My Dear KL: Let Us Feed You Project @ Thirdwave

Few months ago, I was invited to Thirdwave new menu launch testing session.So basically what I posted here is part of the new stuff in their menu.

The menu as below:

So because there's three of us that day, we ordered three main dishes with one dessert and two drinks.

We was allowed to order more desserts and drinks, but was afraid that we couldn't afford to pay it if was asked to pay (LOL) 

To be exact it was my first time attending food tasting session, so, do forgive me.

I prefer to play safe.

So here's what we ordered.

And the drinks.
Hot Premium Matcha Latte (RM 12.50), and Iced Mocha (RM13.50)
The Matcha Latte was really premium indeed. Strong taste of Matcha.

Under The Sea (RM35)
Despite the "pretty price" I would rank this dish 5 star.
Every seafood in this dish is just so fine that I wouldn't need to say anything anymore.

The Blur Island (RM29)
Honestly speaking, this dish is not my type.
Yes the ingredients used are unique, but the outcome (especially the Ajo Blanco) is too much for me to handle.

Honeyed Fish (RM 26)
This dish was just okay. Pricey from my opinion, doesn't suit the portion itself.
But probably due to the Seabass they're using.

And here's the dessert. Was very hype to try the desserts as the name of the dessert was really unique.
Was hoping that the hotcakes was in the menu, but unfortunately not.

Hey Romeo (RM 26)
I would definitely say the matcha they use is really premium indeed!
The taste is so strong. And this dessert was created indigently, using sweet, sour  yet bitter taste.
Would only taste nice if you eat all at once and not separately.
However, RM 26 is kinda over the edge.

And here's the reason why I say so.
Nice presentation, but portion was kinda off.

However, I do enjoy the tasting session.
Feel free to drop by and give them a visit. There's also other stuff in the menu, not only these.

Rimba & Rusa by Wondermilk @ Sunway Nexis, Kota Damansara

They say "Everyday is Sunday"

Rimba and Rusa by Wondermilk at Sunway Nexis, a building beside of Sunway Giza.

Just from outside, you'll get fascinates by the interior of this cafe

And this is how it look like from the inside

There also have another floor upstairs, but I wouldn't recommend to sit upstairs as there's a kid mini play section and it will be very noisy.

Plus, not many waiter & waitress will be up there unless they're there to serve the food.

Came here twice and this is what we ordered on the first visit.

Only available daily until 3pm
From top left (clockwise): Portugese Baked Egg (RM18)
Eggs Norwegian (RM26)
The middle East Connection Labneh (RM17)
Sir Benedicts (RM20)

Eggs Norwegian
Recommend this but price is pricey compare to other places.

Portugese Baked Egg
Not the typical baked egg you'll find from other cafe.
Sadly to say this doesn't suit my taste as there's too many chickpeas and its to the watery side. 

The Middle East Connection Labneh
I'll interpret here that Labneh is greek yogurt.
So if you can't accept yogurt with eggs, do not order this.

On the second time, this is what I ordered

Bello Aglio Olio (RM23) 

Eggs Breakie Bowl (RM 17)
The sause is yum!!

This is how it look like beneath the egg.
With hash browns and veggie.
(Only available until 3pm)

Pineapple Roasted Baby Chicken (RM29)
Serve with generous amount of chickpeas.

Hot cappuccino at RM11 and Orange Juice at RM13.

Overall my experience here is okay.

Ambiance is nice (Try to come on weekdays, its more quiet),

Service is good. But things will get really hectic on weekends.

It's just that there's a lot of space for improvement on food- This is my opinion, you may come and have a try to judge.

If you're on budget, come before 3pm as the breakfast side is way cheaper than the other dishes.

Price could go up to RM73 for their main dishes like beef ribs.

There's also signature carrot cake and red velvet price at RM13.

Parking here at Sunway Nexis is free until 30th September 2015.

For now there's only two cafe operating at Sunway Nexis : Rimba and Rusa and Rail Canteen.

So the parking wouldn't be a problem, for NOW.

Bandits Coffee Bar @ Bukit Damansara

With no signboard, you can locate Bandits Coffee Bar next to Wheatfields.

(WARNING: Parking is difficult to find here even in the weekend. Do not risk yourself to double park on weekdays because you'll definitely get summon)

The owner of this cafe is someone familiar to cafe hoppers; a barista from Podgy and the Banker.

Love the ceiling of this cafe.
Sorry didn't take how does it look overall.
Overall, all the table and this cafe are made from mable (Cafe hoppers definetely will love these)

There are many selection of fresh pastries here.
Even cakes!!

Typical instagrammer shot.
The top one in red plate price at RM18. Don't get confused of it with big breakfast (because I did)
The name of this food is something 'scramble eggs with ham ...."

