.....times of refreshing.....

I thought this was another local cafe with a Starbucks or Coffee Bean theme which operated by the Super Group, more known for their 3 in 1 coffee sold all over the country and Singapore. Located at the less popular Aeon Permas Jaya, their manufacturing plant was just 2KM away. It was only until I realised they served meals , and not just desserts to go along with the coffee.

The environment was pleasant with a few tables and sofas and it was relaxing dining there. After all, this Aeon was not as crowded as the other five Aeons in JB.

While running some groceries after fetching my kids from tuition nearby, we decided to try out the food there and  had brunch.  I guess this is the only or the first cafe that the Super Manufacturing Group opens.

A pancake and ice cream with chocolate syrup on top for my little princess

Aglio Olio for my wifey

My kid and I ordered a set each of their breakfast set.

Overall,  the food was great and I especially love the scramble eggs, which was also my kid's favourite. I definitely love their Americano, which was thick and slightly bitter which really perks me up for the day! After having a light breakfast, I considered this a brunch and it was a good one!

Have a good weekend!

Tom Yum soup ... not as authentic but good for a fix

Nasi Lemak with fried chicken

Chendol

 Then, after the heavy meal, the can't think straight me stop by for durians despite a full stomach and chose two nice D101. Well, thanks to some basic skills of durian choosing from my in law, I managed to get two good ones which the seller even said if I buy more, I will take away all his good durians... ahem...self-compliment. Anyway, the D101 was fleshy, sweet and small seeds.



And, I complaint of gastric, stomach bloatedness and nauseating the evening , which handed me a MC. :( Lesson learn ... don't over-eat when stress... hahahah...

Hwa Mui Restaurant is located at - Jalan Trus, Bandar Johor Bahru, 80000 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia

Last weekend was a relaxing weekend for me as it was a public holiday in Singapore on Monday while school holidays has started. That means we can break away from our usual routines as all my kids' enrichment classes are off. Though we didn't go anywhere far, it was great to be able to find some 'freedom' around and wind down, instead of rushing to send them to classes.

I thought of having steamboat on a Friday evening after returning back from work and the first place I thought of was Pavillion Steamboat in Taman Molek. I like this place, it was clean, air-conditioned, bright, good service and they gave away ice-cream potong. LOL  The food was not bad too as it was fresh and lots of ingredients given for the per head set meals.

Set for two persons as my kids can't eat much

Side orders - Bacon slices

Side order - Mushrooms

Side orders - Fish noodles

The accompany noodles that comes with the set

Side orders - Fried fishes

All ready to eat....yummy...

Pavillion steamboat restaurant is located at 106G Jalan Molek 2/2 Taman Molek 81100 Johor Bahru Johor.

Nasi Lemak with rendang chicken

Crispy fish fillet cooked in cereals with fries

'Siew Yok'

I had this over the weekend and I now know it's not easy to .... say no to good food. OK la... once a while.. hehehe....

Getting ready the fragrant chinese tea

The dry BKT

Somehow I find the dry version to be quite similar to the claypot salted fish with pork. It was also a little spicy. Anyway, it was great and very appetizing, though I still prefer the traditional soupy type.

The dished we ordered

Getting ready the garlic and chilli

Fried shark meat

The fried shark meat was special and it was crunchy. However, some parts of it seems a little bit hard, which I guess it could be the bones.

A healthy vegetable to go with the meat

I helped myself to the soupy BKT most of the time and even order extra soup. Well, maybe the dry type is not really to my liking. Anyway, BKT seems everywhere in the Klang valley and it's certainly a dish to try while you are there!

When the steak was first served, it was raw....

After grilling it on the hot stone for a very short while...

Dipped in the black pepper sauce and you had a sinfully but delicious meal. Ok, time to go for a jog....!!

I think I found a better place for coffee. Located at the new stretch of shops in Taman Molek, the cafe seems hidden from the main street. The cafe was large, clean and pleasant as well as the aroma of coffee fills the entire cafe once you stepped in. There were also three pretty waitresses cum coffee makers there, which is a good reason for me to go back there. :P

Nice, beautiful cafe

Since it was lunch and my kids were still in tuition, my wife and I decided to have some bites here. We ordered something light which are ciabattas as well as each one of us got a cup of coffee. I preferred cappuccino as usual while my wife got a cup of latte.

My cup of cappuccino

 The cappuccino was really good as it was smooth and it was very balance between creamer and coffee. The scent was strong too. There were some cappuccino which are too 'milky' while some tasted like freshly brewed coffee. This one is really great.

My ciabatta - Ham and cheese

Latte - looks the same but it's a bigger cup.

 Overall, I think their coffee are better than those famous coffee outlets in the malls. Anyway, will return and try more. By the way, here's the address -  Just Want Coffee, Jalan Molek 1/5c,Taman Molek, JB.

Chocolate and Milo desserts

Before that, I had their omelette rice and it was great too! Lots of shrimps, onions and meat! It does looks good right ?

Have a great mid-week!

Fried Chicken and Sirloin Steak combo

Have a great weekend, folks!

Appetizer - salad

Love this one ... big head prawn in oyster sauce. Each one of us get a plate.

A fresh steam fish

The dish of the day  - their famous chilli crabs

Dessert - Rockmelon sago

There was a plate of noodles and sotong which I didn't capture (shy...shy...hahaha). Again, it was a good time bonding with friends  and I will continue to do it. Well, maybe let's meet up with fellow bloggers in KL and Sarawak ? How about that ? :)
