I have been to Italiannies once and I love their food. During my first visit, I did not bring along my camera and that explained why I did not blog about it. The waiters were friendly and attentive. After being seated, they poured olive oil with herbs and balsamic vinegar into the plate. They will then served you a plate of freshly made bread (2 slices each of wholemeal and white bread). I love the bread. It was soft and goes well with the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Balsamic vinegar is a vinegar origina

Once in awhile we will purchase food deals from the websites. One of the pros when you purchase food deals is - you can save up to 50% or even more! Cons - be prepared to expect the unexpected ( In terms of food quality and service ) So last week, we decided to try our luck again and purchased a Mexican food deal.

It was a farewell dinner for our current Managing Director and at the same time welcoming our new Managing Director. The buffet dinner consists of desserts, seasonal fruits (such as watermelon, papaya, honeydew & pineapple), salad bar, baked potato, satay (skewered grilled meat), fish, squid, prawns, vegetables, sausages, lamb, beef, chicken wings, thai fried rice, bread and fruit rojak. Fruit rojak is a type of snack consists of cucumber, pineapple, jicama, and guava mixed with prawn paste. Rojak means mix and one of the main favourite among locals. One of my favourite dish is the black pepper steak although it's a little bit salty for me. The beef is tender, juicy and most importantly there's no gamey taste. Besides that, I love the chicken wing "percik" style, grilled prawn and baked potato. However, I don&
