Had a long day today with the family! Brought my mother-in-law & my mom (my mom's birthday today too) to One Utama Shopping Centre in Damansara with my husband and kids.
We came to visit my friend, Carmen, at her "Tea Depot" booth at the Malaysia Coffee Fest event happening this weekend, it was so crowded; But I got to enjoy some really unique tea tasting and also indulge in the aroma of the fragrant coffee scents surrounding me. Also, it has been years since coming to this mall; So we just had to go and have a peek at the 2 interesting attractions here, the FlowRider and the AirRider. Both of which I won't dare to try, I don't mind just watching.
Then there was this cute lil GSC popcorn mascot walking around with free popcorns to giveaway. Apparently today was GSC Cinemas, Ticket to drive 2 on-ground Finale! I didn't stay to watch the on-ground challenge to see who will WIN the Grand Prize of an X-Trail and an Almera, I went on from noon till night, as I was about to leave they just ended the event. And I found out that, this was a continuation of the Ticket to drive event held last year. It is like a 1 year long on-going campaign that led to today's finale! How did they get so lucky!! Buy tickets to watch movie also can win big! Awesome!
Many of my friends on Facebook, knows that I've been wanting to try Honzu since I saw its cute video advert. And finally today I had my first taste of it! I like the variety that they offered, it's like savoury bakeries, where you get to pick Matcha flavoured to Raspberry to Chocolates. If you Buy 5, you can get Free 1 too! I bought 3 only and kinda regretted it. Because my eldest son helped me finished it!!!! I bought Raspberry croissant, Cherry Lover croissant and Original croissant. It's like having a crunchy sweet dessert on-the-go.
And also just yesterday after reading reviews and posts from friends on Isaac Toast and Coffee which is now opened in One Utama Shopping Mall, I just had to come by and satisfy my curiousity of this famous chain from South Korea! I had to find out what's so special with this "sandwich"? It may seem quite pricey but it's good for a first-time-in-your-life-try-something-new. It's not like you're gonna eat it daily. It's a great snack to munch on. My kids love it. My husband says it's unique. My mom and MIL says it's unique and sweet.
I ordered the combo RM20, a Chicken Bacon Cheese Special with a Yuja Ade drink. The drink is citron in soda, a little bittersweet because the citron is like the child to the marriage of orange & lemon. The Chicken Bacon Cheese Special is unique because it's bread is thick and it tastes like honey buttered egg toast, similar to French toast; The chicken bacon is really yummy like bacon but over here it is "No Pork & No Lard"; The cheese is parmesan I guess, at first I thought it was Cheddar but I couldn't taste the Cheddar taste. In fact you can't really taste the cheese, you can see it in its orange hue.
What is unique is the combination! Not the chicken bacon and cheese! But it has shredded cabbages inside with sliced radish that's already pre-marinated in vinegar, and the egg has corns in it! So it makes the whole toasts naturally honey sweet and flavorful. With each bite the flavours change a little, sometimes more cabbage, sometimes with the radish, sometimes the sweet egg with corn and sometimes the buttery toast that is honey sweet. Good try! Finally I get to taste this! Overall it's good for a once in a lifetime experience! If I'm back again I won't mind trying the Kimchi Bacon Special!
