Ice Cream – Take 1 ! *help*

Dear readers,

My ice cream maker has finally landed in my house!! *hooray* i been waiting the arrival of it for ages!! haha.. well, follow the instruction given, i have clean it thoroughly to prevent food poisoning! lols..

Well, i would like to define my title for this entry, “Ice Cream – Take 1” ,

>>Ice Cream<< , that was what i wanted to make!

>>Take 1<< : I going to successfully make it in during my second attempt!!

 

I found this machine is so SEXY!! haha…

Ingredient:

Semi-skimmed milk    : 300ml
Caster Sugar           : 75g
Double cream              : 325ml
Vanilla essence                  : few drops

 
[Problem 1: I wasn’t using the correct material! It was mainly because i couldn’t get DOUBLE CREAM in my area , so i use normal baking cream (WTH is double cream??) ;  and i doubt HL is half skimmed milk..]

 
STEP 1: Place the milk and sugar into a saucepan. Place over a low heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved.

[In step 1, Nothing can gone wrong right?]

STEP 2: Leave it until cold.

STEP 3: Stir the cream and vanilla essence into the cooled milk.

[Problem 2: Was that the correct way? Jus stir the cream..?]

 
STEP 4: Pour the mixture into the freezer bowl with the paddle running.

[Problem 3: well, the machine’s only motor is on the top part which only meant to remote the paddle.. I wonder another freezing engine missing at the bottom?? *blurr*]

Allow to freeze until the desires consistency is achieved!

Outcome: FROZEN VANNILA MILK

PROBLEM:: what i want is ICE CREAM!!

not VANNILA FLAVOUR ICE!!!!

HELP HELP HELP!!!

Steven’s TeaGarden @ Semenyih Tesco

Founded by K.Simon and Lalitha way back in 1977, Steven’s Corner started as a Mamak stall located at the Overseas Union Garden, off Old Klang Road, Kuala Lumpur. Steven’s Corner inadvertently derived became mainly from Silan ( a member of the operating the stall) being mispronounced as Steven, and the fact that the stall sat strategically at a shop corner, hence the name Steven’s Corner.

At first, Steven’s corner only served roti canai, teh tarik and mamak fried noodles. However, over the years it has added more varieties to its menu as customers’ demands and patronage increased. In 1985, Steven’s corner relocated its business entity under Sri Komalah Restaurant and it started to operating on 24 hours, 7 days a week basis. By 1997, Steven’s Corner expanded its operations to Pandan Indah, Cheras and subsequently in 2007 its third outlet in Setapak.

Needless to say that by sheer determination and banking on customers loyal support, the once Mamak has now turned into a full fledged model restaurant serving thousands of patrons daily at all the 3 outlets.

Dragon - i

Here's a short review on the Dragon-i restaurant.


One thing worth mentioning is that they serve very efficiently. unless otherwise stated in the menu that longer time will be taken to serve a particular dish, the average time per dish is served to the customer is between the time span of 5 to 10 minutes.

My last experience eating in Dragon-i was on Valentine's Day early this year.


Under normal circumstance, eating out in any restaurant on any of the special occasions will only result in you struggling to secure seats in the midst of the ever-growing crowds. the lucky ones who manage to secure a table for 2 or more will often find themselves waiting impatiently while waiting for the meals to be served.

A different scenario altogether in Dragon-i. Dont need to wait too long to be served seats, and definitely dont need to wait long for food to be served.

Dont get me wrong, crowd is always there - has always been there, meant to be there - but what surprised me most is how fast they serve the dishes in spite of the growing crowds and customers every now and then.


Service wise, i'll give a thumb-up for its professionalism.

Food quality wise, it depends on what you order.

spicy taufu rice

steam pork rice

Ramen

Shanghai dumplings

salted taufu

all these cost us about RM82.80.

Dragon-i can be found in One-utama, mid valley and pavilion.

give it a try, let them have u 'wow' at their service.

overall rating : 7/10
