At the time of writing, I've made three visits to the outlet in Tropicana City Mall. The café's mainstay to being a viable competitor to the aforementioned coffee giants in Malaysia appears to be their beans, known as Kona beans that hail from Hawaii. These beans are supposedly among the best in the world, and rare enough that the café sells 2 blends of it, the 100% Kona and the 10% Kona blend, with the latter's beans mixed in with normal imported beans (most likely from Brazil or Africa). 100% blend brews cost roughly twice as much as their 10% counterparts (e.g. espresso, au lait,&amp;nbsp; cappuccino, etc).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S43_Gt4ni7I/AAAAAAAAAKI/99Bqu9QLqXs/s1600-h/_MG_5644_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="251" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S43_Gt4ni7I/AAAAAAAAAKI/99Bqu9QLqXs/s400/_MG_5644_fb.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;I've given the Au Lait (both 10% and 100%) and Latte a try (don't ask me why they have both on their menu, I thought they were supposed to mean the same thing in French and Italian). Although I'm pretty certain anyone who's had their taste of Melbournian coffee will find this nothing to shout about, I can say that the taste of the 100% blend is rather rich and smooth, albeit a bit bolder than I'd like. Add the fact that they used Australian milk (Farm House) with their brew, and it makes for a rather pleasing taste altogether. As for the 10% blend, I found it slightly too diluted (could be the fact that I had it iced), but it was fresh and free of that sour aftertaste I sometimes get from Starbucks coffees.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S437m_gVetI/AAAAAAAAAJ4/GXHKGTZ37VI/s1600-h/_MG_4902_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S437m_gVetI/AAAAAAAAAJ4/GXHKGTZ37VI/s400/_MG_4902_fb.JPG" width="393" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S439PZ6jubI/AAAAAAAAAKA/p_5e3AdIx58/s1600-h/_MG_5642_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="267" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S439PZ6jubI/AAAAAAAAAKA/p_5e3AdIx58/s400/_MG_5642_fb.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;The latte didn't really taste much better than the 10% Au Lait, but it was probably better to me because it was hot, and again better than SB and TCB's offerings, probably just based on the milk used.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S44Zn9wYSQI/AAAAAAAAAKo/Aau-c0Xvaw0/s1600-h/IMG_0924.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S44Zn9wYSQI/AAAAAAAAAKo/Aau-c0Xvaw0/s400/IMG_0924.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;I haven't tried enough food here to be able give any sort of solid verdict, but I have had the Oxtail Soup on my first visit (which was unfortunately without my camera, thank God for mobile phone cams), which turned out to be pretty good, if a little starchy.

The outlet we visited was in Tropicana City Mall, PJ.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;We had some of the monthly specials, as well as a couple of our common favourites. First off, the salmon moriawase, comprising a mix of select sashimi slices and lightly seared salmon meat. I found the sashimi here much fresher than Sushi Zanmai's offerings, and almost comparable to that of Kissaten's; excellent for its RM18 price tag.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4s9jI7_qdI/AAAAAAAAAJY/gSr46r7GxTQ/s1600-h/_MG_5628_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="278" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4s9jI7_qdI/AAAAAAAAAJY/gSr46r7GxTQ/s400/_MG_5628_fb.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;Another item from their specialty menu I tried was the Spicy Chicken Karage roll. I personally don't consider chicken sushi one of my top choices, but the "Spicy" prefix attracted me, and at RM8, I felt it couldn't hurt. Turns out it's a surprisingly delicious dish, so good that I ended up ordering a 2nd one! The chicken was still warm from the pan, succulent and slightly crispy, and it all blended will with the sesame seed-peppered roll and spicy mayonnaise.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: auto;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4s9zVkoILI/AAAAAAAAAJg/TlV5KIy7XuU/s1600-h/_MG_5634_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="270" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4s9zVkoILI/AAAAAAAAAJg/TlV5KIy7XuU/s400/_MG_5634_fb.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;Carol ordered her usual Chicken Katsu Don, and according to her it was also slightly better than the one she had at Zanmai; great news for chicken katsu-don lovers :)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4s-Ou8ybAI/AAAAAAAAAJo/PVyaHoYF8LM/s1600-h/_MG_5633_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="271" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4s-Ou8ybAI/AAAAAAAAAJo/PVyaHoYF8LM/s400/_MG_5633_fb.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;Apart from some sushi and various small dishes off the kaiten belt, I also tried the Chuka Ildari (Baby Octopus) and Chuka Wakame (Frozen Seaweed), which were both fresh and pretty tasty.

