I’m sure T.G.I Friday is no stranger to many of you. It’s famous for fresh food and mouthwatering American classics, from appetizers perfect for sharing, to memorable burgers and delicious desserts. Always wanted to try out this place in KL or in Penang but never got the chance.

Finally had the chance to dine in T.G.I Friday during my previous trip. Saw it at 1 Utama and decided to have dinner there.

Green Apple Slush(RM8.90), mixture of green apple and lemon-lime soda.

Texas Ribeye and Cajun Fried Shrimp(RM54.90), generous 10 oz. Australian chilled air flown grain-fed ribeye topped with a fresh spicy tomato pico de gallo paired with crispy Cajun fried shrimp served with BBQ sauce, Cheedar mashed potatoes and grilled corn on the cob.

The food portion was quite big. It’s better to share with a friend or two if you are an average or small eater.

Ever heard of Donushi by Big Apple Donuts & Coffee?

Sounds interesting right? Bought a box few days back to try. This is the box for 28 Donushi, RM28. If you want smaller box, then it’s RM23 for 18 Donushi.

DONASHI™, donuts dressed like sushi, with new and out of this world flavours. Every piece is cream filled wall to wall for that rich and delighting experience everyone deserves.

These extremely sushi-licious donuts will be available tomorrow at all Big Apple Donuts & Coffee outlets nationwide! East Malaysia fans please be patient as you can only get your hands on them on 11th June 2010.

Important: No animals or fish were used or harmed in the production of the DONASHI™. The makers of this confectionery affirm that the product is suitable for Vegetarians.

We tried 13 types but you can only see 10 here because we didn’t take the photos of the other Donushi and some were too ugly because we accidentally tilted the box in the car and they were a mess!

DO-TAKUWAN, feel the passion of Papaya.

DO-IKURA, Orange pellet gels juggling for attention.

DO-NARUTO, enhanced with Strawberry Chocolate maze.

DO-FUTOMAKI, Kiwi fruit filing, Strawberry and Vanilla battle for supremacy as Orange bits take centre stage.

DO-KAPPA, Kiwi with subtle Chocolate.

DO-IKABURI, coconut Vanilla with Chocolate lacings.

DO-TAI NIGIRI, the all Vanilla favourite with Coconut and Orange bits.

DO-TAMAGO, Purely Mango with a dab of Chocolate.

DO-TAKO, a fill of Vanilla, a thrill of Strawberry, a spill of chocolate.

DO-SAKE, strawberry complemented by lacings of Coconut delight.

Very interesting don’t you think so? If I’m not mistaken you can’t buy it at night, only until 7pm and it’s on first come first serve basis.

Heard of Mr. Baoz! before? I got to know about it few years back but only had the opportunity to try it out during my previous trip to KL. Found the outlet at Food Republic, Pavilion. Immediately we bought some to try.

Since there was promotion that time and we bought the promo set, 4 baby Mr. Baoz for RM1.70/each. Original price was RM1.80/each.

Forgot what we had tried though, I might get the names wrong and the names are not in order:

We had BBQ Chicken(from Royal Delicacy series), Winter Romance(from Chocolate Serise), Chicken Sate Baoz(from Royal Delicacy series), and Snowflake Taro Baoz(from snowflake series).

Wonder will this franchise come to Kuching in near future. Do you think people here will accept it or not? A simple normal bao can also be so cute!

Premier 101 has so many eateries, one of them is Yeow Kee Kopitiam (尧记咖啡 店).

Paid a visit there the other day.

There were so many people! It’s so hard to find a place to sit, you have to have a lot of patience to wait for available seats.

Saw a stall selling Penang specialties and decided to order the food from this stall.

Cha kueh tiaw + clams (RM3.50)

Cha bee hoon + clams (RM3.50)

That’s all we ordered. They also have other food too. What is there so special that makes the place always packed with people? Hmm…

It seems like Ipoh Town Kopitiam is expanding quite fast in Kuching. First outlet in Kuching is located at Boulevard Shopping Mall, then came another one at Brighton Square. Now the third one at Tun Jugah.

Their signature drink is Ipoh “White” Coffee. This roast coffee is prepared using a unique method that combines elements of modern approaches with traditional Malaysian brewing practices. The name “white coffee” is associated with Ipoh, the origin of this coffee.

They also served a variety of local favourites such as nasi lemak, curry chicken rice, variety of toast and more.

This one here is Xi Mu Milk Tea(RM2.60), I don’t drink coffee. I forgot to take photo of it, only remembered after a few sips ;p

Since it’s located at the golden triangle of Kuching, the place is always packed especially during lunch and tea breaks(morning and afternoon).

If you have My Privilege Book, you can get various offers using the coupons or just present your card and enjoy 10% off the total bill(for dine-in only).

You can also find Ipoh Town Kopitiam in Miri. I came to know about this place when I went to Miri few years back. Few years later, it finally landed here in Kuching.

The operating hour is from 10am-10pm daily.
