Orchid Room, Majestic Hotel

The Orchid Room Tea Lounge at Majestic Hotel is simply beautiful. It is like you're having your afternoon tea in an orchid garden except there are no mosquitoes flying around being fed. (Such a typical Malaysian way of thinking)

We were there a couple of weeks ago. Yes I know, I haven't been blogging all these while. 

Here is one picture that makes all the wait worth for ;

The feminine side of me pouring their special mix-blended tea so very gently. I feel so Mulan here when she was pouring the tea for the match maker.

I'm not a fan of scones but this is really amazing compared to the others I've tried before. I love the blueberry cheesecake too but it was really disappointingly small though. One thing about afternoon tea is that you're not supposed to fill up your tummy but this set just made us bloated. This was what we'd shared between two ;

With my always partner in crime;

With Bernice, she's pretty isn't she;

With Mingli at the back seat;

Just to add-on, the Orchid room only had three tables and it's located by the corridor. So when you're eating, you're kind of expected to put the foods into your mouth to entertain the passerby. Otherwise, the whole environment is lovely. 

Here are pictures of us; 

That really was one of the most lovely evening. x

Next update coming soon! (I hope)

Have a great dinner everyone.

Exeter Adventure

Hello there, just so you know, 

I'VE FINISHED MY EXAMS ! WOOT WOOT WOOT :D

Which kind of explains why I'm not updating a lot as I've been doing a lot lately, like being productive. This is so me. *flips hair* I can be really bimbo sometimes. 

One of the nights when Steph and I went out ; 

 Our last meal together in Oxford, with hangout buddies & James ;

If you're following me on Instagram, you should know that I was at Exeter the other day. If you don't, follow me now! :p 

Yes, so Steph and I went to Exeter yesterday and I came back today while she stayed back for a while. 

While waiting for the train, gotta make full use of time to take pictures ;

These were from this afternoon, woke up and head out to the city for lunch. Exeter is really, really a beautiful place. I wanted to stayed a little longer but I had things to do back in Oxford. I would really recommend to visit Exeter.

 With our matching hair braids ;

We didn't know what to eat so I chose this really fancy Italian restaurant, Carluccio's. I really wasn't gonna choose it but they have this really, really massive pink meringue at the window so we went in. 

 Mushroom soup with Pancetta (Bacon in Italian), new word I've learnt from the waitress who seemed to believe that we're Italian cause she kept using that word to us ; 

Fritto Misto, mixture of calamari, little prawns, anchovies and prawn-looking lobster ;

 Spinach ravioli ;

 Warm chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream ;

Panna Cotta ;

I don't know if you've noticed, but we really looked happier with our desserts rather than our mains. It is really satisfying and we didn't feel really bloated/sick full from the meal but it's more like a satisfying full. Really would recommend people to eat there. A visit there once in a while is really worth it. 

We walked around the city and got ourselves bubble tea, which is really tasty. They have different flavors of bubbles and it pops when you bite them. They aren't the same typical black, chewy ones. I highly recommend the pomegranate and lychee ones. DELICIOUS.

Hello there with our bubble teas ;

Have a nice summer!