The miso ramen and gyoza turned out to be pretty standard stuff, taste and presentation-wise, a safe bet if you're not feeling particularly adventurous.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S3_8YbmqfMI/AAAAAAAAAIE/bT5IEYfGnNM/s1600-h/_MG_5304_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="213" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S3_8YbmqfMI/AAAAAAAAAIE/bT5IEYfGnNM/s320/_MG_5304_fb.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S3_8a77aarI/AAAAAAAAAIM/tQdHM3OUrzo/s1600-h/_MG_5295_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="213" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S3_8a77aarI/AAAAAAAAAIM/tQdHM3OUrzo/s320/_MG_5295_fb.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;I had the Salted Pork Belly Spaghetti, which I'd say is a simple but nice fusion dish. The saltiness of the meat slices blended well with the lightly flavoured pasta, garnished with seaweed strips and a poached egg sandwiched under the meat. The Wafu Mushroom Burger was served in a manner more like a sizzling steak dinner, and the meat was juicy and tender, albeit slightly saltier than the salted pork pasta (?!)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S3_-zN2YwpI/AAAAAAAAAIc/tgMInDuhwz4/s1600-h/_MG_5302_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S3_-zN2YwpI/AAAAAAAAAIc/tgMInDuhwz4/s320/_MG_5302_fb.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S3__IU8_VyI/AAAAAAAAAIk/_PC1lwYMXMw/s1600-h/_MG_5309_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S3__IU8_VyI/AAAAAAAAAIk/_PC1lwYMXMw/s320/_MG_5309_fb.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;The pork burger was really quite good, juicy and tender, topped with egg, salad, cheese and a variety of japanese sauces.

The coffee was smooth and not too bold, just the way I like it. My brother ordered a Banana Cheesecake for dessert. The texture was rather pasty, taste-wise it was pretty much like any good cheesecake, except that I couldn't make out any hint of banana! Give this a pass unless you're into plain ol' cheesecakes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4ADNnGDznI/AAAAAAAAAI0/hIpygkGVLuc/s1600-h/_MG_5293_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="214" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4ADNnGDznI/AAAAAAAAAI0/hIpygkGVLuc/s320/_MG_5293_fb.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4ADY2ofaqI/AAAAAAAAAI8/iiORBoPaL3M/s1600-h/_MG_5326_fb.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="214" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/S4ADY2ofaqI/AAAAAAAAAI8/iiORBoPaL3M/s320/_MG_5326_fb.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Service was good on the first visit, and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Dan was the one who introduced me to the world of "L" lenses, and after grabbing my first one on his advice, became infected with what Canon shooters have come to know as the "L-disease" (*chuckles*). I've made a wish-list of all the L-lenses I plan to get, which is, of course, based on the kind of shots I would be taking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSLHl56csI/AAAAAAAAAHY/HMCyLa1OUcc/s1600/_MG_5579.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSLHl56csI/AAAAAAAAAHY/HMCyLa1OUcc/s400/_MG_5579.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;The 7D was an unexpected upgrade for me, as I'd been planning to grab a full-frame DSLR early next year, but I figured that lenses would prove to be a better initial investment, and I should have my next lens before my trip to Africa. Though not a full-framer, I think I can safely say the 7D is no pushover (Read heaps of reviews to back it up). It'll be my main camera for a good long time :) I've sold my 500D since, but I definitely miss it. It was, after all, my first step into the world of photography. I hope its new owner takes good care of it and enjoys using it as much as I did :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSNQBbTosI/AAAAAAAAAHg/cPqiK2f7bHw/s1600/_MG_0143.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSNQBbTosI/AAAAAAAAAHg/cPqiK2f7bHw/s400/_MG_0143.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;500D - The Ol' Faithful&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSNquG5XpI/AAAAAAAAAHo/9rJUlyPZ_QA/s1600/500D_7D.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSNquG5XpI/AAAAAAAAAHo/9rJUlyPZ_QA/s400/500D_7D.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"&gt;7D (right) beside her older sister&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSPRCURkkI/AAAAAAAAAHw/y-plqecqHfs/s1600/_MG_0259.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSPRCURkkI/AAAAAAAAAHw/y-plqecqHfs/s400/_MG_0259.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"&gt;Sample shot (7D w/EF 85mm lens)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1193186299948244149-7169974450501632619?l=clayts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://clayts.blogspot.com/feeds/7169974450501632619/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1193186299948244149&amp;postID=7169974450501632619' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1193186299948244149/posts/default/7169974450501632619'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1193186299948244149/posts/default/7169974450501632619'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://clayts.blogspot.com/2009/11/rolling-with-semis.html' title='Rolling With The Semis'/><author><name>Clayts</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15451791135458670305</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SxSLHl56csI/AAAAAAAAAHY/HMCyLa1OUcc/s72-c/_MG_5579.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193186299948244149.post-6873162103680098153</id><published>2009-10-25T19:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-25T19:30:25.705-07:00</updated><title type='text'>85mm Pics</title><content type='html'>I finally got my hands on a Canon EF 85mm lens a few days back.

