Yoshinoya Hanamaru @ Mid Valley

So a few days ago I think, my SO and myself found ourselves walking around MidValley Megamall. It's been awhile since we've been there. A lot has changed, especially the top floor where GSC Cinemas is located. They've done a brilliant job of renovating and refreshing the look of this level. It's a lot nicer than it was before. Classier in fact and a lot more comfortable to walk around. 

Anyway, wandering around looking for something to nosh on, it was approaching dinner, we decided to try Yoshinoya. Well, not try exactly. I've had Yoshinoya before. The first Yoshinoya that I remember opening in Malaysia was in KLCC or more specifically Suria KLCC the mall attached to KL landmark twin towers. Back then it was located at the food court and was as you'd expect being located at a food court not a really fancy affair. You walked up to the cashier picked what you wanted from the menu, paid and waited for it to be put on a tray in front of you and of you go to find a place to sit. But this new Yoshinoya at MidValley is a different beast altogether. But before we get to that a little background on Yoshinoya.

A Little Macanese Food Treat...

Okay, so this could possibly be, most likely to be the last blog post for the year and what a year it has been. All those early movie premiers and movie previews courtesy of the cool folks at Nuffnang and Churp Churp. Even some free movie tickets from TGV, GSC and even from BFM.My. Even got to go to a theater show thanks to the guys and Nuffnang and Lumi Air: A Cirque Extraordinaire this year all for free. And all that helped me and this blog get well over 12,000 visitors in a little over 5 months. It really does amaze me. Not only that but I tried out for a contest and won an all expense paid trip to Macau!! Sure as heck has been an interesting year ever since this blog started. 

Where it was held...

Well, for this last blog it's going to be something related to that trip to Macau that I won. See, not only did I win the trip but I also got invited to a Macanese Food Demonstration held by those good folks at the Malaysian Representatives of the Macau Government Tourist Office. It was a pretty small affair held at the Starhill Culinary Studio with only a bunch of media journalist in attendance and a select group of bloggers. The whole point of the event was to introduce the local delicacies of Macau to Malaysians who have basically never tried Macanese food.
