Lunch @ Bubba Gump & Shrimp Co.

I read in an article in Harmoni about a new eatary in Sunway Pyramid offering hot new western menus with mouthwatering pictures of the menus as well, it really got stuck in my head....since Yas & me regularly go to TGI Friday's if we crave for westerns, we got tired of the same menus after the years. So when we came across the articles, the saliva kept on drooling for the delicious looking hot new place!

Last friday (July 29th) we gave it a try...and boy oh boy it was so worth it! Pada sesape teringin nk makan western food yang best beserta 'ambience' yang menarik..silalah try tempat ini di Sunway Pyramid!

Refreshing beverages...Yas chose a combination of mango juice, orange juice & lemonade while i settled for a lemonade with strawberries..
Menu: Bourbon Catch of the Day (fish or chicken). I chose chicken cos the fish of the day was Tallapia...i hate freshwater fish aside from keli goreng berlada and so that's how the chicken got served instead! It has yummy shrimps as sidekicks and on the sideline is mashed potatoes garnished with fries...last but not least, creamy cheese gravy poured on them. The only downside of it is it has no veggies...if only they serve this with freshly steamed broccolies/asparagus...yg hijau2 kat atas tu hiasan jer duhhh!!

Yas tried salmon..i gave it a passed cos it has rice. Bila makan western ni rasa cam tanak ada nasik hahaha..eksennnya! Well..this salmon offering has buttered rice and asparagus with carrots as its sideline. It tasted ok but if only they cook the salmon "well done" as i preferred. By the way this is the only menu that has salmon, so for salmon lovers..take this or leave it haha..


The ambience...rasa macam ada kat tepi pelabuhan bot2 nelayan di US, tapi sebenarnya tempat ni mengambil inspirasi daripada filem Forrest Gump. The whole place is decorated with momentoes from the film



2 orang kakitangan kerajaan yang sedang menikmati western food idaman...oh yeah lupa letak gambar desert, but you can clearly see it right in the middle...bread pudding with cinnamon, served with vanilla ice-cream on top & custard pudding around it, OMG so yummylicious...tapi sebab dah kenyang giler makan main meal, tak abis pun desert tu..luckily we ordered refreshing beverages to kill-off rasa muak tu...silalah try kalau teringin hehe

this restaraunt is owned by Kumpulan Naza and is the largest outlet in Asia!

Dia demam lagi..

Dua tiga menjak ni kerap benar Nayra ni demam..aritu sebab Viral Infection, pastu selsema..lama jugak seminggu lebih, then selsema pun tak baik lagi, demam panas pulak..

Dulu dia jarang benar demam..takpe la..maybe ada skill baru nk dapat lagi kot..hmm cubaan untuk memujuk hati yang risau

Harini syamariz EL lagi jawabnya..bila dah ada anak ni baru tau nape dulu2 kengkawan yg ada anak selalu MC la, cuti la..rupanya gini, setahun pertama dalam hidup seorang bayi tu tidak pernah sunyi dari demam

Harap2 kalini sebab nak tumbuh gigi atau merangkak...

syamariz note:
emmm..syamariz tak bawak pun nayra jumpa doc cos ubat demam, selsema, batuk etc memang dah ada spare kat umah, just kerap basahkan badan dia dgn air dan bagi dia banyak minum air/susu/jus...harap2 elok la...cepat sembuh ya baby mama sayanggg

Susu oh susu..

Syamariz memang ada problem dgn production susu badan since nayra's birth...BM (breast milk) cuma keluar hari ke-4, itu pun setelah diurut dan di stimulasikan menggunakan breastpump..tapi production memang sikit, ada la dalam 2 sudu besar kot..it's pathetic i know...jadinya nayra memang dah disuap dengan formula since hari pertama lagi..

Wpun production BM syamariz alahai sikit..tapi tak pernah mengalah ok..dapat jugak la 3 bulan wpun tak ekslusif, hari2 pam kat ofis sampai ofismate naik kesian tengok production dalam botol tu, dapat la dlm purata 2oz..cuba macam2 cara tapi tak jalan sampai akhirnya amik ubat doc, production boom 3-4oz tapi menjunam semula bila ubat dah abis..cukup 3 bulan nayra dah start muak bila BF (breastfeed) so syamariz stop pumping lelama susu kering sendiri..

As DEMC was using Frisolac brand at the time of nayra's birth, to make things easy, i just continued with the brand at home. Jadi nayra memang membesar dgn debabnya thanks to Frisolac. After a while, i got bored using the brand..actually i wanted to try Enfa brand because of the DHA factor..kandungan DHA dia memang jauh lebih tinggi dari Frisolac. At 8 months now, i think it is the right time to switch to other quality brand. Now i'm not saying that Frisolac is not quality, after all..my baby has no major problem when consuming it. Lebih kepada ingin mencuba sesuatu yang baru..

Nak tukar bcos nak try susu mahal, nak susu yang 4x kandungan DHA dan kurang lemak..Alhamdulillah, nayra has no problem tukar susu at 8 months. Syamariz dapati Enfapro A+ ni teksturnya lebih halus dan berdebu, tetapi tidak berbau macam Frisolac wpun susu dah terbiar lama, pasal rasa no komen sebab tak pernah rasa dua2 brand itu (eiii tak lalu heheh)..



Susu lama (Frisolac Gold Stage 2) dan susu baru (Enfapro A+ Stage 2)


Nayra now @ 8 months..

Last saturday, syamariz bawak baby nayra pegi DEMC for her 8th month injection. Woooo..DEMC has moved to a new building near to PKNS Shah Alam. Cantikkk, moden & selesa..tak payah lagi bersesak2 menunggu giliran dalam tempat yang sempit macam dulu..ye laa dulu dekat corner lot rumah kedai seksyen 9, sekarang dah ada bangunan sendiri..oh ya DEMC berpindah sejak akhir Jun 2010



So back to nayra's injection, actually kalau ikut jadual cucuk, last sekali 6 bulan then the next one adalah bila dia setahun, setahun 3 bulan and so on... In between, parents have options to give optional injections at 8, 10 & 13 months..the injection is for "Pneumococcal 1st, 2nd & booster dose", i can say that it is quite expensive compared to the scheduled ones



Cucuk kali ni macam biasa nayra tak meragam sangat..setakat ni dia tak pernah lagi la meraung atau menangis bila kena cucuk..setakat ekkk terkejut je, demam pun takde Alhamdulillah..doktor pulak macam biasa nayra jumpa favourite doc dia Dr Roliza (actually mama dia yg suka). Yang best kat DEMC baru ni, dia ada garden open air kat tengah2 klinik pakar tu..so sementara tunggu nombor boleh la bawak baby jalan2 amik fresh air sambil dia tengok budak2 lain main..tak tension sangat menunggu



Ok..my baby has now entering her 8th month of age, her progress/development now :-



- Weight : 9.55kg (kalini weight gain tak banyak macam dulu maybe bcos dah lasak)

-Length : 78 cm (doc kata dia kategori panjang)

-New skills: Duduk dengan stabil dah...kadang2 tu dia boleh bangun sendiri dari position baring dan terus duduk. Skil lain adalah kejar org dgn walker dia serta mengesot laju2..emmm tak banyak progress since her 7th month...i wonder bila dia nak tumbuh gigi
