Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf at Green Heights Mall opened quite sometimes ago and never got the chance to go there.

Finally got the chance to have some food and drinks there.

Let’s see what they have:

Lasagna. You get layers of pasta, minced chicken, Italian tomato sauce, baked with a topping of Cheddar cheese. Don’t dont’ judge by the portion, it’s pretty filling.

Coffee Bean’s Classic Caesar Salad consists of Romaine lettuce, eggs and garlic croutons tossed in a light Caesar dressing with Parmesan cheese. This is in fact quite filling too due to the egg and cheese.

The newly introduced Marshmallow Chocolate Mousse Cake. The white things you see are marshmallow and the purplish jam thing is blueberry. It’s not that sweet.

Ice Blended Red Bean Green Tea, green tea blended with red beans.

Ice Blended Black Sesame Green Tea, green tea blended with black sesame. This is less sweet compare to Ice Blended Red Bean Green Tea.

The BanQuet is having all-you-can-eat ala carte buffet starting 15th March 2009.

I’m sure many of you know that Pizza Hut has a website but not many know that they can actually order their pizza online. I know a lot of people around me know about it but I’m sure there are still many that didn’t know about it.

What I want to share with you now is that, not only you can order your pizza delivery online instead of calling the delivery number, you can now also order your pizza online and then pick up when it’s done. I know many of us hate to wait for takeaway.

You don’t have to worry now! Just go online and make your order. Let me share my experience with you (the whole process took about 15 mintues):

1. Go to pizzahut.com.my

2. Register an account.

3. When log in, choose “Pickup” if you want to pick up the pizza later.

4. Make your order and follow the instructions. You can opt to pay with Maybank2u or credit card. There’s also cash. How to use cash? I actually use this way. I chosed cash as payment method.

5. Wait for confirmation e-mail in your mail box.

6. For my case, not long after I got my confirmation e-mail, I got the phone call from the Pizza Hut outlet that I had chosen to reconfirm my order. I asked them when can I collect, they told me I can collect “NOW”. That’s fast, save a lot of time!

7. Went straight to the outlet and tell them you are going to pick up your pizza. They will show you the receipt, you pay and you got your pizza!

Very convenient! I really love this service they provide. Next time, I don’t have to wait anymore, order at the comfort of my home and pick it up when they’re done.

You can now pay less at Mc D and still have the same taste. Lots of saving you can get. Be it for your breakfast and/or or dinner. It’s valid in all Mc Donald’s outlets in Malaysia except McD in Genting and all airports in Malaysia. The good thing about it is that you can also save during weekends or public holidays! How great is that? Hurry click on the picture below and print the coupons out. Enjoy!

Only valid until 28th February 2009. Click for the coupons…

Here’s a list of HALAL eateries in Sarawak that we got from Jabatan Agama Islam Sarawak’s website. For full and updated list, do click on the link. You can also get to see what they serve in the eatery.

However, we noticed that some of the eateries that we saw with the HALAL certificate displayed aren’t listed in the website. You can always contact Jabatan Agama Islam Sarawak to confirm as they might have not updated the list in the website, only do so once in a blue moon.

We had visited some of them, you can try to make a search to see whether we’ve been to those places already or not. If you can’t find anything, it means we haven’t go there yet. Hopefully this little list will help you in finding out which place in Kuching or other parts of Sarawak are Halal so that you can enjoy the food without much worries.
