A trip to Cupcakes Wonderland--- WonderMilk

Good evening, peeps~! Once again, it's me on Ivy @ Feelings FM... I'm your DJ (duh~!) and my name is Ivy~~~~
OK, I don't know when this blog became a food review thing since it doesn't fit my blog name... In fact, I should be talking about feelings instead of FOOD~~
But since everyone likes food right? and I love them too... So I decided along the way I'll share my feelings and expedition I'm going through in KL and of course here and there I'm gonna introduce you guys to some FOOD in KL which I've been to. Although they might not be the best but there would be someone out there who would love it, right?

Let's start. On Saturday, I was sitting in the library studying(Exam is soooo near~!!!) with a few others and suddenly this guy, Ka Vui on the right said this, "I'm craving for Rainbow Cupcakes..."

My head shot up when I heard cupcakes... OK, I'm a big fans for sweet stuffs especially cakes~!! So I was like, "What is rainbow cupcake?"

He thought for a while before answering but basically he said, "The cake is in rainbow colour and tasted like Mat Kool rainbow flavor ice-cream."

I'm like... WOAH~! "Colourings?"

"I asked the guy there, they say its not colouring."

"Awesome. I feel like getting a bite on it... Tomorrow is a Sunday, why not we go then?"

So on Sunday, we met up in the library at 10.00... I was late though... XD

Anyway, we met up at the library and Jewen was there so after cracking our heads on how to get to that place, Jewen volunteered to drive. So we departed, 4 of us... We reached the place called WonderMilk and I think it's quite a famous place because it was quite full even at 11am...

So here we are:
WonderMilk... I was overwhelmed with how they set up their shop as the furnitures they used are very unique. Even from the outside, there are tables and chairs which are made of crates... I was stupified when I stepped into the store itself.

The furnitures are very special and it brings out a very warm feeling. This is not acutally a pure cupcake shop but rather I would term it as a cafe. And it is one which I always wanted in my life. I dreamed of owning such a cafe. With the warm lightings and the nice smell of cupcakes and coffee with the mixture of milk. People having their meals happily, smiling and chatting away... Well, we checked on the price board and decided to get the 12 box set and everyone would have 4 since Shin Li didn't want it. So we picked and picked and picked...

When we first saw the cupcake, we were like... So small a?! Well, we're shocked because when Ka Vui describe to us and did the hand gesture it was quite big... And Ee Teng thought it was slices of cakes and I thought it would be something like a muffin... Anyway, we just got the cupcakes and settled down while I looked around the shop and took photos of the environment here.

These are the cupcake we chose...
First row from left: Oreo, Rainbow, Rainbow, Rainbow
Second Row: Blueberry, Cheesy Cheese, Choc Mint, Oreo
Third Row: Choc Mint, Oreo, (Not sure), rainbow

Well, the cupcakes are OK... It would be fine for sweet lovers but trust me, they are very sweet...
In fact, Ka Vui and Jewen ordered coffee and milk... I heard the milk is really good. I'll give it a try the next time round.
So basically the cupcakes cost RM4.50 each and for a box of 12, it costs RM50.
They sell in one then a set of four, eight, twelve and sixteen I guess...

 OK, so this picture above includes four photos. The first one is some weird animal body thing... The second one is a clock, with WM on it, not sure it meant West Malaysia or World Map... But the pictures on the other side of the board are some drinks in their shop.

The third picture is some cabinets where they put some greens... And the last one is basically the decorations beside the cabinet... See the BAKE word and also the world map...

This photo on the left is some other pictures I took regarding the furnitures. The upper left one is a small corner underneath the cabinet. I wanted to take that place when I saw it... I really love the small wooden table and small chairs. It makes the small corner there looks very cosy... The upper right is another set of table outside the shop. The chair are crates basically.

The lower left one is what I think most unique of all in the whole shop. Can you guys see the picture? Guess what it is make from? The tops of the table and chairs are of course make of planks and woods but the rack itself is made of unused pipes. Creative I would say... And the last pic on the bottom right is a small shelf beside the cashier selling postcards. The design of the postcards are nice and worth RM1 each.

