The Maze at MidValley

Macam-macam Christmas decoration ade dekat shopping complex. Masing-masing cuba nak attract crowd. So salah satu yang menarik, Christmas decoration dekat Mid Valley.. The Maze.. Patutnya i amik gambar dari atas, so u all nampak lah rupe Maze nye macam mane.. Actually yang perasan pun Emir.. happy dia nampak The Maze..




Sementara laki i pergi The Gardens sat, I lepak la dengan Emir kat keliling ni je.. Sempat lagi kiterang main Hide and Seek. Tapi tak de lah I hide sangat pun, sebab mata nak kene ngekor dia jugak. Ramai orang.. takut terhilang di celah celah pulak..




Ni gambar happy Emir mase dia jumpe I..  takdelah nyorok pun.. dah maknyer besar macam tuttt... nyorok pun still boleh nampak lagi hehe :)




you know, selalunya nak bagi anak happy tak perlukan duit pun, kite je beria kan,. Emir bawak pergi sini or any playground pun dah happy..

Hotel Istana - Part 5 || Splash Splash

I nak splash splash??.. definitely not me.. tukang teman tepi pool boleh la.. Like any other kids, nampak je swimming pool umpama nampak padang permainan.. Wajib kene pergi.. I seperti biase, dah siap packing Emir punye baju..


Lepas breakfast pagi-pagi tu, anak I dah tak sabar dah nak merendam dalam air.. Dah tak boleh nak tunggu petang, I pun kasi je sebab sekarang ni petang pun belum boleh janji Emir dapat mandi dekat pool sebab hujan pun tak menentu kan.. pagi pun pagi lah..




Ingatkan dah cukup pagi tak de orang, tapi ramai je mat saleh dah start sun bathing pepagi tu.. oh pak arab sekali.. seronok depaa yaa datang Malaysia ber-sun bathing.. I tak daklah nak ambik gambaq kan.. buat apaa..


Dalam pada Emir mandi tu adalah one little girl ni, dia macam irritated sikit dengan Emir each time Emir melompat dalam pool.. setiap kali Emir lompat, setiap kali lah dia akan sebut "mummmyyyyy".. I buat bedek je, lagipun Emir pun lompat jauh pada dia bukan dekat :)




Emir punye aksi-aksi gambar macam ginilah dari Emir yang buat I dapat tido 4 hari 3 malam dekat Istana Hotel FREE.. Kalau ade contest lagi, gambar macam ni jugak la i nak hantar kot.. nampak happy kan, bukan buat buat happy..




Oh gambar dekat bawah ni adalah atas arahan Emir Rasyid.. He said "Ibu can you please take my picture when Im splashing the water"... berape kali jugak lah i ambik and berape kali jugak lah anak I ni demand kate "not like this, not like this".. Gambar ni baruuuuuuu dia approve hahaha..



Cuma satu je, Hotel Istana tak ade Kids Club, Kids Room atau ape2 aktiviti untuk kids, even dalam bilik, channel Cartoon Network atau sewaktu dengannya pun tak de..  itu yang buat Emir mati kutu sikit.. kire Swimming pool is the only place who children untuk bersuka ria selain daripada mengadap komputer 24 jam..



Hotel Istana - Part 4 || Evening Cocktail

Ok ok, I know some of you dah boring dah tak habis cerite pasal Hotel Istana.. Apa nak buat, I menang macam ni ntah2 sekali je kot... :) Lagipun I nak masukan dalam Trip Advisor, so kalau nak sekali upload segala gambar bercinta la kan dengan internet yang super "laju" ni..


Anyway, having to stay at Club Room, I am entitled to enjoy Club Benefits. Yes, bilik nyer same jer, tak de beze pun dengan bilik2 yang i pernah duduk kat mane2 hotel, tak besar pun, but the plus point, the benefits.. one of it, tiap2 hari boleh datang Evening Cocktail.. datang makan hehe..


This is the Club Lounge located at Level 20




Dalam ni ada ala-ala cyber cafe, magazines, TV room, pendek kate, macam Common Room la tempat kite melepak-lepak, so kalau Emir letih tunggu kiterang yang makan lame berjela ni, kiterang hantar je dia duduk depan komputer ni main game.. 