Stepping into the restaurant from a cold wintery evening, the warmth of the restaurant’s reception area was a welcome change. The receptionists were attending to the customer before us, but paused momentarily to assure us that they would tend to us soon. Within five minutes we’d been shown to our table, a makeshift booth seat using leather sofas with plush cushions. My first thought when I saw this was that I’d have to sit as straight as a ruler to avoid having my dinner two inches under my nose, but the height of the table was just right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The lower area of the restaurant was actually an open-air section, but during the winter it’s been draped with a large clear tent-like material to keep the wind out. The lower section was also divided into sections for groups of four or more, while tables for one or two were situated on the upper level. The bar was also situated upstairs. This made the group dining area look and feel more lounge-y, and less cramped to boot. The lighting was a little dim but bright enough for me to see my food. Even with the plastic drapes next to me, I did not feel stuffy in anyway, suggesting that the place had good ventilation even though it was filled with people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On to the important parts; the waiter was friendly and politely asked us if we’d like to have our dinner the traditional 3-course way or head straight to the mains. He did not write down our orders, but repeated it to us accurately before leaving, showing that he was attentive. I’d decided to go light this round due to a slightly moody stomach, so I had the Caesar salad, while Carol ordered the Hawaiian Burger. The food took slightly longer than expected to arrive, but that was because it was delivered all together and a couple of us had ordered steaks. The food was all hot when it arrived at the table (except for the salad, of course), so we were happy to be able to tuck in at the same time without having to wait for one of our meals to arrive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The salad was fresh, but lacked any significant taste that would’ve set it apart from the Caesar salads I’ve had at other places. The greens were crunchy, but the bacon cuts were either too tough or too soggy. The sauce was slightly watery and i could not seem to make out which part of the salad was egg. It was average at best.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SKDz9XZE_BI/AAAAAAAAADM/3jCiDF-oCe4/s1600-h/IMG_0957-2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SKDz9XZE_BI/AAAAAAAAADM/3jCiDF-oCe4/s320/IMG_0957-2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233451002581285906" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Hawaiian burger was much better, with a well-cooked patty that was slightly rare at the core, giving the meat some juice and flavour. The top was layered with a ring of pineapple sandwiched between two slices of tasty cheese. It was served with a side of chips and onion rings, which was neither too oily nor too dry. One of the dishes I’d recommend to anyone visiting this restaurant.&lt;br /&gt;I finished off with a flat white coffee that night, which was pretty average-tasting, on par with the one served at Starbucks. Nothing fancy here, just that it costs a tad more than a café’s brew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SKD0l1Hm7xI/AAAAAAAAADU/GX3N4U13to8/s1600-h/IMG_0959-2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SKD0l1Hm7xI/AAAAAAAAADU/GX3N4U13to8/s320/IMG_0959-2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233451697755844370" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SKD0nMcL3rI/AAAAAAAAADc/lj3Yt-K1eBU/s1600-h/IMG_0961.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SKD0nMcL3rI/AAAAAAAAADc/lj3Yt-K1eBU/s320/IMG_0961.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233451721196035762" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SKD0nRa4qBI/AAAAAAAAADk/60us3HeAcMw/s1600-h/IMG_0962-2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/SKD0nRa4qBI/AAAAAAAAADk/60us3HeAcMw/s320/IMG_0962-2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233451722532759570" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All in all, it’s a nice place, with good food and excellent service for its price.

