A glass of wine, maybe :)

posted by:

It was a hot, humid Sunday afternoon. Seriously, I couldn’t think of what else to do except my projects piled up on my desk. Hello! It’s Sunday and I am alone at home. No one to talk to, no one was on msn, not even many mybians were around in the forum. How boring my Sunday is. I walked about the house, checked out the children who were playing at the mini park downstairs, pressing the buttons on the remote control, went back to my desk to finish off some words in my lappy and finally I decided to walk to the fridge. I saw that bottle. A bottle, sealed with black crisp paper, filled with sparkling wine, soft pink in colour. Yes. That’s it! I untwisted the lock and released the stopper. Pop! I heard and I could hear fizzy sound, a perfect start for a glass of sparkling wine. I had a glass, half a glass. I could start working once again, and the taste of the wine? Do I need to say more?

Always remember, a good wine is not defined by the stars and awards it gets, but it’s how it sinks into your palate. It’s the stars that you give makes it a good one :)  Cheers!

Something to feel home

posted by:

As long and as far that I have been here, I dont know any food that can make me feel at home. I thought that Thai food was good enough, the closest one that I could get until few months ago when I saw this restaurant that serve Malaysian menu. However, it’s sad to say that Malaysian menu is served at ungodly hours between 10pm – 2am. So … sigh.

Anyway, they serve Chinese and Japanese food, which is quite a close call too

pork
Sorry this is pork

lemon chicken
I really really like this ===> lemon chicken, omg … nice until can die

Litchi

while this is totally unrelated … Cafe de Paris = Litchi … this is a champagne of France and it’s superb … real superb …

Roadhouse Grill

Restaurant: Roadhouse Grill (Rome, Italy)

Few months ago, I went to this restaurant called RoadHouse Grill in Rome, Italy. As soon as we entered, this particular waitress came up to us, greeted us with a very cheerful face. You automatically feel that you are hungry, more appetite to eat. As she lead us to our table, she gave us the menu and asked if we would like to place the order right there. We told her to give us some time. She came back a few minutes later and I decided on my food already but stuck between 3 choices of cheese. She recommended one, which I forgot. From the beginning til the very end, she was very helpful, and very cheerful. So, here comes the food.

That was the food that 4 of us ordered. No complaints and this was the nicest food with excellent service that we had throughout the time we were in Italy (5 days). Yeah, I can say that it’s fab! Worth a try. The price isn’t pricey too.
