Milwaukee Steak House @ USJ19 City Mall

My 2nd visit to Milwaukee Steak House @ USJ 19 City Mall. I didn't blog about it the first time, so I'll do it now. This steak house usually packed during dinner hour, and its renowned for serving the best steak in town with affordable price. The owner Mr Choo had opened 3 Choo had opened three outlets, in Kepong, KLCC, and the Petaling Jaya Harley Davidson showroom. The headquarters was at Belakong.

Milwaukee style of decor and decorated the walls and interior with Harley Davidson pictures and memorabilia.

Colorful stained glass hanging light.


Oriental Chicken Chop, nicely cooked, crispy on the outer part and the side dishes is good too. My frend comented this dish was good and satisfying.

Another frend who ordered this dish. I've forgotten the exact name, think is roasted chicken wing. Her rating for this dish was just so so.

Am having the yummy Chicken Cordon Bleu!! The best dishes out of 3!

Check out the inner fillings with oozing melting cheese and ham!

Very satisfying meal for me!

The best fresh orange juice I've ever had! Worth-your-money fruit juice served here! Only RM6, am sure it takes many oranges to make this one glass.

Color lenses

I have been wearing color lenses for almost half a year. So this post is about my experience with color lenses.


Geo 2 Tone Nudy Grey
Code: CH625

Natural grey color with a hint of light blue under the sunlight. Unfortunately, this picture didn't show that. It has enlarging effect on my eyes, and comfortable too. Natural for daily wear.


Princess Nudy Violet

It was uncomfortable, and sting my eyes when first time wearing them. So, I removed them and soak with my solution for a nite before wearing them. After that, no irration occur. This lenses made my eyes super huge, as the diameter is 14.7mm. I reckon that the violet color is too striking under bright daylight. So I prefer wearing them at evening/night, when they don't look so violet but brownish in color.

Honey Wing Series
OL104 - Ash wing

This lenses are grey in color with a thick black outer rim, so it makes the pupil more prominent. Inside the rim, it has a hint of blue greenish color under different daylight. It's pretty fun to wear this lens, as the color differs under different light. This is my most favourite comfy color lense. In this picture, I added falsies to compliments the lenses, top with Coffret D'or shimmer green eye shadows. Oh, isn't my brows pretty and neat? I had them style at Shu Uemura counter! :)

There is one more color lens which is honey color (OL103) from Honey wing series, which I've forgotten to snap picture in it. It didnt make much difference on my eyes, coz it has the same color as my eyes. So my next buy, I will only pick color lens which differs from my original eye color.

I bought my color lenses from these 2 blogs: Miss Lens and Classic Geo Lens

Kao Brand - Liese Bubble Hair Dye

Am sure you have come across this advert on TV. This surely caught my eyes.

LIESE (pronounced as “lee-zay”) is the No.1 Styling Brand in Japan!

I just bought another Liese Hair dye color from SASA @ Curve yesterday. They're having promotion now, it's RM37.80, not much different from the normal price which is RM38, but it came with a FREE polka dots cape!!!

Instructions on how to use on the back of the packaging.

Isn't it pretty? It looks like the one in the Liese advert. :)

In the past I have bought 2 Liese hair dye, including Casis Berry and Chestnut Brown color and now the most recent Ash Brown and Liese Juicy Hair Shower. Mind u, the bubble hair dye might not able to cover silver hair.

Juicy hair shower - RM31.80
Smells like berry mist!!

Robot Popping Dance!



Today while i was shopping @ Tangs Empire Subang, suddenly next to me a guy with jacket and dark glasses started to move his body like a robot and dance to the beat in robot popping style. This is also one of the street dance style. Some info from wikipedia: It is based on the technique of quickly contracting and relaxing muscles to cause a jerk in the dancer's body, referred to as a pop, tick or a hit. This is done continuously to the rhythm of a song in combination with various movements and poses.

Most customers including me find this amazing, and would stop our shopping and enjoy the show. I think this idea is interesting, Tangs is providing some entertainment for their customers to enjoy, in conjunction with their Anniversary Sale. Brilliant! I saw some of the customers started to take pictures and film the dancers. There are only 2 dancers, started from lower floor then proceed to the 2nd floor.

I have upload a video of the dancers in Tangs Empire. Check it out!


It's funny and what a co-incident that I saw this robot dance performance happened in Tangs right infront of my eyes. Becoz last nite I watched Step UP in 3D in MV!! I was totally thrilled by the dance moves and great dancers in it. Thanks to my best frend who kept telling me how great was the movie and told me to watch it. I must say Step Up is one of the best dance movie ever, must watch in 3D!! Ohh....by the way, both Rick Malambri and Chadd Smith is oh so charming! Chadd Smith's robot dance is so darn cool!! Go go go watch it before it's gone.





