Bunut Boy met Manggis Girl in 2009 and both of us love travel, good food, retail therapy & each other's company. Together we want to blog about the places we went and the food we tried.

First Pailang KL trip- Day One
This post has been in my 'draft' post for quite sometime now. I have finally decided to post it now, the trip was beginning of March. Anyway, the hotel we stayed at was Hotel Maya near KLCC. Although they kept us waiting way past the check in time, we were very happy with the upgrade that they automatically gave to us. As you can see from the pic, Bunut Boy is happy with the view of the room!~.
Regardlessly, this blog is obviously about travel and FOOD!~ The first night we decided to go to Zipangu at Shangri-La hotel Level One; not too far from our hotel. We both were super impressed by the hotel's interior.
But lets get on to the important part:
Our dinner menu:
Drinks: Glass of Savignon Blanc 1998 White wine for me
Appetizer
(for me): Raw cuttlefish with kimchee
Verdict: Right portion for me, love the tangy spiciness although poor BunutBoy seems disgusted. Tad bit salty.
Vegetable Clear soup for two
verdict:Very good soup, its very clear and simple but it seems to warm both our tummy.
Mains:
1. Tori-Galore! Chicken Wings, Chicken Meatballs, Chicken with Leeks
Verdict: very very good tori- BunutBoy Loves Tori.. and he approve of it!~~
2. Beef Teppanyaki tenderloin
Verdict: very well done and succelent. Do not need extra sauce!!
3. Grilled Cod Teppanyaki
verdict: Very Very good. Both BunutBoy and me loved it so much.Its not often we get to eat Cod and this time when we ate it, it was done perfectly.
That was what we had for dinner at Zipangu-Shangri-la hotel at KL. We finished off dinner with a cocktail each at the hotel's lounge. Me with my Lychee Martini and.. BunutBoy always try it for me to ensure I would like or dislike the cocktail.
Hereby, end the first night of BunutBoy and ManggisGirl in Kuala Lumpur. More food to come soon...
Yakitori
This yakitori place was introduced by Bunut Boy's friend Azi in Singapore. It was a place where I go all the time to just do my favourite past time: Shopping. This place is Far East Plaza at Singapore. So very often, we all just went there for shopping, shopping and shopping. Without realising there is a yakitori place up on the 3rd level: Nambantei. There are other eating places like Chicken Rice and as well as Shi Lin Taiwan Small Eat Stall at Far East.
When we go there at lunch(1st time), Dinner (second time) and lunch (third time), the place is always almost fully packed. Well, the food is indeed worth the wait. Bunut Boy told me initially before going in to take a careful look at how the chef cook the yakitori. We got nice spot just sitting at the counter in full view of the chef cooking. Well, I only finally got what he meant, the chef (japanese) is so skillful at throwing almost equal amount salt on different pieces of the yakitori~!! I was pretty amazed and stared for quite some time at him....
Beef Yakitori~~~ was the one of the best I ever had, succulent & flavorful pieces of beef. The picture shown is one of their more lunch bento set which was very worth the money. But if you love yakitori like us, you won't just stop at set lunches. We went on ordering ala carte- with chicken wings, chicken with leeks. All very nicely done.
So far, how many times we went back to Singapore, each time I said to Bunut Boy, we have to go back to this place and I added 'Perhaps an 'Asahi' Beer on me as well? :)

First Post~!
With permission from Bunut Boy, I will begin with our first post. I was thinking whether to start off the post with our latest trip which was Kuala Lumpur. However, maybe I am being a narcissist... :) I will put up a picture of one of our bento lunch. As both of us have different teaching times commitments, we have to compromise and stay back at office to have lunch. Both of us are just really glad we stop procrastinating and FINALLy gotten to making bento~...
And on the menu........
Steam Rice, with Broccoli and Black Pepper Meatballs (made by moi from scratch~!)
Verdict from Bunut Boy was 'Very Goood'