Cozy kan, Ezna, kat sini lah I cari gambar you dalam paper sementara tunggu makanan Evening Cocktail masuk mengadap :)



Makanan ok, bayangkan on the first and second day, dinner dah ade, nak jugak sumbat makan evening cocktail.. :) That's what I said, staying here was all having a good food :) makan, makan dan makan. My Emir pulak, bulat mate dia tengok strawberry.. he loves loves loves Strawberry..



Gambar diri sendiri yang serba hitam.. kasik macam ala-ala arab sikit hehe, ramai betul orang arab mai Malaysia yer.. 



The best part.. meh la i tunjuk makanan-makanan yang ada.. setiap hari tukar2 menu, ni gambar i amik untuk sehari je kot, hari lain i tak ambik..







Best!! Club Lounge tak ramai orang.. so makan pun dengan hati yang tenang.. :)

When somebody so familiar is on paper.. :)

Seronok tak bila tengok kawan-kawan yang you rapat menang contest?

Seronok tak bile kite menang something that related with parenthood?

Lagi seronok bile derang masuk paper.. :)


My dear friend, Ezna won the first prize of Dutch Lady contest - kene bercerite your experienced during your child's first day at school.. Ni dalam The Star, bile belek The Star, Ezna ni macam conquer all the stories je hahaah.. siap name headline pun start dengan name Ezna..


Tahniah Ezna and little Dania. I am happy for you!! They will both appear in TV9 (kalau tak silap) real soon :)

Rasa macam dalam iklan Dugro tu pulak, bile i tengok iklan Dugro *yang full version, memang rasa sedih / terharu bile tengok anak kite dah kene masuk sekolah.. Time flies..




Hotel Istana Part 3 - The Sompotan Spa

This is an additional prize from what I should received. RM150 Cash Voucher Sompoton Spa. Happy bukan kepalang la i.. Memang nak pergi mengurut pun, sekali dapat pulak discount nak pergi mengurut.. Tapi.. harga Sompoton Spa ni sungguh la harga hotel-hotel di Malaysia.. 




But why not kan I try, lagipun lepas makan dekat Urban Restaurant tu, I dah tak de ape nak buat.. Hubby pun tak kisah nak jaga Emir, I pun buatlah appointment dalam pukul 9.30 malam. Ada tiga jenis body massage, Signature Massage, Malay Traditional Massage and Balinese Massage. Harga semua sama RM200 untuk 60 minit.. I told you, harga hotel kan hehe.. Actually kalau nak guna voucher 100 percent pun boleh, tapi bile belek fee, cuma ade tiga bende je yang bawah RM150.. Relaxing Foot Spa - RM100 (ni i tak boleh sebab I memang seorang penggeli ya ampun), Manicure RM80, Pedicure RM90.. 




Fikir punya fikir, I ambiklah Signature Massage. Signature Massage is the combination of Malay, Swedish and Shiatsu massage.  Orang tu kate, kalau nak hard massage, pilihlah Malay traditional massage, sederhana Signature and Relax punye Balinese Massage. I nak sederhana, sebab tu lah I pilih Signature Massage..



Memang best bila sekali sekala kene mengurut. By right as a woman, memang patut kene ngurut sebulan sekali. Macam i ni lagilah. Bile dapat mengurut, memang dapat rasa badan pun ringan. Orang yang mengurut i pun peramah orang nye, Penny dari Bali. Cuma bilik tu panas sikit sebab air con takde, dah 3 jam rosak masa i datang. Tapi tak pelah, badan i pun memang sejuk je manjang, memang patut kene panas pun..


You all memang dedicated ngurut sebulan sekali tak?

Where to eat: Hotel Istana | Urban Restaurant | Fine Dining | Part 2

During our stay here, seriously, it is all about having a good food. Yeah, I bet definitely we gain few kilos here, but worry about this later as somehow, this would be our life time experience kan makan tempat mahal cam gini..


Anyway, yesterday, Hotel Istana arranged for our dinner at Urban Restaurant, a contemporary fine dining restaurant located at the Lobby. Malu-malu jugak nak masuk since err ye lah, fine dining kan..


The decoration is simple yet elegance, with orange color dictated the space. 



