In the afternoon, we went for lunch at Coffee Ritual located at 68, Jalan SS21/39, Damansara Utama, 47400 Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Its business hours are from 12pm to 10pm daily.



We ordered Cappucino and chamomile tea,
mushroom soup for starter,
beef rissoles
~ Italian beef rissoles with fresh tomato salsa ~
 mushroom crepes
~ mixed stir-fried mushroom crepes served with salad and Bechamel sauce ~
as main course
 and hazelnut chocolate for dessert.
Location ~ quite a distance
Food presentation ~ acceptable
Taste ~ good
Price ~ affordable
Service ~ alright... until the waitress asked for the teapot.
Are you kidding me?! Not enough teapots to serve tea? We looked around and counted four other teapots so there are only five teapots in the cafe?! I'm speechless :-|
Coming back? ~ If happened to be nearby and if there is a teapot available... lol

Till next week, happy fasting!

Vitagen Healthy Digestion Walk 2015

Last Sunday, June 14, 2015, I joined the Vitagen Healthy Digestion Walk 2015 at Tasik Persekutuan Bukit Kiara with my ex-colleagues.
We collected our T-shirts
and bibs 
on Saturday, May 30, 2015 at Sunway Pyramid.

It was raining so we started walking without warm-up activity.
Collection of goodie bag only commenced at 10am.  With nothing much to do as most of the games booths are for kids, we decided to go for breakfast. Well, I had fish ball kuey teow soup :-)
We came back in time for lucky draw but no luck :(
We collected the goodie bag after the lucky draw.
We also received a certificate of participation.
 
We went home and out for lunch later...

Dinner at Peppers Cafe, Tanahmas Hotel

Caught up with an old friend for dinner today at Peppers Cafe, Tanahmas Hotel located at Lot 277, Block 5, Jalan Kampung Nyabor, 96007 Sibu.

We had honeydew juice,
 
fuzhon style kuay teow,
Singapore style mee hoon
and dessert,
matcha cheese cake and black charcoal cheese cake. 
 
Didn't expect the portion of the noodles is so big ~ definitely not a portion for one person ~ that we can't even finish... We didn't even finish the desserts... Would've ordered one if we have known :(

Till next week, let's enjoy the rest of the break :-)

Visiting a patient at KPJ Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital

On Saturday, May 16, 2015, my ex-colleague was admitted to KPJ Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital for ligament torn after she played netball the same day.  KPJ Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital is located at 1, Jalan Memanda 9, Taman Dato Ahmad Razali, 68000 Ampang, Selangor.

We visited her last Saturday, May 23, 2015 at 1.30pm.
I bought her a basket of flowers and fruits.
Her family has been accompanying her in the ward. She just had a surgery the day before. She's been doing physiotherapy prior to the surgery and expected to rest from work for one and a half month.

Till next week, rest well and wishing for a speedy recovery!

Spa Day at Beyond Beauty

Browsing through the Groupon website, I found a 2-hour full body pampering package which consists of an hour of full body Swedish massage, 30 minutes of full body scrub and 30 minutes of hot blanket for only RM48 instead of RM470.

Full body Swedish massage (uses lavender massage oil by Beaubelle from Switzerland) relaxes and promotes blood circulations, full body scrub exfoliates dead skin cells while hot blanket detoxifies and drains toxins from the body. 

Redemption period is from February 25 to May 23, 2015. Made an appointment for 6pm on Friday, May 22, 2015 at Beyond Beauty located at No.2-18, Level 2, Scott Garden, Old Klang Road, 58000 Kuala Lumpur. 
Started immediately upon arrival at 6.45pm (I was late) and finished at 8.15pm. It felt so good after a stressful week at work.

Up next, visiting an ex-colleague at KPJ APSH...

Hiking at Bukit Gasing

Last Saturday, May 16, 2015, instead of my weekly routine of walking in the park, I went hiking with two of my colleagues at Bukit Gasing. The Bukit Gasing Forest Park covers an area of over 100 hectares.  Bukit Gasing's highest point at 160 metres gives a view of both Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya.









It was a good change of scenery. Hope to come back soon :)
Till next week, let's keep fit!

Till next week, grateful that I didn't fall sick after running in the rain...
