Penang- Freezer Natural Scene

2009-08-02T15:27:00.002+08:00

When i opened my freezer cover =.= 1st word coming out from my lips was "wtf". Obviously, i do not know what does it looks like, just feels quite annoying blocking the freezer entrance :p up for your imagination since it just happened naturally in my freezer.

Penang- Putu Mayam

2009-08-01T19:22:00.003+08:00

Last night, my dinner was a packet of mix rice, self boiled 2 eggs, 1 apple and 1 packet of putu mayam. My food feast started at 8.30pm until 12.00am. It has been a long time i have not been eating in such a big portion, no longer that young already. I roughly remember my last time having putu mayam was around 6-8 years ago. Missing it deeply!

Superb fresh on the spot made putu mayam + coconut shreds + grinded dark sugar

RM1.20 for 2 pieces of Putu piring, i thgouth it will be very thin for a piece (KL size), never know in penang it was so thick, accidentally i bought 4 pieces. It was so cheap, RM 2.40 only!

smooth grinded tiny dark sugar + fresh coconut shreds

closer look
Putu piring + grinded tiny dark sugar + fresh coconut shreds = AWESOMENESS!

Penang- Fruitful Breakfast

2009-07-24T21:33:00.002+08:00

It was a weekday morning, i was having breakfast with my colleagues at Lean Gaik shop again. After ordering our food, suddenly a man came by selling currypuff. Why he came AFTER i made my order! The puffs were extremely tempting, my lips immediately turn dry and i kept sticking my tongue out licking it, drooling after seeing it. OK FINE! "Tauke, give me two puffs"

There you go~ my dearly sweetie sweetie "temptation puffs". They were still warm and fresh. The crispiness can be easily detected by sight.

NGaumm, yummy! The filling has potato, spices, egg. Worth for the money i paid, it only cost RM 1.50 each!

Here came our breakfast set. What do you call this, i think is American breakfast.

Next was bread toast with strawberry jam and kaya.

Thanks to the crazy tasty puff, my friend and i were in deep shiX, our stomach were over limit, nearly burst. It was really a FRUITFUL breakfast we had, no regrets!

Location: Lean Gaik shop (at Chai Leng area)

Penang- Self Cooked Egg Wrap Chicken

2009-07-19T22:18:00.007+08:00

Is Sunday, woke up late, miss my 油炸鬼 and 豆浆水session i had planned before i slept yesterday! What a day, nothing much to do, no movies to go for, still having phobia from the terrible and horrible harry potter movie i watched on Saturday. So, i online since i wake up until dinner time. The only thing i can think of to kill my time is to cook myself a meal.
Marinated chicken breast meat with 排骨王 sauce + butter.

After few hours, the marinated meat was given a mild fry.

Rice prepared but over estimated for 1 person. haha!

Meat was well cooked.

Egg frying session. Looks like a capati.

Weeee~ success! Golden yellowish crispy fried egg.

Stuffed the chicken meat into the "capati" egg wrapper.

Tada~!! My self made Egg Wrap Chicken dinner. Is sort of too simple, but just wanted to share with you guys n girls my own happiness and satisfaction.

Consider a piece of 成就感 during this Penang stay so far. Is tough to cook with limited accessories in the kitchen :(

Penang- Curry Mee and Pork Ribs Rice (排骨王饭）

2009-07-18T16:52:00.005+08:00

Lunch at Chai Leng area, Penang.

Tender and juicy pork ribs meat + crispy fried egg = happy lunch!

Penang- Yam rice for lunch

2009-07-16T00:20:00.002+08:00

Lunch time! Where to eat? Of course is near apollo area. WHY? because is near to working place -.-" eat faster back to work faster. That's life. lol.. HELL NO, besides tat reason, this shop really selling delicious yam rice + pepper soup + pork ingredient.

Fresh orange juice as my starter :)

Look at the spicy chili paste, is so thick!

Yam rice. See it also drooling, smell it you will never forget it, taste it you will fall in love with it.

Pepper soup with juicy pork meat + pork internal organs. yummy...

No joke, is a finger licking satisfied lunch.

Penang- Dinner near apollo area

2009-07-14T23:42:00.003+08:00

In a hawker center, there was this stall hiding among numerous of other stalls. I saw alot of peoples ordering it, when i went to glance through the ingredient, nothing much special, so i was wondering, in the end i gave it a try.

Deng Deng Deng. Quite a common mee with chicken slices, char siew and minced meat. Is quite tasty, i still cant figure it out why so many people eating it. Really do not know how to explain the feel of eating it, give it a try if you are here in Penang. You won't regret.

Brunch in Penang

2009-07-12T16:27:00.005+08:00

Business Trip in Penang

2009-07-11T23:13:00.010+08:00

Here are some random photos during my business trip at outstation :)

View from my apartment

Penang here i come again!!

