I decided to drop by Cafe Chino at Hilton KL for tea yesterday since I was nearby. It felt very Christmasy with a fire place complete with stockings, reindeers adorning the stairs near the Cosmo Lounge and a super huge Santa Clause at the Coffee House. I just realised I should have taken photos. *smacks head*


I was peckish as lunch was a light quick one so I opted for something savoury before the sweeties. The Balsamic Vegetable Feta Cheese Quiche (RM22) was perfect to fill me up with room for cakes. The crust was light and flaky and the quiche was smooth. A tad more feta wouldn't hurt though.


And how could I not order the Christmas Log (RM16) when Christmas is just four days away. Moist chocolate sponge with rich dark chocolate cream filling encased in buttercream icing was my sinful chocolate fix of the day. *yumss*



I think the lil angel was calling out to me when I ordered the Oreo Cheesecake (RM16). Isn't she pretty. The cake on the other hand was just as "pretty". It was smooth with just the right amount of oreo to keep me wanting more. Of course that lasted until I polished off the cake then realised it was a bit much. Lol.


This reminds me I have to get more Virginia Brownies from Coffee Bean before Christmas. It's already Wednesday, gosh I have to be quick!

You might look like this while trying to answer the questions. Or maybe it was just me.. lol! I had to answer about 10 questions in 5 minutes. Despite the fact I was stressing, I could find each answer within seconds.


"CONNECT. COMMUNICATE. CONQUER"



In the past 13 years, Estee Lauder Companies Malaysia has distributed more than 550,000 Breast Self Examination instructional cards and Pink Ribbons!!

Last night's illumination of the iconic Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad makes it 38!! A new Guiness World Record for "Most Landmarks Illuminated for a Cause in 24 hours". Yeah thats right, The Estee Lauder Companies illuminated 38 global historic landmarks in PINK LIGHTS over a 24-hour period of time to commemorate Breast Cancer Awareness Month, dubbed "Pink October". *standing ovation*


The pink marquees were lit with pink lights

The monuments illuminated world wide have become international symbols of hope, with the goal that when a woman sees a pink landmark, she will be inspired to get a a mammogram or seek information about breast health.

This year's feat to bathe the magnificent Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad in pink was not only inspirational but also incredible! A befitting choice as the building and Dataran Merdeka has such a significant and important history behind it.

Two great landmarks - Pink-ed!!

It is the 4th year Malaysia has participated in this global initiative! In 2007, Malaysia proudly illuminated the then newly-opened Pavilion KL. This was followed by the illumination of the KL Tower in 2008 and 2009. This year not only one but TWO landmarks will be ablaze in pink lights - Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad for the 1st time ever and Menara  KL for the 3rd year running. Tremendous effort to create awareness!!
