Unzipping Tea Party with Bag of Love & Delectable Su

ARGH! 3 weeks delay to update this! Damn I'm a horrid blogger T_T. Right after this event, I had so much work piling up not to mention I had a shoot early May so had to put my blogging on halt. But now that I'm back (hopefully long enough to churn out a few posts), would like to share about the last event I went which was an UNZIPPING event hehehe. No it didn't involve me or any other human unzipping lol.


Late April, I scored an invite to be one of the first few people to unzip Bag of Love's April bag :D. There were 2 sessions with 15 people for each sessions held at Delectable Su. 

Arrived at Delectable Su to find the area sealed off for us *_*
One of the rare times that people arrived much earlier :P Guess everyone's so excited for the tea party *w*. 

Tea set up for the party :D


The dessert table that greeted the girls *_* OMIGOSH look at all those desserts!!! So many of us and only 15 of us haha I didn't touch much of the desserts cuz I'm not one to eat such sweet foods so early in the morning ><. 

Pusheen: CAKEEEEE. Annnddddd it jumped straight on the dessert table. 
Being bloggers, we were all swarming the dessert table and snapping photos for a good hour. No one dared to touch the food for some unknown reason haha. Maybe scared other people haven't got their shots? Or desserts too pretty to eat? XD

Caramel peanuts~
All day suckers and chocolate mousse cake in cute teacups~ I took the lollipop home and gave it to my  bf's maid haha

Decorated cupcakes. Butterfly for Butterfly Project group and the heart shape represents Bag of Love :D
Plenty just for 15 eh? That's not the end of it. On our tables where was also a tea time set with various pastries, savories and cakes for us to sample. 

Pusheen likes it~
Bloggers seated at the table to rest and wait for our VIP guest :D

Meet Mi Mi, a self professed beauty addict, formerly a beauty writer for some of the biggest beauty magazines in Malaysia and now the person behind the Bag of Love. I was surprised to find out she's a mum to two kids! OAO She's so bubbly yet humble as she spoke about the Bag of Love, telling us her difficulties when preparing the bags while sharing how much she enjoys what she's doing. After her speech, Santa Tammy came out and gave us each an April edition Bag of Love (wheee!!!).

Using my skirt as a backdrop hoho~
Tadaa! featuring April's Bag of Love! The bag is made of bleach-free canvas and the Bag of Love tag inside is made from recyclable non-woven material. Don't be fooled by how fragile it feels as Mi Mi said this bag is quite heavy duty :D

The girls instagramming, posting up their beauty bags

PRODUCTS INSIDE THE BAGGG />w</
Oh wow!! Look at all those products!!! My mind immediately registered Body Shop, Decleor, Burts Bees and Definite! So happy that there's a Definite brush in the bag! :D Last month, it was a cheek brush, this time it's a contour brush which is a cosplayer's must have hehe! I was considering to buy a contour brush but not anymore as the Definite brush in April's Bag of Love is in FULL SIZE! :D More about the products in the next post!

TT__TT Thank you The Butterfly Project for working hard to organize the event for us girls! And thank you Delectable Su AND Bag of Love for such a wonderful tea time session :3 For those who were drolling at the food thinking they missed out, fear not as the tea time you saw on the table is part of Delectable Su's Tea Time Treats which is available everyday from 2pm - 6pm at only RM15 for 1, RM28 for 2 person


Do check out Delectable Su's album for more mouth-watering pictures of her Tea Time Treats! Plus if you pre-book your tea session, you'll receive a fun little Delectable fabric button~ :3

Crap... didn't realize a hair on my skirt there >_>

Just as I was already walking on clouds with my new Bag of Love, Delectable Su surprised us all by giving us a set of Delectable fabric buttons for keeps! Omigoshhhhhh <3 Many thanks to Su!!! <3 

Happy little girl together with Mi Mi~
A special post about April's Bag of Love will be up next~ In the mean time, if you're keen to join in the fun, do join The Butterfly Project community. I heard there's an exciting project in June coming up~~~ :)

Tosaya Japanese Restaurant @ Taman Midah, Cheras

My next expedition brought me to a Japanese restaurant nestled near the rows of hawker centres in Taman Midah. Really, I never expected a Japanese Restaurant to be here since the next road has a string of hawker centers until my friend recommended me this place to meet up for dinner.

The front of the restaurant :D 
From the front door, it doesn't look like your average Sushi King restaurant. The front is hard to miss since to Tosaya word is kinda big :D You'll see this the moment you turn into the junction.

