After 'Snowflake' taking the dessert scene by storm, now is time for the ever popular 'bubble tea' turn to stir up the drinks category a bit... There are three very famous players in this category now namely 'Gong Cha' and 'Chatime' which is from 'Taiwan' (the birth place of bubble tea) and last but not least, 'Ochado' which is from 'Japan' if I'm not mistaken...

So which is the best among these three heavy weight??? 

I will start with my least favourite one... And the honours goes to 'Chatime'... Quite frankly, I don't really get the hype of 'Chatime'... I've tried a few of their drinks and I can tell you that it was pretty awful!!! 'Chocolate Hazelnut' above was one of the worst I've tried... So I don't really understand why people are still queueing up for it??? Frankly speaking, 'Cool Blog' is much better and not forgetting a lot cheaper...

Second place goes to 'Ochado'... The taste of their tea is definitely more superior compare to 'Chatime' which tasted like crap... One of the drink to try out when you patron 'Ochado' next time is their 'Okinawa Matcha Milk Tea'... Their matcha is really fragrance and flavourful... ('Chatime' offer something really similar... try it and let me know what you think!!! I've tried and definitely not impressed by it!!!) 

And the first place goes to 'Gong Cha'!!! Actually, it is really hard to determine the winner between 'Ochado' and 'Gong Cha'... Very close battle if you ask...

So what makes 'Gong Cha' number one??? Their signature winter melon milk drink!!! I'm not a BIG fan of winter melon drink but the moment I tried 'Gong Cha' winter melon milk drink, I'm hooked and there is no turning back for me... I want more of it!!! Their signature milk tasted really awesome and not forgetting very milky which is something I really like... There are three ways for you to indulge... First open the lid and take a sip of the milk... Second method is to drink the winter melon drink without mixing with the milk and lastly (which is the one I prefer) stir and mix up the milk with the winter melon drink...

This is one of our favourite restaurant for dinner... Usually we went there for 'bak kut teh' and steamed fish head... Although their core business is selling 'bak kut teh', but it seems that the steamed fish head is more famous than the 'bak kut teh'... 

I'm not sure about others but I must have soy sauce + dark soy sauce when I'm eating 'bak kut teh'... 

'Bak kut teh'... Frankly speaking, their 'bak kut teh' is definitely not the best around but still better than most that I've tried...

This is our first time trying their chilli steamed fish head... Normally we will ordered the normal one which is with garlic and ginger instead of chilli... The normal one tasted much nicer compare to this...

 Vegetables...

Stir-fry pig's kidney, liver and intestine...

Overall Rating - 3.9/5

Sorry no address as I didn't manage to get a namecard from the owner... 'Sin Manli' is located along the same road with the famous 'Tak Fok Hong Kong Seafood' restaurant... 

This is the decorations at '1 Utama' shopping complex... Nothing special and definitely underwhelming if you compare it to the previous two that I had posted... Quite disappointed!!! (Sorry for the short update as I'm still in my holiday mood!!!)

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!!

You can be the judge and tell me which is nicer in terms of decorations... 'Pavilion', 'Mid Valley' or 'Gardens'???  In my humble opinion, I believe 'Pavilion' win this round again... Frankly speaking, the giant lantern in 'Mid Valley' and 'Gardens' look nice, but it is not enough to defeat 'Pavilion'...

But the person sitting on the rope is more spectacular compare to the giant lanterns!!! Just look at him sitting there without any harness!!! I don't know how the hell he ended up there in the middle!!!

 A close up!!! This guy have balls!!! Not some ordinary one I guess!!!

 Close up view of the giant lantern with more miniature lanterns in it...

The lantern decorations in 'Gardens' is slightly different compare to the one found in 'Mid Valley'... Much simple looking and the scale have been tone down a few notch!!!
