Kenny Rogers Roasters launches Dynasty Chicken Set and 3 delightful milkshakes!

We can all usher in the Chinese New Year in our own little ways.

While the 8 course traditional set dinners/lunch are the norm, there are numerous F & B outlets that capitalises on the festive seasons and launched their creative versions of festive offerings.

These outlets cleverly utilises the symbolic ingredients of the festival, for example cinnamon and raisin for Christmas, dates and rendang for Raya and mandarin oranges for Chinese New Year.

Kenny Roger Roasters 2012 CNY muffins is one example.

I’m a huge fan of KRR’s muffins, especially the banana one. Their mandarin orange version debuted last year and it’s back for 2012!

Kin Kin Pan Mee-6

I had the honour of initiating him to our chilli pan mee last week & he sampled both Kin Kin & Super Kitchen for lunch on the very same day. He had a blast loading his bowl with Kin Kin’s legendary dry chilli & didn’t break a sweat chowing down the whole bowl!
While he loved Kin Kin for the heat; like me he much preferred Super Kitchen’s version.
Both of us agreed that though Super Kitchen’ chilli doesn’t pack that much of a heat, it was a much better bowl of pan mee overall, in terms of the flavours from each of its’ component (the minced meat, the soup, the sauce ) & the noodles’ texture was just beautifully chewy with a bit of bite. It’s cheaper too, at RM4.80 versus Kin Kin’s RM5.80 per bowl.

Starbucks Malaysia – More food choices on its new menu!

Starbucks has got new food options on its menu! :yahoo:

I’m not fond of chain- cafes food; but most unfortunately, more often than not, (*frown*) I find myself in Starbucks for business meetings too many times a week for my liking.

Yet we can’t deny that Starbucks is an ideal meeting point. Easily recognisable, available everywhere & most importantly, there is FREE WIFI provided for convenient browsing.

Coincidentally, the Christmas season is upon us, and hence the Christmas Toffee Nut Latte and Peppermint Mocha made their appearances again. Overall feedback on the Toffee Nut Latte was “too sweet” while the the Peppermint Mocha was highly recommended from those who have tried it. Myself sipped the Mango Passion for the 1st time & immediately got hooked as it was not too sweet or sour. Very refreshing  & easy to drink.

Pork Burger – Brussels, Jaya One

I came here under the recommendation of a reliable foodie who knows her burgers.

And I came here for the burger alone as I have never remembered food at Brussels to be memorable. So one can say this was a pretty straightfoward mission; get to Brussels, get a table, get my order fired & wait to devour the burger & split out my judgement.

The other half kept himself occupied with a Leffe, while eyeing me drumming my fingers impatiently for the burger. I just couldn’t wait to satisfy my curiosity of this “moist, juiciest ever & thick porki-licious patty“, as such was the lip-smacking description communicated to me by my friend.
