What is Cruffin ?
A cruffin is a hybrid of a croissant and a muffin. The appearance look like a nicely decorated muffin, but the texture is croissant-like, with buttery, flaky pastry. The first known Cruffin to be created in Melbourne, Australia in 2013.
You can find cruffin now in Johor Bahru!!!!!!
Seven Oak Bakery Cafe opened their new outlet in the newest shopping mall in Johor Bahru- Mid Valley SouthKey.
The cafe proudly introduced the cruffin, who claims to be the 1st bakery shop who bring the cruffin to Johor.
There are up to 16 flavours. Some flavours are well known by local, such as durian and salted egg cruffin.
What you need to know about Cruffin ! - High calories.
1-2 cruffins can definitely satisfy your stomach for a teatime or breakfast. Even the size look just like muffin size, you feel the satisfaction and fullness after eating.
- Sweetness
My first impression to cruffin will be, high sweetness dessert, as the outer layer of cruffin is coated with sugar. However, as I eat the cruffin, the sweetness is not overload, but with acceptable level.
- It is not a cake.
Don't expect something soft texture, like cake. It is more like a croissant , with muffin shape.

Did you eat walnut?
Walnut is commonly use as ingredient of bakery and nut snack. There are a lot healthy benefits of eating walnut.

Walnuts are made up of 65% fat, 15% of protein and low in carbs .Walnuts are rich in heart-healthy fats and high in antioxidants.
The regular consumption of walnuts has been shown to have following benefit: - Walnuts help you sleep

Vitamin E and flavanoids in walnuts helping destroy harmful free radical chemicals that cause dementia.

- Walnuts Keep You Skinny
Walnut is one of the power snack, with low-carb, good for those who plan to slim down. Walnut is great to eat during break time between your main meals of a day.
What I like about HKV walnut : Resealable pack -- It is convenience to keep after open.
Walnut with shell-- In normal supermarket, It's really difficult to find the walnut, together with shell. The walnut keep their best natural taste when it taken out from shell. Walnuts can quickly turn rancid if not stored properly.
Tips: Don't throw the walnut shell. Walnut shell can have other usage, such as cleaning and polishing.
Natural, with no additional flavouring-- Walnut is best to eat with no additional flavouring, which you obtain the most benefit if you eat raw. Fresh walnuts will smell nutty and have a nutty taste.

The holy month of Ramadan started from this week, which many Muslims began fasting during the day.
Breaking fast with a big feast is something important for them.
Came upon with few choices of Ramadan buffet dinner in town, Brick Family Restaurant is one of it.
What is Brick Family Restaurant?
The restaurant is under the Legoland Hotel, with the highlight of Lego-deco theme buffet.
As I stepped into the restaurant, I can feel the mix feeling of coming to a Lego playground and restaurant.
With the colourful plate, Lego Characters around the restaurant, the crayon on the table, and the specially design table cloth, which you can use the crayon to draw and colour.
The International buffet serves wide variety of cuisine, both oriental and western cuisine.
It's one of the great experience you can have to have dinner, with the local or foreigner, and not worry about the choice of cuisine, as the buffet serves the need for both.
Not forget the traditional break fast dates- Kurma are available in the buffet too.
Drink Section
Not limit to indoor, there is a outdoor section for barbeque, which the chef grill and cook the food on the spot.
Besides the well known satay, sausage and chicken wing, there is roasted whole lamb too.
Personally, I like the roasted chicken a lot, with juicy and tender texture.
Grilled section
Roasted chicken
There a lots of choices for the main dish, with different way of cooking and the use of spice.
For this section, I like the stir fried chicken, which serves in a small bowl.
Besides the chicken, there are black pepper crab, sea prawn, spicy beef, rendang chicken, hyderabad lamb, salmon, etc.
