese from the mushroom & cauliflower cheese!

Chipsmore Cheese Cake In Jar

Cheese cake in jar is so yummy but way too pricey to outsource it all the time. You need only a handful of ingredients: cream cheese, crushed biscuits (oreo/chipsmore/others) and condensed milk. And also a few jars or containers to fill in.

First attempt. Not so nice but can be further improved! The layers was not pretty and consistent. I think I over-beat the cream cheese and condensed milk because it turned up to be rather thick and not so smooth to my liking.

I used 250gm cream cheese only so there's only 1 jar with 3 small cups. I guess my chipsmore cookies is too coarse! I used Chipsmore Butter Crunch for this.

My first Photobook!

Got a free 1 x 8 x 6 small landscape softcover 40 pages Photobook from LINE BCard after got the answer right for sort of Q & A quiz (in fact I forgot the details)

Chin Mei's Diary

love  .  friendship  .  memories

compiling few years of my photo collection. Chose a 4 years back old photo as cover photo (my chubby face lolx)

Love the black background. Simple and easy to match the font color with photo captions and lovely quotes.

Paid only RM 12.72 for shipping fees and I received my Photobook in good quality and condition on the 6th day after I submitted my project for printing.

Breakfast Set @ Fresh And Simple Station & Gelato Italiano Ice Cold Little Nemo @ Gelato Italiano

Sent off sis to airport early in the morning. Went to Fresh And Simple Station which is nearby my workplace for breakfast.

RM5 breakfast set with 2 soft boiled eggs, kaya butter toast (2 pieces of toasted bread and cut into 4 small pieces) and a cup of hot soy milk. 

Don't judge by its humble portion. It can last for more than 5 hours (for me!)

Love the way they served the soft boiled eggs. The top of egg shell is cleanly cracked off to ease lifting off by hand. The eggs was served with stainless steel egg cups/egg servers. Just lift off the cracked shell and pour the soft boiled egg into bowl. Add soy sauce and white pepper to serve!

Would like to try out their healthy noodle series on next visit!

Gelato Italiano Ice Cold Little Nemo 冰鲷小丑鱼 RM7.90

Tried at Gelato Italiano at Kuching Food Festival 2015. Hot fish bun with crushed peanuts in bottom, followed by a scoop of Pistachio Ice-Cream and topped with Kit Kat and chocolate chip cookie. It's a cold and hot combination. The fish bun was hot making the ice-cream melting fast! First attempt of this cold hot combination!

奶油猪仔包 Bun with butter & condensed milk

Curious why a simple bun with butter and condensed milk is named as  奶油猪仔包? I googled and this is what I get:

 奶油猪仔包，也叫奶油猪、奶油脆猪，蜕变自“奶油多士”（炼奶牛油多士），用烘烤香脆的猪仔包，切开两半，涂上牛油和炼奶便成，在香港一些茶餐厅供应.

Toasted soft and fragrant bun spread with butter and topped with condensed milk 

simple ingredients and preparation yet so tempting delicious!

RM2 per bun at Min Feng Hao 民豐號
