Long awaited update

So sorry people..My most sincere apology..Been busy with thesis stuff and now my holiday is over only I remember to update..But anyway,holiday have been boring for me besides a few occasional clubbing nights out and yeah...Hadn't really been traveling around and hunt for good food..Sighs..I am now super craved for good foods.

Anyway..here are a few pictures of foods..Enjoy!

My favorite place to have banana leaf..Nirvana's in Bangsar Telawi.Although it is quite pricy,but I still like it because of the fried bitter gourd.It is not bitter at all and it is just...Very rice.It is red in color because they fried it with I forgot what powder was it already lol. If you don't order side dish I think by just eating like this is also very filling as you can ask them to serve you with as much rice as you want and the currys and dhal you have to put in yourself to suit your own taste.



Side dish:- mutton bermasalah.I mean.masala mutton.It is very nice,not really that spicy although it looks scarily reddish, and the lamb is very tender.Don't have the typical lamb smell as well.Love it.But I think this small plate should cost me about 8-10 bucks @@


Ayam masala


If you don't want to eat plain rice..You can also order other rice from them.But of course,they will charge you for the rice la and I'm not sure how much is it.Tracy's banana leaf with nasi briyani


Next stop!Chopstick noodle house located in Mid Valley (:

Went there with baby bug for dinner quite some time ago and we always dine in Mid Valley...Basically,MV is like my second house already..I am always there and lepak..Spending my precious time in Starbucks drinking my favorite chocolate ice blended or having a cup of signature hot chocolate while reading my favorite books, be it twilight series or P.S. I Love you.It is kinda rejuvenating I could say.
Well..Chopstick noodle house.Not bad for their food and it is some place that I'd pay a visit again the the future.

Baby bug's dunno what emperor's noodle with some gravy.



My favorite Szechuan noodle.But it is not spicy at all ): I always thought Szechuan food is supposed to be spicy..Aww...But this restaurant is not that pricy..After all our bill came up to 33 bucks only for both of us with drinks.. (:



Newyork newyork in 1U

According to Karmun,this newyork newyork thing is from singapore and we happen to pass by this place before and it the food looked good,so Karmun decided that I should spend him his birthday dinner there and off we go.But to be frank..I was kind of disappointed with the food there as it was not up to my standard..Oh well..Probably at the first place I held too high expectations before I go there.

Some items from their menu..

Hot beverages


Desserts


Appetizers


Main course


Karmun's rootbeer with ice cream


My favorite chocolate with marshmellow.This drink is very nice as I have a picky mouth for chocolate drinks and I was loving this drink :D


Appertizers:- buffalo wings.I could say it taste very different from TGIF or Chili's buffalo wing and it taste quite good.


Some cheese fountain thing appertizer...Serve with fried eggplant, mushroom and dunno what was the other 2 thing.It was still good when the cheese was hot and after it gets cold become very salty and the fried stuff becomes soggy and oily.




Main course:-
Extra size hotdog.Not impressive at all and I hated the bun.From the look only i could tell the bun is dry and not moist at all.I only ate the hotdog and it was just normal chicken hotdog.


Some cheesy chicken thing.The chicken breast was juicy and tender,however the chicken breast is not marinated before they cook it.So the meat is practically tasteless if you don't eat it with the cheese topping.


As I wasn't satisfy and indeed I was a little disappointed..It is like incomplete and the feeling of empty hole not filled was haunting me..So I decided to give it one last chance to try out their dessert as I saw quite a few customers ordered it and it was their signature dessert..


However,I was still disappointed at the end of the day.I'd prefer Delicious' classic chocolate cake better and it is definitely cheaper..Classic chocolate cake in Delicious only cost me RM9.90 without tax and this one is like..RM15.90 without tax?Seriously...I'd never consider going back there again,although the total bill for all 5 dishes came out about RM110 which is quite cheap for me but the food is not up to standard..So there's no point for me to go back anymore..


This is one of the chinese shop that sells chinese herbal and bird's nest thing in between MV and gardens at the lower ground floor,where they call it "gurney drive", which is close to cold storage or big apple's donuts.Me and baby bug decided to try this out as each time whenever we pass by it is filled with people.

My yam rice wrapped in lotus leaf.Not bad,but not impressive enough.



