The Steak House, Taman Mount Austin

Hectic weeks that filled with ceaseless workloads at an increasingly rapid pace.

I can barely catch a breath and take a good rest. o(╥﹏╥)o 

Almost suffocated myself with the heavy workloads.

How I wish the time would slow down, giving me time to breathe in the midst of busyness.

(ᴗ˳ᴗ)

This little Cafe has gained much and much popularity in Johor and it's fully occupied at most times.
I had blog about it previously and now the new menu is launched.
Here is the previous post, AnMour Cafe Concept and beware that most of the prices have increased.
Some of those unpopular dishes have been removed and new dishes are added to it.
They increased the price of my all time favourite dessert, Crazy Mud Pie from RM8.90 to RM10.90 >.<

(Sorry to said that it's a NO for me, I wondered that they have changed their chef?? It's still too salty even after I requested to change another new 1)

Signature Rosemary Chicken Chop (RM14.90)

Maco Cafe & Bakery

MACO Cafe & Bakery

A clean and simple looking cafe with a awesome of pastries and impressive coffee
Highly recommended place for high-teas, chill-outs, gatherings, dates, chit-chatting . . .

Offers various flavours of  Mille Crèpe and Macarons that supplied by Sugar & Flour, which is not commonly found in many cafe in Johor.

Only limited number of tables available and it's fully occupied at most time.


(Went there quite a few times and it becomes a regular place for me to chill-out. So, I just combined all together in this post.)
 
Mouth-watering pastries.. slurrpp....

They have more than 10 flavours of mille crepes, and I wish I could try all of them before I grad =3

The ongoing promotion : Get 10 for the price of 9

Mille Crèpe 

Left: Almond Mille Crepe 杏仁 (RM8.50) - perfect combination of soft and crunchy
Right: Caramel Coffee Crepe 焦糖咖啡 (RM8.50) - bitter in taste

Front: Mango Mille Crepe 芒果 (RM8.50)
Back: Musang Durian Mille Crepe 猫山王榴莲 (RM8.50) *must try*

Front: Baileys Mille Crepe 白利市 (RM8.50) *must try*

Back: Rum & Raisin Mille Crepe 兰姆酒葡萄干 (RM8.50) - dislike the milky taste

Coffee

All of the coffees are brewed and then served with unique designs and characters on top which will put a smile on the face its customer. I'm not an avid coffee fan, but I still love their coffee as it have a very strong aromatic. 

Left: Cafe Mocha 摩卡咖啡 (RM8.50)

Espresso, steam milk and milk foam, infused with premium chocolate syrup

Right: Matchaccino mocha 抹茶咖啡 (RM9.00)

The marriage of coffee and green tea, topped with silky milk foam

Left: Cappuccino Ice Blended 卡布奇诺 (RM10)
Right:  Caramel Ice Drip 焦糖冰滴 (RM10) - Limited Coffee

(I wonder why the price of their ice drip is so cheap as the process of getting ice drip coffee is quite complicated and time consuming. The ice drip coffee is left for 8 hours overnight and then only kept in the refrigerator for the next day.)

On my hand: Caramel Macchiato 焦糖玛其朵 (RM8.50)

Espresso topped with milk foam, drizzle with homemade caramel sauce

(Silly me posing with the coffee until I forget to take picture of it. =.=)

Christmas Eve

It's finally the last day of all lectures, marking the end of assignments and thesis. Luckily all things are done before Christmas and so I shall celebrate this festive season peacefully without any assignments or projects. Phew!!! This semester was a tough one and hoping that I will get good grade for my thesis. But... it is not the end yet, stressful exams are around the corner waiting for us... T.T

As a reward for ourself, a few friends and me decided to go for a walk before I went back to Penang by bus. (It's so sad that I needed to spend the night of Christmas eve and countdown alone inside the bus. >.<) We rented a car and I become their driver. (This is my first time driving in Johor and I'm not really familiar with the road in Johor yet *scared*)

We went to Jusco Bukit Indah and it was so crowded. Eventually we ended up in this restaurant, Tea Garden, for our late lunch as there is no many choices for us to choose from.

Watermelon Juice (RM4.30) 

Soya Bean-Hot (RM2.50) 

Lime + Sour Plum Juice (RM3.80)

Tom Yam Seafood Soup with Rice (RM9.00)

★★☆☆☆

Cheesy Baked Spaghetti with Chicken Chop (RM12.80)

★★★☆☆

* Prices are subject to 10% service charge
I wonder why they still dare to charge the service tax as their services are extremely bad. Hope they will have some improvement on it. =.=

Before we went back, I suggested to go for dessert again. haha... Dunno why I can't resists myself from getting dessert every time after meal. >.< So I drove them to U Dessert at Taman Sutera Utama.

Despite being sick, I ordered a cold dessert (Sago and Mango) without thinking of it consequences.... and I regretted!!! Without knowing that mango can actually aggravate the cough, I become seriously ill....
