Archive for the 'Italian' Category

Located in Millennium Square PJ, Piccadilly’s is a great shop to hangout. The food is nice and the price is ok. They have like more than 200 foods and drinks listed on the menu ranging from Westerns, Italians, Indians, Chinese and of course Local delights. We have been going to Piccadilly’s for quite number of times already, but only recently took pictures of the food we ordered.

Tandori Chicken
Tandoori Chicken (RM5.00) – quarter of chicken marinated in red colored spices. Nice but nothing special about it. Served with mint sauce and some veggies.

Spicy Fried Calamari
Spicy Fried Calamari (RM9.00) – deep fried calamari served with Thais chili sauce, my girl said not as nice as the prawn fritter. As for me it doesn’t deserves a “spicy” title if it only meant to be dipped in the chili sauce.

Cream of Mushroom
Cream of Mushroom (RM3.00) – a bowl of mushroom soup that comes with a piece of toasted bread which is (I quote from my girl) “TAK SEDAP”. I don’t really know what to comments as I hate creamy soup.

Mutton Beriyani
Mutton Beriyani (RM9.90) – I ordered this to try the mutton and apparently it’s quite nice. A bowl of mutton beriyani with beriyani rice plus half of boiled egg and some veggies. I’m quite disappointed that they don’t allow us to order only the mutton as it only served as a set. Too bad I can’t have it with naan.

Baked Seafood
5. Baked Seafood (RM10.90) – my girl ordered this is and from the first scoop of it, it’s noticeable that the dish is rich with cheese. I mean REALLY RICH. It’s like you’re having pieces of seafood in cheese >.< but I wonder why didn’t they served it with (garlic) bread instead it was served with French fries and veggies.

ABC SpecialPeach Banana Split

For desserts, ABC Special (RM4.00) for my girl and Peach Banana Split (RM6.90) for me

As for the drinks my girl ordered a (so-so) Peppermint Paddy (RM7.90) and Mango Pimlico (RM4.90) – more of a dessert than a drink – for me. Sorry no images of those. Oh, and they charge RM0.50 for iced/warm water.

So all and all, the food is nice, the environment is nice and the price also nice. I would suggest this shop you to give it a try. Keep in mind that even though I mention that some of the food is not really nice, it is only based on our taste buds and well u still have more than 200 choices to choose from >.<


Sorry for the lack of updates but I’ve been busy with exams and schoolwork. Then I went to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah for a friend’s wedding. I used to stay in KK for 7 years and there is this one restaurant that I never miss to go everytime I’m in town which is Little Italy. Rach, Derek and I went to Little Italy on Sunday night to satisfy my craving to eat their sandwich.

Calzone (small) – Alla Salsiccia (RM19.90). Its basically a folded pizza. This one has lamb in a tomato based sauce

Puccia di Pollo – Chicken and Mushroom sandwich. This is what I have been craving for. (RM18.50)

Sal. Casereccia (RM32.90) – Lamb kebabs. This is really nice and juicy. I can’t rmbr what’s the full name of this dish but that’s what is written in the receipt.

Little Italy Pasta and Pizza Corner is a small corner restaurant at the heart of town near Wisma Merdeka that is a great hit – especially with foreigners. So do go early because this place is always full especially during meal times.

Little Italy Pasta and Pizza Corner,
Ground Floor, No 23,
Jalan Haji Saman,
88813 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah,
Malaysia.
