Kindori - healthy fruity Ice cream  

Posted by Shirleen in

It is the first time, Calvin the Skunk comes out with me :D



To be honest, I prefer My Gorilla :P


If you want an ice cream, but you're afraid it might be too unhealthy or maybe too expensive like Haagen Dazs' then perhaps, you should try - KINDORI.




Kindori is just newly opened in Time Square.


Calvin - choosing the fruits he wants


He is seated waiting to be served

While we wait for our order, let me tell you how it works....

First, you've to choose what fruit you want, (eg - Jackfruit, coconut, red bean, papaya, banana, watermelon, cempedak, pineapple, rock melon, strawberry, grapes, pumpkin, carrot, passion fruit, lemon, black currant, morello cherry, lychee, golden kiwi, green kiwi.....) You can choose 1 fruit or....



A combination of 2 fruits.




The thing with the combination of fruits is that they've limited choices. The reason was, if the combination is wrong, it won't taste nice, and another reason is that, for wrong combinations, the vitamins of the fruits will be 'destroyed'. (Sounded like a secret code to me LOL)

Anyway, so after choosing what fruit(s) you want, they will take a scoop of the chosen frozen fruit and blend it with frozen full cream milk. So instead of ice, it's frozen milk. It is kept under
-40 degrees (that was what the guy said, but I'm wondering if it was logical to have that temperature.) and it will be able to last for 1 year.

It tastes completely like how the chosen fruit should taste. No sugar added. The milk only gives the creamy effect.




That is my black currant choice. It's served with a stingy piece of waffle. It tasted like black currant, something different from the ordinary ice creams. It costs RM8.90 and no gov or service tax was charged. :D Yes, it is more expensive than normal ice cream, but it's healthy (or so they say)

Then, we ordered another durian flavoured but this time we want it in a cone.




Looks pretty nice to me.... They served it with the stand.




It's NICE! lol... see.. even Calvin wants to try!!


YUMMY!!.. with the cone, it's more expensive - costs about RM11.90

The Time Traveler's Wife  

Posted by Shirleen in ,


If you want the plot, you can easily get it online.. I'm just doing a review here...

I find this movie or rather the story line something different from the rest. It was a little confusing at the beginning but when you get the hang of it, you know where the story is heading towards.


A fine romance movie. Can't run much from the "same old same old", but the way in which romance builds is spectacular.

I like it when "Clare" said (along these lines) [Who would want a husband who's always disappearing....] This to me is something which we must look at. Although most of us don't suffer from genetic abnormality, but when we're in a relationship, or at least when I'm in this current relationship, I always felt my partner in a MIA mode. Not that we demand alot from a relationship, but being in a relationship means growing together. Very different from the city lives where SOME girls get married to be human incubators so long as their husband(s) are rich.

The last part was really sweet. "Henry" was shot (during one of his time travelings) by "Clare's" dad in one of his hunting trips which caused his death. The sweetest thing about this is that, Henry never tell Clare about this. I'm not sure if Henry knew who shot him because his time travels normally take a few minutes or perhaps seconds. The dying was bad in the sense that he knew he's about to die. That's the worst part about knowing his future. It's sad for me. What a pity. And yes, I love this movie a lot . . . maybe I am just lack of romance in my life and so simple movies like that touches me..... :(

Semenggoh Wildlife centre  

Posted by Shirleen in ,

Sarawak Botanical Research Centre, (Kuching) Semenggoh will be a great place to see REAL Orang Utans.








The tickets are super cheap! Only RM3.00 for adult, and RM1.50 for senior citizen, and students - yes including COLLEGE students! :D but this pricing is only for Malaysians.




Welcome



He cares!




Entering the wild life....


24 orang utans in this place!



The trail


They opened more trails last time. But now, they closed most parts because there were a few incidences where the Orang Utans attacked tourists.



Hence, the friendly reminder..



One is here! :D



Chew - chew - bite - bite...


Since only one of them came, we were ushered to the other feeding platform...



We walked for quiet a distance,




and wa la!




We were told to watch our head, and make sure we're not positioned under any orang utans because they like doing this...





and give you nice warm golden showers!!!!!


Yes, "I love swinging and hanging in the air"
and one last picture...


Thank you very much Mister....

Häagen Dazs Mooncakes  

Posted by Shirleen in ,

Mooncake festival falls on 3rd of October. Being in KL, there is nothing traditional that I did on that day.

I headed to Haagen Dazs at Lot 10 to try out their mooncakes! I'm just trying to be traditional!

And there I was, looking through the menu.


Haagen Dazs offers 4 different flavours of mooncake. But Haagen Dazs Malaysia only offers 2 - Chocolate and Vanilla.

There were 3 different combinations...



If you take a mooncake alone, it will cost you RM37.90.

If you get the sets.... they have....


Autumn Celebration
and....

Cherries' Blossom

Autumn Celebration consist of 1 jasmine tea, few pieces of peaches, 2 ice cream blossom and of course the mooncake of your choice. Whilst cherries' Blossom lacks the tea.

I chose Autumn Celebration and Vanilla for my mooncake.

Mooncakes on display


From the menu, the whole set is on the same plate, but we ordered it separately. :D
Here comes the mooncake!...


When you slice it up...


So... here it is. The white one is obviously vanilla. The yellow 'york' is actually mango flavoured ice cream. The whole thing is coated with chocolate. It's really nice. I've always enjoyed Haagen Dazs ice creams!! :D

And the second part...


The jasmine tea tasted like some ordinary tea to me actually. But I super love the presentation! :D The strawberry was super sour. The brownish thing at the side of the plate is cocoa powder.

The ice-cream blossoms were served with round chocolate piece as a "coaster".

As a whole, I think it was worth it! Taste is there although it's not very traditional of me to be having this, but it's still something different.

And finally the bill....




Exactly RM44.95. I've no idea why they use '$' instead of 'RM' HAHAH!
