Let’s talk about food again, it’s been a while… This time I’m showing you Green Apple Biscuits from Italy but bought in UK *LOL* It’s claimed that this is Italian specialty biscuit.

I love the box! It’s so pretty and it can be reused as box to store something or as gift box.

I don’t really like this biscuits, it doesn’t taste like what I’ve expected it to taste like hahaha… Putting too high hope on it. If you taste it carefully, you can taste a bit of green apple sourness but not that strong, very bland, overpowered by the sugar and egg taste. The taste is quite confusing, it’s like too sweet but not too sweet, don’t know how to explain. As if too much flour and egg yolks are used. Hahaha… I really don’t know how to explain the taste to you. It’s just so weird.

The ingredients used in this biscuit are wheat flour, sugar, vegetable margerine, egg yolks, green apple paste, partially skimmed milk, and natural flavourings.

They have a website for it, visit it if you want at mincarelli.com

I some what did a boo boo yesterday but anyway I made myself looked foolish and it won’t affect you in anyway, so f*** it off!

Frydays Chicken opens for business since quite sometimes ago. I’m sure not many people know about it because of the location. I didn’t realised it at first, it’s not obvious. I don’t remember how I noticed it few months back though.

It’s located at Petanak, just at the roadside but you have to pay attention to it then you can notice it, the next door is a Chinese restaurant that takes up almost the whole row of shop. If you are coming from Shell direction, it’s on right; if you are coming from Petanak market, it’s on your left.

They have promotion now. You see here is the Promo Steak(RM4.98), the vegetable is patheticly some long beans or French beans hahaha… The steak was big enough and tender, it’s sprinkled with chili powder. You can opt for original or plum.

Another promo is RM2.58, Promo Wings comes with a chicken wing, rice and some long beans or French beans :P. For small eater, this will be enough to feed you.

No pork and No tax 😉 It’s a pity that not many people know about this place. It’s really not that obvious and many people didn’t know it exists, not even my family until I told them. According to their namecard, They provide pure water, healthy oil, 100% fresh and clean environment.

I always heard of the plum flavour chicken and it’s recommended by those that went there before. I decided to ordered 5 pieces of chicken thighs as they don’t have drumstick anymore. I ordered 2 originals, 2 plums, 1 spicy but they gave me 1 original, 2 plums and 2 spicy. The 5 pieces of chicken cost RM13.46. If you go for the wings, then it’s RM10+.

At home, my dad had original, he said it tasted like bread *LOL* I have no idea at all, thats’ how he described it. Then my mom and my bro had plum, according to them, at first it was not so bad, the more you eat, the more yucky it is because it’s sweet hahaha… I have no idea also because I didn’t eat them, only tasted a bit and it’s not that bad. As for my sis and I, we had spicy ones, it’s pretty spicy if you can’t tolerate spicy food and I have nothing much to comment about it. It’s just chicken sprinkled with some spicy or plum powder. The chickens were quite tender though.

Will I go back again? Hmm… Neutral on this, yes and no. The things are pretty affordable though.

Went to Enter K this morning to sing karaoke hahaha… Sing karaoke in the morning!! :p Actually it started at 11am until 3pm. Only RM16 including lunch, a glass of drink and two types of snacks. It’s really worth it! If you have student card, then it’s only RM15 but there won’t be snacks provided.

We used the same room as the first time I was there. These were taken from inside the room. That naked statue would greet you before you go into Room 10.

Left: More rooms…
Right: Our room.

The two local snacks that were given to us. IT’S NOT FREE!!! There’s a charge of RM10!!!, I remember the first time we went, there’s no such charge at all! We were not informed about it too! I’m not happy with this! Anyway, even added with this, it’s still much cheaper than Popwave, you just have to split the cost among your friends.

Food was served at 12pm or so. I’ll just give you the common name because I didn’t manage to take photo of the menu.

Left: Doris ordered Japanese curry rice.
Right: Jimmy ordered fried bee hoon.

Left: Serene and I ordered salted fish fried rice.
Right: Our table with our drinks and food. We all had green tea.

Our group photo!!!

This time the good thing was that, the microphone last from the begining till the end. No more batteries changing episode like last time. Lots of songs to choose, the sound system was OK too, better than previously.

Beside the first complain, I have another complain. The kitchen smell came into the room. After we came out from our karaoke session, we smelt like just come out from the kitchen and our hair and clothes smelt like kitchen! The worst part was that our hair was so oily -.-” coated with oil!! Usually the smell would just go away after some times but this time we were coated with OIL and the smell just couldn’t go away! Ewww…

I’m sure we all are familiar with kuaci aka sunflower seeds.

This kind the one I’m showing here is really really addictive. This is because it’s not tasteless and it has this sweet and buttery aroma. That sweet and salty with buttery taste is just so yummy 😛 The aroma can be really strong, you can even smell it without opening the packet.

Before this buttered flavoured kuaci was introduced, all we had was original, salty or sweet type. After it’s introduced more than a decade ago, it was so popular, everyone was eating it! Until suddenly one day news reports saying that Cyclamate is used and it caused bad effect to health. It was banned, if I’m not mistaken. Here are some information about Cyclamate I got from Wiki:

Cyclamate is an artificial sweetener. Cyclamate is 30–50 times sweeter than sugar (depending on concentration; it is not a linear relationship), making it the least potent of the commercially used artificial sweeteners… In 1966, a study reported that some intestinal bacteria could desulfonate cyclamate to produce cyclohexylamine, a compound suspected to have some chronic toxicity in animals… Cyclamates appear to affect cells involved in the production of spermatozoa, the question has also been raised as to whether they may also be capable of damaging male reproductive DNA. There does not yet seem to be any direct evidence either for or against this.

It’s been years already and slowly it made a come back and gain back its popularity again. Now, the packaging claims that there’s no cyclamate in this product.

How many of you like this? Having it once in a while is really nice. Love the salty, buttery, and sweet taste of it. It’s really addictive!

At least now I’m posting something you can get locally hehehe…

This is from UK… I think… At least it came all the way back from UK to Kuching 😛 Don’t have the packaging with me that’s why I don’t have any detail that I can share.

The cookies are quite big. Once I opened the container, the aroma of the peanuts smelt so heavenly. It’s not very sweet, it’s very crunchy couple with the peanuts it’s crunchier. The taste of the cookies and the peanuts blended so well. I quite like this cookie but I only managed to eat half of the cookie and then the whole container was gone when I wanted to have it the next few days.

Sorry :p Posting so many food that you can’t get locally hehehe… I have nothing else to blog but these! Exam coming in two weeks time, study, study, study, hopefully can get A’s for both hehehe… *cross my fingers*