Konlow Mee near a market (my dinner 1/2)

Loh Mee near a market (my dinner 2/2). Muahaha, i ate both for my dinner.

Bento box for my another dinner. Wth, come so far from kl but eat at sushi king. LoL.

Roller skating with my colleagues at Queensbay mall. Good experience! 1st time skating on solid ground instead of ice.

Terriyaki Chicken + taufu + tauke at Feringgi for dinner after a great skating session.

This was really a "FANTASTIC" dinner hawker at Chai Leng area.

These damn dishes cost us RM14++.
Service quality= 2/10
Vinegar pork leg= 1/10 (NO SOUR TASTE OF VINEGAR AT ALL + MEAT NOT SOFT ENOUGH)
Overall, these dishes still get a 10/10 which is call "tasteless". My advice is, there are still alot of improvement space for your dishes. all the best!
Somehow, from this stall, i was able to see the determination of few little boys handling the business by themselves. Their passion and teamwork was great. This is the ONLY portion i salute them.

Great shop, luckily we passed by during our search for our brunch at Chai Leng area again.

Breakfast set 1

Breakfast set 2

Hokkien Dry Mee. This shop still serve other dishes, i will certainly pay another visit to this shop again.

July Life

2009-07-10T00:04:00.002+08:00

What has happened to my Day 3 in Penang? LoL, i guess it has been swallowed by my tight working schedule. Life was rafting here and there since 25th of June, no longer living comfortably with such a low amount of income. Big spender? No, i am not! i am just saving money :(
Doesn't matter, life still goes on, most important, i still doing what i am interest with and with my great team of colleagues. Something came across my mind after being so sick of this working society, now i understand one thing, work for your interest instead of work for money.(no money also cannot!)
Is quite enjoyable traveling around while working. Experiencing long HOURS of drive, different cultures, different attitudes of human. So far so good although everything still not yet settle down. Is quite sad though when got the news that 2 colleagues resigned, wondering how many going to join the resign trend in the coming months. Better cross my fingers for that.
Wish me luck peoples for the July life and so on and so forth, great great great challenges ahead~ weee~ work and learn forever~ (truly a sick brainwashed workaholic sample) :)
Blog update will still goes on whenever i am free.
Current location: Penang

Penang Trip Day 2

2009-05-10T21:35:00.007+08:00

Day 2:

We slept late the night before, so we guys decided not to set any alarm until we woke up by ourselves. In the end, we got our morning call from the girls next door. Once everyone has prepared, we start our Penang journey again~

Breakfast at "wong chau jun" sour and spicy fish head mee hoon shop. My colleague introduced this location to us. Really thanks to her, we found great foods here.

Own made Taufu. It was really really having a very unique taste, something very different from normal taufu which can be purchase in any supermarket. The taste was like "undescribable", go try it out and you will know what i mean.

What a TINY LITTLE plate of fresh and well cooked green vegetables for SEVEN young growing stage youngsters.

Famous Sour and Spicy Mee Hoon with sliced fish meats.

Hor Fun (KL folks called it as Kuey Teow) with slices of fish again. Honestly, this dish was even much more delicious than the above Sour and Spicy Mee Hoon. You can feel the sense of fish meat and hor fun in every bites.

Fried prawn in salad sauce. Tasty and fresh mouth swimming prawn! This dish wasn't a big portion but it was able to flame up your desire for ordering the 2nd dish of it. The price for this dish was reasonable to fulfil the temptation.

Our lunch started after we purchased our cable car tickets at Bukit Bendera. My lunch started with a thirst quenching fountain. Nice ice kacang with a scoop of ice cream near a stall below kek lok si temple.

Fried mangkuang with tiny pieces of scramble eggs.

Another famous Asam Laksa near kek lok si temple. Can you see the ingredient? The tauke was so generous in fulfilling the customers' desire while earning a living! Try comparing this with KL asam laksa stalls (mostly), it was like the sky and the ground.

I believe these freaking gigantic tortoises were elder than me and you. They were real HUGE!
View in Kek Lok Si temple.

Shhhh.. silent please..

Famous Mochi/ Muar Chee stall near Kek Lok Si temple.

Reasonable price with good quality of peanuts "sand".

Dinner session at Batu Feringgi. Fried prawn with black pepper sauce!

Ikan bakar!!
Fried squid in sweet and spicy sauce!

Fried oyster with egg!

Chicken satay (breast meat)

Basically ALL the dishes at Batu Feringgi were perfect! It was a fruitful dinner! Penang i love you!

Day 3 will be continued soon. Stay tune.

Dim Sum breakfast at a shop named "超X" at mainland. When i remember the name i will edit it again.
Chinese temple, 斗母宫 visit.

There was a lot of great rock sculptures having mostly the dragon design and god design.

Sort of look out point at the mainland where the opposite scenery is Penang Island!

