Dinner at Paradise Dynasty Restaurant BV@

Noodles

We headed to Bangsar Village two for dinner. It was raining plus we had an eventful evening jump-starting the Golf which had been left alone for two weeks. I was too busy to start the car. We borrowed the wires from our neighbour. He was lovely. Not only did he lend us the wires, he also helped stick it on and waited for the car to be awaken before leaving us. Nice and friendly. I'm sorry I wasn't friendlier earlier in the year. ( I'll be nicer from now)

All this took some time, after which we were all hungry and decided we won't brave the Kepong drive for Dim sum. The safer option would be to eat indoors. I chose BV2 because it is rarely crowded. And I was right. The carpark was a bit of a squeeze to get in, but we got a spot and proceeded for dinner.


This was what the mum ordered and she was pleased with it. Nice and springy.Different consistency from the wanton noodles you get outside. La mian fried with pork presumably and some vegetables. The overall taste was gorgeous with just a hint of saltiness. Enough to leave you wanting more.

Dumplings

 I chose this because it was similar to Esquire Kitchen's Wor Teik. Upon arrival and after the first bite I'm proud to say I chose what I wanted. Because it tasted almost similar to Esquire's version.

Soup noodles

 This was the daddy's choice. Soup noodles with Pork chop served on the side. ( I forgot to take a picture of the pork shop so you will have to believe me)It's nicer served dipped in soup because it adds  flavour.

Long beans and tofu

Delicious long beans fried with minced pork which went well with the soupy noodles shown above. This was everyone's favourite. And in the back ground fried tofu  was absolutely delicious. Better eaten slightly cold. Otherwise you run the risk of scalding your tongue and being miserable the remaining meal. I recommend you try this tofu. It's crispy on the outside and butter soft once you bite into it. We couldn't get enough of it. We were all so happy to finally find this. A good substitute to the I-canton version. Apparently they don't serve this any more at I-canton. But hey ho...we have found a replacement.

Pedicure at Bangsar Village

Looking posh 

My usual place  went bankrupt and closed down.  I only found out a few months later and so lost quite a bit of money as I had bought a package and hadn't finished it yet. I'm not going to be tied to any packages any more. I miss the usual place. They did do very nice massages and the whole experience was always soothing and the girls were good at nail art. I've done some whoppingly gorgeous intricate ones there. There are two possible reasons for the closing; bad management of funds or the hike in rental at Plaza Damas.

I decided to try a new place and headed here to Chic Nail at Bangsar Village II. Terrifically upmarket place but I was determined to be unfazed and walked in. The girls were polite and I got to do my pedicure without much fuss.

Gosh the place was gorgeously decorated. Each piece complemented each other. And the red walls made the pictures hanging on it pop. The black and white tiles were a nice touch. And at the end of the shop was a huge mirror giving an illusion of space.

Table for manicure

Little tables at the front of the shop for manicure.

The colour selection is huge. If you are indecisive...beware

 Wow ! they had a huge selection of colours to choose from. And they had an odd way of representing them.The usual way is in a circular form. This was difficult to handle I kept having to turn at awkward angles to see each and every colour. And it was hard to compare your three most wanted colours.

I picked this colour

I chose this colour because I like a bit of red and this wasn't such a bright rosy red. My toes look rather good now. I'm going to try and wear open toed sandals to church this morning. ( If I can find a pair)
