Savini Ristorante Italiano @The Intermark

-
It is an Italian indulgence at Savini Ristorante Italiano at Intermark. The restaurant itself is large, boasting a fully equipped bar, bar lounge, cigar lounge, 3 private rooms and a dining hall. It seats 80 pax and patrons will experience true fine dining with those closest to their hearts. 
Come through the entrance and you will be greeted with a cozy atmosphere exuding extravagance, reflecting the striking colour palette of each individual section of the restaurant. Take the time to walk through the establishment and you will be at awe with the imagination cascaded into every nook and corner.
No scenery to be expect from this restaurant but I love the ambiance which gave me the relaxation and calm to enjoy the food that is about to serve to me.
With me today is my dearest Serene Tan. It has been a long time not catching up with her and we had a quick one during her lunch break. She is one of the member in the Summer Singers A Capella Band (S.A.B). It is one of the potential A Capella band that you should watch out for. They are a bunch of talented and dedicated music lover whom passionate to bring the best music to their audience. You should check them out at their facebook page here. Do mark my word, they will be famous and recognized as the best A Capella band in Malaysia.
Back to the topic. They serve bread stick, normal bun bread and charcoal bread to us while waiting for the dishes to be ready. We had ourselves their set lunch. They offer 2 sets of set lunch which are a normal set lunch @RM49.00++ and Executive set lunch @RM98.00++. The normal set lunch just comes with either soup of the day or salad, main course, dessert and a cup of coffee or tea. As for the Executive lunch you will have everything including the salad and soup. The choice for Executive lunch will be slightly luxury.
Soup of the day - A delicious mushroom soup with creamy and thick mushroom taste in it. Not something you will get from their ala-carte menu. You only get it when you order from their set menu.
Mesclun Leaf Salad of Fresh Mozzarella and Feta Cheese with Diced Fruits and Balsamic Vinaigrette - Delicious salad which is best for those who are on diet and also to those who need to kick start their appetite before the main course which is done by the balsamic vinegar.
For their normal set lunch menu, you got 3 choices of main courses which are Spaghettini Bolognese Tossed with Tomato Minced Beef Ragu and Herbs, Salmon Rigatoni Alfredo Creamed Rigatoni pasta and Pan seared salmon and Italian-Seasoned Grilled Chicken Breast Served with Sautéed Vegetables and Spicy Pizzaola Sauce. What you can see from the picture above is the Salmon Rigatoni Alfredo Creamed Rigatoni pasta and Pan seared salmon. The salmon looks really small and dried up but surprisingly it taste really good. The pasta is well done with extremely smooth texture of creamy gravy. However, it will makes you easily have the queasy feeling. 
As for the main course choices under the Executive lunch set will be Cubed Black Angus Beef with mashed Truffled Potatoes, Vegetables and Ju, Baby lobster thermidor with Spaghetti Aglio Olio and Braised Lamb shank with tomato Sauce and sautéed mushrooms. What I had is the Baby Lobster Thermidor with Spaghetti Aglio Olio. The lobster is fresh and tasty but not the Aglio Olio. It is a little too salty to my liking. 
Vanilla Madagascar Creme Brulee served with Chocolate Brownie base and Raspberry Sorbet - it is a very creative way to serve an ordinary creme brulee. We got the mixture of the soft and sweet creme brulee with slight crunchy sensation from the chocolate brownie and additional sourish taste from the sorbet. The feeling is just welcoming and amazing for me. I can never get enough of it. You can order this dessert from their ala-carte menu at RM39.00++.
Overall experience was great and I will definitely revisit again for their signature food which are Cod Fish Ala Savini Cajun roasted Cod Fish with Cherry Tomatoes and Madagascan Vanilla Pot Infused Mango Salsa and Spaghettini Ala Savini Black and White Spaghettini with Seafood baked in Aluminium Foil. Not to forget their interesting gelato flavor which is made from squid ink! I wonder what does it taste like. As far as I can remember, squid ink is tasteless.

Penang famous with their local foods and that is the reason there are a lot of hawker center at Penang. One of them is at Jalan MacAlister. No name for this hawker center but the local good foods are concentrated here. A lot of hawker stall like this here. There are just too many to choose from.

Have you ever stay in a Durian Farm before? No? At Bao Sheng Durian Farm, you can do it! This 6.7 acres durian farm has been established in Balik Pulau since 1959.

Champ's Bowling Centre, Sandakan

-
Image
Not really much entertainment in Sandakan even though they are just beside the sea. No nice beach for water activities and the nearest island like Pulau Selingan and Turtle Island are about 90 minutes away. As for the town itself, basically is this bowling centre called Champ's which has a very nice and good condition bowling alley, bowling shoes and bowling bowls if to compare with bowling centres like in KL.  Not very big at all for their bowling centre which only has 12 lanes. Their shoes look so new! Here is a demonstration on how to bowl. Looks pro...I wonder how is the end result. So what do guys think? Is it a strike? They have a lounge here as well. And a cafe too! The price of the bowling is cost at RM4.80 per game per pax. We went at their most peak hours so their price basically has not much different than our KL City price. As for the bowling shoes is chargeable at RM2.00 per pax. FYI, the prices not inclusive government tax of 6%. Seriou

Skyline Luge, Sentosa

After taking the cable car from Harbourfront to Sentosa Island, Skyline Luge is what you will see when you reach there at Imbiah Lookout. Riding this can get you faster to the Siloso Beach and extremely exciting too! The price is as above and as you can see there is an express queue charges if you got bored of queuing. Luge is a very light sled where over here it is functioned by wheels instead of skate. It slides down the hill without using engines to run it. They have two types of trails which are Dragon Trail and Jungle Trail. Choose either one you prefer but if you choose more than 1 ride, you should try both! Luge is the most dangerous sports in the Winter Olympics. So it is the same goes to this. You must adhere to their warnings and instructions at all times to avoid any unwanted accidents happen which will spoiled your entire day.  The first thing to do is to get the right size of helmet. Then, you listen to the instruction on how to control the luge. Do not a