Famous Cendol
Famous Asam Laksa

2009-05-05T13:11:00.002+08:00

My dear friends,

I had a relaxing weekend last week, finally a short break for myself to escape from the pressure cooker. Feeling so great and refresh after a trip for 3 days 2 nights. Throughout this trip i saw a lot of different cultures, attitude of locals, lifestyles and most fascinating were the food varieties. I have been eating non stop all along the places. Where i have been? Hang on with my updates. More photos and further story will be posted once i free myself out from work again for 1 or 2 days since all the photos are still siting inside my camera. I have no time to transfer yet :(

Best Regards and love

GREAT weekend

2008-11-18T23:49:00.003+08:00

This was one of my weekend where i spent my time at ZEN in mid valley while my friends were watching their movie. The place was so comfortable and the atmosphere was just nice for people like me to have a own space to deal with my stuff.
My lovely "Organic English Breakfast Tea" accompanied me for hours. Honestly, the tea taste nice without any sugar added in.
I love this place!

Busy daySS

2008-11-10T23:37:00.002+08:00

It has been awhile since my last update >.<
I am trying to update asap by this weekend.
Robot life really like a routine everyday!
Sorry my dear readers. ^^

Fullhouse at 牛车水

2008-10-31T22:22:00.002+08:00

It was the last day for us to hang out together since our oversea colleagues will be going back after the training ends. It was a rainy day, the rain continuous drizzling for hours and hours. The childhood song has no effect on it. A lot of venues we thought of were closed due to the rain. In the end, we went to Fullhouse which was a lifestyle store co cafe.
Simple yet attractive entrance~

*Mehhzzzzzz* 2 little sheep were at the staircase welcoming our present.

Left view of the upstairs' store.

Middle view of the upstairs' store.

Right view of the upstairs' store.

1 fierce little puppy and 4 little poor teddies.
Puppy: Grrrrr, Woooofffff!
Teddies: *sobs* *trembling*

(=.= Sorry for the dumb imagination i had created)

Time for the main topic~ FOOD~
Carbonara Spaghetti with beef bacon and mushroom with rich cream.
Gamberi Spaghetti with tiger prawn, garlic and chili and olive oil.
The Fullhouse Club Sandwich with grilled chicken, crisp bacon, turkey ham and cheese.
Chicken Bolognese Spaghetti with Bolognese meat sauce.
Pan Sear Doly Fish with siew pak choy, sauteed mushroom & lemon grass cream.
Wok Sear Chicken Chop served with mashed potato & daily vegetable.
Nasi Lemak with rendang chicken.

*honk* *honk* time to say bye bye to Fullhouse.

The atmosphere was absolutely comfortable and romantic for couples. At the same time, the food was well cooked and presenting a unique aromatic taste and smell. Most important, the price of the food/ beverages are affortable. But for the selling items, kinda over priced. Peoples with shopaholic attitude~ be careful of your wallet/purse~

Pastamania

2008-10-23T22:02:00.003+08:00

Boston Baru Klang

2008-10-19T01:06:00.003+08:00

~~Gorgeous food at Boston Baru coming up!~~
~~Will post it on Sunday, today is too late, i just came back from wedding dinner.~~

It was Friday again, time to hang out and relax! My colleague and I went to Restaurant Boston Baru in Klang town to have our seafood dinner. The location of the restaurant is just opposite Kamdar building.
The boss and the staffs were all very polite and friendly. The service was great! (Indeed is much better than some of those modern restaurant, i am mainly referring to a Korean cuisine restaurant at AEON in my previous post *here*. Do not misunderstand, Daorae is awesome!)

Our lovely dishes were as following:
Mandarin: 红烧鱼片
English: Stewed Fish Fillet
Mandarin: 清蒸拉拉
English: Steamed Clam
Mandarin: 署粉面
English: "Sticky" Mee (Let me know the name of it if you know it)
Mandarin: 奶油赖尿虾
English: Butter "Urine" ShrimpMandarin: 炸章鱼
English: Deep Fried Octopus

All the savory dishes were crazily great. *drooling* *drooling* *drooling*~
The total bill was even more acceptable and reasonable! It was only RM 82 (5 dishes + 5 plate of rice + 1 pot of Crysanthanum tea)

Pasta Zanmai, Bowling, Laundry!

