Thanks to the great folks at Pizza Hut, we got invitation to savour their new products! I guess I have to say kudos to them for taking the initiative and explore the possibilities of social media using blogs (yes, blogs are considered part of SM too!), Facebook fan page among other things. Much thanks to Lawrence Ding for making this happen!

As usual the usual peeps were invited, their post mentioned below (i’m probably the last one to blog about this, heh) so do pay them a visit for better pictures and descriptions. As for me, I prefer to make you salivate with my own personal angle at these yummylicious food, starting from yummy Honey BBQ Wings!

Okay I think the pictures are everywhere but what the heck! Here’s the latest Crunchy Cheesy Bites to whet your appetite. The reason for the shape is so that you can stick in one finger-sized crunchy sticks into your mouth easily, and proceed to chew smoothly! If you’re daring, you can even eat the prawn shells, like I did :p

God this is so awesome. Spicy BBQ Chicken Wings.

You can definitely see the food piling up, they were pretty generous

The usual favourites were presented as well, no complains there. Beef Pepperoni Pizza

To show that Pizza Hut wasn’t just about Pizzas and their famous chicken wings, we were also encouraged t o try their baked dishes, in which case, this is their cheese baked meatball dish. Pretty bouncy I must add :p

Then of course they have the Thai Tuna Roll bites as well.

And who can ever escaped the Tempura Calamari Rings, crispy in the outside yet juicy in the inside. A must have

In between, Lawrence setted up a huge ass flat screen TV to show us their new ads, and even described how it was made! What a documentary… but of course there was a reason for this: their latest competition to win laptops, flat screen LCDs and much more!

Check it out, more at their Facebook fan page.

If you thought that was just it, you’re wrong! The Maju Junction Mall Pizza Hut team even prepared a few strips of the famous TRIPLE CHEESE STICKS just before they get melted inside the Crunchy Bites base! Made of three different cheeses; Parmesan, Cheddar and Mozarella, they were nothing short but HEAVENLY! What an experience

Jess showing how super stretchy it is lol!

Ken showing how yummylicious it is, eating it just like that lol!

Tasting the Triple Cheese sticks, everyone including our dear witch is full of happy face

Pizzas,  Chicken Wings, Cheese Bake,  Tempura, what else?

Pastas of course, this is their Prawn Olio.

And the Chicken Meatball Bolognaise. Honestly I prefer the latter more than the former,  but that’s cause I prefer more tasty food! What’s your taste?

Finally, the Creamy Carbonara which is the crowd favourite. Confirm la, it’s the most fattening of all ma :p

Anyway the day also coincided with Wilson’s birthday, and though it was evil of me not to wish him throughout the day, it was part and parcel of the plan to surprise him that night. He was surprised for sure, and we were all happy for him.  Once again it was many thanks to Pizza Hut for being able to cater for a birthday celebration, very flexible of them to go through lengths to make sure we’re happy

So, happy birthday Wilson!! You definitely made the right choice to spend your birthday with us

This was all made possible thanks to the great hospitality at Maju Junction Mall’s Pizza Hut branch. I wish all of the others would learn from them, especially on the politeness and friendliness of the staff there. Besides that we also got to tell of our good and bad experiences with Pizza Hut from both delivery and eating in angles so that Pizza Hut could work on the feedback to make a better experience for us, and that was certainly a good way to start customer relationships.

In the end, from coming to taste the latest products of what Pizza Hut came to offer, we left with a satisfied, all round great “Getting to know the bloggers” meet and I think all of us were very happy to receive free vouchers as well as a beautifully made 4Gb Thumbdrive from Pizza Hut for us to use. Now, tell me, what other restaurants would go through this amount of effort to make sure their customers are happy? KUDOS Pizza Hut, hope you will continue to support us as we will support you!

La Casa, found at Desa Park City’s only mini shopping centre, is a place for an interesting palate review. The owner and chef does not only concentrate on giving you authentic Italian cuisine, they do have their own specialties as well, home bred through the experience they have gathered over the years and unashamed to display it via their menu. Tired as I am, let me give you a brief walk on the dishes that they have to offer!

The Greek salad was, well, solid enough with the right ingredients all chopped up and garnished in garlic olive oil, littered with olives and feta cheese. I personally am not a fan of salad, much less the Greek ones, but hey it might just rock your boat!

Thereafter we had Pumpkin Soup, which was very heartwarmingly nice. The warm and savoury soup did do wonders to whet our appetite, and the crunchy croutons lent a different texture to it too as it soaked the soup up.

WARNING: This is NOT a main dish, as all of us suspected. This appetizer, ALSO A SOUP, is the Oxtail Soup that all of us came to LOVE! Filled generously with lots of meat and soup boiled to gravy-like texture served with a toast of bread, how can one NOT ask for more? Truly a wonderful soup to have, and the portion is not to say small either

Lorina’s Sparkling Blueberry Lemonade, by the way, was a very nice drink. It’s my first time seeing this sold at a restaurant and so I took it, and to be honest its taste is quite commendable, so do give it a try! For one thing, it definitely went well with my second most favourite dish of the day, the Pan Fried Salmon in Salsa sauce. It’s so amazing that it’s hard to describe, but needless to say I even licked the plate dry for all it’s worth

The Duck Confit was alright, maybe a tad salty for my tastes but at least the pasta was springy, and the sundried tomato (homemade, by the way) made up for it. In fact, I finished the sun dried tomato but unfortunately left the others untouched.

Thereafter the Lamb Shank was served with rice and MORE sun dried tomatos YUM! (ok obviously i’m getting too excited about them tomatos :P) The lamb meat wasn’t tough as it looked, and it was pretty awesome to chew it together with the red sauce that it came with. Definitely a taster to be reckoned with.

