TIKI TAKA @ MEDAN DAMANSARA

I love tapas and I love having them in La Bodega. That's until recently, before I found this Tiki Taka place coincidentally while roaming around the Bukit Damansara area one day before meeting up with a friend. Looking sleek and cosy, Tiki Taka has plenty to offer. With the concept of Pintxos (small bites), one gets to enjoy a variety of dishes in just one seating. You'll definitely be spoilt for choice!
Pata Negra con Melon (RM10).
We started off with this Pata Negra con Melon - Iberico ham, melon ball and parsley served on a toast drizzled with olive oil. I'm a fan of Iberico pig (I'm sure you would know after reading some of my posts). Haha! I liked how the sweet honeydew melon ball added that bit of 'freshness' in this :) Next, these 2 cute burgers:
The two cute mini burgers :P
Salted Egg Crab Bun (RM9).
Lobster en brioche (RM9).
The salted egg crab bun - a bite-size portion of charcoal brioche buns with salted egg crab meat, curry leaves, bird's eye chilli and and salted egg cream sauce, was pretty good - rich in flavor. The Lobster en brioche (creamy slipper lobster, truffle mushroom and finely diced vegetables sandwiched in charcoal brioche buns), on the other hand, was a tad too salty for me.
Sriracha Gambas Al Ajillo (RM24).
Gambas Al Ajillo is one of my must-order whenever I have tapas. Tiki Taka serves these sauteed prawns with a twist - with added Sriracha sauce. Not bad, but I still prefer the plain old garlicky ones with pepper flakes.
Strawberry Chicken Pizza (RM20).
We tried this Strawberry Chicken Pizza too. Sounds like a weird combo, right? But trust me, it's pretty not bad. The ingredients (grilled chicken, strawberries, cheese, balsamic glaze and caramelized onions) actually went well with the smoky BBQ sauce!
Nutella Bacon Wantons (RM12).
For desserts, we had the Nutella Bacon Wantons. I was scratching my head whether to get these wantons or the Milo Tree-ramisu but I'm glad I chose the wantons in the end. The wantons were good but I absolutely loved the berries in balsamic vinegar, balsamic glaze and snow sugar on the side!
Margarita (RM25).
Classic Mojito (RM25).
As for drinks, you can choose to have wines, beers or cocktails - all reasonably priced. We had Carlsberg (Happy Hour Rate: RM32 for 2 pints) and cocktails (Happy Hour Rate: RM40 for 2, either Margarita or Classic Mojito) that night.

 Overall, we enjoyed ourselves that night. Service was good - they were friendly and made some good recommendations. Will definitely be back for more creative tapas!

YACON SOUP WITH CORN AND CARROT

Was shopping at the usual supermarket recently when I saw a lady promoting something which, from far, looked like sweet potatoes to me. I didn't pay attention to her til she called out to me and handed me a piece to sample. She was promoting organic yacons, not sweet potato. The moment I put it into my mouth, I remembered eating this looong time ago, but because I seldom see it in the supermarkets, I had totally forgotten about such a thing.  The yacon is a traditionally grown for its crisp, sweet-tasting, tuberous roots. Though the root looks like a   sweet potato, the taste and texture are completely different. Its crispy texture, juiciness and mildly sweet taste makes it somewhat similar to water chestnut or snow pear. It can be eaten raw or cook. It is said that yacon  is very high in fiber and low in calories which makes it a healthy and nutritious snack.   Some of the health benefits of yacon include its ability to regulate blood sugar ...

CHINESE ARROWROOT SOUP WITH PORK BONES

This is the simple version of the Chinese arrowroot soup (Also known as 粉葛湯 'Fun Kot Tong' in Cantonese). Our family love drinking this soup. It is tasty and cooking it with pork bones and dried squid makes it sweet and refreshing. Some people who like boiling arrowroot together with lotus roots or peanuts, and my mother-in-law usually boils it on its own and drink as 'cooling' tea. Naturally sweet and tasty. If you don't like seafood, you can choose to omit the dried squid. This is how the Chinese arrowroot looks like.  The arrowroot is a type of root plant similar to taro, potato or tapioca. However, it is harder in texture and incredibly starchy. When it is cut up, it has patterns that looks like the ages of a tree trunk. It is usually made into powder and used as thicken agent in cooking. The arrowroot is high in protein and fiber which is very beneficial to our body. Ingredients: 1 medium-sized Chinese arrowroot (Approx 700g) 10 red dates, ...

APPLE SOUP WITH BLACK FUNGUS AND RED DATES

I realized we women often busy ourselves taking care of family members and at times end up neglecting our own health. Besides handling tons of household chores, mothers and housewives must allocate time for themselves to relax, meet up with friends, or to cook nutritious soup for themselves! I came across this special soup recipe for women and would like to share all the other women out there. Black fungus reduces fat. Apple promotes indigestion. Dried tangerine peel strengthens spleen. This soup is suitable for mothers who often finish leftover foods so that they aren't wasted as it can help get rid of excess fats that are the result of over-eating. Ingredients: (Serves 1 - Me! lol) 1 piece of black fungus 2 apples 5 red dates lean meat or pork bones, approx 200g 1 piece of dried tangerine peel Adequate water Rinse red dates and remove pits. Soak dried tangerine peel until soft and remove white pith. Rinse apples, remove cores and cut them into pieces. Scald...
