Weekend BBQ Fest @ Flamingo Hotel
Apr 3rd
I gotta say, for the first day, they aren’t too bad.. But honestly, I find the people here are very different (and its only Ampang!). Bad thing is that they don’t attend to your needs. Anyway, besides the service, the best part is that you get to use their paddle boat, canoe and swimming pool for free.
From next week onwards, the BBQ will start at 4pm till 10pm and the facilities are available from 4pm till 7pm. Mondays till Fridays are also open for the BBQ Fest from 6.30pm till 10pm.
Adults – RM55++
Child – RM25++
Another choice besides the BBQ Fest would be the Buffet Hi-Tea @ Sultani Restaurant.Open on Saturdays and Sundays, from 12 noon till 4pm
Adult – RM38
Child – RM25

Casual table setting
3 Bugee to transport you to the BBQ area if you do not wish to walk under the blazing sun.
They have quite a number of selections for salad. Really.. They also have mash potato! I ate it without the sauce though, as the sauce hasn’t arrive yet but it still taste good. (I’m odd .. I know)
Choose your meat and grill!
The chefs are so cute. They wear cute rainbow coloured aprons just to make us smile wider. (:
They have 3 BBQ pits. One hot plate and 2 grills.
Perfect for family bonding time! (:
The same cake but in different forms..
Including this one. Ohhhh. So much cream.
Fruit Tarts
Paddle Boat Ride.
Canoeing.
I find it too hot to do paddle boating. Thank god they are changing their BBQ Fest time to 4pm to 10pm.
The Sultani Restaurant that serves Moghul cuisine.
The weird part is, the interior looks very North Indian with Malay decor. Oddest part, they have tables like the Chinese round tables with the spinning table in the middle.
Outside.
They have rojak!
Fish and chips
Mini Burgers
Tandoori as well.
A really bad accident @ Lebuhraya DUKE. Lucky it’s a tiny jam.

To be very honest, I hate being at launches. It’s like a place where you can’t act natural, can’t be at your best, can’t have proper conversations and the list goes on.. There were so many paparazzi too! The song by Lady Gaga just went on in my head when I see them ordering the chefs and telling them how to pose. Anyway, they had a group of portugeese performers to sing and dance for us. Really lively people. After speeches and all that, we left our tables to get our food! Before I get on with the food, I want to show you a few pictures of my friends. Teehee.
Cindy bought a new pretty pencil box.
Did I mention I had tons of her photos in my comp? Well, I just did. I think my comp has more photos of her than photos of me. Really!!! Anyway, I like this picture a lot.

Champagne Brunch Buffet @ Vincenzo, One Bangsar
Sep 27th
On Sunday, me and my mum went to Vincenzo in One Bangsar (tel: 2287 1686) for a champagne brunch. It was incredible.. (: Just the selective type of buffet my mum and I like. The champagne was quite alright too.
It was a small buffet brunch so we finished eating quite fast. But the small selection of food was more satisfying than some bigger buffet spreads. Although there are a few items that contain ingredients I dislike, I like them cause they taste good.
The buffet price is RM98++ per person with 2 glasses of champagne, free flow of sparkling brut (like champagne), wine, mocktails and RM68++ per person (no alcohol) with free flow of mocktails. Parking is easy too, free next to the restaurant. Every Sunday from 11.30am to 2.30pm.
Children between 3-10 years old pay only RM10 for a children’s menu with nuggets, french fries, mini burgers, mini sausages, pizza and mocktail or cordial drink.

Fruit Punch
Mocktail made of pineapple, orange and grenadine syrup
I can’t even taste the pineapple, yet it taste great! (I dislike pineapples)

Sparkling Brut, White Wine, Fruit Punch and a selection of appetizers.
The sparkling bruit is definitely my preference than the gossett.



Prawn cocktail


Smoked salmon with lemon
This is so nice! This is so nice! (I’m a huge fan of smoked salmon with lemon) Except.. I never tried eating this in cube form.. *Raising eyebrow

Aubergine (brinjal) salsa
This is suprisingly nice. I am not a fan of brinjals yet this taste great. Maybe it’s the salsa sauce..



Turkey ham roll with celery
I dislike celery. But this goes very well with the celery.

Beef carparcio with baby tomatoes
I like this. It sort of makes you want to go get some more.



Sausages with capsicum for children


Penne (pasta) salad with pepperoni sausage and olives and rocket leaves


Soup with croutons and chopped spring onions
Nice hot soup on a rainy Sunday afternoon? Just perfect.


From left to right: mushroom, pepperoni and hawaiian

Mini hamburgers for young brunch-ers

Roast leg of lamb with thyme jus
Oh my. Oh my, oh my. This is faboulous. I regret not having some more..

Seafood thermidor with seabass, squid, prawns and mussels


Amarula creme pudding and lychee mousse
The both dessert has a little alcohol in them. (Tip: Dessert cups with handles contain alcohol)


Strawberry pudding and passionfruit jelly
The Passionfruit jelly is nice.
