Lunch is one big, elaborate meal nowadays and a very social event. After all, Malaysian life revolves around meals isn't it?

Got a great opportunity to eat something not so healthy this weekend as my friends came to KL from far-off places. Decided to try Canton-i for the first time ever. We went to one of its ubiquitous branch at 1-utama and boy, it was packed!

The ambience is quite fun. It's supposed to be Cantonese cuisine but I didn't find anything oriental about the interior design. Nothing to complain about though..I love the patterns on the walls, dividers and windows while the lamps dangling down merrily are quite captivating.

We've gotten ourselves the window seats, facing pretty green shrubs and in the process, received a healthy dose of 'filtered' sunshine. The service was brisk and friendly despite the heavy lunchtime crowd.

For the record, I need to say this first. I loved my drink. It's an Amaranth-flower infusion and the most special thing ever. Have you ever taken a tea with blooming flower in it? Go try it. Absolutely endearing. I wished I recorded the 'event' on video.

Apparently, the dried flower will bloom admist the tea leaves as the bunch of petals absorb the hot water. So ta...daaa:
Drinking infusion from a whole plant? Not really but the illusion was pretty real though. So for green tea lovers out there, do try this drink. Amazing stuff.
