After a long day.. This is the place we had our dinner. This restaurant located at Metropolitan Square [City Bank building] in Damansara Perdana. When we step in the restaurant, no other customer, a very quiet place suit 2 of us, kind of romantica =p We ordered their New Year Eve's Menu.. which comes with a Bowl of Soup + Salad + Main Course +Dessert = Price from RM65++ to RM138++
Main Course, choice of :-
Charbroiled Aust. Chilled Wagyu /
Charbroiled N.Z Baby Lamb /
Grilled Norwegian Salmon Fillet

Ice Honey Lemon - RM6.50
[The box in Grey is my new equipment for my G10, Nissin SpeedLite Di622 ^^]


A thick and creamy Wild Mushroom soup, the tiny croutons I think is butter croissant taste crunchy and enhance the flavour of the soup.. Love it!

Salad - Mix Fruit with Cold Prawns [small portion]

Here comes the Signature dish of the night! Seriously, I'm not attracted by it self at first sight.. serve with vegetable, slices of potato [for presentation purpose, maybe..haha] and mustard, wanted to taste the original so I didn't take any sauce..

Wagyu steak served in medium, is recommended. Char-broil cooking method able to keep the steak moist and juicy - never dry. Moreover, inside was pink and the taste is superb, you will Love the tenderness and juiciness of the beef. Wagyu is also known as one of the best beef in the world [for more info, you may google/wiki about it] I cut it into small pieces and enjoy every bite! Is a Must Try when u dine in here.. 2 thumbs up!
There is a grading for Wagyu Beef and grade 9 is the maximum. The one I had was Grade 5.
Steak lovers, I bet you will crazy for this Wagyu beef ^^


Fish and Chips - RM19.00 Spot the different here with others fish and chips? Usually at others western restaurant Dory fish is used to prepare this dish, but at Maria's Cafe they used Garoupa [I never heard about it before] the meat is fresh and tender inside..Deep fried in golden and crispy outside.. Good! Erm.. their french fried is huge..


Dessert - Orange Prune Cake with dashes of caramel by it side.. taste like normal raisin fruit cake

Yvonne ^^

This cabinet is full with bottles of wine.. Price, unknown..LoL

Beverage and dessert counter.. they serve variety of delicious dessert and English favorites with high demand from customers

Cozy and warm dining restaurant with simple yet stylish interior design..

This is a separate hall with different seating..

There is no direct staircase / lift to this restaurant. You need to take lift on the right of Citibank to L3 and follow the direction then you will be able to find them. Below Maria cafe is a German restaurant.

Love it! for sure, I will back here again for other food. If you are craving for Premium Beef steak, here will be the right place for you, Try their Wagyu Beef.

We were here for tea NOT food hunt, this post will not have any food, basically just intro this cafe. A Garden Theme cafe located inside One Utama Shopping centre(New Wing, Lower ground) The decoration here was good, I like the interior and all the beautiful flower around..

Apple Lemon Tea - RM7.90; and [unlimited refill]

Assorted Petit Fours - RM6.90 [pricey for this thin slice of cake]

Garden style concept, wooden chairs and table (some are made from cane) around the cafe just like sitting down in your own garden for a cup of tea.. comfy ambience with the smell of aroma flowers around =)

Most of the decor items in this cafe are for sales.. even this little pot of plant too..

A white piano in the cafe accompany with two rain deer lighting decor for Christmas

Dim Sum, Kedai Kopi Mee Bon@Jalan Ipoh

After Dinner at T.G.I Friday's and Supper at Naili's (Sentul), here comes the Third round of the night! Total 8 of us.. We have been together since the last day of 2009 till the first day of 2010. 3am in the morning, we were here at Jalan Ipoh for Pre-breakfast, Dim Sum..haha. This shop located opposite Public Bank. I forget to write down the price of the food T.T
叉烧包 Char Siew Bao RM1.80 - One of their popular food and high demand from customers. Must Try! fluffy dough filled with juicy minced pork with little bit of fats, sweet.. Nice!


Prawn Chee Cheong Fun - Another satisfying dish..Fresh prawn, the chili is not bad.

糯米鸡 Loh Mai Kai RM3.50 - Another popular food and most customer will order..Must Try! the rice is slightly sweet, overall - Not bad.


Yu Mai 鱼卖 - Look like an ordinary huge fish ball, but it taste Great! Springy..

Dunno the name of this Dim Sum.. I'm surprise it was Egg Paste! Huge and very filing!!

I heard they don't have fry dim sum.. They are popular with steamed style.. Seem like they are operating for 24 hours 0.O This shop does not look fascinating by itself, but the crowd do play an important role to catch people attention. Operating for business more than 30 years, a historical dim sum shop!
3rd round, that night we were super full and struggling to finish all the food..LoL
