Birthday Celebration @Hakka Republic (20 Feb 2009)

My colleagues in NextVIEW treated me for a birthday celebration dinner at Hakka Republic Wine Bar which is located on the second floor of Menara Hap Seng at Jalan P. Ramlee, Kuala Lumpur. Although the restaurant name is Hakka, but it doesn't serve chinese food but western food. It has a story for the name of the restaurant. If you were to dine in there, you may look for the General Manager, Mr. Arby Leong, he would be glad to tell you the story of the restaurant. :)

The variety of the food there is not much but the food is quite nice and the service is extremely good. We were being served for complimentary desserts for testing.

Thanks Alain for organizing a such nice birthday dinner for me. Thanks Fion for the Secret Recipe's chocolate cake. Thanks Alain, Fion, Liu Qiang, Theresa, Winnie and Lau for treating me the dinner. Love you guys so much :*

Birthday Celebration @Elcerdo (20 Feb 2008)

On Monday, my "family members" in my company were asking me for a dinner on yesterday to celebrate my birthday which will be on this coming Friday. They finally decided to have dinner at a pork food restaurant, Elcerdo - nose to tail eating at Werner's place.(http://www.elcerdokl.com/). My friend told me that the owner of this restaurant is a Malaysian lady and her husband is an Austrian. This restaurant served Spanish and German styled food. The area of the restaurant provided jorkey parking at RM10.

The food that we ate were as below which were recommended by the supervisor of the restaurant:

1. Lentil & Vegetable Soup with German Sausage served with bread

2. Jamón Serrano from Spain - Imported High Quality Spanish Cred & Air Dried Ham served on Rock Melon and Salad with Balsamico Dressing

3. Pan Fried Goat Cheese wrapped in Jamon Serrano - Coated in Bread crumbs and fried in Butter & Olive oil served on Salad with Honey & Balsamico Dressing

4. Oven Baked and Smoked Pork Shoulder served with Ravioli and Mushroom Sauce

5. ROASTED SUCKLING PIG “COCHINILLO AL ESTILO SEGOVIANO” Half Piglet served with Bacon Potato,Winter Vegetable and Mustard & Beer Sauce

Because I was the birthday girl, I was requested to use a small plate to chop the half piglet into portions and then I needed to break the plate for luck and love. This is the culture from Spanish. This was our first time to experience their culture.

6. EL CERDO SPECIAL 22% A delectable Digestive consists of `Spirit, Wine and Juices’ My colleague bought me a strawberry birthday cake. After finished our food, my colleagues requested the waiter to serve the cake for me. The restaurant was playing a special mixed birthday song and the waiter was bringing out the birthday cake with a fireworks on it. Everyone were singing me the birthday song. I was so surprised for having a special birthday cake presentation. I was requested to make a wish before I blowing off the candle. One of the waitress told me that the piglet toy was a gift for me in which I need to put it together with me everyday as it will help me to make my wish come true. Putting together with the cake were 7 cups of "Elcerdo Special " wine.

I was happy for having an unforgetable birthday celebration with my colleagues. It was the most expensive birthday dinner that I ever have. The total charges on the bill was RM500++. The environment of the restaurant was nice and comfortable. The waiters and the waitresses were friendly and helpful. But the food was a little bit salty to us Asian people and costly.