2008-10-11T23:50:00.005+08:00

It was a lovely Friday, every working robots love Friday! It was a day where robots were granted with late night sleep or long period rest for the following few days. So, my colleagues and i planned to have a night outing after work. During our training, we had colleagues from oversea such as Philippines, Vietnam, China and Vietnam, so we wanted to bring them for experiencing our local night life. First of all, we went to Pasta Zanmai located at 1Utama shopping center. It was a worth going japanese casual pasta restaurant.
This is my Hamburg to Kinoko no Meat Sauce! It was really fantastic, the beef was so juicy and tender. Nevertheless, the Japanese mushroom meat sauce was awesome. Really no point looking at my words, you really need to try it by your own. I never regret for having such enjoyable dinner!
This is my friend's Chicken Katsu no Meat Sauce.
There were still others, but i only managed to capture these 2 dishes due to my absent to ATM machine when their dishes came. I missed around 8 types of them!!!
I promised myself that i will visit Pasta Zanmai more often to try on other tempting dishes!
Next event was bowling session. It has been a long time for me to join 11, yes, ELEVEN peoples playing bowling together. We yell and scream with joy even we got 8 pins down during the games. If anyone of us got a spare or strike, it was like a big party mood. All of us had a great moment!
It was ONLY 10pm+ after our bowling session, the night was still SO young! So, we decided to go to Laundry at The Curve to have a cup of tea. Our tea session ended up with all kinds of alcoholic drinks and accompanied by great music. Guess what i have ordered? "ANS: ALICE IN WONDERLAND". We had our "zero five" and "bunny bunny" games in Laundry. Those drinking and gaming moments were absolutely memorable. Honestly, i love it!

Ole Ole Bali

2008-10-04T16:07:00.005+08:00

On the same day after my Jogoya lunch trip, i went to Ole Ole Bali at Mont Kiara for my dinner. It was a farewell dinner for Xiao Yao since she is going to pursuit her PHD soon.

Overall the dishes and beverages were unique and great.

Jogoya Visit

2008-10-04T13:53:00.004+08:00

This was my following buffet strike. Kelvin and I had planned to go for Japanese buffet since our college days, yet the plan delayed till this day! Finally, we planned to go to Jogoya at Starhill for our Japanese buffet. It was the first day of Hari Raya Puasa, our journey began from Kelana Jaya LRT station, KL was so quiet and you can hardly see big crowd walking on the street. On the same day, it was our photo shooting session all the way from Kelana Jaya LRT station to Jogoya. Kelvin was playing with his beloved new gadget ( Canon EOS 1000d) and I was still on with my 3 years old Canon Power Shot A530. Alright, Jogoya journey begins.We reach Jogoya before 11.30am, we thought we were the first customers, we were wrong~ there were a few families in front of us. The price for lunch buffet was RM78++ per person, end up it will be around RM 90 after every tax.
For my beloved readers information:
Lunch- RM 78++
Late Lunch- RM 68++
Dinner- RM 88++
Supper- RM 78++
These were part of our dishes, i didn't post ALL the food photos or it will consume alot of my time. Some photos did not have description due to my forgetfulness of names, the wide varieties of food and most importantly that I had ONLY 2 hours for the buffet! (to be honest, 2 hours are too SHORT for taking food, eating food and photo shooting)
(anyone can tell me the name of the above dish?)
Fresh oyster!
Raw fishes and sushi!
Black and white egg, pumpkin, prawn and baby lobster meat.
Ginseng soup! This was real nice!
Scallop siu mai & Prawn chu cheong fan!
Baby scallop!
Garlic and cheese toast of seafoods!
Fresh and juicy fish!
Seafood soup!
Caught a fresh prawn swimming in the soup!
Prawn and Salmon!

Jogoya really a place you should try and never miss out in your life. Everything inside is so fresh and up to standard. Although the price is slightly higher, but what you pay is really what you will get dining in Jogoya. If possible, get a Jogoya VIP card and you will be able to taste special dishes!

Yuen Steamboat

2008-10-04T12:23:00.004+08:00

Buffets marathon strike me for the past few days. The marathon begins with Yuen's Steamboat buffet in Sunway. It has been quite some time since my last visit. This time we managed to sit on the 3rd floor. Can you imagine how good was Yuen's business, just a steamboat business and it has THREE floors! The food was fresh, full of varities, tasty and with affordable price.

Wondering why the people gathered around that area? Sometimes you have the chance to notice how hungry barbarians fight for foods, all kinds of attitudes are shown live just right in front of your eyes.
Just because of this =.= Chicken Wing~
Please line up and get the chicken wing politely in future, show your manners.

Korean Cuisine (updated)

2008-09-17T22:50:00.003+08:00

~~Coming up after my training exam.~~
~~Sleepless nights begin....~~

Proudly present to my supportive readers the long waited Korean cuisine post. Sorry for the delay due to my busy schedule. Lets begin our mouth-watering trip.

If you ever wanted to dine in a Korean BBQ Restaurant, lets think of DAORAE! It has a few branches in Malaysia, the one i went was the Kepong branch. I am going to share my enjoyable experience in Kepong branch at this moment. The minute we stepped into the restaurant, the restaurant owner and staffs welcome us warmly, it was really something amazing which you hardly able to see in this society nowadays.
(Why do i say so? i have just log a complain to a company handling Korean BBQ restaurant as well where one of the restaurant situated at AEON Bukit Tinggi Shopping Centre. What complain have i logged? pathetic customer service i ever experienced. Lets wait and see what will the company response to my email, i am really keen to know.)
Lets come back to the great cuisine!

