Aberfood@ Malaysia, Big Apple Donuts and Coffee!

Big apple donuts and coffee....


Dear readers, I am currently having my Christmas holiday in the capital of food , MALAYSIA!!

However, my first stop in malaysia wasn't something your guys will think about, it's the Big Apple Donuts and Coffee , which opened recently in the shopping mall near me....

What is nice about malaysia is that the food here are extremely cheap and i get a donut and a coffee for RM4.50 which is about 70P after converting back to the GBP.....

Donuts was as good as everyone talking about, glacier donuts better than others outlets can offer, however, the donuts was a bit small in serving...

What really suprised me was the coffee being served there....Never thought that they will served the world famous Illy coffee bean and to be honest it goes well with the donut...

That's all for the day, watched out for I will constantly update about the food here all the way from malaysia....

Christmas Dinner @ Tides

Recently went to Tides opposite the pier for Christmas dinner with 3 course meal...
The restaurant has good ambience and nicely decorated for the Christmas season, the service was good, we got a separate room for all the people to be sitted together in a nice little room, however the food wasn't really as anticipated, but nevertheless a good attempt to impress the critique.



Starter: Smoked salmon roulade with water cress & caper berry salad

One of the best starter except that the portion is relatively small, fresh smoked salmon...






Main Course: Roast turkey with pancetta wrapped chipolata & chestnut & cranberry stuffing

Turkey is well roasted, moderate gravy with it, stuffing was good, Cauliflower Cheese was too wet, prefarably to be more cheesy....

For the dessert, I had a Christmas Pudding Flamed with Brandy in White Sauce, it is just some normal piece of dessert and nothing special can be said of it...

The Christmas dinner is always about the people you eat with and it often make the food irrelevant anymore, because what we enjoyed was the time spent together at the festive seasons...
However, it is not the excuse for the food to be under par of a modest restaurant standard...

This restaurant found a good balance between the two, private room with least intervention from the staffs yet helpful when approached really make them outstanding from others, but from the food perspective, still a big improvement to be made!
