How Do You Like Your Coffee?

I think this was Cafe Latte..
Before Starbucks and all the other fancy coffee shops became famous, coffee to me were just Kopi 0, Kopi or Nescafe. Then few years later, White Coffee became famous. Then now, being seen at Starbucks is the craze and you are assaulted with all these fancy choices of coffee.  

Ever wonder what's the difference between Espresso, Cappuccino, Cafe au Lait, Cafe Latte and Machiatto?

1. Cafe Au Lait

It is simply 50% brewed coffee and 50% warmed milk. You might get a little foam on top, but its actually thinning the strong coffee with a generous amount of warm, creamy milk.

2. Latte

It is espresso + steamed milk. Lattés are made with a shot (or three) of espresso poured into the bottom of a mug and topped with steamed milk and a thin layer of foam. Some people prefer to add the espresso last so it that sinks through the milk and foam instead, but the idea is the same.

3. Cappuccino

Espresso + lots of FOAM milk + little bit of milk. This gives you a much stronger coffee flavor. Some people say the key to a good cappuccino is really excellent foam.



4. Machiotto

If you like really intense coffee flavor, try one of these! It's simply a shot of espresso topped with a little foam - no milk! 

5. Espresso

Flavourful coffee beverage brewed by forcing very hot, but not boiling, water under high pressure through coffee that has been ground to a consistency between extremely fine and powder. 

Its amazing how when you change the ratio of milk (foam, steamed) and coffee, it became a different type of drink. I find it quite complicated and most of these fancy coffees are either too strong or too weak, too bitter or creamy. 


Oh well, i'm just happy with my Nescafe 3 in 1. Tear, pour, add hot water - viola!

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata. Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu. Biasanya gegadis newbie ni macam cendawan. Muncul sekejap di kala azam baru masih utuh yakni di awal tahun atau selepas perayaan di mana memasing nak kurus.  Tunggulah 2 bulan kemudian langsung tak nampak batang hidung ataupun buttcheeks. Eh? Sebenarnya salah satu benda Cik Panda nak cerita pasal butt cheeks. Butt cheeks are absolutely NO NO except at the pool or beach when you are in your swimsuit.  Cik Panda tak jealous la uols sebab Cik Panda tak hingin pun nak ada bontot yang jelly welly tu. ZAssssss So hari tu ada sorang minah ni baru 1st time iols nampak kat gym, tengah workout dengan bopren dia la gitu. Pakai sports bra je dengan really short shorts yang menampakkan ...

Kak PONTI!

Letak gamba hantu comel. Iols dah taubat Kawan-kawan yang ada follow CPPS di Instagram tau la perangai iols yang suka letak gambar hantu kat IG story kan? Kadang-kadang iols post kat Whatsapp Story. Kenapa? Saja. Suka-suka. hehe. Seronok tengok reaksi kawan-kawan dan disebabkan tu, ramai manusia yang silent reader/stalker, SO OUT OF THE BLUE, text iols. Buat macam tu barulah they alls timbul kan. Hampeh punya kawan. Tapi jangan risau. Lepas ni weols tak buat dah.  Wakakka. Dah insaf uols. Nak dijadikan cerita, dekat 2 tahun dah CPPS dengan Anne berpindah ke kawasan kediaman baru ni. Dalam 2 tahun ni, memang aman damai la kan kat situ. Privacy, aman tak bising, penduduknya pula jenis tak buat bising. Memang bukan spesis makcik bawang la.  Amannya sampai terserempak dengan orang dalam lif ketika peak hours sahaja.  Ketika berpindah masuk pun, rumah CPPS tu memberikan satu energy yang baik. Maksudnya takde la rasa seram-seram, tak sedap hati gitu ka...

Harmony Valley Retreat Di Janda Baik: Weekend Getaway Yang Mendamaikan

Harmony Valley Retreat Di Janda Baik: Weekend Getaway In Lush Misty Mountain This staycation was what, late last year? Somewhere in November I think, during Deepavali long weekend. Vacation yilek, staycation pun jadilah sis.  Personally, I find that staycation is much more relaxing because you don't have to go through the hassle of planning your itinerary. Most of all, you don't have to go through the stress of traveling. Urghhh, few hours to & fro airport, waiting at the airport, the stress and anxiety of going through immigration and such. Just thinking about it makes me tired. #sisaging So anyway, back to Harmony Valley Retreat. You know la, sis ni suka tempat yang aman, back to nature, nyaman sejuk-sejuk. Untuk lari daripada hiruk pikuk kota metropolitan. And Harmony Valley Retreat is just the perfect place to rejuvenate, recharge & relax. Admittedly, the thing that cemented my decision was this review from a customer "So serene & you can hea...

Sedangkan pantai pun berubah, inikan pula hati manusia.  Gituuuuu. Cik Bear, kawan kepada Cik Meow cakap "Cik Panda tu memang lah cantik, ada body semua tapi tu lah semua lelaki nak kat dia sebab body dia. ha tu lah buat badan lagi."
