Paramount Coffee House – Conezion

Posted in Everyday Life, Food and Drinks, Places to Eat by

Upon returning from my course at UPM, I indulged myself in a hot shower. It has been an exhausting day and all I wanted was a nice meal and dessert! I’ve already set my eyes on Paramount Coffee House, located just 2 minutes walk from my hotel. It is a restaurant owned by Ebit Liew, the Muslim philanthropist who got caught up in a few controversies lately. I have heard raving reviews about it a lot!

However, since I was alone, I knew I couldn’t eat too much. Plus, my sister was saying that they serve really big portions. I am not a fan of eateries that serve huge portions because subconsciously, this is linked to me being the NCD champion of my clinic. Patients eat too much and it is challenging trying to advise them to eat less.

Anyway, I finally decided on a menu – Laksa Pahang. It was my first time eating it and I thought it was like Laksam’s cousin. They taste similar. Only Laksam has those little rolls and this one is served with noodles instead. I ordered apple peach tea as well. I was contemplating having their famous waffles as well but it looked too much for someone my size. I am, after all, watching my calories. They also have Western options but that is for another time. In the end, I still had dessert but I bought it at a different store – The Harry’s.

My verdict on the laksa is a SO-SO. I will need to taste the other food on the menu with my family later.

Kay’s Steak and Lobster – Conezion

Posted in Food and Drinks, Places to Eat by

I am always on the lookout for a great steak dinner. My personal choice of doneness – medium rare.

To be safe, I made my dinner reservation on the website. It would be disheartening if I couldn’t get a table after the enthusiastic online ‘research’ I did online for reviews of the place. This eatery serves not only steak but also huge lobsters and their best seller – the Wellington dish. Turns out you need to pre-order it one day before but I was pretty clear on what I wanted.

A steak.

My reservation was confirmed almost immediately and they even sent me a WhatsApp message an hour before the chosen time to remind me of it. The restaurant is within walking distance from Sovotel and is certified as HALAL. Took me less than 3 minutes to walk there.

I chose the Stanbroke Black Angus Ribeye (250g) with the Au Poivre sauce, a creme brulee and a COKE to wash it all down. The waitress needed to speak louder cause I honestly don’t know why these girls (including the Sovotel lady) were so soft while taking the order. Is it a Gen Z thing? I don’t think so.

I really enjoyed my meal because not only it was aesthetically pleasing but the taste was just luscious and delectable. The meat was prepared well and timely. It was a dinner with mindfulness as I savoured every single bite and chewed on my meal properly.

The whole dinner cost me RM233.15. They even put my receipt in a nice sleeve. I would definitely come here again if I am in this part of town in the future. Perhaps the lobster on my next visit.
