C'est LA viE

Definitely over eating this weekend, i never expect i would go cafe hunting so frequently for this week.

I had set up a target for myself to cut down the frequency of cafe hopping since i am saving money for travelling. 

Oh well, i thought i had not met Huey Yee for a while and asked her out for catch up, hence i went for cafe hunting at Puchong area on Friday night.

Initially i was thinking to go Le Pollidor cafe but the reviews were really bad, hence i changed my mind last minute and suggested for Porcupine Place at Setia Walk.

I saw somewhere that their breakfast was a must try but i could not trace back the website, their breakfast menu indeed looks attractive, especially with lots of pork hidden in most of the dishes.

However, in the end, we were more attracted by its Mother's day special 2 course meal, Huey Yee suggested we have that as the waiter also said that we could share the 2 course meals.

To be honest, the portion size is not enough for 2 persons tho, probably we still longing for dessert later so we wouldnt mind have this 2 course meal.

The entree is a soup dish, mainly because Huey Yee is not a fan of salad, (there's 2 choices for both entree and main) but if it was my choice, i would choose salad.

However, the choice of soup is also good because i really love the creamy tortellini soup, with the nutty chickpea in it, and lots of vege really provided a bowl of wholesome taste.

I must emphasize the tuscan sausage in the middle of the soup, it was brilliantly made with a crispy bread-coated the sausage meat in it. It was so yummy =)

Then, for the main, it was my pick - Memphis pork belly with cider juice, mashed potato, sweet corn cob, purple apple slaw and bacon crumbs. 

The pork belly was well cooked, soft and tender upon biting, and very succulent, the fatty layer was not too oily or cloyed, but i do think the sauce made with cider juice was too sweet. 

Huey Yee declined to taste the corn, so i ate the corn cob while she finished up the mashed potato. 

I love the corn cob, sweet and matched well with the sweet sauce. 

For drink, initially i planned to order a pot of tea, but the waiter recommended the signature drink - pink lemonade and basil breezer. 

They used basil leave to make the sorbet, which is really creative, but too bad i dont really like the taste., or i shall say it didnt impress me. 

Oh well, but i think their menu overall is creative and would like to visit this place again. 

After the savoury attempt, we left and moved to Bandar puteri area for dessert. Finally i come to Mangosix, this korean cafe that appeared many times in various Korean drama.

I ordered the signature Mango Tango, but to be honest, i think it was overrated and overpriced. 

I especially really dislike how I kept sipping the mango fibre and it's annoying. 

It was just a normal mango smooties drink, with cream and yogurt and some coconut flakes. Maybe sounds healthy because there seems like no extra sugar or syrup, but who knows. 

I think i can prepare this at home ==

But it was a good night to catch up with Huey Yee, good to know everything is fine on her side. 

Then today, i had another excuses for cafe hopping, because Cheryl need to pass me the bridemaid dress. 

I thought i only need to have one cafe hopping this week, but plan always change, and i took it as another chance =) 

This also marked an official red bomb attack! She not just passed me the dress, but also a wedding card, sigh ==

Ok, stop sighing, it is a good news and excitement, my besties is married soon!

We went to Stanger at 47, thanks to cheryl that still didnt mind to pay another visit as she been here just one week ago.

However, this was my first attempt here after bookmarked this place for sometime ago, and finally i drove here to taste it.

I got myself the shore to please, no longer longing for big breakfast because i think big breakfast is a bit boring and too fatty lol.

Or mybe because the big breakfast did not look appealing to me, and i was amazed by the photo of the seafood crepe combination.

Indeed a good choice, i am proud of my pick lol. 

I am surprised that the sauce is salted egg yolk because it didnt taste very eggy or buttery to me. The sauce was just right, and matched well with the tasteless crepe and seafood.

Cajun shrimps sound really challenging, not many people can handle cajun flavor well, it could be get either very tasty or yuck. 

However, stranger at 47 nailed it, and i was really sastisfied with this plate of savory. 

SO grateful that there is still a heartful cafe where focusing on creative crepe menu, thank you. Your dish really made my day.

I also had a cinnamon hot chocolate today, but so sorry to say, you guys have to put more effort on your hot chocolate. 

With my happy pallet this weekend, i am blessed with creative and good food, and delighted that there are still good cook out there in Malaysia.