Appetizer 1: Spicy white lobak soup. It was really refreshing after tasting it.

Appetizer 2, 3, 4 and so on~ LoL. These were tasty and generous servings. Wondering why i mention generous? We were allowed to refill for FREE! Tasty and refillable, where to get? Have you get your car key ready to drive to DAORAE? If you do, congratulations! If you haven't, just keep on reading my article, i am sure it will lead you to your car key and to DAORAE as well.

This was Kong-na-mul Guk-bab which consist of rice and bean-sprout in special oyster soup topped with an egg.
This was Kimchi Bok-um-bab which consist of Kimchi fried rice with fried egg.

This was one of our BBQ meat. I couldn't recall what was the name of it because it really look and taste much better than the photo in the menu!

BBQing the juicy meat!
BBQed meat ate together with vegetables, garlic and special sauce! What you should say? YUMMY!

Special treat by the restaurant owner. It was a plain Korean pancake. Do not mislead by my word "plain", although it was plain, but it was truely delicious! In the menu, there were 2 types of pancake, one was Kimchi-jeon and another was Pa-jeon! Can you imagine? Plain pancake already so tempting, what will you comment on the 2 types? Just go to DAORAE and feedback to me with your feelings.

These was our dessert. Watermelon, too ordinary? Not so fast, they were superb sweet! The shop really choose what is the best for the customers! ( i went another round of DAORAE trip after this, and the watermelon still so sweet!) They really have a good quality control!

These were the contacts and addresses of the DAORAE branches. Really hope you all enjoy your meal in DAORAE. Never try, never know, try, no lost.

2008-09-08T20:13:00.001+08:00

Crazily "cheap" convo ticket! i can't afford to invite more people, sorry guys n girls.

Simple, small, yet not simply, it still have some standard and looks simple grand.

Miyako Visit

2008-08-31T21:27:00.003+08:00

This was one of a great Japanese restaurant i had visited so far. I was having a buffet in it. The choices of food weren't that much, but for a meal they were just nice to fill the stomach with joy. Enjoying the taste and fulfilling the satisfaction is the most important moment while having our meal. Quantity is not a matter, but quality is a matter! If you are seeking for a buffet style Japanese restaurant with fine atmosphere and tempting food, i will suggest you to go to Miyako.

Below were some dishes i took:

Everything there were so fresh! A great place where you will never regret, worth for the price!

Rating
Atmosphere:8/10
Food:8/10
Price:7/10 (affortable if i go there once a while)

p/s: My rating was quite low due to my "tongue problem" since i came back from my trip. (Those who know me will know why :p)

Touching Moments

2008-08-28T21:38:00.003+08:00

Today i came across Tzy Wen's blog, noticed some touching stories he managed to get from HERE. Really worth to visit and have a look in it. Spend some of your time to care for the China earthquake victims.

Korean Dinner

2008-08-24T00:31:00.003+08:00

It was a funny shopping day, our 1st destination was Mid Valley, but sadly there wasn't much sales going on, it seemed that new season stuff has started. Without much hesitation, we headed to our 2nd destination which was Sunway Pyramid. After spending whole morning, afternoon and evening, we managed to obtain some harvest. Not that much, but happy enough. What was next? Of course, is DINNER! We went to Korean restaurant at Taipan in USJ to enjoy our meal.
I guess this was more interesting compare to the shopping harvest. This was my happiest moment of the day!

The restaurant's name was "Da Chang Jin". The employers and the employees spoke well in Korean. They were highly polite and having well manners.

There were 9 dishes of appetizers served. oh yes, NINE! Thats a lot. Most of them were having great temptation! Smell like superb and taste like superb.

This was my DOL SOT BIBIM BAB. It was a combination of mixed rice with various vegetables in the stone pot. It was a lovely delicious dish. The price was worth for it and you will never regret!

Chocolate Dip

2008-08-20T21:42:00.016+08:00

Why spend your time driving to a chocolate shop?
Why waste your time placing an order?
Why over pay on something cheap?
This is a way for you to experience economical, cheap, tasty, enjoyable moment.

Step 1: Purchase a good quality chocolate bar, break it into pieces in a bowl, heat up the pot.
p/s * must heat it together with water surrounding the bowl, you can try it without water, nyek nyek nyek~!

Step 2: Make sure the chocolate is fully melted.

Step 3: Prepare some favorite fruits of your choice. In this tour, i have chose apple.

Step 4: DIP the apple in the melted chocolate!

Step 5: Appreciate the outcome before tasting it.

Hope everyone have a great DIY chocolate dip tour. Live to eat, cheers~!

4. Middle School - The Cherry Blossoms Scatter

The stories were kind of too perfect, maybe it did happened on some of you, but no matter what, i am here to wish you all best of luck and fate to find your love ones.