Trang An Boat Tour, Ninh Binh

-
Image
It’s known as the Ha Long Bay of the land. About 150 kilometers from the famous Vietnamese bay where hundreds of islands form a natural wonder is another equally as impressive landscape. This one, known as Trang An, is nowhere near the coast, though. The mountains are connected by rice paddies, not water. You can cycle to them, not sail. And – best of all – they are not full of foreign tourists. Such is the joy of a Trang An boat tour. Trang An Heritage Complex is a part of Ninh Binh province, it is about 100km away from Hanoi city center. If Halong holds an impressive and magnificent beauty, Trang An will be its best rival. Though smaller in size, you will be lost in a wonderland with the karst mountains, lush green forests, sparkling and crystal-clear river and the endless rice field running to the horizon. In general, the cost of entrance fees & boat trip of three routes is the same ( 200.000vnd/ person) on a shared- rowing boat (maximum 4 people/ 1 boat). You can ch

Restoran Makanan Laut Lau Heong, Bandar Baru Sentul

This is my first time dining at Sentul and glad to know this great Chinese restaurant which is known as Restoran Makanan Laut Lau Heong. This is the crowd at 6.00pm on Sunday. Crazy right? Let you see from another angle. They just own one shop lot but seems like owning an extra 4 parking space but still they are people standing and waiting for their seat including me! Curry Fish Head @RM25.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - This is their signature. You can choose a normal fish meat or a fish head like this. The curry is not really spicy at all. It contains more coconut milk taste than the curry itself. The fragrance of the curry and the coconut milk work perfectly. I can smell it before it is served. The fish heads are soft, tender, fresh and delicious. Highly recommend to everyone to try. Ginger Squid and Prawn @RM18.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 4/5 - Hardly taste the ginger but what makes me

Kedai Kopi Lotus, Kota Kinabalu

Kota Kinabalu doesn't have huge hawker center like you will see in Peninsular Malaysia or Kuching but I have to reckon that the best hawker center in Kota Kinabalu is in Kedai Kopi Lotus. Kedai Kopi Lotus themselves do serve their own food which was very terrible and beyond edible state. So do not eat anything from this restaurant. You just pick the stalls beside this restaurant. There are 4 stalls which I will introduce one by one to you but the only stall which will not be introduced is the stall which is selling Guo Tie ( a kind of dumplings) -  not my favorite. The best and the most popular stall of all is this chicken wing stall. Everyone is there lining up for them either taking away or dining there. You may need to wait for 15-20 minutes for it. However, it will be definitely worthwhile. RM2.65/pc for this chicken wing. The reason it is taste so good is because of the perfect combination of the honey and the BBQ fragrance. They blend it so well inside the fresh and

Fukuya Japanese Restaurant, Imbi

Fukuya Japanese Restaurant @Jalan Delima beside Levain Boulangerie & Patisserrie is a sister company for Fukuhara Japanese Restaurant off Jalan Ampang. I have been there both and both have given me quite a creepy feeling especially at night. The reason is lack of lighting in their main entrance.  Welcome to Fukuya Japanese Restaurant. The restaurant will be lies behind this curtain. Fukuya is a built on a bungalow land which they modified it to become a Japanese Restaurant. This is their main hall. They have west and east wing for larger size patrons or customer who request for a private room. Nicely decorated napkin. Oh, let me introduce this rare looking face in my blog, May Lynne a.k.a Ginger but she is my friend for 5 long years already. She is a food lover and a BIG eater too! The amazing part about her is she has an authentic honest facial expression when facing food. Her facial expression will spill it all about the food quality with immediate response. So

Victoria Station @Jalan Ampang

-
Image
To me, The Ship and Victoria Station are just the same. They are hardly able to be distinguished. The Ship is using ship as their restaurant concept while Victoria Station are using railway station as their restaurant design. Both of them are famous for their steak and their pricing is about the same. Sometimes I really wonder if they are brother sister company. Anyway, let's try their steak first. 2 platforms with 2 trains which you can sit inside and dine! Obviously better than dining inside our  KTM Train . This is the train at Platform 1. Yup, we are at Victoria Station everybody! Complimentary bread! Yummy! Fresh Honeydew Milk Chef Recommendation: Air Flown Ribeye Steak (Medium Raw) Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 4/5 - The price of the beef is calculated by its weight. So the price may be vary. The meat is wonderful. According to my girl since she is the one who can eat beef, the meat melting slowly in her mouth and

Restoran Ole Sayang, Melaka

There are 2 famous Nyonya restaurants in Melaka. First is the one I have blogged before which is Restoran Nyonya Makko . Second is this restaurant which is known as Restoran Ole Sayang.  You will be given a basket of rice like this to fill in the rice yourself. The charges is per head and not per basket. Puchok Keledek @RM10.00 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 3/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - I wanted to give a score of 4 for this after my first bite but after my subsequent bite the saltiness became greater and make me forget the good taste in the first bite. Ayam Pong Teh @RM12.00 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 2/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 2/5 - This is the signature dish for every Nyonya restaurant but this super hard chicken meat and salty gravy...I really do not know how to appreciate them. I rather eat the potatoes. Cincaluk Telur @RM7.00 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 1/5 Taste: 2/5 Price: 1/5 Overall: 1/5 - Looks like a common omelette, taste also
