My COACH Obsession!!!

Of late, I've been totally into buying COACH bags!

My very first purchase was this White small wristlet from COACH at 1st Avenue. I even dedicated a whole post on it here RM200 (after discount)

My next coach purchase was just a day later at COACH Gurney Plaza. THis time, I bought myself a Poppy Tartan Scarlet small wristlet. The colours are just soooo beautiful and appealing. Simply lovely! THis cost me RM250

Then I got myself another, not one, but 3 other COACH bags!!! My obsession continues!!!

I bought bigger and bigger pieces!

First online purchase is this crossbody bag called Coach Madison Graphic Op Art Swingpack from Reebonz.com. Here's the unveiling of the crossbody bag. Just love the packaging from the online website ~ so fancy!!



Coach Madison Graphic Op Art Swingpack

Then this huge shoulder bag was bought from Reebonz's store at G-Hotel recently.. as in yesterday!!! (8.12.2012). This is COACH Ashley Dotted Op Art Khaki Berry shoulder bag. RPP: RM1999

And now i'm waiting the delivery of my large wristlet in grey. Absolutely outrages!!!
I'm totally a COACH fan! Luxury goods I like!

All in all, i spent close to RM2000 just on COACH items! OMG!!!
 

Chicago Ribs @ Gurney Plaza ~~ Again

Thanks to ILoveDiscounts, I've been frequenting this restaurant all year long.

 THis time, I bought 5 tickets vouchers for their set meals, each costing RM28, tax included. We decided to use it all up in one go, when my brother came back recently in November.

We ordered 2 sets of half-rack BBQ pork ribs and one pizza.

This time around, the pork ribs were abit disappointing, as the portion size was to me, a bit smaller than usual. The other thing was that the ribs did not have been seasoned long enough. Although there was enough BBQ sauce to go round. Perhaps I've been here once too often...

The pizza was also disappointing in terms of colour. It was as pale as i've ever seen a pizza to look like. But, the fillings were there. It was actually packed with chicken and onions. Taste-wise, ok la.

The best dish of the night was the appetizer that I ordered (not included in the voucher) - Cheese Nachos RM14.90. Super crunchy, and cheesy and it has chicken pieces on top too!!!
Best dish ever!!

Starbucks @ The Gardens, Midvalley

Starbucks coffee has come along way in Malaysia. And just recently, when I was in KL around end of October to early November, I got to indulge at a Starbucks at The Gardens, Midvalley. This was probably the noisiest outlets I have ever been to!!! NOISIEST, I tell you!

 

For startes, yes, they are making lotsa $$$ as people come in and out of this outlet like nobody's business. It's really popular. And second, unfortunately, that day when I went in with my girlfriends, there was this one table with a super LOUD guy talking as though he owned the whole place. Or rather, he's voice was so loud, he though everyone wanted to listen to his conversations. (vomit blood!) Everyone kept looking over their shoulders just to glare at the insensitive guy, but he just kept going-on LOUDLY as he could possibly be. OMG!

Finally my girlfriends and I just left the place from having an ear ache!

 Enough of venting, I shall now divert all attention to the one piece of cake ~~ the Red velvet!

It was moist and creamy. But in the end, I guess Red Velvet is not my kinda cake. I suppose I'm more of a traditional chocolate cake - kinda girl :)

Tong Pak Fu @ Burmah Road

 Finally got to try out this new dessert shop along Burmah Road, when my brother was back in Penang.

I must say, parking along Burmah Road can be very challenging since the road is always busy with traffic and it doesn't help that new eateries are sprouting along the same road, attracting customers.

French Pecan tart & ice-cream

 We ordered French pecan tart & ice-cream and I was super stunned at how small the tart came to be. Small as in really small. So this dessert, fair to say, was really really meant for one person. THe RM9.80 is quite expensive considering the size of the tart.

 

The other dessert ordered was the Must-Try ''Tracka Durian Snow Ice'' which costs RM11.80

This was surprisingly refreshing. It tasted like real durian ice. And the other sides (jelly, corn flakes, pearls) just complimented the whole dessert. Although, again, the price seemed a little on the high side.

 

Tong Pak Fu has another outlet in a place with better parking facilities - Gurney Plaza. I haven't been to that outlet yet.

 

 

The Appartment @ KLCC

It was last month in November or rather end of October that I visited this restaurant with a friend of mine. I was in KL last month and this is what we ordered.

But first, a little peek around the interior of the restaurant. Which, by the way, is also a bar.

 

Now, on to the food. We ordered from the pasta selection. I ordered fettucine with duck and pine nuts. It was delicious! I had real pieces of duck meat and the taste from the tomato sauce was pleasently tasty. The pine nuts added an extra crunch to the whole dish.

 

 My friend is a vegetarian, so she ordered spaghetti with potatoes. This one looked & smelled yummy! She was happy with what she had.

Lemon sparkle

Drinks!

 Our total bill came to about RM81++ with the drinks and all. I think it was around the KL standard of food. Maybe if I can find the receipt I'll remember to post it up too :)

 

H&M Haul - Lot 10 @ Bukit Bintang

 H&M has finally opened their first flagship store in Malaysia!!!

And I managed to do alittle shopping myself in October when I was in KL recently. (Super excited!)

This was a picture when were first entered Pavilion KL for shopping and lunch! It was sunny and dry. THe pic below is when we finished Pavilion and headed for Lot 10 - wet wet wet!

 The weather in KL wasn't that great. It was pouring when we finished shopping at Pavilion KL and wanted to head over to Lot 10 where H&M was. As evidenced in the pic above, the rain was really really heavy and everyone despite carrying umbrellas, got wet!

We braved the rain and made our way to Lot 10. Yes, as you may have guessed, we were drenched in rain from head to toe.

At H&Ms I went crazy and tried on almost all their lovely dresses. They prices here were pretty much like the once you get at Forever21. Quality and style almost similar.

Here's what I got!

I love love love the purple blouse-dress and especially the floral one piece dress!
Just wished that they'd open one outlet here in Penang!!

Carl's Jr Burger @ Midvalley Megamall

 

Penang used to have one Carl's Jr outlet back in the 90s'. Yes, it was thaaaaaaat long ago! But like many food outlets, this couldn't survive. However they did thrive in KL where I suppose the market is bigger and there are more food lovers who can afford this burger.

 

I for one absolutely LOVE their burgers! Carl's Jr burgers are different from your average McDonalds or Burger King in that their burgers are Grilled!!!

Although the prices here are more than McDonalds or Burger King, it's worth every penny. For starters, the burger size is huge for the price they're asking for. And second, the burger is packed with fillings! Just look at my half-eaten burger... SUPER YUM!!!

 

Here's hoping they bring Carl's Jr Burgers back to Penang soon :)