It is time for me to gain experience and fill up my knowledge as much as possible. Thank you Huawei! I love you!
During noon, i went for a medical check up for pre- employment at Twin Tower Medical Center. it was my first time doing such thing. Firstly, urine test, this was embarrassing, the bottle they gave was so small, then need to shoot in it, it was really funny! Next was blood test, a junior stuff poke the needle into my hand, but take her sweet time pulling the needle out, then a senior stuff see enough of that, she take over and complete everything in a split second, is torturing experiencing the first scene. Then so on and so forth of tests.

At night, i went to Selayang Mall with miss ai ai, another friend of us put us aeroplane. Somehow, it was a great experience going there to see a singer sing and sign event. The singer was Jam, do not ask me who is him, i do not know as well.

Breakfast Strike

2008-07-17T09:10:00.002+08:00

Early morning when i opened the fridge, OMG, no more instant eatable food! First thing in my mind was "DO NOT TORTURE YOUR STOMACH". This means i gonna prepare a breakfast for myself already. So i dig here and there looking for things to cook since food storage was running out. These was what i found: yee mee, egg, smoked honey ham. No more hunger, i was saved by them!

Papa Gino's

2008-07-16T07:12:00.004+08:00

Marinara Pizza really shake the world with its combination of tomato, cheese, prawns, smoked mussels, baby clams, anchovies and garlic.

Closer look at the overwhelming freshness of the Marinara Pizza~

Pasta was so smooth and doing a bungee jump from my throat into my stomach.

Seafood plate was awesome, everything was so FRESH. It was like you were diving in the sea while capturing and swallowing them ONE by ONE.

Closer view of the prawn.
Closer view of the fish.
Closer view of the scallop.

Las Chicas Visit

2008-07-15T08:51:00.003+08:00

Chocolate Milk Shake and Hot Chocolate gave good start to the breakfast journey.

Lamb soup was the "Today's Special" in Las Chicas. It was really fabulous, the lamb taste was really there, really pure and solid ingredient used!

Forgot the name of this dish, but the ingredient were sunflower seeds, smoked salmon, egg, spinach and bread.

Forgot the name as well, but it consisted of bagal, melted cheese, egg and smoked salmon.

Judgement Day

2008-07-12T08:46:00.002+08:00

Weeee i saw 6060!!!!~ Didn't manage to get 1st class, but yet still got what i expected since i know my limit. The highest i always hope for is Second Class Upper. Finally, i got what i wanted! During my year 2, the average i got was only 65.4% and i managed to get to the Second Class Upper level. However, during my year 3 it was really a tough year, especially the final year project, got a bit screwed up with it but still managed to settle it. When the written final exam was over, i felt average for it. So, it was kinda scary for me to maintain that Second Class Upper. Nightmare haunted me everyday until the result was released! Lastly i would like to thanks for all the support from my family, my gf, my gf's family, my college lecturers, my college friends, my fyp team mates, my secondary school friends and all my friends that i knew or they knew me!

Self Prepared Breakfast

2008-07-10T07:12:00.002+08:00

Tempted by Jerome's food blog early in the morning, and this was what i had prepared for myself. It wasn't something complicated and well arranged, but it was an enjoyable moment i spent in kitchen. A happy breakfast will always leads to a start for a great day.

Paradise

2008-07-09T19:54:00.003+08:00

Nice beaches, nice wave, nice sunshine, really a lovely paradise for surfers! It would be so fun if i know how to surf! Miss the chance~

Mania~ Mania~

2008-07-09T19:26:00.002+08:00

Seafood Mania is really something you so NOT gonna miss if you visit Gold Coast. The restaurant was at surfer paradise area. The above one is chicken, another one is fish. Sadly, i had forgotten the name of the dishes! But the delicious taste and smell will always be in my mind forever.

Kid's Favorite

2008-07-08T08:58:00.003+08:00

Nice stage huh? Wondering what will be coming out!

DA~ TA~! Is Sesame Street!!!!! From the beginning of the show, i had been taking photos all the while, i had lost my interest to my childhood favorite. However, it was happy to see all those kids around jumping up and down with joy and dancing along with their idols.

TGI Friday

2008-07-06T15:51:00.004+08:00

TGI trip was fabulous! The strawberry surprise and summer cyclist chilled up one of life's unexpected pleasures, they was really a delightful mixture of beverages. Next, the main dishes were Jack daniel's steak with shrimp and Jack daniel's salmon. What can i say? The shrimps were swimming in your mouth before going down into your stomach. The beef and salmon was fantastic, their texture were so fresh. While you were eating the beef, it made you felt the breeze
of the grassy field. At the mean time, the salmon made you felt the splashing water from the river and you were like swimming together with the rest of the salmons!

