ALEXIS BSC

ALEXIS BSC
[ah-lek-sis BSC]
Halal; serves alcohol

My family and I have always been fans of Alexis, ever since it opened many years ago! We decided to go over there for my mom's birthday dinner and I'm pleased to say that Alexis still hasn't failed me!

Here's the entrance to the restaurant! Pretty quaint. You can already see from the outside that the restaurant has nice interior design (at least to me), and it kind of draws you in.

View from my seat. The restaurant is fairly big. There's a lot of room, especially for private functions. There's a bar area at the back too; assuming it's for the live performances they tend to have on weekends. They have a lot of decorative elements! The white shelves and cute light bulbs; kind of gives the place a very modern edge. And I kind of like how they exposed the ceiling; it goes well with everything.

This was the private space that my family and I sat nearby to. This space is for functions like birthdays and etc; you can make reservations for big pax and book this space!

Here's are the desserts! By this time, I was already eyeing the pavlova! Looks so yummy!

Here's a peek into the menu. Food is a tad pricey but I can't complain cause most of the food are delicious! Haha. This restaurant is obviously a special-occasion type of place.

I ordered the Pappardelle with meatballs (RM38) and a pot of hot mango tea. It was VERY filling; I felt bad that I couldn't finish everything! But I forced myself to engulf all the meatballs. Incredible portion for you big eaters out there! The mango tea; nothing to complain about. They provide honey for a healthier alternative to sugar, if you're interested! :)

As for dessert, we ordered a slice of pavlova (mixed berries meringue cake) and a slice of this very rich chocolate cake. I like the pavlova more because personally, refreshing cakes are the BEST. But the chocolate cake was also pretty delicious though it's quite a mouthful! For you chocolate lovers, this is the cake for you! It's not too sweet either so you won't feel sick of the taste while eating it.


Overall, our experience in Alexis was good. The service was great, ambiance was pretty nice to; I would say a nice place for you to dress up for dinner because people who eat there seem very snazzy and stylish (it IS Bangsar after all), and the food was satisfying! I especially loved the desserts! They were definitely the highlights of the night!

WONDERMAMA

WONDERMAMA
[wuhn-der mama]
Halal

I always wanted to pay a visit to Wondermama (solely because the name is so cute), and I finally had the chance to! Went with my friend from Uni! I was pleased by how pretty the restaurant was. They had a Nyonya-esque style to the spaces, but with a touch of Wondermama-ness (I don't know how else to briefly explain it haha).

So the entrance looks like this. Already so charming! You can choose to sit outside, if you'd like to smoke, or inside where there's air-conditioning.

View from my seat. Look at those adorable floor tiles! Gives you the Malaccan-Penang vibe. The lamps are also made by woks I believe! Thumbs up for upcycling! The outside looks relatively cosy too, and natural lighting plays a huge roll in this restaurant. Thumbs up for those roof louvres!

My Uni friend ordered the prawn mee. THE PORTION WAS MASSIVE! You literally pay for portion in this restaurant. I LIKE! 

I ordered the Seafood Spaghetti. It tasted very Chinesey. I assume it was a fusion of Italian with Chinese cuisine. Not bad! And once again, HUGE PORTION. 

On the left is the Green Tea Smoothie, which was really good and refreshing. LOVED IT!
And on the right, a Caffe Latte, which was also pretty good. Enjoyed it and it was very smooth to drink.



DETAILS :

My camera didn't capture it very well but on the left, you can see very cool looking light fixtures - wire made to spiral around the light bulbs. And on the right, I just love the display of bowls! Adds a nice pop of colour to the corner! Sweet!!

Would definitely re-visit this restaurant because the food portion was awesome and the environment was great! Love to be able to soak in all the wonderful ideas and designs of the interior of the restaurant! :)
