Q-Thai @ Kompleks Antarabangsa, KL

This restaurant is located in Kompleks Antarabangsa which is just a foot away from Raja Chulan monorail station. From the main lobby, you walk straight until the end and you will notice this Thai restaurant. Business is good especially during lunch time on weekdays.

Taste:6/10(Moderate. We ordered set lunch and it comes with one main course and either tom yam soup or ice lemon tea. I am dissapointed with their tom yam soup. All of us complaint that it is too salty. Maybe they cook it using sea water. Overall, their food is just ok. I think the only outstanding menu would be the green curry chicken. Others is just normal. I am not happy with the service here as we all have to wait for almost 1 hour to get our food. I know it is crowded but 1 hour is just too outrageous).
Price:6/10(Moderate. The set lunch cost me RM10.20).


Pineapple fried rice. The fried rice is not standarize. Sometimes they put it in pineapple but sometimes they put it on plate.

Thai style fish head bee hoon soup.

Green curry chicken with mango salad rice.

Green curry bee hoon soup. Wah, so many "chili padi". Make sure you are able to sustain the spicyness...

Mixed vegetarian bee hoon soup. Full of colourful vegetables.

The Dark Night

Oops... I think it is a bit too late for me to review this film. Its hard to get good seat for this movie though. However, this is a good movie and worth to watch. The Joker character is outstanding and might probably win the greatest villain. You will like this movie if you like "The Silence of The Lamb". Good dialog accompany with good facial expression, makes The Joker a great villain.

With just one year having passed after taking out Ra's Al Ghul's plan to have Gotham eliminated and the mysterious disappearance of Dr. Jonathan Crane AKA the Scarecrow, and after the city was nearly plundered with his toxins, Bruce Wayne and his vigilante alter-ego the Batman, continue the seemingly endless effort to bring order to Gotham, with the help of Lt. James Gordon and newly appointed District Attorney Harvey Dent. But a new threat has now emerged into the streets. The Dark Knight faces a rising psychopathic criminal called The Joker, whose eerie grin, laughter, and inhuman morality makes him as dangerous than what he has yet to unleash. It becomes an agenda to Batman to stop the mysterious Joker at all costs, knowing that both of them are in an opposite line. One has no method at all and seeks to see the world plunge into the fire he has yet to light. One represents the symbol of hope and uses his own shadow to bring the peace and order he has yet to accomplish doing. Review from www.imdb.com

My Rating:9/10(You will feel suspense from second half of the movie for every minute you watch this movie. The Joker has many weird ideas of doing sinister. Exploding a hospital, poisoning a commisioner, kills judge's wife and telling great story about his life before killing his rival. Go to watch it in cinema while you still have chance!)

Canton-i @ 1-Utama, Bandar Utama Petaling Jaya

Canton-i serves contonese style food. It is a subsidiary of Dragon-i chain restaurant. Currently, there is only one Canton-i restaurant. It is in 1-Utama shopping mall. In my opinion, Canton-i serves better food when compared to Dragon-i. Hopefully, Canton-i food standard won't drop when they open more outlets in the future(opening soon in The Gardens Midvalley). They are famous for they roast pork and wanton mee. Their roast chicken and roast pork is good. The meat is juicy and tender. Their fish congee, fried carrot cake and beef siew mai are also delicious. What's more exciting is that you can request to sit near the open kitchen so that you can see how your mee are made/prepared while you eating.

Taste:8/10(Delicious. Everything we ordered seems good except the small pau which is still not up to my standard).
Price:3/10(Expensive. Most of the dishes are priced between RM10-RM20. Ordering one main dish, appetizer and drink can cost around RM30 per pax).


Canton-i open kitchen.

Reception area. The restaurant is quite small though and cramped.

Roast pork(char siew).

Their famous roasted pork wanton mee.

Pig shape pau. Looks cute. I think it is stuff with red bean.

p/s: Wow! I saw Daniel Lee of Malaysian Idol dine here with a girl. I didn't spot it at first, but my mom recognize the face and told me.
