Ben's @ Pavilion

I think most of you heard Ben's restaurant before right? I've always saw other bloggers blog about this restaurant and so I want to give a try like for a long time, so I went there last month for brunch with my cousin sis. :) I can say that the dining ambience there is not bad and cozy, at least I like their couch with fluffy pillow :)





Hot chocolate with marshmallow on top.
RM 8.9 


Iced peach tea.
RM 8.9


Chunky Mushroom soup, with truffle oil and garlic toast.
RM 11.9


Beef Bolagnese Spaghetti, served with parmigiano.
RM 18.9

The spaghetti is really nice, but it also quite large dish, that's why I didn't finish the beef mince. Recommended.

That's all for this post!
XOXO

When western speaks Bahasa Malaysia

As related to the title above, I'm going to tell one of my work experiences here. Last week, I've had done my business deal with a western customer. She is a granny and has blonde hair and blue eyes, and I guess she is from US because her scent sounds like American. After that.......

The conversation between us:

Granny: Ini battery baru?

Me: thinking* baru? Which english word is that?

Granny: Baru, baru, new battery?

Me: Owh, yes, of course!

Then I treat her a glass of mineral water.

Me: Ma'am, this is for you.

Granny: Bagus, I'm in thirsty, Terima Kasih!

Me: Erm, you speak Malay?

Granny: No, is just Bahasa Indonesia!

Me: (=.='') speechless*

Yes, the granny of course can speaks Bahasa Indonesia in Malaysia. Likewise, British can also use their British accent in US, nothing wrongs, both of the countries speak the same language. Yet, I personally think that it actually is a shame on Malaysia because Bahasa Malaysia does not impress the foreigners well like Bahasa Indonesia does.