Wah

2008-07-01T10:30:00.003+08:00

Hmm, this was really my first time saw mannequins with such huge thing. Really caught my attention when i walk passed. Special huh the mannequins~

Dip Dip Dip

2008-06-30T07:37:00.004+08:00

This was the Chocolate Dip at "Chocolate By The Bald Man Max Brenner". I felt a bit weird with the name, but it doesn't matter, the chocolate dip was really scrumptious. The moment the strawberry dipped with the melted chocolate, you are able to notice the strawberry yelling at you, "taste me! eat me! swallow me!". Gosh, the temptation was really out of mind and it tasted so great when the superb combination melted your heart and soul.
Delightful Chocolate mix waffle with strawberries, bananas and ice cream. This was not my order, so it was hard for me to describe how it attacked the stomach.
Strawberries did not satisfied the desire, so we ended up with Bananas dip with chocolate!

Unique Gelato

2008-06-30T07:24:00.004+08:00

wooohoooo, spot any unique stuff anyone? It looks like a durian, taste just like a durian and smell just like a durian. Proudly present you, the DURIAN gelate on the top right!! I am not sure does Malaysia have that, but it was my 1st time eating it here.

Sick? have some of this

2008-06-30T07:13:00.002+08:00

This was really something special that i noticed at the chocolate section. Medic Bar Chololate!! Nice packaging but dunno how does it taste like yet. The 50% his and 50% hers looks so funny, the percentage is so fair divided. LOL!

Mt Buller Trip

2008-06-24T07:39:00.002+08:00

Although it was quite unlucky that the 15cm of ice from the previous mountain report reduced to patches cm of ice but this was the master piece i able to make with those PATCHES of snow. LOL. Really a wonderful trip and it is definitely worth for the 3 hours journey.

Chicken Attack

2008-06-22T14:53:00.003+08:00

Hako's Terriyaki chicken was superb. Nothing much special but this dish was really different, the taste was really indescribable, it somehow tasted very unique. Gosh, don't know which type of animal will be attacked for the following days.

Lamb Attack

2008-06-21T20:13:00.003+08:00

This was the Marinated Lamb Fillets from The Oxford Scholar Hotel. The lamb was marinated with rosemary and garlic, served on a bed of Greek salad. It was really finger licking with no second thought.

Beef Attack

2008-06-20T21:22:00.004+08:00

Tasty steak at Warrook Cattle Farm, the meat was juicy, the sauce was delicious, the potato was well baked, the carrots and peas was so fresh. Really a lovely meal with the combo of 2 glasses of red wine. The salad was not my choice as it was quite raw and i feel like being a sheep munching the grass.

Lunch Time!

2008-06-19T20:24:00.003+08:00

Hungry hungry.. yum yum.. Mexican cuisine.. First time on a flight with a lot of empty seats. The place where i sit has 5 seats, a guy used up 3 out of 5 to sleep during the whole journey. Somehow i still has 2 seats, it was enough for me with such a big space to watch movies. Further update will be done in few days time, really busy right now.

Meal after Convo

2008-06-15T00:35:00.004+08:00

Yummy, this was my chicken kebab with Mediterranean rice and potato salad! Stupid waitress/chef mistaken my kebab order, i asked for a mild flavor, in the end came up with extra hot peri-peri flavor! Really burning my throat and stomach, but it was really delicious and finger licking. Thumbs up for Nando's!
This was the next station after Nando's, dessert at Gelatissimo!! The choices were so many, decision was hard to be made since we had limitation of scopes. (Wish to taste all)

Convo

2008-06-14T23:38:00.003+08:00

This was my friend, MK's convocation day! The convocation was held in TARC. It was her big big day, she was so happy on that day, her charming smile killed every photo we took. In the end, she told us her cheek was numb for maintaining hours of smile. I am so proud of her, happy to see her graduated! This was my first time attending a convocation of my friend, i love all those photo sessions with them, really had a great fun!

hahah... FREEDOM AT LAST!!!! (time to enter the cruel working world)

Darkness

2008-06-11T09:08:00.003+08:00

These few days i am sort of diverting my main reason for blogging. For my fellow readers that love to read my personal feelings in my blog, continue to enjoy. Meanwhile for my fellow readers that love to view and read meaningful photo, please bear with me for these few days. Thanks everyone for your support. Sounds serious? nah, don't worry, it is just that i am busy with my demo and thesis redo. Later at 1pm, lecturer will return my thesis to me and i will need to boost my mind and my working speed for the sake of finishing my redo thesis before Thursday morning. It sounds impossible, but i will just try since my time is limited.

Demo and Viva Session Tomorrow

2008-06-09T22:53:00.003+08:00

Should i say FINALLY or should i say LUCKILY, which ever i don't think it is as well. Is just being UNLUCKY i should say, now my schedule is all messed up thanks to the delay on last Friday. There is no point blaming anyone at this stage, i have already no mood and no heart to present the piece of project which is TWO months ago. So, i will just spill out what i remember for the sake of getting through this. Blog will be updated after i settle the headache stuff, wish me best of luck k.

