La Bodega @ Pavilion KL

Jenn & I enjoy our breakfast.. A LOT! Frankly, I was not a morning person in the past (pre-Jenn days). Being a party animal, I could sleep until the sun ray literally shone on my butt and then it was already time for lunch (or was it brunch?). Jenn was also a regular clubber during her college days but hey, we were very young back then and we could afford to stay up late until wee hours the next day. When she completed her degree and obtained her CLP, she stopped going out and instead focusing on her career. At the same time, she worked her magic again and made me sleep earlier (and went out clubbing lesser)... woman! Aren't they smart?

Breakfast was one of our favourite things to enjoy together and La Bodega is one of her favourite brekkie places. Given the opportunity, she would drag me to Bangsar Telawi area while most of us are still in dreamland. I'm not complaining though because I have to admit that the breakfast was awesome. After a while, I would wake up automatically at 7am.. latest by 8am! And now I have Sher Ryn as my alarm clock as she would wake me up at 7am to prepare her milk.

Back to the topic - I felt like a hungry tiger after my morning swimming session at The Westin. We didn't really feel like eating hotel's breakfast so we just crossed Jalan Bukit Bintang to Pavilion KL. It was quite early in the morning and therefore not many people.

English Breakfast @ RM27 - Jenn's choice of 2 poached farm fresh eggs together with chicken sausage and sauteed mushroom.

Served with a slice of homemade toast, fresh orange juice and a cup of steaming hot cappucino... her breakfast just could not get any better than this.

I had to say that the egg was poached perfectly :) as Jenn's face was brimming with delight!

My order of Omelette with sauteed mushroom & smoked chicken ham (RM15) was equally delicious. The mushroom and chicken ham were wrapped inside the omelette and as I used knife to cut open the egg, the aroma was too good for me to resist.

Leo's verdict - After so many years, La Bodega still maintain their food's standard. I have yet to come here for dinner which Jenn claimed was very lively and happening. Oh well! Maybe I'd wait until the children to get older and manageable :) for the meantime, breakfast is enough to keep me coming back again and again!

Breakfast at La Bodega @ Pavilion KL

Having breakfast in a hotel is always a costly affair, unless they throw in free breakfast while you are staying with the hotel. As I got a cheap rate for staying in The Westin, no free breakfast :( and since Jenn & I already had lunch at the Living Room yesterday, both of us decided not to dine in for the second time. Instead, we walked across the street to this place, The Pavilion KL. The whole place looked deserted in the morning, as most outlets had not opened for business... YET!

Walking further in and we'd come to one of Jenn's favourite places for breakfast, La Bodega!

Joining us were her sister, Erynn and her husband, Erick... not to forget Jenn's favourite niece, Jenning!!! Look how happy the father and daughter was :)

I took some time to take some pictures of the interiors... it was still early so we were the only diners sitting inside.

The bar... I'd forgotten on how long that I have not gone out to have a night out with my friends for drinks...

Some of the old pictures hanging on the wall.

I'm feeling hungry and that's why I opted for their English Breakfast @ RM27. For this price, I got 2 scrambled eggs, chicken sausages, hash browns, slice of homemade toast, fresh fruit juice (I asked for orange juice) & a cup of latte in the end... yummy!!! I managed to finish all in record time, yay!!!

Jenn had Omelettes (3 fresh farm eggs) @ RM7, sauteed mushrooms @ RM4, smoked chicken ham @ RM4 and homemade wholemeal toast @ RM5

Leo's verdict - breakfast at La Bodega has always been a satisfying experience for us. As high as the prices seem to be, it actually cost us half of what I had in The Westin itself. My stomach was very full by the time I finished... hahahah!!!
