After the Walk

Time for a quick lunch after the afternoon walking around the KLPF. Will be blogging about that a bit later, but for now would be downloading some of the snaps at the apartment before returning to Gombak later.

Anita and the boys had been busy with the school assignments which meant no outing this weekend. I was also tasked to find dinner for tonight, to get back before the kick-off at 8.30. United playing Leicester away tonight. Hopefully we can chalk up another win to keep the momentum going.

A Quick Lunch

I cancelled the afternoon clinic and raced through the morning. Saw all my referrals and put aside time in the afternoon for procedures. Somehow, I was free by noon and got a phone call from Anita. She was doing some shopping for Raya in Bangsar.

I decided to join her for lunch.

The traffic had been light all morning since school was already off. And plenty of people had left town for the long weekend. Even though I overslept this morning, I still made it in plenty of time to work this morning. The road was practically empty.

So getting to Bangsar was super quick even during lunch time.

We had a nice meal at Chinoz. Just the two of us. The groceries were for tomorrow's kenduri that we planned. Although most of the meal would be from the caterers, Anita wanted to cook some spaghetti. She also bought some cakes and drinks.

The kenduri tomorrow would be for neighbours and relatives. It was a "kenduri syukur" - Thanksgiving - after the recent illness. I will be off tomorrow, but would be back to do the rounds on Saturday morning. The Saturday clinic had been cancelled though. So just the ward rounds.

Looking forward to the day off and kenduri tomorrow. I heard that it was going to be a wet one .....

Chinoz, Bangsar Shopping Center

On a recent visit to Mid Valley Gardens, we noticed that the Chinoz Cafe in the middle of one of the main foyer had been closed. That was curious considering the demography of the visitors at that neck of the woods. We were more familiar with their branch at KLCC.

The last time we were at Bangsar Shopping Center, we decided to give the Chinoz branch there a visit. We had light lunch and as usual, the boys wanted pizza.

The seating was outdoors, right by the main entranceA nice place for people watching and chill outIrfan enjoying his fruit punchThe menu was similar to the KLCC branch, with pizza, sushi and the usual choices of salad and drinks. They even offer Sunday Roast, just like at KLCC.

We sat at the outdoor bar area, very cosy and suitable for people watching. Seats were very comfortable. The boys selected the sofas. The waiters were very attentive, and took our order very efficiently without even taking notes. Service was very prompt.

I had rocket salad, and a Japanese rice and salmon set for the mains. The boys had their pizza and Anita ordered smoked salmon and avocado salad. Anita's salad was amazing. The menu was also very clear about which food used alcohol in their preparation. No problems there.

My iced coffeeAnita's gorgeous salmon and avocado salad. Highly recommended.Idlan's hot chocolate in a nice little mug.My rocket saladThe boys, with what else, but pizza.Last but not least, my main, which was sushi rice with salmon and miso. Very nice.

My salad and mains were very well-prepared. I really couldn't complain about the food quality. The service was prompt. I would definitely be returning, not just for the food and service, but for the ambiance as well. Highly recommended, although I suspect the place would be packed in the evening.