This picture above was 2 pictures I really love... The wall and WM below the clock... Nothing special but I love them for no reason.

 On your left is the menu and numbering they used in the shop. Everything is handwritten and the message on the numbering is interesting. They included their Wifi password there itself and trust me, the password is as cute as the shop.

So basically I did not have breakfast that day and my tummy started growling. After checking the menu, I decided to try out one of the sandwiches---- Mushroom Melt.

I never expected anything much since it's mushrooms and it's normal. I paid and waited and soon the sandwich was served...

And yeap, this bread on my right is the sandwich I ordered. There are mushrooms fillings (DUH~) and of course the secret recipe out of everything... THe all time favorite----- CHEESE~!!!

I took a bite and WOAH~! Never expected to taste THAT awesome and I meant it. It's even better than the cupcakes. If there is a rating, I would give 5/5 for this sandwich over here. Best taste for sandwich ever tasted.

Those who like mushroom, this is a must try. Trust me, you would not regret. Well, but for a sandwich this is a bit expensive... It costs RM10.90 for this. The sandwich will come with some raw veges and also potato salad. So it's quite filling for lunch or breakfast or even for brunch.

So these are the people I went to WonderMilk with... My course mates and ex-course mate

From left: Shin Li (so proud to have a Bruneian friend who is a NERD~ XD); Jewen (The guy who brought me to pasar malam and give me a lift back every night); and the suggestor, Ka Vui...

So this pretty girl who is holding the cup cake is Ee Teng. (Pretty right?) and the crazy girl sitting sideway would be the one and only ME, your DJ tonight and many more nights--- Ivy~

So, before we depart from the shop... We took a photo of everyone with my Samsung Galaxy S3 2.0 megapixels front camera... So from left: Shin Li, Jewen, Ka Vui, Ee Teng and finally, me~!

Have a nice trip there for those who are interested. They have 3 outlets actually... The one went to is +WonderMilk Damansara Uptown. Yes, we went all the way to Damansara from Brickfields for cupcakes.
There are two more outlets situated at Citta Mall and Publika Shopping Gallery...

For more info, feel free to check out their webpage:

Well, that's all for today... And Good Night peeps~!

PAINTBALL ON THE GO~!!

A very good evening to all of you who are reading my blog...

I'm your DJ for this evening, Ivy.

So, tonight's theme would be the very first step to my 'Let My Arenaline Rush' Plan.

OK, things start this way... 

2 weeks ago, I sort of went into a total stress and depression mode due to the upcoming exams which is in say... 65 days? *OMG, that is so close~ I'm gonna fail man...

BUt anyway, since it's nothing to do with those who are not sitting for the exam, there is no point stressing you guys out... So, me and my classmate were having this conversation in class one fine afternoon before class starts:

Me: "I feel like going for Bungee Jumping." 

Duncan: "Why do you wanna go BUngee Jumping?"

Me: "Too stress, just to release my stress. Wanna come? RM75 in SUnway Lagoon."

Duncan: "WHat?! You are using RM75 to buy gravity? One jump, 2 seconds, RM75?"

Me: "Ya?"

Duncan: "WHy not I buy you a rope and tie your leg and let you jump off from one of the condo in KL? It's free."

Me: "That's not the point."

Duncan: "Cummon! Do something else."

Me: "I really love all this games... I wanna go for BUngee Jumping, Go Carting, Abselin, Flying Fox, Paintball, Lazer Skirmish..."

Duncan: "You seriously wanna go for paintball?"

Another classmate who is sitting behind of us, Mark responded: "I heard paintball. Are we going for paintball?"

Duncan: "We can organize if you guys want."

And so.... This event starts...

So we basically gathered information about paintball fields and the charges... And Duncan set up an event group on Facebook recruiting members of our coursemates to join. Things goes well excepts with some glitch (Well, expected right?) but it turn out quite well and we'll officially starts our story here!

At first we  plan to meet at BAC (Brickfields Asia College, i.e: the college we're studying) and Duncan will pick me and another 2 people from there. I was late but anyway I reached and he called and said, "Hey, Ivy... THere's a block there. The police don't allow me to cross, can you come to BAC2?" 