What a way to start off. Oh well...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tagged by John Gan... apa la mate... haha...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love Quiz&lt;br /&gt;Game rules:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A． People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs and replace any question they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves. Tag 8 people. Those who are tagged cannot refuse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;B． These 8 people must state who they were tagged by. You cannot tag the person who tagged you. Continue this game by sending this to 8 other people. People who are tagged will be blessed and their wishes will come true in the future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.If your lover betrayed you, what will your reaction be?&lt;br /&gt;Betrayed as in cheated on me? I would have to call off the relationship, but I'd still   be alright with friendship, putting the initial awkwardness aside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.What will you do if you do not share the same feelings as the person who likes you?&lt;br /&gt;I'm usually oblivious to this sorta thing. Or maybe it's never happened to me. Haha...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.What will your dream wedding be like?&lt;br /&gt;A small-scale garden wedding, where I actually KNOW all the people who're attending. Of course, I want my family and all my close friends there first and foremost. Followed by a month-long honeymoon in Paris and possibly other travel destinations...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.Are you confused as to what lies ahead of you?&lt;br /&gt;Who isn't?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.What's your ideal lover like?&lt;br /&gt;Check my facebook pics =P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone else?&lt;br /&gt;I'm gonna have to go with the latter. Realise that most of the time you can fall in love with someone, but most of the time that someone won't love you in return?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.If the person you like does not accept you, would you continue to wait for them to change their feelings?&lt;br /&gt;There's a limit to that I guess.. But if it's crystal clear that person's said no, why continue? God has someone better in store...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?&lt;br /&gt;See answer above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9.Is there anything that has made you unhappy recently?&lt;br /&gt;Left it to God, so can't remember it now...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.What do you want most in life?&lt;br /&gt;What I REALLY want? Complete happiness within my family, and of course to remain healthy throughout life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11.Is being tagged fun?&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes... Like right now as I'm answering this I'm actually waiting for my download to finish. But sometimes it will take my time sommore, har....?! (Directed at John LOL)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12.If you find out that your best friend is going out with your boyfriend/girlfriend, how would you react?&lt;br /&gt;I guess I would gain an ex-best friend and an ex-girlfriend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13.Who is currently the most important person to you?&lt;br /&gt;I don't have a most important one, but I guess I do have a top-5 list, heh...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14.What kind of person do you think I am?&lt;br /&gt;John? Great guy, awesome friend, yumcha buddy, funny and caring towards close friends. Girls, what're you waiting for?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15.What is the most unforgettable thing/event in your life?&lt;br /&gt;Destroying an entire rack of clothes with a fire extinguisher at the age of 5...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16.If the person you secretly like cannot recognise you, what would you do/how would you react?&lt;br /&gt;I don't know.. never happened to me.. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17.Would you give your all in a relationship?&lt;br /&gt;Definitely. I always regard my relationship as serious and everlasting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18.If you fall in love with two persons simultaneously, who would you pick?&lt;br /&gt;How in the world does something like that happen? If it does, I'm obviously not ready to commit to a relationship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;19.What type of friends do you like?&lt;br /&gt;Those that like me for who I am, not what I've done. Other than that, it's always good to have a common point of interest...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20.If you played a prank on someone, and he/she fell for the trick, what would you do?&lt;br /&gt;Erm, have a good laugh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The people I'd love to tag either don't have blogs, or they've already been tagged, so I'm gonna have to end it here. Don't worry, I'm sure some other people will continue the chain.

Anyway, my sincerest apologies go out to my dear companions out there whom I've not kept in touch with all this time, especially Cat, Pei Yin jie, Phoebes, Sharon, John Gan, Kev, KC, Fei, Jia and Ah Teng. Oh, and the rest of you as well. *Sheepish grin*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, in a nutshell (and as some of you already know), I've been really busy these past few months with stuff, mainly uni work. Also, I've been going through some shifts in church ministry here, so that took up part of my time as well (though I enjoy every moment of it). Oh, and not to mention my endeavours to survive living with "interesting" housemates... If any of you really wanna know what's been happening with me in detail, do drop me a text or gimme a call and I'd be glad to chat (If you haven't already guessed why I'm not elaborating further, try to remember that I DON'T condone blogging about everything that happens in my life; I'm doing this just to (hopefully) get things rolling again). For those who tried to reach me on MSN, most of you would have found that there was no reply (cos I wasn't there) or had someone else reply on my behalf - a case of bad timing, really... my bad..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm about to face my next wave of exams over the next couple of weeks, but I'll try to be regular again with my posts. Hope all of you who read this have been and still are doing well back home.

Not only did He create the universe and everything that lives today, He pays attention to the most minute of details when it comes to us. He knows each and every one of us down to our very depths, even the sicknesses and pains that inflict us. On top of that, He &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;wants to&lt;/span&gt; and will heal those that need that healing, should we ask Him and believe. I'm not just talking about the explicitly visible, but what stabs at our innermost selves. Not just cancers and life-threatening injuries, but even the deepest of sorrows and emotional scars. I'd just like to share this song that touched me the first time I heard it last year, and still continues to touch me today. The song was finally released today in recorded form, that's why I'd love for anyone with a few minutes to just listen to this if you need some form of healing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The song is titled "Healer" by Planetshakers. I've added it to my imeem playlist on the right. I pray that you'll be as blessed by it as I was.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1193186299948244149-2066790448869918069?l=clayts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://clayts.blogspot.com/feeds/2066790448869918069/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1193186299948244149&amp;postID=2066790448869918069' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1193186299948244149/posts/default/2066790448869918069'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1193186299948244149/posts/default/2066790448869918069'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://clayts.blogspot.com/2007/06/healer.html' title='Healer'/><author><name>Clayts</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15451791135458670305</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193186299948244149.post-167576684130125842</id><published>2007-05-28T19:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-05-28T19:31:11.771-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Never Stop</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Forward ho, let us walk&lt;br /&gt;Our treasures on our backs&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_0_PCvUnXICk/RluP4PFMtjI/AAAAAAAAAA0/8r-X6A38nf0/s1600-h/ktanaka_sideBanner+23-05-07.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px;
