TAKA.... Cafe Taka!!!

 This is the overall picture of our experience in Cafe Takahashi...
It is located in Pavilion kl along Tokyo street...

After Church me, my sister and my dar traveled all the way to KLCC to see their book store... and am kinda disappointed that i can't find the books that i wanted...
It was either out of stock or i have to book it which would take me about 2 months to receive it...

After that we walked quiet a while heading to pavilion...
it was a work out when your hungry ...

Cafe taka is just a few shops away from Suki-ya!!!
as in my previous post!!
as below... click and you can see it...

Anyway... If one is craving for Japanese fusion Burgers....
 Cafe Taka is a place you can indulge in...

Chicken burger and wages.... yummy ....
it is yummy....

My sister a nice picture of hers...

Japanese fusion of the western well known chicken burger...
their cheese is not melted... and the burger is not well stuck together....
BUT... the taste isn't that bad....

This is their sausage roll...
i actually like this... the most among the 4 types...
the sausage is yummy as it is creamy and the bun goes well with it....

as you can see the other 2 burgers are beef burgers....
i don't get whats the difference between both of them and then the beef is all soft and em..... well...
not a nice texture for meats....

4 burgers for 3 persons...
we are stuffed up...

as i say i like the sausage roll...
followed by the chicken burger...
well for the beef burger... i regretted ordering it...

as for the shop...
the atmosphere is okay.... friendly staff but confuse as well... gave us something we did not order...
and if you lucky you get to see people dressed up weirdly with thick make up...
we saw some... they walked in and all heads turned...

if you wanna dress weirdly and have some Japanese + western food....
It's a place where you can flaunt your style and have a meal.. lol...

GeTting BacK On the WaGon!!!

I am using my samsung sii to blog about today's topic...


Why i put such a title?
like in life... people go on a diet and exercise plan... people get sick and they get well again...
it is like we have been thrown out of the wagon of a healthy life style due to a whole lot of excuses or reasons...

For me i have been sick.for over a week... i don't really know why... i just assume its the weather...
 
 and after i recovered my sister was back and following was my mum and grandma's birthday...
and what does that mean??
as Asians being Asians... food is being involved... i mean seriously... you should understand...

and ya i have been over eating and lazying around which is bad.... not encouraging it ya...

but it is ok....
it is called being normal....

we fall and we get back again....
the minus point however is that such behaviours have negative effect to our bodies...
scratch marks!!!

i have them too not really obvious but it doesn't make me feel any sexier...

i am not judging you...
i am just saying it is better not to do it...
but if u have... no biggy...
we all are humans and it is normal...



now i am just sharing about me how i get my lazy bum bum back into... the kick ass working out gal again...

And i have a confession to make... i gave up using my sii to blog... it soooo tough.....  til here i had to switch to my notebook or i might throw my mobile away... its frustrating... using the small touch screen keyboard...

OK....
back to what i was saying....

Getting back in to routine...
well... what i did first was to be mentally prepared..
as people say once you set your mind to it... actions follow...
its all in the mind!!!


Next i watch work out videos...
and see what you have to do....
well that's me if you feel you don't want ...
i have this work out at the link below... you can just jump into it....
i have tried... and i think its awesome...
you can try it... even without weights... its ok...


Next is to do it!!!
you have prepared your mind and watched how people do...
now you can either follow the video with them or you can write down the work out in your own words and time yourself...
10 seconds rest... 50 seconds working out....
if you cant just do 25 times each step ...
just put aside 15 minutes... it's enough for part one of getting back on the wagon!!! :)


Here is the work out i really did....
after my long break...
try it....

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qol_3qUcvY&feature=g-like

i loved it ...
it made me sweat and feel awesome....


Don't give up...
i know it is going to be hard at first but its worth it....

Oh ya... about diet.,
.
i don't believe in fad diets....
No carbs??? soup diets??? only protein diets???
To me its all bullshit....
if your on it too long... although you get thin for a while... but when you are off the diet you will gain back the weight... sometimes even more then when you first started...
 

serious???
Sooo.... when i say i am on a diet i don't mean all that diets...
what i mean is more greens... less sugar.... less fried or oily food ...
Eat balance meals with the right portion....
decrease intake slowly... if it is too fast you will store up more fat as your body metabolism drops...


Be lean, not thin and flabby...
 
That's hot!!!

the way i am doing is one that is free and you don't need a gym to get results...
Great huh!

Matterhon Bistro (Eryn's Bday)

All thanks to Eryn and Kelvin
I am able to experience a super yummy fest here....
It is located in Johor Jaya...
seriously i did not realise this place even exist....
sorry .... it was kinda secluded...

Looks nice right? i mean the place.... like a cottage!!!
however the shops beside it is not really appeal at all...

It was a special day for Eryn it was her birthday... With the theme of sparkle... we have to come dress with stuffs that sparkles... but then... if there was a competition on who is the well dressed according to the theme.. it would be a no brainer...
Eryn would take the Crown!! lol... You'll see why in a while...

As we entered we are greeted with a long table all set....
They served us peach tea or ice lemon tea... em... forgotten it already...
this took place last month... sorry was really busy and sick...
better late then never right????

:)

I like the way the napkin is folded....
i don't know how it is done ... lol...

The above are the pictures of all of us... Late comers did not make the cut... lol...

What i think is interesting... is that... Kelvin asked us to write our Jubilee wishes.. and  after a year we shall reveal it and see whether it has come to pass...

I feel it is very thought full as an activity before eating....
And ya... can you see ... my name is printed on it... WOW!

OKOK.... lets talk about the FOOD!!!

As you can see this is a place of salad... Chicken salad!!!

Omg... i totally forgotten...
We need to pray before eating... and have to pray blessings over the Birthday Girl......

After praying we went back to our sits....
Look at my evil grin... am digging into the food....

About the salad... it was a nice starter i find it very pleasing to the pallet... presentation wise... it looks kinda messy ....

Next is escargot...
this is yummy....
everyone can just have one... :(

This is my piece...
I tried eating it really slow...
yummy...
It is french bread.... spinach... the shellfish and... cheese....
Delightful!!!

Next dish would be the Soups!!!
We have Tomato soup...
It is sourish... em... like caned tomato soup....
presentation is nice... but bit too salty... lol...

It's Dawn's soup....

How i know how it taste>???
i tried it... of cause with permission... lol....

I and my mum finished writing our wishes....

This is the pumpkin soup....
It is not as thick as to the one i am use it...
It is light and yet still flavourful...

My mum choose pumpkin soup....
Nice as would won't feel it is too filling...

What did i have????
Wild mushroom soup is my choice!!!
And Boy Boy!!! it was the best among the 3 choices....

Sooooo creamy ... full of body..... i mean the taste....

Everyone is with their soups.....
only the tomato soup gets the huge round plate/bowl... hehe...

I do not know what is wrong with the video....