Staffs sangat friendly. They told us the recommended menu, ok seriously, we didn't know what to order, semua nampak macam best, semua nampak macam menarik. I discussed dengan husband i, nak order something yang different.. tapi rasanya semua name i tak pernah dengar hahaha...



First, they served us with Puri Bread.. Sedap!! Emir pun melahap bende ni jugak.. This is not in the menu that we ordered, I think this is complimentary kot.. tapi sedapp!!


Then, not long after that, came the walnut bread.. We were errr.. "banyak nyer nak makan".. Of course, we didn't manage to eat all. kene simpan untuk next menu that we officially ordered..



Ok below is my appetizer.. Risotto served with Scallops, Prawns and Asparagus Risotto is an Italian rice, Emir yang suke, very cheesy and creamy, kalau I makan sorang memang muaklah, luckily Emir finished 3 quarter of it..



Ambik gambar 3 beranak dulu.. :) Nampak tak kat belakang, tak de orang, we were the only customers that night hehe

Below is hubby's Appetizer - Australian Lamb Rib served with Onion Relish and Cheese Dolmades sedap jugak, Emir pun balun ni jugak.. Ok, anak teruna i sekarang makan banyak tau!!.. 



While waiting for Main Course to come, Emir dah restless dah, dengan battery Tab dah habis, dia dah pusing-pusing, and I dah started to worry, ye lah, gelas sane sini. So, I gave him my camera, and pergilah dia ambik gambar.. Punyelah lame dia dekat this area, ntah ape dia borak I tak tau, but later, bile I tengok gambar.. ni lah hasilnya dari Emir



sempat tu "flirting" kakak-kakak kat sini.. 



See.. siap ade gambar staff buat peace lagi Emir ambik haha.. (bagus ni untuk masuk contest :p). While waiting for our main course, we have been served with Strawberry Sherbet .. sedap!! Again, Emir pun dapat portion dia and he finished it all.. mak paknyer tok sah cakap la kan.. balun!!!



Actually kiterang eager nak tengok macam mane rupe our main course kan.. haa ni I order.. I was contemplating nak order ni atau sea bass..Tapi Seabass kat rumah pun i masak, so baiklah i order something yang i tak masak kat rumah.. plus i sekarang ni pun dah avoid red meat, tapi kali ni belasahh je..once a while heheh.. This is Roasted Barramundi Fillet served with Kailan and Star Anise Sauce



and ni Hubby punye.. menarik?? I rasa menarik!! otak udang tu perghhhh yummylicious hehe.. Name order hubby.. Fillet Mignon paired with Seaweed Butter Blue Leg Prawn and Mushroom Ragout



 Sangat full ok, nampak portion kecik je, tapi very filling.. mase ni i dah terduduk dah.. kenyang giler, tapi hubby sempat order coffee lagi tu.. Emir cakap the biscuit tu sedap.. he ate it all..



Menyandar I Ok, was thinking macam mane lah nak sumbat dessert ni.. tapi dah part of allocated entitlement kan.. haruslah merasa semua.. So I ordered this Apple Crumble with Madagascan Vanilla Ice Cream, Peanut & Almond Crumbs.. sedap!!! I simply love the presentation, pinggan bukan main besar tapi ade hole tengah2..



Tapi the presentation, tak boleh lawan hubby punye, first time tengok orang letak gelas sebesar ni.. Emir pulak excited tengok strawberries, he just love strawberries!! Kalau ade jamu strawberries, kalau boleh semua dia nak habiskan.. I ordered Lime Caramel Choc & Biscuit Strudel and Fresh Berries served with Hot Lime Caramel for hubby..  



Tengoklah gelas dia menarik kan.. ni i tak sempat nak merasa, tapi since Emir tak berminat dengan i punye, but could sit still with his father, mesti sedap punye tu..



There goes the bill.. Total - RM309.40, tak denyer I nak keluar belanje banyak ni  untuk dua orang makan hehe.. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!



Walau macam mane fine dining pun, my two heroes masih dengan hobi masing-masing.. Sorang pegang Galaxy Tab tak habis-habis.. sorang lagi dengan kamera...



Honestly, serious best!! I cakap dekat laki i, this is one of the best prize I have ever received!!
