Coupons Marathon

one thing that pocky and me have been doing lately is definitely spending money...him spending more then me! T_T (sorry!) buying all these deals online! mainly food! -_-! omgosh! so if anyone noticed my weight gain. DO NOT, i repeat DO NOT SAY IT. *stares*

milkadeal, groupon, everyday, webuy...etcetcetc. the list is endless! my gmail is bombarded with updates from them almost everyday. not that i really mind but it's really eating our pockets semi-dry laughs*

it is good to be able to try places/eat things that one normally wouldn't even go to but seriously...laughs* it's indirectly forced spending cause once you buy you MUST USE means you have just SPENT an amount of money no matter what! so all in all, lesson learned.

CONTROL SPENDING. dotdotdot...

anyway, what is bought has to be used. so...:D hahahaha
the first voucher/coupon/deal that we redeemed was the one at OASIS @ BU. blogged one before bout it.

bought from milkadeal. as written on their website :
RM33.90 instead of RM69.20 for a Scrumptious Set Meal: Grilled Baby Back Pork Ribs (Full Slab) with BBQ or Honey Mustard + Mushroom Soup + Ice Lemon Tea + Molten Chocolate Cake with Haagen Dazs Ice Cream
for your informasi, cause pocky is greedy like this/forgot that his bulat can't finish a full course meal...he bought 2/TWO/DUA/LIANG GE/LIONG GUO/NI vouchers...so we went back TWICE! roar!* laughs. the waiter obviously remember us!

mushroom soup...in comparison with what i have written before last time."very mushy, slightly oatmeal-ish texture like" ..still taste the same. laughs* portion wise seems a lil smaller no? but it's okay, for a cheaper deal then original rate, i have expected slight changes. or maybe they DID lessen the portion over the monthsss but it's been so long since i last went, i din't know bout it.

as for the drink, we took orange juice the frst time and ice lemon tea the second time. don't have to review on mediocre drinks ba.

can't remember....and i am no expert in this. ribs? laughs* a veryvery big rib. it's there on the menu literally written as the biggest slab of meat available for order.
look at pocky's face ! i think we both got a shock! hahaha and that is why we did not redeem both vouchers at once. we will DIE-_-! tapao. laughs* taste wise (and meat portion wise) they did not change much. still tasted good and juicy overall~ i scraped it clean! :P and pocky was kinda overstuffed with the amount of meat i was scraping off from the bone and putting all on his plate hohoho
grilled belly oriental! well, still taste good! although pocky kept saying it has a distinct taste.. i think there was hacks used to make the sauce or something hahaha pocky kept saying the sauce is fattening, don't eat..but i happily scrape my bit of meat on the plate to get the sauce on it :P

the first time we went, we ended up paying 50 cents for my water...pocky was so paiseh cuase it felt weird laughs* to eat a full meal and pay 50 cents (but technically we paid rm33.90 fr the meal wor!) so the next time we went, we ordered appetizer.

some....onion sausage thing which i think is a lil over priced (then again, which restaurant's appetizer's price isn't like woahhh!!) tasted fine, i like the fried onion bits laughs* but really...oily.....to me. if not wrong i was trying to dab off all the oil with my serviette. laughs*

here comes dessert...WITH NO PICTURES! BAH.

it's haagen dazs alright but no MOLTEN CHOC CAKE. and i tell you how important is that cause it's CHOCOLATE fr pocky and it's CAKE fr me!

i tell you the worse part now! i DID NOT EVEN REALIZE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO COME WITH A CAKE UNTIL I READ THE MILKADEAL WEBSITE WHEN I WANNA BLOG ABOUT THIS-_-!!!

SLOW + FAIL = BULAT-_-!
miehhhhhhhhhhhhhh~

so yes....no cake...BOTH TIMES.
had haagen dazs ..yes but the scoops were kinda small.
first redemption, we had 4 scoops of ice-cream! although small but still it shocked us cause it's like 2 scoops of ice-cream each?? O_o (well, now i know why hahaha maybe to replace the choc cake)

2nd redemption, got a scoop each. but it's funny. the waiter seems to know i prefer vanilla and pocky prefers chocolate. both times, despite the scoop counts, he got the flavours right when placing the dessert in front of us. hahahha

funny world.

verdict : Okay ba. although not really good "sidekick" dishes, but the main course was well worth at least. rm33.90 for both of us to be full and happy. it's considered not bad fr a angmo dinner price:) which we hardly go for.
