Perpetual Tockism

The view of the cafe, what a pretty concept!

One of the three different styles to have your favourite ice-cream in… Yummy crunch!

A sneak preview of the Strawberry Kisses... You’ll be amazed that this was actually “fried” consisting of yoghurt, strawberry syrup and assorted crunchy fillings that makes it a truly orgasmic crunchy experience! More details over here

Presenting a Cooler species: Motchas Mojito, which is really Green Tea + mint syrup… I have to say its definitely a LOOKER and after trying it, I wasn’t disappointed at all… until the Oasis came along =P

Presenting the Oasis, which is really a wonderful combination of watermelon and rainbow sherbet. Now if this doesn’t kickstart your day, I don’t know what will! Its refreshing goodness is thoroughly invigorating (not to be confused with the effects of tongkat ali!!)

Many thanks to the friendly people at Baskin Robbins for the experience! I hope there’ll be a day where we can all come back again and enjoy ourselves in the first ever Baskin Robbins Cafe @ Midvalley Gardens, which really made it big in Korea before arriving here at Malaysia’s doorstep

My Dog, My Benji! Isn’t he the most adorablest creature you’ve ever seen? Can’t you detect the stupidity displayed all over his face? OMG how can you not love the Dog!

Lolol just kidding mate, this here is his boyfriend, but he’s so ugly. Yes, I suspect he’s gay after a little incident he had with some other dog. Really!

Nah this is Benji! The Dog! Who does a “Hurricane Tail Blow” move whenever he senses pretty HUMAN girls, cheh.

Though I must say, I wish the Dog can be at least as cute as this litle fella here… Bloody cute can?!

At least the Dog doesn’t look anything like this horrible creature who’s so ugly can vomit shit I tell you! *bluuerrghh*

“Hmmm, this kinda looks easy yo. Imma gonna pass thru this in an instant, yo! You mofos out there prepare to be amazed yo, for I the Pimp Doggy-O is gonna rock the town til u drop wagstas!“

“Alley-oop!”

“Yo yo yo did you see that you wagstas! Told u I ain’t no Shits-zu can find anywhere else! Bow to me yo, bow to the Dogsta!“

As you enter, to your left is the lounge area where you can sip coffee and receive free wireless internet service, perfect for businessmen who needs a cuppa

This is the dining area, decorated by the family to cater for a classier audience, and notice at the back where a separate section is blocked off for functions

One of the restaurant’s specialy was the frozen Milk Green Tea, which I found delectably tasty, not too strong yet enough to tingle your tastebuds

We started with a round of soups, all served with nicely toasted Garlic Bread. We had Pumpkin Soup, Chicken Soup and Wild Mushroom Soup. For me, the Wild Mushroom Soup deserved special mention as there was very little cream in it, as it focused instead in the variety of mushrooms that certainly gave it a distinctive taste… I later found out that Cassandra’s mom didn’t like cream hence she created her own recipe to compensate using cream with something else that delivers the exact creamy texture, now that’s the way to innovate!

What makes their melted cheese special is that they combine 3 different types of cheese and infuse them with herbs to give you a mellow tasting, sweetish cheesy dip, perfect for any “liu” you’d like in their selections. Do read more!

Preparing the ingredients were easy apart from manually mincing the lamb steak. Already some marinating were involved in the initial process

Alvin, my sous chef, prepared the fillets of Rainbow Trout coated with honey and showered with flour, pepper and salt

The blue bowl I was refering to earlier is at the top right corner, while cooked prawns were bought (it’s hard to get fresh prawns as they are expensive) and finally the leafy Pak Choi to add to the dish’s colour. These ingredients were mainly used to add colours to the dish.

Using Thai Jasmine rice, I added garlic, butter, salt and ginger to make it aromatic and slightly tasty, though not too much! The prawns were added into the rice cooker midway for added flavouring

This sauce, dubbed the “Hakka Sauce” by my housemates, was taught to me by my auntie, and goes well with all kinds of vegetables They loved it so much that they asked me to make large portions to be kept inside a bottle for future use lol!

My dear housemates loves Korean food, so it wasn’t a surprise to find a packet of Korean Red Pepper Paste lying around, which was essential for the dish as well!

The cooking process itself was done in the following manner
1. The mince lamb was marinated, fried and laced with brandy which was then flamed to give it a charred, sweet taste
2. The Pak Choi and stripped crab sticks were boiled lightly in salted water and then strained.
3. The Rainbow Trout fillets were fried til golden
4. Two eggs were half-boiled to top the dish
5. These were then arranged accordingly: as defined by the dish itself

After topping it with the Red Pepper Paste and the Half-boiled Egg, I present to you Seafood Bibimbap V0.7 ala Tock! My two tasters, Alvin Yap and Wen Yen, had only praises to sing otherwise they will not expect me to cook for them ever!
