THE BEST CRAB I HAVE EATEN SO FAR

I did mention in my earlier post on the promotion Miraku Japanese Restaurant was having for their 4th Anniversary. I was truly impressed. The Miraku Special Bento set was a blast at only RM33++. Even my Dad had a hard time trying to finish off the generous amount of food given.

What impressed me most was the almost 1kg weight giant crab - the Asahi Kani. It was lovely and my Mum had an enjoyable time digging into the meaty crab. The good news is, the price for the crab had decreased to only RM30++ per crab until the end of June 2010 or until stocks last. Don't miss out this hard to come by golden opportunity to try it out. Just head down to Miraku Japanese Restaurant at G Hotel, Penang right now! You might want to call in 604-229 8702 to make your reservation.

IS PRESENTATION IMPORTANT WHEN SERVING?

You were busily catching up with old times with a group of former schoolmates in a restaurant downtown one fine evening. Suddenly the room became quiet as the waiter came in with the first serving as all eyes were captivated by the elegantly crafted serving tray. This is what we would call the art of good food presentation. Not only must a restaurant provide great food, they should also present each diner with the best dining experience by utilizing the best restaurant equipment and utensils.

That is the reason you would see those people involved in the food and beverages industry of all sizes had placed high importance on this form of art. On top of providing great hospitality, using the right professional wares and utensils while presenting the food would indeed contribute an important role in ensuring the success of the restaurant.

There are many unique and affordable restaurant supplies available on the internet that would fit any requirements, ranging from all shapes, sizes, materials and even designs to choose from. With a collection of beautifully crafted wares being part of your kitchen, impressing your guests would no longer be any problem at all.

SHOPPING HAS NEVER BEEN SO EASY

Have you ever come back from your regular weekend grocery shopping and you forgot to get something? Well, it happened to me quite many times and multiple revisits surely did make me waste more of my precious time. It’s not that I was not systematic enough or losing my memory through the years but it was how I had managed my shopping lists. With a hectic working life and having to multi task many things at the same time, my brain somehow was so preoccupied all the time. Thus, I’ll get all the spoilers in my routine shopping trips. Thanks goodness I found a grocery shopping list that solved all my regular hiccups.

Ever since I found this free and handy shopping list, my weekend shopping has been more organized and hassle-free.

SHOULD I EAT OUT OR COOK AT HOME?

With another festive celebration just around the corner, I’m still sitting here to contemplate whether to eat out or to cook something decent for the family reunion. Although I can always pop into the internet to search for some of the recommended restaurants, maybe I should commit myself to cooking since it would be more personal towards the family but I have some problems here. How am I going to set up the whole place to boost the atmosphere to its peak or to find the perfect combination of food to please every household member?

Do I sound panic here? Well, not exactly as I always had the faithful support from my online friends. Practically anything related to recipes, cooking advice, tips & tricks to add that magic touch to the food as well as great deals in cooking utensils are something that I would always be made aware of. What a nice bunch of friends they are to share out their culinary adventures. I was thinking about having some seafood on bamboo skewers served during dinner but never had I known that those skewers were to be soaked in water for 30 minutes prior to barbequing to avoid being burned. Thanks friend! That was one great cooking tip I needed.

Now I would need a salad recipe to go with my barbequed stuff. Maybe I should get some healthy greens or fruits or a combination of both to suit the taste buds of my parents and kids. This was again another great advice highlighted on the effects of High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) and High Density Lipoprotein (LDL) in our bodies and what would the relevant food be that would be suitable for our consumptions. I guessed I should also make sure everyone stays healthy during this festive season.