Night Outing

2008-06-08T13:28:00.002+08:00

Since the party end at 11pm, the night was still young. So, a bunch of silly fella went down to Kl n Cheras n KL n Cheras. Know why? because wrong turning! 5 cars all lost together but it was quite fun having a group of friends traveling around. So, the destination ended up at "little genting", the road was dark, very dark but once you reached the top, you will be able to see the whole KL night scene, it was really breathtaking. On top of the hill, we went to Gasoline to have our meal, 20 peoples getting together to have a meal really a rare chance.

Strawberry shake will be my recommendation for my supportive blog readers for Gasoline at "little genting".

Lame Noon but Wonderful Rave Night

2008-06-07T16:50:00.010+08:00

Lets start with a BIG BIG lame noon story first, suppose there was a demo on a group project in the noon, therefore everything had been set up nicely in the lab, clock ticking and ticking n ticking, we waited for hours for our supervisor and accessors to come, at 5.15pm we already tolerate enough for all the waiting, so we went downstairs to find the supervisor, guess what, he was having some sort of meeting at the admin office. Before we went down, we did we sms and call him, but none of it works, he didn't reply any sms, didn't accept any call. Come on peoples! no matter how busy you are or any important stuff turns up suddenly, will you inform those people that are waiting for you? OF COURSE you will right! If u can't make it in time, just inform us, in a group there are 4 people, means 4 mobile phone, can't you even contact anyone of us? If you are busy, then please do not set the demo time on the day, we do not mind that you inform us earlier for changing the date, do not make us wait and wait and wait and end up EMPTY!! kinda feel frustrated with such people. OK the end of the LAME story.

Now i start with something which is more interesting, on the same day, there was a rave party held in the MPH, sounds weird, sounds lame right, that was my first thought somehow, but turns out quite interesting yet memorable!
Kinda funny with the ticket, but "106" my lucky number!! know why? keep on reading.
This was what i get from the "106". My first time being so lucky, kinda happy although the present inside was nothing much.

Present containing voucher, Stabilo set, Celebrities Fitness 1 month entry, "Prom Night" buy 1 free 1 ticket, Adidas arm band, and 1 more is Adidas spray thing which i lost it somewhere else. Besides the lucky draw, it was a really fun night hanging around with my college friends. Since the party was held in a college, so everything is so CLEAN, no alcohol, no cig, this was my first time ever entering a rave with fresh air! During the dancing period, i was really amused by Aaron, he can dance well on the dance floor, really salute him, applause to the pure shuffle guy!

Rolling Days

2008-06-06T00:33:00.006+08:00

Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun continuously repeating in our life and that ends up as a week and a month and a year. Summing up all those produce a life cycle, life is short right? It doesn't really matter if ones living his/her life worthily. Memories are always the best thing for keeping a person alive and providing the strength to live on. Good memories keep it for future recall, bad memories keep it as well for future guidance. Life ain't that bad after all IF SALARY INCREASES DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL WITH THE INFLATION. LoLx~

Lamp

2008-06-05T02:01:00.000+08:00

Everyone has a shinning lamp in their heart, just follow the glowing rhythm and you will reach your destination. Life is always up and down, just follow your heart and no regrets when you recall back what you had did.

Sushi trip

2008-06-05T00:25:00.000+08:00

Wonderful sushi trip at Shogun in Sunway Pyramid. The varieties of Japanese, Oriental, Western cuisines are awesome!! The price is definitely worth paying for such a grand meal. We must always treat our stomach nice, always treat it as a VIP or even VVIP, a happy meal will always bring joy to our life. Nevertheless, what can we do with the amount of money we spend on food and beverage nowadays with the market inflation and even worst, the petrol price!!! thats the worst news i received after having all those nice food stuffed in my stomach, during august is even worst, i heard that the price of petrol will range according to the variable market price!!!!! Hmm, guess thats not the main problem to wonder around first, food and beverage still come in first place :p

Souvenir from Friend

2008-06-03T16:46:00.000+08:00

Lovely Lovely, what a nice souvenir from Lang Tengah. Thanks jia yen. By the way, all the best in your coming exam, i am sure you are able to do well since you had prepared quite alot, we are sleeping yet you are studying, we are eating yet you are studying too, we are playing yet you are studying as well.

Sunshine Finally

2008-06-03T16:14:00.000+08:00

Two weeks of darkness had reached an end. There goes the enemies, 4 were down and good luck to all the "knights" that had attended the battle field. On the last day, our beloved "priest" told us something, this is not the first time he mentioned those grandmother stories and those motivation speech, we had been trusted him for a long time, but every time he let us down, should we still believe him or should we just walk our own way. Frustration, Confusion and sadness hit us again. By this week, the story will has a better ending. Behold, all "knights", another strike and we will win the war once and for all.
