Moussandra.

Can someone stop me please, I can't stop binging these 2 weeks. It's meal after meal, snack after snack, and I don't even feel mildly guilty for it. T_T





Went out with the boyfriend for a last-minute nice dinner outing recently. It was a late congratulatory dinner for my success in getting a job offer! Never mind that I was offered the job 3 months ago, I am not going to reject a free meal am I! :P

Now now, I love the mary-janes I had on, but when the boyfriend saw my shoes along with the opaques I was wearing, he said I looked like those padfoot cats. Y'know, those cats with snowy white paws.





WTFFFFF. -_______-
Men and fashion! Sigh.




Just want to show this gorgeous satin cuff I got recently. Love those gold links on it!


The boyfriend, when he saw the gold cuffs on the bangle-- "is that a lizard?"
WTFFFFF. I have to repeat myself, men and fashion!! -_____________-






We went to Moussandra, which I first read from quaintly.net -- it turned out that the place is really really near to the boyfriend's workplace; in fact, he has been there during his lunch break! Since the boyfriend is much much better in navigations than I am, he brought me there-- I would never have been able to find the place on my own. :(


Pictures of the place:


Authentic-looking heavy wooden menu plate. Emphasis on heavy!
If I had to lift this menu everytime before I eat, I would never put on weight, 'cause all the fats will burn away just from the act wtf.











The interior of the place is slightly rustic, with knick-knacks strewn all over. It has this endearing rickety sort of charm, which keeps your eyes wandering to see what else would catch your eyes. :)



Like this thing on the ceiling, for example.

I was skimming the place up and down, trying to absorb the sights, and I saw this random racket-like thing on top of me! It turns out that it is used to to grill meats-- simply put the meat inside and start hovering it on top of a fire. :D




Really really creative candles bedecking every table-- as each freshly inserted candle melts, its trickling wax will create an entirely unique canopy of colorful wax! No single candle stand looks the same.

It's rather mesmerizing to watch each drip of wax making new forms on the candle stand. :P



Watching art in the making, haha.


The boyfriend said that we should do this candle thingy in our house next time; I just nodded layan-ly. Deep down, I knew it wasn't possible, because knowing how clumsy I am, if we have candles lying around, I would knock them over, and burn the house down. No more house left. T_______T



The boyfriend with his new Hugo Boss glasses, the vainpot went to 10 shops before he found one that he could 'settle for'. -___-




Hello, I am your neighbourhood sexy librarian!


Sigh, actually, I need new glasses. My current glasses are all bent and out of shape because I slept on it recently. T____T In fact, it is perched all wrong on my nose-- I see things lopsided now. T___T

By the way, the power of my shortsightedness is really really bad-- I am nearly blind without contacts/glasses. :( It's all my fault, 'cause when I was 10, when I first started realizing that I couldn't see the scribbles on the blackboard from afar, I just ignored it and refused to tell my mom. I was convinced that I would be super ugly with spectacles, and I'd rather die than get one. Over the years, my eyesight just kept on deteriorating, and in the end, I couldn't put it off any longer. By then, my eyesight was already... let's just say I am blind as a bat. :'(


Food!
Moussandra is most renowned for its tapas-- in fact, it's the oldest tapas place in KL, and it serves arguably the best tapas in town. :P


Tapas:


Deep fried mozzarella cheese sticks with special anchovy sauce.




Grilled prawns on a stick with asparagus and olives and garlic mayonnaise dressing.



Mains:




My chicken souvlaki.




Check out the handle of the kebab stick!!! I felt I was a Roman gladiator wtf.




I really couldn't resist!
And with the ribbon and my hair in a bun, I looked like those olden days Chinese Hero brandishing a sword, HAHAHA.




The boyfriend's moussaka-- baked cheese with layers of eggplant and ground lamb underneath.


I don't take lamb AT ALL, I can't stand the smell/taste of it, but the boyfriend kept on threatening to kiss me as he steadily ate his dish. T_____T




The boy with the smallest eyes in the world.







Self-indulging pictures! Am trying to play-up my outfits recently, am bored with wearing dresses non-stop, meh.


















Eee, the boyfriend's car is filled with litter! =/

you look gorgeous babes! where u bought ur top ? : )
and i so agree with u about men and fashion ! : P
i think secretly men are jealous of us women because we got much more choices of clothes..
men can only wear shirts, t-shirts, polo.. and only jeans ..
whereas women can have a variety of shorts, high waist shorts etc.. hahaha... *proud to be a women look* HAHAHAHA
