Great Mediterranean Food at Bondi Junction @ Setia Walk, Puchong

10/02/2013 No Comments

I am starting to like Setia Walk in Puchong to be appear another main joint of drinking and eatery place. Spreading out their lovely landscaping that is one of the main crowd puller that provides great ambiance which is something unique compare to other mall. Bondi Junction.

This would be my second time here as still find parking here is a bit confusing or there weren’t proper signage up yet at the moment. Last round that I came, I visited Sushi Tei and now came back here for second round, we are in hunt for one Mediterranean food located at Block F level one. First timer here looking for this shop, surely will be lost locating. Just look for Ding Tea, and its above it.

A simple casual dining place whereby you can just hop in anytime. A place whereby its decorated with simple hanging decorations, and why Australia flag is there, its because mainly the influence are from Australia, hence Bondi Junction is the name of the shop whereby its a place in Sydney.

Its pretty amazing that they have this open concept kitchen yet you don feel that the smoke from kitchen is coming out. Maybe its non-air condition and pretty well ventilation around the area that do not make us feel it.

A simple menu with good offerings for us to hunt from. Price of dish are pretty decent.

I have tried this previously when we first drop by after my meal at Sushi Tei and instally we fall for this Focaccia Bread with 4 dips @ RM25. Made freshly by the chef with only limited offerings available. When it was place onto the table, the aroma of the freshly bake bread with rosemary and olives dotting the flat loaf entrails into our nose and just couldn’t wait to get a bite of it. .

Comes with 4 dips: sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, black olives and balsamic vinegar, and I prefer the sundried tomato and feta cheeze are awesome combination.

Wild Mushroom Soup @ RM 11 are all in homemade style with fresh ingredients that cook on the spot. Its flavourful that we need not even add in any black pepper that the taste is already there. How could we resist the temptation of this.

Roasted Pumpkin and Red Capsicum Soup @ RM 11 would be something unique for the night as there are hint of little spicy pepper taste and both are equally good. In the end, we order the soup again for another round.

This doesnt look like pizza as the own version of Bondi Junction Meat Lovers @ RM25 topped with turkey ham, pepperoni, minced beef, onions, capsicum, olives and mozzarella. The dough are prepared daily for pizza and made fresh. Its slightly different from any other pizza that I had as the crust is thin and near to bread. I prefer meat lovers more.

Bondi Special @ RM27 – with basil pesto, olives, sundried tomatoes, capsicum, pepperoni, egg, onions and mozzarella.

To me, super star of the night would be Beef Lasagna @ RM18. After one bite of this, it instantly hit onto my top chart as one of the best. Soft filling inside out with carefully baked melted cheeze on top, with chef special tomato base sauce that make it outstanding. -Highly recommended for Beef as I think it taste much better than Chicken.

Beef Bolognese Spaghetti @ RM15 Minced beef in Napolitana sauce with basil and parmigiano. I think this is not bad as I had the lasagna first and I think it had overpower the taste this. Spaghetti is al-dante.

Most people would misfire this dish – Chicken Gordon Bleu @ RM30 for one of a simple reason that the chicken breast would end up very dry. As for here, it suprise us that its not dry yet still quite juicy and aromatic with cheeze & ham taste in it. Well done.

Stuffed Seafood Chicken @ RM30 is one of a unique this that I have come across as pan-seared chicken roulade stuffed with chopped seafood served with pistachio sauce, greens and grilled herbed potatoes. Its a very well balance dish with greens, roasted potato and the sauce of pistachio taste unique. What makes it perfect is with red wine that pulls the taste up very well.

Roasted Salmon with Red Pesto @ RM32 a dish that looks very healthy to me. With colourful veggie and lemon for you to squeeze on.

Comes dessert time, rarely no one will say no.

Crème Brulee, Classic Apple Pie and French Lemon Tart, @ RM10 each.

At that point, we were pretty stuff and yet the picture of this Russian Benny @ RM17 – fatty salmon, mushrooms and toast with the thick creamy Hollandaise sauce keep calling our name. Its agreat breakfast that we order 2 portion. Do let the waiter know you prefer runny yolk as one dish the yolk are pretty cook. Of course with this great breakfast would not be complete with. . . Coffee.

Coffee in Bondi Junction are pretty good. I love their Mocha and Flat white. They are price in between RM6 and RM9

Valentines is just around the corner and looking for something pretty simple with great food, definitely this outlet would be another recommendation by me even for ordinary dining with friends and family.

Mezza 9 Restaurant & Bar @ Glomac Galleria, Desa Sri Hartamas

16/05/2012 No Comments

I believe many of you do notice the new empty building next to True Fitness along Sprint Highway heading towards 1-Utama. It looks kinda empty at the moment and with ample parking which is an advantage to this new outlet called Mezza 9 that just operated in the area for just about 3 weeks old. Its very easy to locate as they are the only outlet currently operating as F&B in the building.

[update Aug 2016: Close Down]

Already manage to capture a good drinking crowd and we arrange to go try out this new outlet as they serve Mediterranean Food and heard that they hire a good chef!

After opening its door and put my step in, they have very nice interior that again heading more towards of modern New York cafe style. A simple design that make it look elegant and a comfortable place to dine.

The restaurant is seperate into 2 floors that on the ground level are meant for people to enjoy dining experience also a Non-Smoking area.

However after your dinner if you would want to continue with drinking session can head to mezzanine floor which is design for friends and strangers to get along .. 😀

A few bar tables up here and they do have happy hours too . . Now being up here is a smoking zone already . .

Just love the design of their bar, classy black with some lamps shining on top just as I always like . .

Wild Mushroom Soup @ RM18 filled with finely chopped fresh mushroom cook till creamy yet not too salty at the end. Just as I preferred my mushroom soup to be.

