Kikyo Japanese Buffet Restaurant



This japanese buffet restaurant in Bandar Puteri Puchong has been around for quite some time already but i only discovered it last month. Wanted to try it out during the last day of it's RM29.90 promotion but it was full house! T_T

Its a ala carte buffet style where you order unlimitedly from the menu. *click to enlarge*

I like the ice-cream very much especially the green tea and black sesame ice cream.
Of course you can't compare it with Haagendaz but its nice enough for me to have 4 scoops of them even when i am having a terrible cough =D and thanks to that, i suffer badly now T_T



Well, i think this is the restaurant where you can have japanese buffet that will not burn a hole in your pocket. Seriously, where can you get a japanese buffet for about Rm40 per pax?
Some of the foods over there are tasty while some are just so-so.
But i think its definitely worth the money and i will definitely go back again!

Healthy Enokitake Soup

My gum had recovered, so it's time to cook again!
Felt like going healthy today, so i cooked a pot of soup with a kinds of vitamins and minerals (i hope?). haha

What i like about this soup is that it doesnt has a fixed recipe or ingredients. Just put in whatever you feel like eating. I dont even have a name for the soup. All i can say is its unlike the normal ABC or lotus root or those common soup we have.



To keep it healthy and fatless, i use dried shrimps for flavour instead of bones. Boiled it for 10minutes and i took the shrimps out coz i dont like eating it.

Then boiled the soup with water chetsnut to give some crunchiness to the soup.



The main ingredients i've chosen for the soup are cabbage, pork, golden needle mushroom and tofu.



Boil everything in low heat for 30minutes. Add salt and shaoxing rice wine (绍兴酒) and it's done!

You can add some carrots, celery or egg? Your stomach will tell you what to put in it =D


I am planning to go down to Malacca for a food trip some time soon.

What is the food i miss most in Malacca?
Not chicken rice ball, nor cendol, nor satay celuk.
Its Mille Crepe! OMG yum yum yum. Can't wait! =D

Smooth Tofu. Life isn't so good without food.

How does it feels like going back to uni for Malaysian Studies when your classmates are having 3 months of summer break? Sucks.

How does it feels like counting down day by day for the release of result? Sucks.

How does it feels like having pimples growing all over your face and it just wouldnt disappear? Sucks.

How does it feels like having stitches on your gum after a surgery and it hurts even when you are trying to smile? Sucks to the max. I have to aviod lots of yummy food T_T

Yeah, life is pretty sucky these days.


A very simple smooth tofu dish with cheap and easily available ingredients.

1 block of smooth tofu
Sliced big onion
Some dried shrimp, blended
Soy sauce + water + sugar

 


Cut the tofu into cubes and steam or microwave it. I microwaved it for 2minutes. Discard any water.
Saute onion until soft and add in blended dried shrimp.
Continue saute until fragrant, mix in soy sauce and water in the ratio of 2:1 and a tablespoon of sugar.
Pour the sauce over tofu.

Oreo Milkshake

Exam is finally over! =D
Just a quick update before i off to pack my luggage for tomorrow's classtrip to Genting with my classmates. YAY!

So yeah, Oreo Milkshake. How much does it cost outside? super expensive. So why not make our own?

There was once i had an oreo milkshake with DD, and coincidently few days later, we were eating oreo and DD thought why not make some ice-blended milkshake out of it. So immediately we went to bought a big tub of icecream for it =D


 


Here's what you need for a serving of oreo milkshake:

2-3 scoop full of vanilla icecream ( it doesn't need to be the expensive ones, i bought mine for Rm4+ for a big tub)
3 pieces of oreo cookies
quarter cup of Milk (the cup you are using to serve, not measuring cup)
lots of ice cubes

Pour everything in a blender, switch it on, and wait for magic to happens. 


Top with some oreo crumbs or whipped cream. If you dont have any, just forget about it. They will still taste fantastic.

And how much does it cost to make your own?
2 bucks in average i suppose. Haha
