Paddington House of Pancakes @ The Gardens, Mid Valley City

The day we went to watch Skyfall, we had breakfast first in Paddington House of Pancakes. It is considered as one of my favourite haunts because I have really no idea where else to eat o.O The same people are still working there. Wow.

I would declare that this restaurant serves the best carbonara to my liking. I hope the quality doesn't drop as this happens to a lot of eateries. Food are mostly made by humans after all.

The price for the carbonara is RM 15.00


Inside this carbonara, there is a poached egg, chicken bacon and mushrooms. It not not super creamy. Those who doesn't like creamy food can take this. It doesn't make you jelak. The portion is also just nice for a small eater like me. Even for Andrew it was good enough to fill his stomach :)


As I said, we all love carbonara so the four of us ordered that!



My cousin, Qi Wen, ordered the drink called Immune Zoom. What made it special for me was the thin slices of apple stuck on the side of the glass. The picture will explain it better than me XD Inside Immune Zoom, they blend peach, honeydew melon, apple and cranberry. Both of us love to crunchiness of the apple slices after drinking this.
It costs RM 9.50


I ordered Hot Chocolate. Can you guys see the smiley face made using marshmallows?! So cute. The drink was nice but there are better tasting ones out there. The difference is the marshmallow smiley face :) It costs RM 7.50.

Marshmallow Drinks

I'm a marshmallow lover since I was a kid. Maybe it's because my aunt used to buy from overseas to give my family. I love everything from cakes to BBQ marshmallows!

#1 The drink is originally from hot cocoa mix with marshmallows. 

#2 You can buy this from Cold Storage Supermarket for RM 13.99.

#3 This is from the original packet from the Marshmallow Classics.

From the picture, it looks like there are less marshmallows from the #1 pic

I used the other packet that I bought from Singapore which is called Marshmallow Fat Free where there's a lot more marshmallow compared to the Classics' version .

You can see the differences in the following picture.

#4 The Marshmallow Fat Free version that I bought in Singapore. The taste is just lighter & the hot cocoa taste is not as strong as the Classics.


#5 I accidentally threw the box away because just left 1 packet in my kitchen. You can see the separate packets for marshmallow and the hot cocoa mix.

#6 Those marshmallows above is from the fat free version. More marshmallows than the classics version. 



#7 My younger brother wanted to drink too so he
decided to help me boil the milk. He is a good chef anyway & sometimes he'll cook kim chi soup for me to drink.

#8 I used to boil water to make my drinks but this time I boiled milk to put into the drinks. The difference after all was I just felt so full in the stomach until I didn't eat my dinner.



#9 Left side of the cup is Classics & right side of the cup is Fat Free. 


The moment I poured hot milk into the Classics, the marshmallow just melt in seconds. For the Fat Free version, the marshmallows are separated from the cocoa powder so you can dump the marshmallows later.

Fried Oreos

We did say we're food archeologists so I dug up this old photo of yummy fried oreos :D

Let me help you (the attendees) refresh some of the memories of that day!


It all started when one of our friends, Carmen, saw the girls in America's Next Top Models cooking this.
She tried making it and it worked and the wheels started rolling.
A few of us bloggers (well, we got to know each other through blogging) organized a gathering at her place mainly for the fried oreos.

Of course we had other foods as well.
We ordered take away Hokkien fried noodles. .
It was ordered for 20 people but with time 12 of us walloped everything.

We even had junk food. Lots of them stashed under the table.
No one will go hungry :)

Any of the junk food are your favourites? Let us know in the comments!

The picture below will show some of the ingredients needed to make fried oreos.


This happened last year so my memory is a bit rusty.

I believe we need:
Flour
Oreos (of course!!!!)
Water

Here is Carmen frying the oreos :)


Dunk the oreos into your batter and drop them in the frying pan.
Place a kitchen towel on a plate so the excess oil can be soaked up.
Oreos are already sinful enough, fried oreos is sinful times 2! XD
With excess oil is times 3!

We were all waiting for the oreos, with our cameras ready, as usual.
When you eat with us, make sure you don't touch your plate first and wait for a few minutes of flashes.


Oh yeah, do you guys remember Adrian performing magic tricks?
Yes, we did have a magician/ mentalist in the house. LOL.

Image from Kian Fai's blog. Look at the junk food under the table. Overflow...

There was a horror movie showing that day too. It was called The Unborn.

We had a massage train going on while watching that show.


The actress was so jealous or in awe of our massage train...


Everyone got a massage from Elwyn too.
He learnt a few tricks from his friend who was a therapist (If my memory does not fail me)

NO WORRIES
I'm going back to food.

Our dessert was Paddle Pop ice-cream with marshmallows.


To recap, the main attraction was the fried oreos.
