Dining In the Dark KL
Guys, I am very excited and enthusiastic to write down this great dinner experience before I forget the step by step and the process of the it.
Well, few weeks before, my cousin sister told me about a restaurant she is about to try which called "dining in the dark". I thought of the restaurant try to figure what was it about and I remembered a chef I knew roughly told me about the story of dining in the dark in Zurich, Switzerland who his son was planning to try it. Okay, since I missed that in Switzerland when I was still there having my last internship and well, after my cousin talked about it. Hmm, I decided to experience this once in my life thus I start grabbing my buddy and partner to join me experiencing this fantastic dinner. How to make reservation? How I started was, I called via a mobile number for booking and the staff asked my for email address to send me the confirmation and it was done just like that.
The restaurant was kind of hidden, it was on the second floor and it is along the way of Changkat, Bukit Bintang. For me, it was a bit hard for me to find this dining place however I called for assistance, they waved at me to lead me to the restaurant and so I arrived. We went up to the waiting lobby and soon a staff came to us and ask us what we would like for drink, they showed us a game and asked us to blind fold ourselves to complete the task. After awhile, they start asking us to prepare ourselves and get ready for the dinner for instance, make sure you went to the toilet and make sure your electric gadgets and anything involve lights are kept or stored in the lockers they provided. Then, we were being lead hand on shoulder of each other and enter the dark dark dining room. Guys! Total darkness, you can't even see what's around and what you can hear was the cutlery and the CCTV red lights. A serving crew will bring us one by one to our seat and give us an orientation of the thing placed on the table. Then, we start serving us food.
Throughout the dinner time, they will tell you position of your food without telling you what are they therefore, you will be able to experience and try food that you normally do not consume but eating it without fear. I personally think that this is a very good experience as this gave me a reason and peacefulness of eating AND nobody can play their SMARTPHONES during dinner time which I kinda hate it you know...
There were 3 courses fine dining and the duration was about one and a half to two hours time, the serving crew said that we were eating too fast HAHA. The crews were friendly and nice the service was excellent and I enjoyed having dinner there very much. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family. Finally it came to an end, we were brought out from the dark dark dining room, the crew told us not to open our eyes too quickly as we stayed in the dark for quite a long time and we need some time to adapt to the lights. We were given a paper asking about the ingredients and the contents in the food we just ate and of course suggestions for the dining in the future.
We asked the serving crew about the establishment of Dining In the Dark KL, surprisingly it only opened for not more than a year. Furthermore, we were curious about the crews serving us well, they were all well-trained serving us of course, you will need to avoid crashing with them because the serving crew do not have anything
assisting them except the feelings! They feel it whenever they serve you, I'm pretty proud of them working in this dining room, it is a very unique dining experience and I love it very much!
Keep it up, you are doing great!
XOXO, your guest.

happy mommy's day!
I know I can never pay back how much my mom has given to me, I love you mom.
I won't boast my mom too much =) however, I feel blessed to have her in my life. No doubt everyone must be saying their moms are the best and her mom is superwoman etc. Well, to be honest, which mom doesn't pamper and treasure their kids? Moms can never be judged and compared because mom only treat their family good! This year, we three sisters replaced mom's old printed towels with this mom irene towel. She claimed that, these towels are only for her at any time or place, she also said that whenever she is away from home these two towels will be the spirit for her to continue her mission until she accomplish and come home, I touched =')
Well, this present was not that luxurious but we know she will be using these towels everyday everywhere any second on the bed, in the toilet.
I sometimes wonder, how can my mom doing house chores, business, cooking, planting, sewing non-stop? How can she do that till the extend? I was nagging and mumbling and scolding my family members because of the house chores as I was doing the laundry for 5 members everyday. Think about it, I have only completed a part of them and I started nagging..bilibalabilibala...MY MOM? she just smile and continue hers. One time, I was so pissed that I shouted I want to get married and stay away from a home where the people living inside do nothing! Yea, I didn't got paid with the extra thing that I do at home but why must I do all these things while they are just like my customers paying me for laundry but FOC? Hmm, but my mom just told me, "ha ha, I have been doing these ever since you guys were born!" tsk tsk. I have always wonder if I could become quarter of my mother of managing things, that would be enough for me. I want her mission, spirit, energy, where do they come from? What makes her think that she has to keep doing it without pausing? With the movement everytime, I got so nervous and restless just to wish to help her completing half of her task BUT....her taskssssssss = infinity.
She is a supermom just like other mothers, she is willing to contribute to make our lives easier and simpler, oh more comfortable..but sometimes she is a bit bossy too i believe every mother should be like that too and she will start scolding us for not making things right, not listening to her, not having dinner with her all nights, and not going out with her during Sundays (family day).
Every mother will ass through the stage where they will feel insecure because all of her kids has grown up and they are having their own life, HOWEVER,, remember to take care of your parents and always accompany them whenever they need you, drag out some time for them just to make them happy =)
BECAUSE...you will live longer alone without them than be by their side.
XOXO, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
