Connected again! Halloween Dinner! Movie!

Hey people!

Yes the title does seem messy because there are three things I'll be writing about on this post hahaha!

First, I'm connected online again!!! I finally managed to get the P1Wiimax. It was kind of random. It was a regular Friday afternoon and I was going to go for a movie with LP and Sie Hui. I wasn't planning to look for the P1Wiimax guy at all but suddenly, there he was right in front of me. Of course I couldn't pass this opportunity even though it meant an extra trip to the bank which was like on the other side of the world! (Yes, I'm being over dramatic)

Anyways... After I finished getting it, Sie Hui and I were waiting for LP to arrive which he took his time... A LONG Time to reach. When he finally reached, he was busy being a tutor to all the CSC 101 students who are having exams later on. After a few hours, we left to go to Pyramid.

First we had dinner at Pasta Zanmai. Very very nice and very very expensive hahaha! Sie Hui and I extorted LP of his wallet to pay for the early dinner hahahah! Thanks LP! They took me out that Friday to have an early birthday celebration hahah!

After that we went for the movies. We watched "The Time Traveller's Wife" which was so so so good and romantic and sad! Loved it lots. Sie Hui and LP ended up in tears at the end. I almost cried, but it wasn't strong enough to break me to tears hahaha!

LP then sent me home along with Sie Hui. He gave me two of his bags filled with textbooks and told me I could keep them including the bags. Thanks again LP!

And that was Friday hahaha! Fast forward to today! Halloween night!

Nothing much to say about today other than the Halloween birthday dinner my family took me for. We went to the Manhattan Fish Market for dinner. It was quite nice, not bad but the Halloween special wasn't really my cup of tea.

That's all there is to say for now hahahha! My birthday will officially be in 2 more hours hahahah! So far my plans for tomorrow is just going to the movies with Sie Hui and later have dinner. Everyone else is busy tomorrow I think. Tell all of you more about it tomorrow night hahah! Till then!

Fig & Olives at Sunway Pyramid

Restaurant Review Time!

It's that time of the week again! Time for me to review some stuffs that I can't really do on the INTI Insider because of all the sensorship the management of ICSJ gave me. Yes!!! Time for an eye scorching review of things you like, things you hate, things you don't even know about! This time, I'll be giving a review to the restaurant Fig & Olives, located at Sunway Pyramid.
I went there with Bentan, Sie Hui, and Susan to eat dinner because Tarbush was already full at the time. We all decided to eat at Fig & Olive at the recommendation of the information's desk. When we first got there, it looked so empty and we were wondering that if it's empty because the food wasn't good or what. Boy our questions were answered fast. The service there was kind of horrible. The waiters weren't exactly easy to call on. But they do give a service with a smile, even if they are ignorant towards their customers.

Next, the choices of the food. The food wasn't exactly spread out in variety. It was more focused on western food. Another thing I would like to complain is the menu. Their descriptions of what they have are horrible. Some don't even have descriptions. Like their specialty drinks. They just put the name of the drink and the prices which ranged from RM9.50-RM10.00 without even a description of what the drink really is as they changed the names of the drinks to their liking. We had to ask the waiter to know what we were ordering for our throats to hydrate on.

The food portion, I can't really complain on it much. It was quite big even if the prices are a little bit expensive. I'd say it's worth it as the food portion is enough to stuff you full. Not to mention that it tastes quite nice as well. But I would like to complain on their Sicilian Tuna Penne was that it wasn't spicy enough. I tried it with one bite from Sie Hui and I could tell straight away that it didn't feel spicy at all. It felt more like tomato ketchup from a bottle than a homemade chilli sauce.

Besides that, the atmosphere was nice I guess. But it can't win as a romantic date spot as there are no secluded or quiet tables around. More towards friends gathering and family lunch/dinner. Overall I think I'll give it a rating of 6 out of 10.
