Zestful Eats

Was hanging out at Midvalley waiting and decided to drop by Starbucks for a drink. Ordered a caffe latte tall (small) with double shot.

You can adjust the sweetness according to your preference by adding sugar syrup. For some reason i always find that the sugar syrup in Starbucks isnt sweet enough. Milky and creamy with a strong coffee taste this is one of my gave drinks here

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.

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 (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 (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 (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.

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.

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 >.<

This blog is mainly written by me, IcedNyior, but occasionally, I get the beau to write the posts. So this will be tagged “He Eats”. Hehe…enjoy!

So after having a problem on where to eat, we decide to go to Italiannies at The Gardens. As its name, it is an Italian theme restaurant that serve Italian food (duh >.<). They have an “open air” style seating outside the restaurant and plenty of seats inside.

The restaurant setting is (as quoted from my girl) nice, romantic and high class. Oh and quiet too, nice place to have a romantic dinner but be sure to ask table further away from their kitchen.

Anyway after we seated, complimentary bread with olive oil plus balsamic vinegar was served. The bread was nice, seems that they baked it fresh daily. Was asking my girl whether do we have pay for it or not if we decide not to eat there XD

Anyway after browsing thru the menu, we decided to get:

1. For appetizer we ordered a Quattro Platter (RM25.90) – mix of fried risotto, fried zucchini, fried cheese balls and fried squid with cheese and tomato dips. For me the zucchini and squid is nice, the cheese a bit funny and the risotto is out. As for the dipping, tomato dip is rather nice compare to cheese dip.

2. For entrée we ordered Shrimp Fra Diablo (RM32.90) – fettuccini with red sauce with a lot of shrimps in it. Nice taste, but not spicy enough (yes they do served it with chili flakes but the taste don’t go together).

3. And Bianco Pizza (RM37.90) – a 12” pizza with got pepperoni,minced beef and chunks of chicken with no vege at all. As a carnivore, I find that the topping is not that satisfying (or should I said not as advertised in the menu >.<)

4. For dessert, we order Chocolate Hazelnut Cake (RM11.90) – 2 slices of brownies if you ask me. Kind of a bit too hard to be called a cake. The nicest thing about the cake is it is served with hazelnut.

5. For drinks I ordered a bottomless of Pepsi Max (RM6.80) while my girl order a Ripe Mango Shake (RM8.50) and Earl Grey Tangerine Tea (RM5.80).

All and all, it was a good place to hangout but be sure to sit away from the kitchen. Foods was so so and pricy. So I would recommend the place for the place itself but not the food >.<.