The interior that greets us at the entrance. Oooohhh look some familiar faces! :D
My company for the evening. Misao missing from the picture cuz he was late T_T
Tables separated by dividers for more privacy. 
Japanese patterned bowls, cups and teapots decorated on the walls along the cashier~
Main reason we came to this place was for the All You Can Eat Wagyu Beef!!! Ohohohoho You can choose between sukiyaki or shabu-shabu to cook your beef. 2 person for only RM88 for All You Can Eat WAGYU Beef heheh why not!! My doctor asked me to eat more beef since I had low iron count so I thought it'll be a good opportunity to pig out :D. Sadly luck wasn't on our side as the waitress told us that their stock of beef is kinda low so the Beef Buffet is Out of Stock for now...... *SOBSSSSS*

All You Can Eat Wagyu spread on the menu *sobs*
End up we had to order something else *sniffs*. I picked something from the bento sets. We saw that there were some stuffs wrapped in bacon so decided to give it a go.

Char Siu Ramen
Enoki Bacon. Enoki mushrooms wrapped with bacon
Gyoza
My Salmon with Chicken bento set
Junnie's Beef Mayo bento set. 
Quails egg wrapped with Bacon and also some Chicken + Onions
Presentation of the sets are not bad and surprisingly filling despite the small salmon piece I had ._. The chicken given in the salmon set was a bit tough and tasted almost like the Karage chicken at Marufuku (of course... Marufuku is better sad to say). As for the bacon wrapped quails egg, you can probably see in the photos that it's not very appetizing.... it isn't and the bacon is VERY small ._.

I find the pricing a little steep for what I got so far. Bento sets range from RM23+ onwards. My Salmon set was RM29 if not mistaken and I'm not that happy for the tough chicken in that set. Even the bacon wrapped items was about RM6.

The restaurant is kinda small, can't really cater to big groups. I recommend you better make a reservation before coming over especially during peak periods the place can get a bit crowded. Ambiance was nice but the crowd that was there when I was dining was horrible as there were 2-3 kids running around screaming their heads off so I sent them a glare to shut them up.... 

Even though I've got quite some complaints over the food but I'm still keen on trying their beef set hoho~ 

Ended the night with some sake :D

Thye Shin & Ai Ling's Wedding @ Melaka

Ahhh lazy lazy me can never maintain a blog at this rate @__@;; Give me a week off, and it'll be difficult for me to come back and write something T__T. Went to attend a wedding during one of the weekends. It was the first time I had to attend a wedding in another state so we rounded up a few friends and took a day trip there. Needless to say that with a one-day trip to Melaka + bunch of people = makan session!

Had onigiri for lunch at Niko-Niko Onigiri before we started our journey
Made a pit-stop at Seremban to get some Siew Pau. When it comes to Siew Pau in Seremban, Empayar Seremban Siew Pau floods the whole area. Seriously I think there's like 5-6 shops scattered all around the place including on the highway but the place we wanted to go is one of the hipster smaller shops located in the city.
Hipster shop! Kee Mei Siew Pow :D
The shop is located in one of the smaller roads nearby KFC. Even the shop itself is almost barely noticeable XD;; I found the place when I made a pit-stop at Seremban.

Welcome~~~~
Siew Pao~~~
Other pastries available~

While browsing FourSquare, we also found another place that is famous for its cendol. Since we were around the area, why not have a try? :D 

Impossibly hard to miss stall, Haji Shariff's Cendol, very green OAO
Only one person to prepare the cendol O_O
Everything is green in this place! The tiles, floor, tables, chairs and even the uniform! There's many types of cendol here but we ordered the normal and the cendol pulut since it was recommended in FourSquare.
Cendol served within minutes :D in a double layered stainless steel bowl.
I'm not a fan of cendol so I can't give any comment on it :P but the rest say it's so-so. After all the distraction in Seremban, we continued our journey to Melaka~

Reached! ^o^V
We reached the hotel about 5pm+ so we had plenty of time to change and do our makeup~ Too bad there's no showers for us T_T felt so stickyyyy.

Lepak before the event!
The table near the reception showing the couples photos and a doodle section~

Outfit for the night~ Finally get to wear my asymmetrical skirt from Supre \*O*/ Think I might need to trim the length cuz it makes my legs look short ><
Me and Audrey~ Now my face shape looks different @_@
Peeps at our table~
Next table full of happy MMU-ians
Enter the bride and groom~! Congrats to them! :D
Another highlight for the night was a VERY drunk Fazri. 
So ghey~
Videos of Fazri shall be uploaded on to my FB soon~ hehehehe >D
