Zest Cafe @ Bangsar South

So my hubby FINALLY redeemed his b’day gift that I got him in January LAST YEAR. To recap – it was 4 sessions of water-skiing in Putrajaya.

He made his way down there on Sunday early morning with my cousins and embarked on an adventure of a life time. Sadly, it will be something he can only talk about with no photos to prove coz my cousin Roshan was too lazy to take photos of him in action.  I would have taken lots of photos IF only I tagged along, alas, a mommy’s gotta sleep in with her little one and to be frank, I would rather sleep in then wake up at a god forbidden time of 8 in the morning to WATCH someone water ski

We woke up at 10.45 a.m that Sunday, baby and I :D And by the time we did, hubby was on the way back from his adventure

For now, he has muscle aches as testament of perfoming such a cool sport.

Mommy’s face of the day: oh so well rested. But still look like crap.

Baby’s face of the day: Naughty. As usual.

Lucky for him, the wifey brought her camera along during lunch so yes at least we have photos to show we had lunch together AFTER the great big water-ski action

Chosen restaurant: Zest Restaurant in Bangsar South coz apparently it’s the healthy way to eat and I had some awesome vouchers to use up It was my second visit there.

It is one of my 2012 resolution to eat healthily and I”ve been loading up the vegs thesedays *nods head* And I suppose Zest Cafe goes well with my new resolution coz they take alot of pride with their food since its made of low salt, low sugar, low cream, no margarine and they use 100% olive oil and the best of all, no MSG! I could roll with that.

The group. Don’t know why the aunty is posing for my camera, haha.

Baby Sairah had the Chorizo soup. I love how she can finally eat out with us, makes trips to the malls a whole lot easier now that I don’t have to worry about feeding her ’special’ food. This is one of my favorite soups, and I’m not usually a soupy kinda gal. She is though

Soup soup soup! Got more soup?

This is the chat-over-panini that we had with a side of hummus. The hummus was sort of tasteless (we shall leave hummus to the arabs okay?) though good thing the bread was pretty flavorful.

Cousin Jeev ordered the Spaghetti Bolognese. Dish came without any salt added to it because they ain’t kidding when they say healthy! Worry not for there’s a salt shaker on every table

Though the spaghetti was a bit of a disappointment to my cousin, their signature dish - Rosemary Grilled Chicken Breast was pretty awesome! Sis, Roshan and I had the SAME exact dish coz we felt it was the most yummiest looking thing on the menu. Their mashed potato was SERIOUSLY yummy making this dish a must have. Best if all it’s ONLY RM11! On our first visit, the hubby tried the same dish but ordered half chicken. We found the portion HUGE and enough for two. So stick with the rosemary chicken and you can’t go wrong

Okay now I”m craving for their mashed potato as I type this :(  

And this was the husband’s Braised Seafood – a medly of prawn, fish and squid in tomato sauce. That’s right, no carbs. He was hungry an hour later! That man has serious issues when it comes to ordering proper food.

Prices are also very affordable! If you go during lunch, their menu is much cheaper. Each dish we ordered was less than RM14 and soups are only RM5 a bowl. All in, a must visit restaurant! My only gripe was the slow service that day, food took about 20 minutes to arrive for some reason.

Aunt and niece having a light moment.

And here are some photos of the hubby’s side we visited that Sunday after lunch.

Yup believe it or not, this little cutie is actually half Indian.

Kids just dig me, ahem. We were having a serious heavy discussion on BARBIE on how that bitch is planning on taking over the world. Barbie for presidency! And world domination!

I seriously LOVE this photo coz I look like a mother of three GIRLS! Dear GOD, if the fortune teller’s prediction of three kids are correct, then please please please make em all girls!

And Baby Sairah actually prefers playing with older kids, preferably girls. Coz boys are just  less gentle. True story.

And that’s the SUN! Which we’ve been having too much lately. Weather on Sunday was 36 degrees. Insaneee!

The End
