BellyGood, Dataran Mentari, Bandar Sunway

Warning: Tidak Ditanggung Halal

Another food review session organized by Tim. This was a month ago, only now I have time to write T_T. I invited Charlie to come along as I see his Plurk that he's currently near Amcorp Mall. There were already a lot of foodies there when we reached BellyGood. 5 minutes later Nicole came in and I wave to her. Then Tim asked me, is she my guest? I told him that's Nicole, she's on the invited list in the Facebook event. That's the fun of food session like this, you'll be meeting people on your Facebook that you haven't met before. Tim then introduced me to Ev, Selena, Eu Gene, Ellie (she's in my Facebook even before I meet her, funny), and Bangsar Babe. Foodies that I've met before are Ken, Wilson and Rebecca.

While waiting for our food:

Eve, the manager of the restaurant then come to brief us on the food that we'll be eating later. BellyGood practice open kitchen concept, so you'll be able to see the juicy pork being grilled.



For starters, there's Baked Portobello Mushroom with Bacon and Cheese, Chili Munchies, Salmon Salad, and Pork Cracklings. My favourite is of course the Pork Cracklings (RM 6.50), which is pork skin cleaned and fried to crisp, very good to go with beer. The other favourite of mine is the Baked Portobello Mushroom with Bacon and Cheese (RM 12.50), pork bacon were used here, enough said.


Salmon Salad (RM 23.90)


Chili Munchies (RM 6.50)

Pork Cracklings (RM 6.50)

They serve Hoegaarden Light here. Nicole and her bf ordered it. Bangsar Babe ordered too. I was broke so didn't order beer. I found out that Bangsar Babe also write a column for The Star Metro. Hers is published every Tuesday while Nicole's Blogged Out will be publish every 1st and 3rd Saturday.





The lovely Babe. Buy The Star every Tuesday to see her face in Metro.

It's time for the main. Mixed Platter (RM 23.90), Original Grilled Pork Belly (RM 21.90), Original Grilled Pork Ribs (RM 23.90), Pork Tenderloin with Creamy Mustard Sauce (RM 26.90), Pork Tenderloin with Creamy Hot Sauce (RM 26.90), Pork Tenderloin with Creamy Brown Sauce (RM 26.90), Baby Back Ribs (RM 29.90), Sautéed Bacon Capellini (RM 17.50) and Sausage Platter (RM 26.90).

Mixed Platter is actually two signature dishes in one plate. Grilled pork belly and pork ribs served together bathed in our House Special Rib/ Belly sauce accompanied with mash and coleslaw. So, if you want to try the best of both world (sounds so Hannah Montana here), this is one dish that you must order.


Pork Tenderloin with Creamy Brown Sauce (RM 26.90)


Most of us like the house special sauce which is sweet and sourish. It goes very nicely with the grilled pork. The penne side is a bit bland though.


Original Grilled Pork Belly (RM 21.90)

Sorry for the blur pictures from here because my camera's lens starts to acting up here that leads me to have to bring it to the service center to have it fix. Lucky still under warranty.






Baby Back Ribs (RM 29.90)


Sausage Platter consists of 4 types of sausages - pork chorizo, pork oriental, and spicy Hungarian served with fries and thai chilli sauce.



Sautéed Bacon Capellini - Angel hair pasta tossed with sautéed bacon, mushrooms, chopped chilies, tomatoes, with garlic wine sauce.

Overall there's some hit and misses that night. I personally like the pork ribs and baby pork ribs. Of course, the grilled pork belly is also my favourite. As for the tenderloin, I found it too be a bit dry, maybe it's because I like fat :p


Proof that the rib is a must try here.

After filling up, it's time to take picture with the foodies there.

我会中文吗?

有人曾经问过我,我会不会中文。那我就回答,我会看还会说简单的。如果是写,那就要看是用笔还是用键盘咯。我只读过一年华文幼稚园。 我小学到中学都是在马来学校上课,只是在三年级到五年级学过几堂一年级到三年级的母语课。

我自己也不知道几时学会看中文。大概是我十二岁的时候吧,那时候开始喜欢看七龙朱漫画。看不懂的字就会去问姐姐。慢慢的我就从看漫画到学会看小说到学会看报纸。连我自己也觉得很神奇, 为何我可以看得懂那么多中文字。什么伟诗卫斯里,金庸和古龙,我大概可以看得懂八成。第一套看完的金庸作品是“书剑恩仇录“,然后就是“笑傲江湖“。

学会看中文有很多好处噢。去卡拉OK可以选唱中文歌曲,看日剧或韩剧大多是中文字幕,在中餐厅吃饭又不用看英文餐牌来点菜(总觉得中菜用英文来写是怪怪的),还有就是不会给会中文的朋友笑是香蕉人。噢,会看中文是那么辛福的事啊。

虽然我很想用中文来写部咯客部落格,但是,我还是用英文来写部咯客部落格比较快。因为我的汉语拼音不大好所以写起中文就很慢。就这篇短文就用了我大概两三个小时来写。如果是英文,给我半个钟就写完了。咳,真后愧以前没有好好学。那你说我会中文吗?

Hennessy Artistry @ The Loft

Yes. This Hennessy Artistry happened more than a month ago. I've blogged about it here. So on that night I reached the venue for the press conference, which is just below the Loft. Saw Serge there and later his guest Hitomi. I took out my camera and was about to shoot and I found out that there's no batteries in the camera. I forgot to put the batteries that was being charged back into the camera T_T. So, I'll have to borrow pictures from my fellow blogger friends.



There's no more City Hennessy Cocktail such as Miami or Shanghai. Instead there's 10 new mix such as apple, green tea, soda, ginger ale and etc. (I can't remember all lah)



The drinking starts even before the press conference. There's also nice finger food to go with the new Hennessy Mix. I was already quite high even before the event starts. In the press conference, we get to meet Starz Angels, and Caprice.


Bumped into Joyce at the press conference.



All you can drink. Hennessy Soda.



Before going to the Loft. A picture with Jamie and Ren.



With EV here.



Of course, the mature looking 租儿


Serge, me and Jack.




This is what free flow Hennessy did to Ben and I. Red face.



Lovely Jane.

I remembered I took a picture with Sarah Lian but forgot on who's camera. Sigh, never mind. Next time I'll remember to put back the batteries into the camera. A photo credit to SJ and special thanks to StephK. I say sorry first if I forgot to mention your name here because without picture I don't really remember so many. I remember Yat, Joshua, and Sidney. I saw Yee Hou and Anne too. Jess was there representing Juice Magazine.

As I was writing this, the next Hennessy Artistry is coming soon. This one is at the Zouk Phuture. The DJs are cool Lap Sap, gorgeous DJ Yasmin, VJ Spacebar and Young6IXX (American rapper). From the line up, I can already feel the great club music and hip hop theme that night.

Happening this Thursday 4th of June from 9 p.m. onwards. RSVP here.

I hope that I'll get invited again for this Hennessy Artistry event.
