BRAVO! Cucina Italiana

朋友DaDa介紹我去試BRAVO,
After 我瘋狂shopping後, 晚餐就在這搞定。
Dada特別推薦龍蝦湯, 我就order這個作appertizer~

Lobster Bisque

湯很濃稠, 有點太咸, 這上桌時也不夠熱, 所以沒有太愛,
當Server問我們的湯怎樣, 我們如實的答:  it's quite salty,
結帳時發現這湯由$5.49減到$3.99, 服務也太好了吧!!!

Signature Dish:  Pasta BRAVO!

這Pasta的醬汁是由甜紅椒與忌廉調成的, 香甜而不膩, 我也希望自己懂得弄這醬,
有幾塊鷄肉乾了點, 但味道是好的, rigatoni煮得剛好, 有咬感, al dente~

Lemon Shrimp Florentine Pasta

雖說Pasta Bravo是Signature Dish, 但這道鮮蝦意大利麵更可口,
現在是春天, 所以吃這個更為適合, 檸檬忌廉汁令人開胃, 一口接一口~
下次會再光臨這, 試其他意大利麵~

Cheesecake Factory (revisit)

http://www.thecheesecakefactory.com/
其實這間餐廳不是十分的好吃,
卻每次也有很多人在, 滿滿的客人,
菜式的味道真的很American, 份量也特大,
我想因為是大份又抵食吧!?
(Oh...可是他們家的芝士蛋糕一點也不便宜, 差不多US$7一件 。)

Lunch Special: Caesar Salad + Hawaiian Pizza

我們到Baffalo的第一站是Walden Galleria, 午餐就在這了!
那個套餐的Caesar Salad也太大份了吧!?  醬汁也極多(肥死我!!!)
Pizza的餅皮是夠薄, 烘得卻不脆, 可能太多cheese而軟趴趴的, 味道也普通,
如果下次有機會再來, 一定不order Pizza!

漢堡可能是這裏最美味的, 這個mushroom melt熊說肉汁很juicy, 外脆內嫩~
看她吃得這麼香, 下次我也要試試(踫巧這個月我不吃牛)。
甜薯條香又脆, 我倆都喜歡, 吃啊吃啊, 就全沒了~

Craig's Crazy Carrot Cake Cheesecake

這個carrot cheesecake成為這裏我最favorite的芝士蛋糕, Cheesecake與Carrot Cake超配~

之前試過Original、Godiva Chocolate、Pineapple Upside Down~

外賣了Brownie Sundae Cheesecake與Original給二嫂和媽媽。

(之後再寫Brownie Sundae的味道~)

台味軒 WEI's Taiwanese Food Inc

http://www.weistaiwanesefoods.com/
一直想到台味軒試試, 趁著這段空閒時間去了~
店好像只在11am-3pm營業, 逢星期二休息。
熊介紹這店時, 我以為是一間有珍珠奶茶與小吃的店,
到了才知是一間台式便當店, 主要是做外帶的,
店裏只有三張小桌子, 我想只有我們會在那裏坐。
Opening hours is 11am-3pm everyday, except Tuesday(usual day off).
When Bear told me about this place, I thought it's for bubble tea and snack.
It's actually a place selling Taiwanese Bento, mainly for take-out.
This place only has 3 little tables and few old chairs, not a comfy place to eat in.
However,  if you are there to eat deep-fried fermented tofu, you got no choice but sit there.
(I guess no one wants to get this "wonderful" aroma in one's vehicle.)

鹽酥鷄便當Crispy chicken Bento

鹽酥鷄是外脆內嫩 而且不油~
便當可以選三種小菜, 我們的是茄子、豆干與蕃茄蛋。
Crispy Chicken is nicely deep-fried, juicy and not oily.
For the Bento, you can choose 3 different side dishes.
We chose Eggplant, Bead curd and Egg with Tomato.

Freshly deep fried Stinky Tofu

雖然魏家臭豆腐常在夜市吃到 ,
但到店裏吃還是不一樣的, 由於沒有一大條人龍在趕,
他們有足夠的時間去炸與處理臭豆腐,
外表比夜市的好看, 口感也比夜市的脆~
Eating Wei's deep-fried fermented tofu in night market is different than in store.
Here we won't have a long line-up, they got enough time to do the deep fry.
Since freshly deep-fried got enough time to settle, they are crisp at the outer crust and so soft inside.
Great texture~  better than the night market one~

