Thank god is weekend, this week was a busy week, and i still slept late these days ==
I guess i have to be more focused on my goals and never give up!
Woke up around 7am this morning, and gone for a run at the park, glad that i am able to maintain this run routine every weekend.
Hopefully i can do well in the coming Marathon in April, the 10km route is definitely challenging for me, really have to train up myself more frequently.
After the run, i quickly got a shower and drove all the way to Bangsar, yea, for the first time =D
Tho i turned into a wrong junction again and had to pay for extra tolls, but still able to reach destination smoothly, and also luckily got a good parking lot.
Highlight of today? Meet up Cheryl!!
The last time I met her was actually August last year, then she was busy with her marriage preparation and trips to Melbourne hence we drag our monthly catch up to today!
Actually we almost met in Sep, but she was sick at last minute, so we postpone our catch up again and again.
Finally we met each other today at Botanica+ Co, apparently this restaurant and bar is quite famous lately, wow, so cool we jumped into the trend, indeed a foodie, arent we? =P
The menu was too fascinating, many varieties, from sharing platter to brunch, then to mains during lunch hour also pizza range...so hard to choose,
I really struggled to choose this time, was really tempting on hummus which i rarely find in Malaysia, but dont feel like having bread =S
Ended up I picked the Seafood Bisque Linguine, and deep in my heart also tempted to try out their halibut fish n chips, spicy shashuka and big breakfast, thinking i may come again.
My linguine was actually not bad, the seafood portion is really generous, got 3 mussels, some squids and 3 medium sized prawns.
Their in house special seafood bisque gravy was also matched the thick linguine very well.
Yeah, the linguine is quite different from others i found elsewhere, is slightly thick and perhaps mildly cooked because it was quite chewy but not too hard.
Overall i quite like it =)
Cheryl ordered the Botanica big breakfast, but she found it awful. Luckily i didnt pick that, because from the menu i also found it was overpriced tho the portions seems big.
As the breakfast come with baked beans, grilled button mushrooms, half sized of roasted tomato, turkey bacon, chicken sausage and butter toast, nothing special about the breakfast.
The chicken sausage have a very weird taste, and the button mushrooms also not really grilled well, at least now we know we should avoid this dish when we revisit this place.
I also have ordered a unique drink - rum and raisin milkshake~
The alcohol was so strong! actually not too bad, but i think next time i would get the Guiness chocolate milkshake.
Actually the food at Botanica+ Co is quite pricy, but their portion size is generous, and service was also great.
We thought we need to wait to be seated, but then the waiter approached us and asked if we fine with bar seat, of course not~
But somehow we were lucky, after seated for 10mins, there was another free table.
Happy that Cheryl is finally engaged and getting married in this June, too bad she forgot to bring the bridemaid dress today, but yeah for another catch up~
I also grateful that she advised me to not demand for good looking guys which somehow i already not doing that.
Was a good catch up today and looking forward for another meet up before her wedding =)
