Food Review - Nasi Lemak Ayam Kampung Bandar Baru Bangi

Last night, I was so exhausted coming back from work that this was written all over my face. I was also thinking what should I cook for the cuties and would prefer to just prepare simple dish since I was not really in the mood to cook.
Seeing this, my better half suggested for us to eat out instead. Usually, I am against the idea of eating out except for our usual Friday night happy hour. But, I know I have very limited energy that night, and thinking I have to fold the clothes as well, I accept his idea.
Next predicament, where to eat...We drove around BBB and came across this place near the Tasik Cempaka, BBB called Nasi Lemak Ayam Kampung. The ambiance is interesting, exactly next to the lake.
I know I am supposed to be on diet but I did not have any food during the day except for a very light breakfast so I thought I can have a plate of Nasi Lemak Ayam Kampung(nie kira statement penyedap hati, padahal, no rice langsung sepatutnyer)
My better half and my princess had the same dish I ordered while my hero ordered a plate of spaghetti bolognese. My baby, who just had an early dinner at my mom's place, settled for a Pau Kaya.
Now the review :
Ambiance - 3 -Love it at first until the mosquitoes there start assaulting my feet.
Taste - 3.5 - The sambal was awesome. The rice was ok and the ayam kampung was cooked to perfection, not too crispy and not too soggy, just right
Location - 3 - great location, right in the middle of BBB
Service - 3.5 - fast and courteous.
Price - 3 - reasonable, we felt that it's the right price to charge
To those who live in BBB area, why don't give this place a try. They have variety of menu from Nasi Lemak to Western food. They also serve Char Kuey Teow but the time we went, that stall was closed. Children would love it there, but careful. Jangan bagi anak2 terjun tasik dah ler...
Selamat Menjamu Selera!

Food Review - Nasi Beriani Gam Putrajaya

Last Saturday, we wanted to watch the Dragon Boat race and exhibition in Putrajaya. We thought this will happen until night time however by the time we reach there around 6.30pm, all stalls have started packing and ready to go home. I guess we were too late and actually the event ended at 5pm. We told the cuties we will come here again.
My baby was already hungry and I don't feel like going to Alamanda. Bosan ler pulak every weekend we have been coming to Alamanda.

I suggested to my better half, why don't we take the cuties to Nasi Beriani Gam Putrajaya. We've been there once and that was without the cuties. Since it's not that far to drive, we made our way to that direction.
We ordered Nasi Beriani Gam Ayam for the girls while my better half and hero wanted the mutton beriani. My baby actually wanted Ayam Masak Merah but it was all sold out. So, she settled for Ayam Masak Beriani instead.
Here's the review :
Ambiance - 2.5 - It's like a typical stalls so nothing to shout about.

Taste - 2 - For this trip, quite dissapointing. The first trip was much better. This time the gravy tasted a bit bitter, like the spices were too much.

Location - 3 - at that time quite strategic, but parking maybe a problem

Service - 3- not bad and quite fast

Price - 2.5 - On the high side. The beriani ayam costs us RM11 each while the mutton RM13 each.

I don't think we will come here again. Don't want to be dissapointed again

Food Review - De Palma Cafe

Why were the cuties looking so restless. Did Liza wrongly put the title for this entry...Isn't it supposed to be the food review entry...
Well, this was our wedding anniversary dinner. Not really planned cause we thought to have a simple affair this year. Just dinner and presents were not made mandatory (though my better half cheated by getting me a very nice name card holder and he argued because he thought I need that for my job, ye lah bang!). We don't have a good idea where the dinner should be. Then, I remembered while driving around BBB, I saw this De Palma Cafe located in the PKNS building. If I'm not mistaken, this is part of the De Palma Hotel management.
We arrived there around 8.05pm. There were not many people around which we were so glad thinking we will not have to wait so long for the food. How wrong was thought.
Baby had mushroom soup which arrived 30 minutes after we ordered. And that my friend, is only mushroom soup.
My hero ordered buttered chicken rice and came 15 minutes after baby's order. He was starving and immediately digged in the food. He did not talk to anyone while eating, pandang kiri kanan pun tak. That's how hungry he was. Similar to my princess who ordered Chinese Fried Rice. Sampai tak sempat ambik gambar the food dah habis.

I ordered this sour sop juice and rib eye steak. Arrived over an hour after ordering. My appetite has been spoilt so did not actually enjoy the food.

And why no food for my better half? Well, he did order the ribs which did not arrive even after all of us finished our food. So, he went to the counter and calmly told the waitress to cancel the order, went on to pay for the food and we left after that.

I know him and if it's not our anniversary dinner, he would have gone beserk there and then.
The review? Tak payahlah, not worth reviewing food, tak kiralah the quality of food, and the you wait forever waiting period.