To many first people’s impression on French Onion Soup is am I drinking soy sauce ah? In this case the soup is well prepared that cook till the onion is very soft till near to melt in your mouth as upon you drinking it and it bends towards more salty taste. @ RM12

Garden Salad with Balsamic Dressing @ RM18 is a very simple dish that serve upon yet flavourful and would turn into a perfect dish for a person who is on diet!

Caesar Salad @ RM 18

Another thing that you shall not miss is their Bruschetta range. Salmon Bruschetta (2pcs) @ RM12. Generous with their ingredient as you get a roll of salmon added on top of cubes of tomato with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and finely chopped parsley.

One of my favourite for the night is Mushroom Bruschetta (2pcs) @ RM8, with its creamy sauce flwoing just like that, and smell of the well cook mushroom flows on our nose trails just makes us want to put this whole piece into our mouth one shot. – Recommended!

Calamari with Homemade Tartare Sauce @ RM12 is a simple starter and would pair better if you have a glass of beer along!

The super star dish for the night is this Braised Oxtail (4pcs) as we take pictures on it we already swallowing saliva with the nice smell that it flows out. A perfectly braised dish that the meat is soft yet flavourful . Just makes you want to have more. – Highly recommended! @ RM16

A simple dish and flavourful with hint of black pepper at the end and pair well with the tomato sauce is this Meatball in Tomato Sauce (4pcs) @ RM12.

When it was served upon, I was like why is the salmon burn a bit .. 🙁 yet this would be my frist time to try on something new for Honey & Grain Mustard Glazed Salmon @ RM48. To our suprise, as we cut it, it is soft not as it look and the taste to pair along with honey mustard makes it a great combination.

Another one of my favourite is Mint Marinated Rack of Lamb with Fondant Potato and Roasted Cherry Tomato @ RM45 that is prepare medium with a bit blood flowing out upon cutting it. The mash potato is something we cant stop eating.

A simple dish that prepare well is Spaghetti Aglio Olio with King Prawns @ RM38

Mezza9 Fusion Seafood Paella @ RM40 (double servings) RM25 (single servings)

Oh, I just love this dish because of its strong well balance taste of tomato with lots of mince meat Spaghetti Bolognaise with Beef Bacon (spicy) @ RM25. I just love it. – Recommended!

Black Angus Rib Eye Served with Mediterranean Vegetables, Roasted Potato & Corn on Cob @ RM80

Well prepare in medium with its meat juicy and tender.

Profiteroles (2 serving per portion) @ RM18

oh oh.. their signature desert, also another dish would love to recommend is Chocolate Lava cake with Orange Cream Anglaise @ RM 15. It was prepare pippin hot, that a simple cut break the crust of the cake and chocolate just ooze out, just cant stop eating this.

If you are asking me where to have a nice meal and certianly this would be one of the place to recommend! I guess one of the reason the good food came out is that they have a Chef from Sentidos Tapas, Starhill.

Those of you who love Wine, they now offer WINE BUFFET at RM 50 with 6-8 types of wine available. Available Daily except SUNDAY

16/05/2011 No Comments

Friends gathering, birthday parties, anniversary, and lepaking sessions, are constantly looking for a place to chill, with the freaking hot weather we have recently, some people do want to have nice garden ambiance and one of the place that I find it cool is that, we can enjoy outdoor garden style ambiance yet with air condition. . . Garden Lifestyle Store & Cafe

[Update – May 2016: NO longer in Operations]

One of the latest outlet that open by Garden Lifestyle which I firstly discover was their branch at The Curve (click here) and now this outlet located inside Mid Valley is fully indoor, air conditioned and best thing is you can enjoy garden ambiance too . .

If you wanted to be seated in greenery as the floor, they do have this lovely section with sound of light waterfall background. . .

This cage makes me feel with the scene of Tweety Bird and Sylvester as the pianist will be playin in there. . .

with the upstairs section would feel more like a tree house. . .

Food Escapade @ Garden Lifestyle Store & Cafe, The Curve

22/07/2010 No Comments

What I we do get a chance to dine in a big open space green field with flowers blooming and cool wind towards us and enjoying our afternoon tea or lunch? That would be a chance that I do not want to miss. A new concept had been build upon for people like us, city dwellers that seldom got a chance to expose ourselves in those natural environment but something similar would be available to enjoy at The Garden Lifestyle Store and café which is located at The Curve with one of their originals at lower ground, 1-Utama.

Comes to think of it, this would be one of my longest food post so far. So hopefully you don read this during before lunch or dinner time.

[update: 2016 – No longer in Operation]

They have the idea trying to bring the ambiance as relaxing as possible by decorating the whole place green with fan ceiling on the top, big bird cage a pianist to play for a relaxing moment.

In the restaurant they have two dining area, one would be open garden concept which would suits those who love air or smokers especially to be seated in this section but only one scenario that you guys should fear is rain!

A big cage decorated as the place to make it a bit english style.

When you feel that you are lonely or waiting for friends to arrive, a pianist that actually playing there with relaxing music (a bit of classical) to cheer up your mood.

According to some of the girls, he is consider cute and with a guy able to play piano for them on certain occasions, they consider that as romantic, which I nod my head and agree. 🙂

For those who do not like to be in outdoor by maintain fairer skin or prefer to be somewhere chill, indoor section would be a good choice after all, as it is decorated with lots of flowers, mini tress and pots to stir up the indoor ambiance.

Looks more like a tree style cafe dining.

With all this, we could not thank more to Tracy for being one of the best host whom are very friendly, warm, down to earth person type and also she do focus alot on food management of the restaurant especially on food quality control.