So me, Prab and Jie Jiun walked to BAC2 and hop on... Anyway, we weren't really late when we reached the place... Walah, It's TAG Paintball at Taman Desa. THe exact location cannot be found on Google Map, so my advice, type this on your GPS if you were to go: Taman Desa Waterpark. It's the same way but it's a very old 4 stories parking beside the waterpark.

So basically when we reached there we started waiting up till 3.15 when we started briefing. They explained Capture the Flag MOde, Team Death and also Terminator(play till the pellets finish)

But in the end we only played the Team Death and Terminator

During the game, adrenaline rush to the very peak. THis is even so when you saw your opponent running around and you hear shooting all around. THe pain when you got shot is intense but it does not last for long. It might bruises you but at the very moment, you feel alive. After all the stress and hectic life in the city, this is one way that will really relaxes your mind. 

NO thought will go through the mind except to survive the game and to shoot down your opponent. 

At the very end, we still have some bullets left so we went on a 1 vs 1 game. This game pushes the thrill to the max. The first round was Duncan vs Prab... The second round was me vs Jian. 

THe sweat after the game really refreshes the mind, and the moment when I got shot at the neck but Keith really makes my blood burnt further. I want to feel the pain, I want to shoot and finish off the game... That is what I tell myself.

I did not get much bruises, only a couple of them... Here, one on my thigh (by I don't know who) and one on my shoulder (by Hui Fang):

After the game, we went for dinner at Seng Kee Restaurant. We had amazing conversations there. IN a way, this game really brought everyone who are usually antisocial to work together and to talk about things that we never talk in class.

From left: Me, Hui Fang, Aeshprit, Prab, Kavitha, Kristen, JJ, Mark, Nelia, Yau Lem, Jian, Keith.

Missing：Siah Fong

Anyway, if there's a chance... I would love to go for a second round. 

Our players. 

Second Row from left: Mark, Nelia, Prab, Jian, Keith (the extremely aggressive one), Aeshprit.

First Row from left: Siah Fong, Yau Lem, Me, Duncan, Kristen, JJ, Kavitha

Missing: Hui Fang.

Here are some info if you guys wanna feel the thrill and join the game. 

TAG Paintball website: http://www.paintball-tag.com/paintball-tag/paintball-tag/main/default.asp
TAG FB Group :https://www.facebook.com/groups/147069708416/

Needies:

1. Bottle of water. (You can still buy drinks after the game, we bought 100 Plus RM2.50 per can)

2. Tissue or handkerchief. (Trust me, you will sweat a lot)

3. Clean shirt (For changing after the game)

4. Clean pants (For changing after the game)

5. Towel and toiletries (If you plan to bath after the game)

The thing about TAG paintball is, the people there are pretty good... Friendly Marshalls there, and the toilets are very big and clean. You would feel comfortable with the equipments provided too as they are clean and you do not feel disgusted. 

They will provide you with the mask and the marker, i.e: the gun. Others will be on your own cost.

There are 14 of us, we paid approximately RM100 for the playfield, the equipments and 2 boxes of pellets. If you want to rent the vest, it cost RM10 extra. But it would be advisable for first time players as it is quite painful.

So that's all for today. Feel free to drop any question about this and I'll try to help.

My Burger Lab

OK, it had been 3 months I found out about this shop besides Burger Kaw Kaw(located at Wangsa Maju, I heard there's another branch at PJ). Well, I'm always craving for something and this is seriously what I wanted to try... I had been asking my course mates about it's whereabout but all their responses are
i) Don't know la, where is the place?
ii) I usually drive there de wor...
And so, I went on to Google and checked the place. To dismay, no information of the nearest LRT station was there. The thing about me is I'm not from KL so I don't drive...

