Winter Lover Bakery House @ The Strand, Kota Damansara

Winter Lover Bakery House is located at the Strand, Kota Damansara, a row behind Alliance and OCBC Bank. It's at the first floor above the KungFu cafe. A bakery house that features in Mille Crepes, Macarons and Flower Tea. 

A very clean and cozy environment for relaxing especially during the weekends or holiday. The first cafe I experienced to leave our shoes/ slippers outside. I can feel like walking bare-foot at home. Plus, the wooden flooring are quite clean and non-dusty.

Out of the above, I love the 3 in 1 mille crepe the most as it tasted just like soft ice cream cake. The mango mille crepe is very flavourful too. Strawberry and Rum & Raisin mille crepe is the most popular among my friends. Their mille crepe is not very thick creamy type that I don't feel much jelat after eating much. I don't really fond of the macarons, too sweet for me. 

All mille crepe are @ RM9.90 each. Currently they are having the promotion of buy 10 at the price of 9. There are more than 18 choices of Mille Crepe available here and some are seasonable or limited edition i.e., Musang King Durian Mille Crepe that is only serve in Weekends on first come first serve basis.

The Yogitree @ The Gardens, KL

Come across this Restaurant from webuy, where I bought a coupon of RM49.90 for 2 sets meal (Main Dishes + Desserts + Drinks) that worth of RM112.00).

The Yogitree restaurant located at the busiest shopping centre between KL and PJ - the Gardens mall. Yogitree served mostly healthy organic food, thats why their pricing is slightly higher compared to normal restaurants.

Oriental Mushroom Linguini @ RM24.00

This is a vegetarian pasta, that stir fried with all kinds of mixed Japanese mushroom. Peeping at Yogitree menu, there are iringi, shitake, enoki, oyster, shimeiji mushrooms, arugula vegetables, carrots and cucumber. Not to forget, the linguini are fried with a dash of healthy truffle oil. Therefore the pasta really looks oily, a layer of oil at the bottom where i find it quite jelak while eating. But telling myself those are healthy olive oil, shouldn't be a problem. 

Wagyu Beef Cheese Burger @ RM36.00

It was served with nicely decorated mixed side salads, potato wedges, mustard and gherkins and wagyu beef burger at each side of the serving plate. The side salad are refreshing serving with their home-made dressing. The potato wedges are crispy at the skin and flavour in it.

Wagyu Beef Cheese Burger

The wagyu beef was sandwich with a toasted soft bread. It doesn't look big at diameter but the wagyu beef patties is thick with some ham on top. The patties is really moist and the meat is divinely tender. You doesn't need to add on any sauce on it, the wagyu beef is very flavoured and taste delicious. This is a perfect Sunday brunch for me.

Cheese Cake @ RM13.00

Yogitree has some daily cakes and brownies. Their cheese cake is very rich of cheese. The taste is strong and cake is soft, it is melting in my mouth each and every bite. 

Having an afternoon tea with friends and family here is relaxing and comfortable with the quiet environment.

BlackBall 黑丸 @ Sri Petaling

After their first outlet at Subang Jaya last 2 months, here comes another new outlet of BlackBall at Sri Petaling now !!!

Black Ball the famous Original Taiwanese Tea & Dessert -- the BEST Grass Jelly 仙草 in town.  



Just let you have a bits of BlackBall history/ background:

BlackBall company started back in 2006, has bloomed and now stands as one of the biggest dessert chains in Taipei with over 20 outlets and still expanding. Drawing from the idea of 'Xian Cao' 仙草 being 'black' in colour and taro ‘balls’, came the birth of BlackBall - a dessert connoiseur that has its roots in Taiwan.  

The company was founded and created by Mr. Tang, who is an experienced tour guide, when he came across ‘Xian Cao’ by chance upon travelling to ‘Guan Xi’. He was thrilled and excited by what he had encountered, as notonly did his new discovery taste great, but it also provided various health benefits. 

What makes our beverages and desserts differ from others? 

Tea - Unlike others, the tea we serve/use is freshly brewed on site everyday. For every four hours we will change our high quality tea leaves to serve you the freshest and the finest tea.

'Xian Cao‘ 仙草 - Finest quality 'Xian Cao' imported directly from Guan Xi, producing top notch quality 'Xian Cao' tea and grass jelly, giving you the heavenly taste you will never find in other dessert chains.  

Taro Balls - We use only handmade taro balls with natural ingredients, promising you the most chewy taro balls you have ever tasted.

Instead of normal crushed ice, they uses Xian Cao crushed ice as the base of the BlackBall desserts.


The BlackBall Signature is the most popular ones... out of stock.. and need to wait around 30mins for the Taro Balls.


BlackBall Signature 大黑丸 (Cold) @ RM6.50

Although the menu only written 5 toppings but i can see mine got 7 (as shown in the pix) !!

Grass Jelly ice is the base, on top has a layer of Grass Jelly,  Taro Balls, Taro Q, Sweet Potato Q, Yellow Potato, Red Bean and Pearl. 嫩仙草，芋圓，芋Q，珍珠，紅豆。

QC very good, the taste is the same i get from Subang Jaya outlet. Their Xian Cao not too sweet, very smooth jelly and strong herbal taste. The Taro balls are chewy!! Taro Q can taste the real yam and sweet potato flesh. Everything is just so matching.

BlackBall Signature 大黑丸 (Hot) @ RM6.50

Its liquid grass jelly.. it slowly becomes solid when i'm eating.. later it becomes solid jelly but the taste is still very nice and herbal aroma is strong too.

"Jiu Fen" Taro Ball Grass Jelly 九份芋圓仙草冰 @ RM6.50

It name as a famous place Jiu Fen in Taiwan where the origin of Taro Balls. Besides the Taro Balls and Pearl it add on the Sweetened beans. Served with brown sugar syrup!

Back: Signature "Xian Cao" Tea with Grass Jelly 黑丸仙草冻饮 @ RM5.90

Was told that the Xian Cao tea has NO add on sugar. Its all natural sweet from the herbal grass.


Front: Fresh Milk with Grass Jelly 鮮奶仙草冻饮 @ RM5.90

I din't try this when i visit the previous outlet because i scared will feel nasty for a huge cup of milk. But after tasting it, i was delighted with the fragrance that comes from the Xian Cao. Its so refreshing and cooling with the smooth and Q grass jelly, wont feel any sick of too much milk. This is my favourite drink now !!!!
