A Day Of Firsts!
Last Sunday will go down in history as day of many firsts. First of all, I finally managed to try out the Italian place in Kepong that has been raved about by Wawa since forever. I liked the interior deco at Bel Pasto and it gave me a cozy feeling that made me feel right at home. The place was quite empty considering it was lunch hour on a Sunday afternoon.
I had the Spaghetti Vongole while Wawa had her favourite Fettucini Carbonara. Erm, how shall I put this? (And still give credit where its due =P) I found the sauce too bland for my liking and the spaghetti noodles a tad on the soft side. But the ambience and customer service was superb! =D
My Spaghetti Vongole (Quite A Large Portion)
Fettucini Carbonara (Someone was too impatient to dig in before I had a chance to take a photo)
Next, we found ourselves in Wong Kok Char Chan Teng in 1 Utama for yet another first for me. Embarassing though it may seem, I have never got around to trying the food at the Hong Kong styled eateries even though they have been around for a few years already.
The sad thing is I might have never made the trip if not for the shocked expression on Wawa's face when i told her that I had never ever eaten the so called "Cheese Baked Rice" dish. Frankly, I'm not a big fan of fusion food and cheese baked over steamed rice certainly fits the bill of fusion so I remained sceptical for sometime.
But after being exposed to many comments like "I can't believe you've never had Cheese Baked Rice!" or "What??? You've never been to Wong Kok before?" soon got to me and I found myself wondering what I've been missing all this while. So another first for me to finally step into the Wong Kok Char Chan Teng branch at 1 Utama. =P
However, after the heavy lunch at Bel Pasto, all that we could fit in was some very delicous Ice Cream Peanut Butter Thick Toast which I absolutely loved! What have I been missing out on here?? How come no one dragged me here before to sample this delicious foods? Why?
Anyway, after sufficient time had passed for our stomachs to digest the lunch and tea, I at last had a chance to try out the famous "Cheese Baked Rice" dish. When it finally arrived, it looked fabulous! I could feel my mouth salivating looking at the amount of cheese in the dish which I felt was calling out to me. How can anyone resist cheese?
The Absolutely Yummylicious Cheese Baked Rice
The Cheese Baked Rice again with the Sherlock Holmes Milk Tea that I was deprived off *cries*
Long story short, I'm officially a converted Cheese Baked Rice addict! Plan to make many more trips here in the future =D
PS: Since when did my blog become a food blog?

HAHAHA finally you have tried the cheesebake rice! Kudos to Wawa and you!
The best cheesebake rice I had so far is at Chatterbox (1 Utama new wing, Bangsar Village are the outlets that I know). And at Wong Kok, do try out the Royal Milk Tea Shake because it's superb. Drink it early in the afternoon so you won't get deprived la, thats what I do.