One of my favourite dance scene when Chadd Smith do the robot rock! Awesome!!

Levain Boulangerie Patisserie

I was craving for a hearty breakfast on a Saturday morning. So we decided to head down to KL, to taste this scrumptious pastries in Levain Boulangerie Patisserie. Since after reading Jean's blog reviews on this patisserie, I have been dying to visit them.

This patisserie is tucked away in the quiet street of Jalan Delima, same row as Noble House chinese restaurant and next to Fukuya Japanese Restaurant. The outlook of Levain Boulangerie looks like a classy french bungalow. Levain Boulangerie Patisserie is owned and managed by Beryl’s Chocolate & Confectionery Sdn Bhd.

Already packed with customers on a Saturday at 11am. There are 3 dining areas: indoor dining area, outdoor al-fresco dining area, and a dining room upstairs. We like the al-fresco dining.

Variety of breads, but some were sold out! But they will restock them, since they will be baking fresh bread all day long. I can imagine the kitchen must be very busy.

Varieties of cakes!! I wanna try'em all!

Turkey and Egg RM3.20
These are super NICE and YummieEE!

From top right clockwise: Mini turkey ham and egg sandwich (RM5), Mushroom and turkey crispy pizza (RM4.80), Mango cheese tart (RM4.30), Peanut butter french (RM2.80).
I love the mushroom and turkey crispy pizza, like its name is really crispy and crunchy! The mango cheese tart is great too, am personally love tarts with thin layer of pastry crust. All freshly baked unlike the ones you buy from bakery.

Mini Ham and Egg sandwich.

Caramel French RM2.80

Beef bacon, scrambled eggs, sausage and toast RM9.50
This is what I'd called a hearty breakfast! :)

Coco crunch Rm3.30

Beef curry donut RM3.80

Milk chocolate cheesecake RM9
Cream cheese and milk chocolate topped with white chocolate mousse.

Noisette RM8.50
Chocolate and mocha mousse layered with roasted hazelnuts as a crusty base.
Both dessert taste yummie!

1 Stop Cafe 大家乐咖啡店 @ Jalan Ipoh

1 Stop Cafe 大家乐咖啡店 is a modern classic Hainanese coffee shop tucked away in the corner shop lot of Jalan Balam, just Off Jalan Ipoh Batu-3, Kuala Lumpur. The business runs for 3 generations, the founder - Mr. Heng Teng Lee. Today, his grandson with 3 different chefs experienced in different gourmet styles, they revamped the look and also the menu of the shop. They still serves the old time Hainanese delicacy with a fusion of Western and Oriental touch.

One of their signature dish is the pumpkin pie 南瓜饼 (RM3.50), a finger food with a delectable steamed pumpkin filling with a crispy outer pumpkin shell coated with bread, crafted to look-like a pumpkin fruit. Very filling after eatin this.

Tortilla 多弟啦烧饼(RM3.50), a must try light snack. The tortilla skin is made of thin outer layer of omelette wrapped around the filling of cheese and chicken ham cooked in char siu sauce. One bite on it, the cheese oozing out from the tortilla, yummie!

Lobak chicken 五香卤肉 (RM3.50)
Taste very home cook for this dish, lightly fried with thin layer of skin on the outer part. Personally i do not like lobak which has thicker outer layer skin. This suits my taste. The chili sauce that comes with it blends deliciously.

Lala Clam Fried Beehoon 啦啦炒米粉 (RM7.50)
Am a fan of Beehoon. I love this dish very much, the baby lala and prawns are fresh. Not too strong seafood smell in this beehoon. Not too salty either.

Anchovies Seafood Fried Rice 银鱼海鲜炒饭 (RM5.90)
A decent homely cook style, not too salty or strong seafood smell in this fried rice.

Pear and Sea Coconut 雪梨海底椰 (RM4.50)
From first glance, the clear liquid gives us the thought this might be tasteless. We were wrong, the dessert is not tasteless at all! They were not stingy with their ingredients at all. Look at the spoonful of sea coconuts, chinese almond nuts, pears and dates etc give out the sweetness in the dessert.


1 Stop Cafe also has an extensive list of natural juices and smoothies that was thoroughly researched and tested by Heng and the chefs.

Digestive Tonic 神采飞扬 (RM5.90)
Made up of carrot, pear and apple.
Triple Milk Tea 三宝奶茶 (RM3.80)

Glimpse of the sweet dessert and health soup menu.

Overall, the food here is reasonable priced, and taste like decent homely cook dishes with no or less MSG. If you have a strong taste bud, you might not enjoy your meals here. I would go back to try their hand-roasted coffee on my next visit.
