Random Makan Makan

These days I am enjoying the freedom to eat. No more carbohydrate restriction which I used to impose on myself. 

Thanks to my discovery of reverse dieting and intermittent fasting, I have been able to maintain my weight even when I indulge in carbs and the sweet stuff (in moderation of course!)

Sundays I low carb. I eat chap fan without the fan (rice),

My partner however is a rice man. He must eat rice or else he won't be satiated. He has no weight issues as the man has a high metabolic rate. I envy him!

When I eat bento or any meal with rice, if the portion of rice is big, I eat only half and save the other half in my container for my cat (I mix the rice with tuna before I feed her). What you see here is a soft shell crab curry bento from Fujisawa Izakaya@The Starling. Pretty good.

Ah! My favorite crispy chicken taco at Chili's 1 Utama. In the past, I would not have ordered this. The tortilla, cilantro rice and beans are all carb laden.

So good!

See, I can even have ice cream when I want.

Life is good when you can eat.

The other day, I went to Annie-1 late and had to suffer the indignity of sitting on the sidewalk. Very uncomfortable having people glance at you when they walk past.

All for a plate of wantan mee, siew kaw and kopi-o ais kosong. Bliss!

And of course, my latest craze, IlaoIlao frozen yogurt and the fixins. I tried the pistachio sauce. 

It was all sweet and creamy with no distinctive taste of pistachios. I won't order this sauce again. My favorite is the dark chocolate, strawberry and fruit forest sauce.

Had the choco hazelnut sauce and still prefer the three I mentioned above. I am loving this!

Then I went for a lamb quesadilla at Orale one afternoon. Sadly, it did not taste as good as before. 

By the way, I spotted a few more new bubble tea houses at Damansara Uptown. It's quite scary the rate at which they are opening.

Ji Long Tang and Bawangchaji are going to be operational fairly soon.

This one is called The Whale Tea.

It opened last Saturday and all these cheapskate people bubble tea enthusiasts are queuing up for the 50% promotional discount.

And then there's another one called Black Whale.

So brown sugar boba milk lovers, soon you will be having a whale of a time at Damansara Uptown! 

It's a good thing I don't like bubble tea or else I would be adding this along to my sweet treats list.