Start with the Spaghetti Bolognese and Meatballs for a filling meal. The meatballs are special, in a sense that it combines finely chopped beef and herbs all freshly mixed and stuffed with cheese inside, so that once cooked the cheese would melt it’s way to form

the ball as you see! Try it out yourselves

Then of course, one must always try having the pizza where there are pizzas available! Interestingly enough every restaurant that serves pizza has their own mix and dough, giving each a unique texture and taste that you could learn to identify. We had their specialty, which includes generous portions of mushrooms, tomato, turkey ham, bacon bits and pineapple!

I can’t remember the name, but this was one of the better pizzas I ate. Price wasn’t too ludicrous too if I’m not wrong. and look at the melted cheese, now that’s what i call a PIZZA!

Large size for comparison on my face wtf. Oh by the way, don’t leave yet cause we haven’t even started with the desserts

Tiramisu. Now. Usually we’d have an overly powdery topping ontop of the Tiramisu, but in this case it was just a perfect layer, and with a spoonful of it one case enjoy the texturised sensation of the powdery choco shake, double whipped cream inside and chunky portions from within! Truly a taste to behold.

There is a secret to this dessert. Made entirely out of Sesame seed-based ingredients, this creamy sesame flavoured dessert isn’t just for anybody. One must have a fine taste for an out-of-the-ordinary flavour in order to appreciate it, so if you are thinking of trying it out, do it with an open mind. I guarantee you it’s something out of this world that could have selective preferences

But of course, chocolate lovers would definitely go for the Chocolate Mousse, creamy balls inside in contrast with the wafer-like crunchy craters on top, with a couple of chick dollops of white chocolate under another frosty wafer of chocolate, topped with Almond nuts.

Enough said?

As Chinese New Year looms upon us all, major shopping malls have just stored away their Christmas decorations, to be replaced by even more fancy CNY festive decorations! One such scene is the scene you got above.

It wasn’t long before I got caught into this one in, shouting among shouts abt their new pizza called the Golden Fortune Cheesy Crown. LIKE WTH RIGHT!
It didn’t take me long to get seated and the next thing i knew, the waitress was called, pizza ordered and there I was alone thinking how was i supposed to finish a regular pizza all by myself.

This was a sneak preview on how the pizza looks. Needless to say it opened up the dam in my mouth.

I stole this menu to put it up in my office cubicle, cause it’s all cute and that. Don’t you think so? That tantalizing shot of the pizza coupled with the design of the meny, so CNY-ish!

I even tested taking photos while waiting, just so that there won’t be any awkwardness with people staring later, wondering what on earth was I trying to do. On hindsight my actions could have made them think that I was stealing their pizza idea!

Finally the arrival of the main guest commenced, and there I was staring down at it. Somehow I really, really missed those days when we were served pizza inside these black pans, now that’s what I call authenticity! Then I reminded myself this was a flat crust pizza. DARN. I really love thick pan crusts. While most people throw them away I actually gobble these down in glee!

Just for comparison sake I took one piece out of the circle, and hold it up against my palm. As you can see, regular ain’t so regular after all, the portion was pretty small! But I was still fascinated by the shape of the whole damn thing lol. Filled with chunks of tuna, crabmeat stick and other seafood-y stuff, how appetizing to!

At least one thing’s for sure, their tempura prawns were generously scattered throughout the pizza. If there were just a miserable small number of it, us as the customers would have noticed and suddenly prosperity wouldn’t have sounded like its meaning should have now, would it? lol

Without further ado I took my first bite at it. You know what blew me away? The tangy mayonnaise, pineapple and the prawn tempura! What a combination of flavour! I was so certain I could finish the whole damn thing, nevermind that the base wasn’t made out of the typical tomato-based sauce, or that the little cheese-pouch crust looks too heavy for full consumption by just one person!

But it was, and soon I started trying out how to finish them without feeling over-powered by those powerfully packed pouch of cheesie goodness. This includes adding chilli on top of it. This wasn’t too bad, kinda adds to the sweetness actually. I don’t have much of a sweet tooth but I do like a wonderful mix of flavours to tantalize my taste buds!

Though that didn’t fully do the trick for me. Soon I was getting bored with the taste and texture. Too much of the same thing does that to you. I proceeded to just take really yummy shots of them individual pieces without eating them.

Already in my head I knew I had to take these away, and maybe consume it in the office. Which I did, but unfortunately even time didn’t help; the bungkused portion was eventually brought home and stuffed in the fridge, which still remains in the same position until today. Guess it was reaaallly too filling for one person, and now that i’ve tried it, albeit too much, I probably wouldn’t wanna taste it again anytime soon.

Lesson learned? Do NOT attempt to have a regular sized pizza on your own because it’s not that you won’t be able to finish it, you’d just feel so “muak” for eating the same thing over and over again that your body will reject it simply altogether lol.

That was about it really. I love this place though, one of the few Pizza Huts in town to actually look classy.

Then again, everything at Pavilion was classy. Just tag the word “Signature” on it and you get a 6-star design with all our fast-food restaurants established in it. Kinda interesting if you took note of this fact a while back And you would do good to notice that McDonalds couldn’t be part of this plan, I wonder why

In any case, the total amount spent was RM30-ish, definitely way over budget! I was fine though, cause I really just wanted to give it a test try, and doing it alone was kind of cool, with all those waiter and waitresses staring at you thinking if you were some kind of bigshot. Even other customers couldn’t resist taking a peek on this guy who was camwhoring while enjoying his food, as if he was in his own world. Which I was really

There’s just something about CNY that affects everyone, and for this case, it was for the better. And with this entry, it’ll mark a season of CNY dinners for time to come. I’d like to wish everyone good luck in trying to slim down before putting on noticeable weight at the end of the day!!
