High Tea with Candy Cheah in C.Club

Simon Says: The new Honda City is launching soon. Click here to find out the excitement in the city. Interested to book, you can give a call to Albert from Honda. His mobile is 016-350 0011.

About a month ago I got a call from Alice telling me that I've won the 98.8 FM SMS contest for high tea with one of our local diva, Candy Cheah. The venue will be in The C.Club. ^_^ I read from the food blogs that the food in The C.Club not cheap wei, and now I get to eat free and with a celebrity some more. Woot!



The C.Club, 5th & 6th floor The Pavilion, KL.




They are having a contest to win a Subaru car that day. The last one standing and having his/her palm on the car wins. Crazy, that day was so bloody humid and the sun is like bbq fire.


I was, as usual the earliest to arrive. As in any other event, I like to be on time. I'm so not Malaysian. LOL.


Just plain ice cold water in an expensive crystal glass.

I was shown to the table where Candy is sitting. It feels kind of weird because I've bought her debut album like 10 years ago and now she's sitting right in front of me. Lucky, she's started to break the ice by chatting with me first. I then relax a bit and show my thick face self. :p



Kacang putih in The C.Club. So out of place right?

Because it's high tea, so I ordered tea.


The tea I had.



Tomato bruschetta.

The bruschetta is not too bad, I had a few of those.


Deep fried shrimp with special mayonnaise sauce.

This is very yummy too. Crispy and springy.


Fried dumpling.

The fried dumpling is not too bad but the filling is a bit small in portion.



Egg sandwich in the middle and tuna croissant at the bottom.

The egg sandwich is nothing to wow about, my favourite is the tuna croissant, the croissant smell so nice and the skin is still crispy and buttery taste. Beats Delifrance's croissant for all I know.



Chicken wings only the drumstick side.

One of the fan that got invited is a vegetarian, Candy is so nice that she ordered a salad especially for her. The leaves looks like rocket lettuce and the dressing, I guess is balsamic vinegar with peach at the bottom.






Candy with her invited fans.

I found her latest CD in the goodies bag I received.



So, I ask her to sign the CD for me. Thanks Candy. The song I like most in the CD is Forgot (忘了), you can go here to listen to the sample. By the way, Candy will be launching her newest CD soon, 5 songs from this CD plus 5 new songs and a DVD with her MV. I caught one of her latest ballad in 98.8 FM, it's not bad.

Me and Candy Cheah.



Me doing the Karen Cheng in the toilet. Bloody nice design wei the toilet.

Aoyama The Green Room, Desa Sri Hartamas KL

This is a very old post that suppose to be up a few months ago. Due to my busy schedule, I overlook this and skip this post. Only when I was checking out my Facebook photo album that I remember I haven't post about this Japanese restaurant.

I was hovering alone in Desa Sri Hartamas one night and looking for place to have dinner. Then I look around and found a cozy looking Japanese restaurant call Aoyama (Green Hill) The Green Room.

It is not a very big place and the deco is not the high class type but it's what one can find in a typical Japanese restaurant like the now defunct Dontaku in Bukit Bintang. With seats near sushi bar and the normal table and seats near the wall.




This is my first time here, so I really not sure what is good. Good thing the nice lady captain help me in choosing the dishes. Funny thing is there's two dishes I ordered is that today's special, so it's not in the menu and only available seasonal.



Complimentary baby octopus as starter.

I order a very special sashimi dish as appertizer. Ninki Tai (Thinly Sliced White Fish with Foie Gras), I have a thing for Foie Gras that I can't resist.



Ninki Tai (Thinly Sliced White Fish with Foie Gras)

The combination is just out of this world. Mixing the smooth and flavourful Foie Gras with a fresh but rather bland white fish is quite a new experience for me. Both compensate each other, while the Foie Gras added more taste for the white fish, the white fish tone down the jelak feeling of the oily Foie Gras. I recommend this for you Foie Gras lover out there. By the way, this dish can be found in the menu.

Rating: 4/5

As my main, the captain recommended Grilled Cod Fish Marinated in Miso Paste to me. It's the special of the day, so you won't find it in the menu. So, I ate it with a bowl of white rice. Yes, I need rice because I'm addicted to rice. LOL.



The cod fish is grilled to perfection and the marination of miso paste is just so good. The oil from the cod fish made the meat like melted in my mouth and then the taste of the miso will fill with my mouth. It's a very good dish to go with white rice too. Too bad it's not always available in the menu.

Rating: 4.5/5




For the last dish, I want to drink some hot nice soup. The captain told me today they have a special Salmon Belly with Shitake soup. Just the right dish I need.





The soup is rather oily due to the fact that salmon belly was used. Salmon fish oil is full of Omega 3 so it's still ok. The shitake act to tone down the soup so that you won't get an oily feeling while drinking the soup. Not sure whether chicken stock or fish stock was used to make the soup but it's more on the shoyu based type of soup. Served piping out, warm my stomach, and that's good enough for me.

Rating: 3.5/5

I will surely drop by again to try out so many other dishes there in the menu. Ah, there's too many other Japanese restaurant to try out too. So many good food, so little time and money. T_T
