Charmaine Yeo ☀: January 2016

Since it's the end of the month, I thought it would be a good idea for me to wrap up what has happened! Extremely thankful to God for all that has happened. So, here is a new series that I would like to start on my blog, just so that I can recall on the events that happened in that specific month :) Also, a little touch of gratefulness is what I need to keep me going! Welcome to my very first photo diary.

Here's a random picture of Tim and I when we were waiting for my brother to finish his haircut

SUKI-YA + MEEPLES

We had on outing with a few other friends at Suki-Ya (my favorite place of all time) & Meeples. Suki-Ya is basically a Japanese steamboat buffet that would cost you RM 34. For that amount of money, you get to enjoy free flow of lamb, beef, chicken, meatballs, vegetables, ICE CREAM etc. Caps locked the ice cream because who doesn't love ice cream right?! We technically spammed the meat because meat is life (;

Meeples, on the other hand, is a board game cafe which requires you to pay RM 6 an hour. You can of course play for how many hours you like. For RM 6, you get to play ANY kind of board games they have on their shelves for 60 whole minutes. I would highly recommend this place for a big group because you get to bond a lot through these board games that would give you an adrenaline rush!! I really enjoyed myself playing games that needed fast reflexes and good sabotaging skills!

Didn't get a picture with the rest though *cries*

Suki-Ya - Paradigm, Pavilion, Da Men
Meeples Address - 64-2 Jalan SS 15/4D, 47500 Subang Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia

ACCESSORIES

I apologize for my ugly nails lol

I'm actually pretty upset, wait no, VERY VERY upset that Lovisa ended their mega sale! They still have a tiny section which sold very few items at a discounted price though, but that still doesn't count :( However, I managed to buy a few accessories at a discounted price! So glad that they were sold at a decent price, if they weren't, I wouldn't even bother leaving the store with anything because everything is just too overpriced!

UOKATSU

Salt Grilled Sanma - RM 10

On the left : Mentai Rice - RM 18 each

On the right : Sashimi Ocean Trout - RM 18

Black Sesame Ice Cream - RM 9

Uokatsu may be a mainstream Instagram worthy Japanese restaurant, but I'll definitely come back another time. There are just too many choices on the menu that I need to try! Mentai rice isn't served at many Japanese restaurants, so this place is a must try for all you Japanese lovers out there :) The black sesame ice cream was very rich in flavour, but I wouldn't order it again the next time. The place is located at an odd location, so if you can, try to go with a friend who has been there before!

HONEY CREME

Comb Honey - RM 12.50

Original - RM 9.50

The ever so famous Honey Creme has finally stepped foot into Malaysia! I didn't get to try it when it first opened in Hartamas, so I figured why not just try the one that opened recently in Kota Kemuning. I would say Honey Creme is definitely better than Milkcow. To prove my point, I had Milkcow 3 days back and it wasn't as milky as the one they serve in Honey Creme. I suggest that you should try this place at least once, that is if you like soft serve ice cream :) If you're not a fan of ice cream, don't bother wasting 13 ringgit on this.

Address : Jalan Anggerik Vanilla 31/BF, Kota Kemuning, Shah Alam 40460

What would I do without these two weird fellas? :')

So, this is the end of my January photo diary! Ending this post with a picture with one of my favourite person ever :) So happy that I manage to see Nicole at a family reunion. We didn't know we were going to be there that night so we were pretty shocked to see each other!! Long story short, we have mutual relatives but we're not related by blood. I still consider her as my long lost sister though <3 Love you to the moon and back, Nic!

Cheers! :)

Ben & I decided to visit Huckleberry Food & Fare last week. I've heard good reviews about this place but I didn't manage to try their pastries as I was quite full from lunch. So, the both of us settled for some coffee and cake. Ben was exhausted so he decided to go for an iced espresso (he was still sleepy after the coffee though). I ordered a hot mocha, as you can see, the coffee art was rather disappointing. I've had better coffee in my opinion :)

We would not come back to visit this place because Ben had food poisoning the next day... We're still trying to figure out whether it was the coconut lime cake that caused him to have an upset tummy :(

Here are some pictures for you to look at! I apologise for the grainy quality... I have no idea how to work Photoshop.
