Time To Enjoy Life

Laurie Colwin said "One of the delights of life is eating with friends, second to that is talking about eating. And, for an unsurpassed double whammy, there is talking about eating while you are eating with friends"

Like Laurie Colwin said, to have a time eat together with friends or your loved ones is always the most precious time, the time that always bring you happiness no matter how. Furthermore, have a conversation with other people about food, always fun, it is interesting too, sometimes you will find a closer relationship after you realize that you have a same favourite foods, etc. And, when you get both of them, it is truly double the joy.

All about eating is always interesting. I found my interest in exploring the foods, either it is dessert or main dish. Foods that drive me to make my own blog. To be more creative in editing the photo, increase my capability in taking picture with my camera too. I found a joy in doing this, when i explore the food, i might not buy many things to be posted, and to be tried, because i know there will be another time to eat there, and there are lots of foods which i need to try too. 

This time, i want to post about something different. I am joining a blog contest. I have never been to Taiwan before. But i have heard so many times from a lot of people about Taiwan. Taiwan is really nice place, the view is so awesome, weather too. The people also friendly and helpful. Yet, what i curious the most is the foods, because i know there tons of foods that i could try if i got a chance to go there. Some Taiwanese snacks also popular in worldwide. Such as, Shihlin, Bubble Tea, and many many more. How could i say, i am a fan of bubble tea.Last time, i will buy almost every single flavor bubble tea in Chatime, crazy isn't it? But., yeah, it is shown how much i love bubble tea. 

Well, there lots of dishes that i would like to try in Taiwan, i am craving for it. Night markets will be my number one place to go when i have a chance to go there. I have read before that in Taiwan every 3 steps, you will find a snack shop, and every 5 steps you will find restaurant. Isn't it amazing?

I am joining this. So yeah, i wish i can get the chance to Taiwan through my blog.
Thanks for the support everyone.

Based on a survey conducted by Taiwan Tourism in 2012, the top attractions for inbound tourists are sights and sceneries, food and shopping. As such, the Taiwan Travel Fair will also highlight three major experiences under the theme of “Time to Enjoy Life”:

Time to Eat

When it comes to food, Taiwan has it all. Dine like royalty without paying a king’s ransom for it. From juicy seasonal fruits, sumptuous traditional Chinese dishes, healthy vegetarian dishes, icy desserts to creative tea drinks, Taiwanese cuisine makes full use of local ingredients and age-old techniques to surprise and satisfy your palate. Don’t forget the world-famous night markets, filled with the enticing aromas of delicious street food and snacks!

Time to Shop

Taiwan is a shopaholic’s dream come true, with many large shopping centres and chain department stores in all four corners of the island. Shop for anything you want, from high-quality made-in-Taiwan 3C products, to famous highland tea and handmade weavings. For the fashion lover, all kinds of affordable clothing, leather goods and branded products are at your fingertips. In Taiwan, you are sure to find just about everything you want.

Time to go on Two Wheels

These days, the LOHAS (Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability) trend is gaining popularity as people begin to be more health and eco-conscious. Taiwan is well-known for its LOHAS practices, and there is no better way to experience it than to travel along the breath-taking coastal highways by bicycle! Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature and appreciate the simple yet wonderful things in life with your loved ones.

ONCE UPON A MILKSHAKE

here come again, another food review. an outlet in Asian Avenue @ Sunway Pyramid Mall.

Have you ever heard about this one? Named Once Upon a Milk Shake. The name is so interesting isnt it. 

Before i tried this, actually i have seen this outlet before in KLCC food court, but i did not try that time.

Then after passed by this outlet few times, at the end, i tried it though. So that day i tried a glass of milkshake and a waffle with ice cream. Unfortunately , that day, a lot of ice cream's flavors were not available. Therefore, i just chose whatever left. These are some photos i took that time. 

In my opinion, the taste was okay for the milkshake, the waffle and ice cream was standard, i have tried the better one before :D. For the place, not really comfortable for a longer conversation. Better to take away the milkshake though. For price wise, i would like to say, the milkshake is a bit over price. Not worth it. For the waffle with ice cream, is okay.

Address : 

Sunway Pyramid, First Floor

Asian Avenue, F1. AV.165 & 166.

BISTRONOMY

a little throwback to my hometown, i went to Jalan Senopati, in South Jakarta, whereby, i have mentioned about Senopati before, that in these days, that area become more popular with the foods and cafes, with the nice view, ambience, and unique as well. i went there with two friends, but because we had our cakes before in Cacaote, so that we just order two dishes, to be shared by three of us. all that i can say, the foods not really have a good taste, but still okay, i just like there interior and ambience. take a look to the photos itself.

it more into a place for chill and relax, and for me better u come and visit on the evening.

Address :

Jalan Ciniru I No. 2 Kebayoran Baru Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta 12180, Indonesia +62 21 7396655

ESSENCE - SHERATON IMPERIAL

KL HOTEL

Hello there! Sorry for not posting anything this few months, i have been busy with my final internship. So i can't update my blog. Since tomorrow i will be off day, that is why the thinking to give a post tonight came up. Tonight, i will have a food review of Essence Buffet Restaurant in Sheraton Imperial KL Hotel. 

Sheraton Imperial is part of one of the biggest hotel group. It is located in Kuala Lumpur. Near Quill Mall. If you would like to drive, you can waze it or google map. But if let's say, you want to take public transport, you can take LRT to Dang Wangi, and walk a bit. The atmosphere of the hotel is very elegant, and classy. Got a big staircase in the lobby that makes the view becomes so wonderful. Psstt... For girls, i know you would like that spot to take photos :D 

So without any further talk from me, Here are some photos i have posted from my experience in Essence Buffet Restaurant.

sushi!

i didn't the sushi side. but the sushi okay la, not a lot of choices.

this part, basically you take a plate, and take the meat you want to eat. then give it to chef around that area, and he will cook it for you. taste wise, good.

got mexican food too. this was my first time though.

i like it, the combination of all ingredients was just nice.

this is the station where they will make the mexican food above.

when it comes to dessert, i always happy. i like sweet things, i like the dessert, every cake was just really looks tempting. i wish that i can have it all :)

Coffee Bean !

if i am not mistaken the below part is a mousse, this one also nice. got some other choices too for this one.

Fruit tartlets. One of my favourite.

That's all photos that i can share with you. Hope it helps you to see what kind of food they're serving, helps you to find out whether you like this kind of food or not, you will enjoy or not.

I like the foods in Essence. Not just the appearance that appeal in your eyes, but also the taste will as good as its appearance, it will satisfy your tummy. 

They also provide quite lots of choices. So, maybe you will get so busy to choose which one to choose first. Got Malay food station also but unfortunately i didn't take the photo. 

I really recommend this buffet.