Baby bug ordered dunno what chicken soup and I saw the ingredient...It was supposed to be bitter but it was not and this soup is very nice...They really spend a great deal of time to cook the soup... XD


Baby bug's shrimp fried rice.It tasted good and I actually prefer his dish over mine.So in the end we exchanged our dishes XD


Moving on..We all love tuesday.Why?Because it is earthquake day in Swensens!To be frank..the ice cream there not bad..Especially a few flavor like old fashioned vanilla..Mad chocolate and something like that...


Last but not least..So far my favorite dessert,Tiramisu from Italianies.It cost RM16.90 if I'm not mistaken and although I had better tiramisu in Cafe Cafe which cost me RM23, but I still crave for this Tiramisu from time to time.

Prawn fishing!

Last Saturday sent baby Teddy for grooming and while waiting for him,baby bug and me went to this shop in Kepong which we can fish Prawns.It cost RM15 per hour and I forgotten how much he paid,as we fished for 2 hours.RM60 or more plus rental of the fish rod.

I would say for impatient human being like me,it is considered as fun also.Wait for the prawn to come and eat your bait,then you have to be skilled enough to pull it up.I had a few prawns ate my bait and escaped because I pulled the rod in a wrong way and they managed to escaped T_T

My first prawn!So proud so proud.



Baby bug's first prawn



Our prawns!



And they ended up dead X_x



I have to say,although these are fresh water prawns but they taste really good.And this shop in Kepong, they keep putting in more prawns into the pool and yeah it's quite easy to fish prawns there.And according to baby bug, this shop is good because they give fresh bait (freshly cut big worm) and at least they are honest to give you whatever you have fished.The shop he went in Puchong changed their and gave him frozen prawns.

And those prawns ended up in our stomach the same night as baby bug cooked a sumptuous dinner with all the prawns with chili paste.

Last but not least,a groomed handsome cute and hot baby Teddy!



Very cute kan? <3

See...Like father like son.Both look so alike!

Foods!

I know you all are so gonna hate me for this...Due to my extreme laziness,I have decided to put all pictures of food I have eaten in the past weeks in one single entry...Love me pleaseee!I swear I am going to bring you to the places with great food I have been to!No cheng /no

Hajime..Again!
Went with baby Lynn..forgotten when but she was envy seeing me been there thrice in 2 weeks...So went with her to fill her cravings!

Tuna and Salmon sashimi.Don't tell me you can't differentiate which is which.Both are great but I presonally prefer salmon.



Japanese cold soba.Super delicious!



Mother love or motherly love.Salmon roll with cucumber wrapped inside and topped with Ikura!Me loveeeeeeeeee Ikura!



Canton-I @ 1U

As baby Lynn craved for their Char Siew rice...So have to fill her cravings,again..So,off we go to Canton-I..I didn't really like it because I am a soup-noodle person and unfortunately there's no souo noodles in Canton-I!How disappointing that is!

My fried beef noodle.Don't really like it as it tastes like char kuey teow and what more,it is worse than normal char kuey teow! >3




Lynn's favourite char siew rice..I can't deny it but the char siew was really good...It was really soft and it literally melts in your mouth..MhhMmmmmmm...Yummy!



My sucky deep fried black sesame dumpling.Suck suck suck and I hated it.The glutinous flour layer is so freaking thich that I literally cannot really taste the black sesame filling inside and it's like chewing chewing gum as the flour was too much.



Fong Lye Resrautant located in Gardens,right opposite of Sushi Zanmai,at the Robinson side.

Each time I pass by this restaurant is filled with people and there are tonnes of people taking number and waiting outside.So it got me really have this desire to try their food and last Friday, baby bug asked me out for a movie in GSC Signature in Gardens so I decided to give this restaurant a shot.And I had to wait like 10minutes for my table ): I never had to queue for a restaurant that long ):



Our pot of Jasmine Oolong tea that cost RM12.But it's nice and I like it.Still I think it is too pricy X_x



Deep fried salted chicken.Very nice and I like it.But it is very pricy also...this cost RM9.30.And I have to admit,they have really strange pricing.RM9.30,RM5.30 ?_?



Jeng jeng jeng...This is the main dish of the dinner...Braised beef noodle!It is very very very nice!And it's not spicy at all!The sliced beef wasn't too soft and you got something to chew on!According to baby bug,the last time he tried it the beef was super soft to the extend where you can tear the beef by just using your tongue and it literally melts in your mouth!Now now did I just get you salivated?



The side dishes that come with the noodle,from left:- Marinated siput and abalone slices.It is very nice and I love it a lot!The middle one is some stupid sausage wrapped in flour,fried and wrapped with a layer of white sesame.The last one is some smelly black soy bean with slices of bittergourd and some ikan bilis.Me no likey bittergourd /no



I love this Taiwan restaurant and i am definitely going back for more!

