Dine in Boisdale

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Dine in Boisdale

If I have the chance to go to UK, I think I might want to go to Boisdale for a meal. It can be either at Belgravia or Bishopsgate. Wonder when will I have a chance to be there? My sister is still in UK, if she stays there long enough, I might have the chance.

Seems high end don’t you think? Oh well… Indulge in delicious food and live jazz music once in awhile won’t hurt. Besides, I’m sure the portion of the food is big enough for me to share with other dining companions. We can split the cost rather than wasting food right? That way, I can try more food too. Why not?

Hopefully I’ll have the chance to pay a visit there in the near future.

Ferrero Garden

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Ferrero Garden

Dad bought this the other day because it was on sale. Here you go…

Ferrero Garden, this box with mostly nuts in it. There’s another box with various fruits but no discount for that.

I got the following descriptions from wiki, took me quite awhile to figure which is which because the packaging is not in English! -.-” I hope I got them all named correctly because I just realized I didn’t take the photo of the foil and the chocolate together and I couldn’t remember which one it should be.

Ferrero Garden (Hazelnut) – With nutella-type centre, and a hazelnut chocolate icing cap.

Ferrero Garden (Walnut) – I have no idea how to describe this. I couldn’t find it online too, found the Italian version but did not give me the information that I need.

Ferrero Garden (Pistacchio) – With pistachio cream centre and flavouring, and pistacchio icing cap.

Ferrero Garden (Coconut) – Surrounded by coconut cream, encased in wafer coated with coconut flakes, and topped with white chocolate icing cap.
I blogged about Ferrero Collection previously and there’s also coconut in there but no photo, here’s the photo to share.

Ferrero Garden (Almond) – With almond cream centre and flavouring, and almond icing cap.

Frankly, they all tasted almost the same to me except coconut. *Shrug*

Gonna try the other box with fruits next time when it’s on offer ;p

Little Boy & Toilet Seat

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Little Boy & Toilet Seat

I ended my practicum last Friday. However, I went back on Monday and today to help out as volunteer because there was not enough hand due to some staffs taking emergency leaves.

During the practicum period, I encountered many interesting events especially those related to children. You know children always say the darndest thing or do some cute, funny or irritating acts that can either make an adult laugh or gone nuts.

Today, I saw and heard something from a 4 years old boy to a 4 years old girl. In the place I’m doing my practicum, boys and girls share the same toilet, just like how we share the toilet at home. The little boy lifted up the toilet seat and urinated. Then a little girl went in wanted to use the toilet but she couldn’t because the little boy was using it. She waited for her turn at the door.

Then I suddenly heard this, “E, I put the toilet seat down already, you can use it now.” He was putting down the toilet seat at the same time.

Honestly, I was a bit stunned with that act. As I know, for more than 2 months, I don’t think I saw or noticed such act, the boys put down the toilet seat for the girls to use. I’m not so sure he’s trained by the school to do this or from home. It doesn’t matter really, good habits have to start young be it from home or from school but home is always the first school for the children. Parents definitely play an important role. This is something we cannot deny.

This leads me to another point.

See how some couples got into argument just because of toilet seat issue. Even the little boy know when to lift or put down the toilet seat, what’s more for the adults. Then again, I don’t mean that all the men must do that, I really don’t care whether they put the toilet seat down or not, I can always do it myself if I need to. What’s the point of arguing about this petty issue right?

Anyway, I’m really impressed with what the 4 four years old boy did today. How about you? Are you impressed?

Chica.go 7 @ Tabuan Plaza

Posted on By sweet surrender 3 Comments on Chica.go 7 @ Tabuan Plaza

Went to Chica.go 7 at Tabuan Plaza last night for dinner. Second branch.


When were were there, it was empty!! Only the workers. So we took out sweet sweet time to make our order.


There’s two storeys, the second storey is very unique.

Left: The normal one.
Right: Children playground.


Left: See how different it is compare to the one at Rock Road.

Right: Another section. Different section with different mood. It felt like you’re in a nightspot except it’s not that dark.


Left: Combo Black Pepper Cow Meal (RM6.80). Personally I think it was not that bad and the size is bigger than other places but the name was funny ;p

Right: Broaster 3 Pcs Meal Mix (RM11.80), original and spicy. We were blown away by the huge piece of spicy chicken. It was HUGE! The picture does not justify it. You imagine two pieces of breast meat from KFC. That’s the size. WOW!


Left: Broaster Chicken & Chips (RM6.80).

Right: Lamb Chop (RM10.80), for local standard, it’s not bad but portion was a bit pitiful.

Overall, it’s not that bad for the original Broaster at least better than Sugarbun’s and far better than My Chicken Restaurant. I don’t quite like Sugarbun’s chicken. As for the spicy chicken, not sure how to comment on this but it’s not that bad too, just less spicy than KFC’s.
