Office Concept Cafe Smile Jan 10, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Western variety | Café | Burgers / Sandwiches | Private Party

Located at the ground floor, beside the main entrance of Park Royal One Residency, Paper + Toast is a special office concept cafe.
You can actually use it as your meeting room if you need a place to discuss on business when you don't have an office yet.
Other than this, they serve good coffee (i heard, but I never try as I can't take coffee) and sandwiches too.

The cozy environment, I actuallly don't want to share this place as I selfishly hope that it will stay quiet so that it can be my forever secret hideout. =p
Menu

Not many choices on menu but they are good in what they do.
Add RM1 with sandwich purchase

I have this as my breakfast, actually good enough to be brunch meal too.
Dine in for that pack of extra crunchy tidbits.
Italian Turkey RM15

Italian Turkey RM15

 
Top up RM1 with any purchase of sandwiches to make it a meal set.
You can choose softdrink(can)/coffee/tea/bottle juice (orange/apple). I don't recommend bottle juice as it isn't fresh fruit juice..>.<

Overall, I love this place. But it takes quite long for them to prepare your food, so be patience. There are some novel around for your to read though (if you are not rushing).

Gobo Upstairs Bar & Grill, Level 6, Traders KL

Gobo Upstairs Bar & Grill, Level 6, Traders KL

 
The restaurant name should be "Gobo Upstairs - Bar & Grill", which is located at Level 6, Traders Hotel, KLCC. Gobo Chit Chat is their buffet restaurant.
No more complimentary parking for diners unless you are hotel in-house guest.
Complimentary Truffle Butter with bread

Complimentary Truffle Butter with bread

 
Best thing for dining here is the complimentary truffles butter, together with the little bun that you can ask for more if it's not enough. (but always remember not to have too much of starter, you need to leave space for main course & dessert!)
Kobe D Rump RM105++

Kobe D Rump RM105++

 
300grams Kobe D Rump
Always order the best cut as it will definitely worth your money. We ordered it to be medium rare, which is the best for beef steak (our preference)!
We also ordered a 200grams Angus Sirloin to be medium rare but somehow it turn out to be more like medium well. Hmmmm... maybe I put it on my plate for too long and it cooked up itself (I was too busy with the side dishes I ordered, so beware, eat your main course first when it is served!)
Nolan Private Selection - T Bone Steak RM120++

Nolan Private Selection - T Bone Steak RM120++

 
This 500grams T-bone is super thick and nicely grilled. Love the sexy grill lines on it!
Norweigian Salmon Steak RM48++

Norweigian Salmon Steak RM48++

 
Other than beef, there are several seafood, lamb, vegetarian (risotto), pastas selection on menu too. not many choices though. I say we shall focus on beef when we come to Gobo!
This Salmon steak is not bad, the skin is crispy but somehow I think the chef sprinkled a bit too much of salt on it.
Mango Tart with Pepper Ice Cream

Mango Tart with Pepper Ice Cream

 
There are around 5 or 6 dessert to choose from. This is one that I must recommend, for the special sensation of pepper ice cream combine with mango tart. Yes, pepper ice cream! It's the first time I have spiciness in my ice cream!
Magic Mushroom

Magic Mushroom

 
Magic Mushroom is for those who love sweets. The dessert presentation is so cute!
The leg of the mushroom is actually something like pavlova and the top is blueberry mousse, another lovely combination!

I went to Gobo Upstairs twice in a month because I miss the truffles butter! But of course, the steak is a kill too! Too bad it is still a bit too expensive for me to dine in frequently, when is the next special occasion =p

Oh yes, you should call to make reservation before you go. Better to call earlier.
Tel: 03 2332 9888
Lunch 11.30am - 2.30pm
Dinner 6.30pm - 11pm

Best Steamboat in town! Smile Jan 04, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Chinese | Restaurant | Steamboat/Hotpot

When I think of steamboat, I always think of Happy City in Kepong.
It is nearby Kepong Carrefour, during dinner time it is always full, the best time to go is around 6-7pm.
Always full during dinner time

This is how the shop looked like one year ago.
Soup choices

Soup choices

 
The soup base menu, there are several selections but tomyam is the best! The claypot porridge is good too, not watery like other steamboat shop.
RM15.50 per pax for normal soup

I love their steamboat ingredient, they use quality ingredient, the fish balls are real fish balls, not those cheap flour balls.
Pork slices

Pork slices

 
I like meat slices when I eat steamboat. This restaurant is a non-halal restaurant. They have pork, chicken, lamb and beef slices.
Fresh seafood available - clams

Fresh seafood available - clams

 
They have fresh seafood as well. My friends love clams, it make the soup sweeter! They have different type of living fish and seafood as well.
tomyam soup base is the best!

tomyam soup base is the best!

 
Their tomyam soup base is spicy and if you can't take too spicy, I suggest you to order YinYong soup, which is a pot with half clear soup and half tomyam soup, so that you can mix up the soup to create a flavour that you can accept.
their sauces are good too!

their sauces are good too!

 
Sauce is important too when eating steamboat, not like the other steamboat shop which doesn't really care about the sauce, Happy City's sweet sauce and spicy sauce are both delicious.

I start visiting this steamboat shop since at least one year ago and till now I still visit it frequently whenever I can. You should definitely give it a try when you are in Kepong area and looking for nice food. =)

 
Recommended Dish(es):  tomyam soup,pork slices,clams