Finally, after 2 months of eavesdropping... I heard this one day,
"Eh, wanna go Burger Lab ah?"
"Want want want. HOw to go ah?"
"I heard there is a LRT station nearby there."
"Stop where ah?"
"Taman Paramount I heard."
Hmm... Taman Paramount... COol! now I know the place. All I need to know is how to get to the shop from Taman Paramount LRT station. So, in conjuction with my brother's off day I decided to bring him for dinner at Burger Lab since he's a total aficionado of burgers (WEll, I suspect he has a dream of trying every single burger on earth)

So at 3.30pm today, I texted a course mate... So in count of 3, I'm gonna reveal his name... 3! 2! 1! With a round of applause, let's welcome Dnesh Ong~! Well, this is the message he sent me just now:

  I'm like Okay... With this I should be able to find the place... I hope. So after class, I met up my brother at MCD KL Sentral and we started discussing...

"Eh, have you went there before?" my bro
I answered in a very sorry manner..."Er... Actually... No..."
"Ha? Will we get lost then? I need to catch the bus at 7.30 and it's already 5.30,"
"Well, no harm giving a try..."
"We better find the place, I'm starving."
Well, we took the LRT(just in case anyone do not know, it's KJ line, formerly know as Putra line) until the station of Taman Paramount.

"OK, let's go." I said enthusiastically.
"Er, bus... 7.30 need to be at KL Sentral." my bro reminded.
"Alright."
So I opened this message and started following the direction.
We walked up the stairs and undecidable whether to turn left or right and trust me, it is a dead end if you walk straight as written in the message. So I looked around and followed by instinct(I was know to have very good sense of direction). At the corner of the road, I spotted a traffic light signboard so I took the left turn and lucky me, I found the traffic light!

That is a very straight uphill road with loads of cars moving. So a friendly advise, be careful when walking along the road as traffic are quite congested in that area. So basically we can see the end of the road there and I was reading the message where my brother shouted, "Holy, there really is a KFC there!"

I'm like, OK... We're on the right track so we moved on... We followed the message direction and found the place... It was quite a distance from the LRT station... Say about... 15 mins walk...

Here's the map:

OK, this map sucks but it's not really that hard to find... Trust me... Don't worry and just walk...
So we ended lining up in the restaurant and started looking at the notice board full of pictures and money of other currencies... Well, of course the menu... They came up with fantastic names which will attract the customers' attention (Undeniably)... E.g: Water Balloon (Watermelon and Lychee fillings, I wonder what is the taste), The Hulk, Swisstake etc...

Since both me and my brother are beef "craver"(aka beef lovers), we went for the beef meal... I ordered a Hangover Burger which I saw received quite some compliments at the notice board... Here it is:

OK, here are the ingredients:
1. Beef Patty
2. Hashbrown
3. Lettuce
4, SHitake Mushroom
5. Enoki Mushroom
6. Maple syrup
PS: Mushrooms that came with the sauce is awesome...

It looks weird but it taste awesome... Hangover Burger, my first trip to My BUrger Lab... I would give a 4/5 and I would definitely love to have one more but it's too filling. Seriously TOO filling.

So basically my brother saw another thing which attracted him... The cool name and cool ingredients. Well, he always go for something which has cooler name and more sophisticating ingredients. So basically he chose this: Beautiful Mess ver 4.0

The ingredients?
1. Beef Patty
2. Sunny side-up (aka egg)
3. Portabella mushroom
and I can recall no more... Sorry if I missed out any ingredients.

Anyway, he chose this... And he was quite contented with the taste... And it is too VERY fiiling... *Burp

NOw, to the bill... Me and my brother with a side fries for me and a side fries +drink for my brother... Total is RM44.00
Well, some would say expensive... I would say it's quite worthy... Highly reccomended to try on their fries... With(it's a must) some of the sauce they provided... Trust me, it's one of the best... Especially the sauce... No joke.

Well, that;s all... He went back to work after that and I was left here typing this blog just to share with anyone who is interested in getting there and have a bite of this... Oh, by the way just in case you are curious why the bun is black in colour, it's charcoal bread...
The worker there are friendly, very friendly and very helpful... With a high speed wifi and a nice environment... Totally a suitable place for gathering and meet up... I would love to re-visit this shop some day.

Overall rating: 4/5 ☆★★★★
