Random shots of snacks I've eaten while at malls in both KK and Miri

Lucy's Kitchen

Another place I forgot to include when we were on our trip to my hometown in KK, which is Lucy's Kitchen we went to have breakfast at.

Location: Within Imago Shopping Mall, at the basement

Setting: Gives off the sort of warehouse restaurant vibes

Our order

Overall rating: 6/10

Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tarts

We were shopping at the shopping mall in my hometown when we lured by the smell of tarts from this stand called Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tarts. Seems like it's some kind of franchise, though we've never really heard of this chain before.

And oh, how wrong we were to have never heard of this, because it was an explosion of flavour the moment I took my first bite.

In fact, my first words after taking one bite was "Oh, mother of god!" It was THAT tasty.

SO gonna get it again when we go back to my hometown this year

Hailam Kopitiam

Finally a chance for new restaurants when my family went back to my hometown for the hols. First off, Hailam Kopitiam

Location: Within Imago Shopping Mall

Setting: Typical big Chinese restaurant display style, but also have a bit of a kopitiam vibe as well, though it’s more restaurant than kopitiam vibe

 

Le menu

Shots of all our orders (couldn’t remember which food is whose):

Again, it’s been a while since I last ate there, and I’ve forgotten the taste, vibe and feel, so I’m just gonna give an overall rating of how I feel based on my memory impression, which is: 6/10 

Al Fresco

On our final night at Sutera Harbour, we decided to try out the hotel's restaurant, since it's our last day there and that it was only fair we spend it using the hotel's facilities and make use of the discount member card my godma gave us. After weighing our options, we chose Al Fresco.

The wine rack, which I would love to order one to compliment whatever I was going to order but the price... TT_TT

More of le settings, with some happy-go-lucky waiters photobombing/posing for my shot

Our appetizer with some kind of vinegar-ish guacamole dip

My drink, while my hubs settled for plain cold water

My princess' kids meal, which is fish and chips

 My girl opted for eating the chips only, and had a wee bit of fish, so I helped her finish it. The fish is fresh, definitely not the kind of fish you know that it is pre-frozen the moment you tasted it, and the batter is nice and crunchy. The cherry tomatoes were great as well. Love 'em.

Forgot what was the official name for it, but this is basically my grilled salmon steak with broiled potatoes and veggies

 Tastes slightly dry a bit, but not so bad, and it's nice and fresh, and the skin is relatively crunchy. Yummy and delicious, and the vegs were pretty good too. Although it was a little odd having red pepper and peas as the topping sauce for the fish, it pretty much compliments it and tasted amazing. SO worth the money ordering this.

My hubs rack of lamb

 I dunno how the vegs taste like, and I only managed to grab a taste of the meat, but I gotta say, it's actually quite juicy and tender. LOVE the presentation and it was definitely worth the money ordering this food as well.

The price is a little dear, but it is to be expected for hotel food, but all in all, aside from a bit of distraction from our little girl, the meal was definitely satisfying and amazing. Thanks to the discount member card, we only needed to pay half the rate of the food, but either way, it was absolutely worth it. Definitely gonna sign in as members and get us that awesome member card to enjoy great food like this.