This is the real big breakfast "Jabba the Hut" which wasn't in the menu when I visited.
Not sure if they changed the menu or not.
Don't get disappointed but this Jabba the Hut is only available on weekends only, and they've modified it.
Couldn't remember the price but if I'm not mistaken, its RM24? (Correct me if I'm wrong)

On the left: Poached Egg (RM14), On the right: French Toast (RM14)
Coffee price RM10 at 9oz.
*I would recommend the Poached Egg!! 

Overall the food is okay and affordable (not pricey unlike some other cafe), but my verdict that they will increase their price in the future perhaps as the cafe is still new.

However, there's a space to improve on their coffee; from my opinion an my other friends.

Based on my opinion, Mocha is too strong and no chocolate taste at all (however they did tell us to inform them if we need more chocolate).

** Parking seriously is a headache here, so come early.

Rendezvous Steak Garden @ Kampung Pandan

Decided to blog about this place since I couldn't find a more updated blog regarding the price of the foods & drinks.
But first, forgive my photo quality as I was in a rush to blog.

So, here's a quick look of the place. (Didn't really walk around because it was my dad's birthday)

The seats on the right side

The seats at the left side nearby the entrance

Basically I would say that this steak garden is very spacious. Wouldn't need to worry about not having place to sit (So far I haven't encounter such problem)

What I took was just a part of it. You may refer to other blogger's for their environment shots as there isn't much changes about the place.

What we ordered.

Here is the famous Escargot that people have been saying about.
Price at RM15.80 for 1/2 Dozen (6 Pieces)

Sizzling Black Pepper Chicken at RM 17.80

Fish & Chip at RM 14.80

Fruit Juice Large size at RM 12.80/RM13.80. (There's also a smaller size of juice at RM8.80).
Fondue Cheese Chicken RM 18.80

Sizzling Chicken Combo at RM 20.80

My honest review, overall everything of the food is okay. But the Fish and Chip portion was kinda small?
And also, I don't really like the cheese (Note: I'm a cheese lover), It taste quite salty for me.
But my sister and mum likes it. So different people has difference preference.

Service wasn't that bad, unlike stated in Facebook.
It's just that because the place is spacious, you need some patience to call the waiter/waitress to your table.
No service charge was implemented here. Just GST at 6%.
You may use credit card only if you overall bill exceed RM50.

The steak house is just beside Caffeinees, which is the shop before you turn in to Caffeinees.
Parking is free, and there's lot of parking lot.
Just be aware of which turning as you might missed out the entrance.

Ecole P, Damansara Uptown

It's my second time visiting Ecole P @ Damansara Uptown.

To be honest, I don't really like it during my first visit last year (2014)

However I decided to drop by because I heard that they've change the menu somewhere mid of 2014 and improved (that's what my friends says).

The thing that attracted me into this place was because of the well-played school theme, which helps reminisce the old sweet time when all of us are still in school.

View from the inside of the cafe (with 4 tables)

There's also candy/junk food selling at this section.
Not those typical stuff you can find at this era.

This is the drink menu with lots of unique names.
Use to be inconvenient for us because we got to stand at the counter looking at this to order our drink.
But now they provide us with drink menu. YEAH!

For those who smokes, and prefer natural lighting (for Instagram purpose) fret not there's an outdoor sitting.

This is how it look like from the outside, (with tables and chair of course)

So, I was sitting inside because it was hot today.

The lighting wasn't that good (Forgive me for the photo quality, tried to edit but still sigh). There was this table which is right beside the window but was taken by someone else.

These notebooks are the food and drink menu.
Utensil is inside a pencil case which is hidden in a bag (which is located by the side of the table)

Cold drinks are served in this.
While coffees will be served like those typical kopitiam coffee cup.

My typical Instagram shot (Follow me @michellectting)
Customers will also be given complimentary old school snacks, which we almost eat finish.

Baked Egg (RM 14.90)
This baked egg taste different than the usual typical ones.
There was chicken/pork  (not sure) in it, plus there's also century egg.

Fruit Ninja (RM 14.90)
The Egg Waffle with Kapati vanilla ice cream, strawberry sauce and fruits of green apple, orange and strawberry.
It's quite soggy for me, might be due to the sauce 

Overall, it could say that the food is okay. Way better than my first visit.

Food price wise is also affordable, price range not more than RM 14.90 if I'm not wrong.

Plus there's also lunch set menu.

Service charge of 5%.

Parking might be hectic if you choose to park beside the roads. Try parking at the new basement parking, price at RM 1 at first hour, RM 1.50 at every subsequent hour which I find it cheaper than other Uptown parking building.