Cakeview Bakery & Cafe 楓林餅店

楓林的芒果蛋糕超讚 !!!
超市有著一箱箱的芒果熱賣中,芒果季節到了!!!
第一時間想到甚麼？當然不是自己弄甜點，
而是跑去楓林餅店，他們的鮮芒蛋糕真的超棒的!
鬆軟綿密的sponge cake, 淡淡忌廉, 甜味就來自芒果。
自從在上年吃過一次就念念不忘，這蛋糕只在芒果旺季才有,
我早在上年已決定要吃個滿足，今天五月八曰先吃二零一二的第一囗！！！
楓林這店小小的，
可他家的華爾滋奶酪布丁包與鮮芒果蛋糕是我十分喜愛的麭麭與甜點~

Mango Cake from Cakeview Bakery & Cafe is my favorite!!!
Mango season has been arrived and there are lots of mangoes in supermarket.
What comes to my mind when I see boxes of mangoes?
I immediately run to Cakeview Bakery to order their Fresh Mango Cake.
The sponge cake is porous, light and fluffy, layered with whipping cream and fresh mangoes.
I only ate this cake once in last summer, I miss it very much.
This cake is only available in summer time when it is mango season.
I decided to eat as MANY as I want this year, today May 8th, 2012 i have my first bite~
This small bakery got the best Mango Cake.  And their cheese pudding bun is my favorite too.

南亞 South Asia Malaysian Cuisine

咖喱鷄+薄餅 Curry Chicken + Roti

蝦麵 Noodle in Shrimp Broth

本來想去台味軒, 但它逢星期二休息,
我們就去了南亞吃咖喱鷄薄餅+蝦麵~
中午也有不少人在吃,
很多人選了海南鷄飯,
下次我也要試試~
(但是每次我也受蝦麵誘惑...)
Originally we are planned to go Wei's Taiwanese Food Inc.
However, Tuesday is their usual day off.
So we decided to eat Curry chicken + Roti and Noodle in shrimp broth at South Asia Malaysian Cuisine.
There are quite a lot of people having lunch there. 
And most of them order the Hainanese chicken rice, maybe I'll try that next time.
(But everytime I got seduced by the noodle in the shrimp broth...)

蝦湯底好甜啊~
(不知道用了多少蝦殼去餚煮呢?)
如果那參巴醬再加多點, 就更好~~~
配料有蝦, 鷄肉, 鷄蛋, 通菜,
加上油麵與米粉, 好吃!!! 
The Shrimp Broth is so savory~
(How many shrimp shells are put there to simmer?)
If more sambals sauce, it'll taste better~
Ingredients have Shrimp, Chicken, Boiled egg and  Tong Choi, Noodle and Rice vermicelli.
It tastes really good!!!

薄餅夠酥~~~
咖喱汁好吃, 但鷄肉不是嫩的,
我想是烹煮太久吧!?
應該有一大窩在廚房吧!?
Roti is crispy~
Curry is tasty, but chicken is over cooked.
I think because it stews for a long time!?
There is a big pot of curry chicken in kitchen!?

Windsor Arm Afternoon Tea (revisit)

今日到Windsor Arm 去兌現我那張在teambuy買的優惠,
本以為在平日會比較不忙, 可以悠閒的享受下午茶,
誰知道滿滿的都是人, 這次只好坐在廳中間的一張小桌,
桌子是置在兩廳通道的門口, 感覺是挺奇怪的,
上年就是幸運的坐在窗邊, 還有沙發呢~
沒有像上年那樣狂拍照, 因為食物也是一個樣, 沒變!!!
三文治也是青瓜、煙三文魚與鷄沙拉。
Today went Windsor Arm to redeem the coupon I got  from teambuy.
I thought weekday won't be so busy as everyone should be working?
I planned to enjoy a relaxing afternoon tea there, however it was full house today.
And I sit near a door that between the two tea room, feeling quite weird.

味道不像上次那樣驚為天人的美味, Tea sandwiches are quite soggy有點濕濕的,
餡料配合的味道是好的, 面包卻有點太濕。
幸好Scone是鬆軟的, 很香 ~

Devon Cream, Raspberry Jam, Strawberry Jam

而且有鮮果醬, Devonshire (or Devon) Cream 塗在一起吃。

甜品是漂亮, 卻真的不是我所喜愛的。

Long Vacation的開始

第一天的假期開始了，生理時鐘已習慣六點半起床，做了一件一直想做的事-就是弄一頓早餐與家人吃！昨天上完長笛課，跟二嫂去Longo買食材。

第一層是finger sandwich (青瓜芝士)
第二層是黑森林火腿和黑椒火雞肉三明治
第三層是raisin scone (放了太多牛奶，有點濕濕的! 幸好家人還是很喜歡)
第一次用新火爐，有別於178的火爐，終於知道為什麼每個食譜的第一步驟是Preheat, 這個步驟真的很重要！！！
晚上跟熊熊，DaDa and Sau Sau 去天一吃鐵板燒，那裡變大了裝修也變的高檔了，但食物還是和以前一樣好吃！希望下次可以和家人一起去吃~