Delicious' dessert

I am always a big fan for Delicious by Ms Read as I love their food,tea and of course, their desserts!How can one not love their desserts?Simply irresistible!My dessert of the week is this one!Banana pudding with butterscotch topping!Only RM9.90!


Oh and I love their Banofee pie too.Too bad no picture was taken because...The pie ended up inside my mouth before I could remember to take picture!Hahahah,I just cannot resist food la!

Enjoy the entry my dear friends! *Evil laugh*

Birthday celebrations

I know I've not been keen on updating my blog, a big part of it being I was too busy with my birthday celebrations with different bunch of peoples.On Thursday, which was my actual birthday, I went out with my college friends to Hajime for lunch.Unfortunately,we went quite late and the place was packed,and the service was lousy as the staffs only can manage small crowd.I wanted to try Sea Urchin sashimi that day but unfortunately it wasn't fresh so they wouldn't and cannot serve it.Then due to the overwhelming crowd,the salmon was sold out!Like wtf sial,everything I wanted also not available.Then I got a bit disappointed because I don't get what I want for my birthday ):.

After lunch,me and the bunch headed to Curve for a late karaoke session.And jinx enough on my birthday, it was fucking jam everywhere.It took us like one and half hour to reach Curve.But we had an awesome time in the karaoke.And I'm happy!

Dinner, went to Tenji with baby bug.At first he lied to me say he never have the time to get me my birthday present,but actually he bought me an Ipod Nano 4th generation as he knew I've always wanted to change my mp3 player which my ex gave it to me like...5 years ago.The day before my birthday,I was actually checking on Ipod Touch and the next day I get an Ipod Nano.Awesome!

Food in Tenji was actually quite okay despite the negative feedbacks I've heard.But I think it is rather pricy,with RM101.20 per pax.Well,it is actually RM88++ per pax but with tax and stuff,it is actually the same price as Jogoya.Frankly, with the current Jogoya's food standard,I'd rather visit Tenji.

Soft shell crab and pumpkin cake.Both also very nice,especially the soft shell crab.It is very meaty compared to those I've ate before.



Our all time favourite,fresh oyster with touch of lemon!


Fresh boiled prawns and octopus sashimi!



Bamboo clams and I forgot what fish already.This fish is very special because it has no meat but eggs.Inside the stomach is filled with eggs.



Teppanyaki mushrooms and beef wrapped with enoki mushroom.Both dishes tastes very good too (:



Dessert - Chocolate marshmellow,which I didn't like quite well because the marshmellow was hard and they doesn't melt inside your mouth ): Left - chocolate pudding and right - Tiramisu.Only the chocolate pudding was edible.



Tenji serves young coconut as well and they are really good.Besides that, they also have variety of drinks from iced teas to really good espresso (not like I drink,but bug does).I am so in love with their lavender tea!Also,they do have free flow of Haagan daaz ice cream.Belgium chocolate is one of it and I love belgium chocolate!

On friday,basically I rotted at home until at night,I got myself prepared to go poppy.I had my birthday party celebration there and it was absolutely awesome.All thanks to baby lynn,Reychel dear and whoever that came made it so happening.First 15minutes of my arrival, I had to down 4 cups already because everyone was trying to make me drunk.I also had one flaming Lamborghini and champagne,and the best part was I had an empty stomach before I got there.I didn't have the chance to have my dinner due to some last minute changes.I got high really fast and yeah the gastric was bad.Eugene made the MC shouted my name and greeted me happy birthday so many times and they even got me a chocolate cake too.Thank you so much people for making my birthday memorable (: I really had fun that night and now I wish I have another birthday bash there.Like everyday!

On the side note, it is a tradition in poppy where the birthday person gets thrown into the pool.I met Karmun there and he almost had his manager friend to throw me into the pool and I was practically running around the whole night to avoid getting thrown into the pool.But it was still fun and I was so messed up.Like totally a soh poh just came out from don't know where.

Saturday!Spent some time with my babies and then dinner at Cafecafe with kakak and abang.Their treat!And thank you abang for settling the bill,thank you kakak for the lovely cake!

Cafecafe, located near Hang Tuah,serves Western food and their food are quite good I could say.But it is rather pricy,one dish minimum like RM30?Once in awhile go there should be fine I guess.Everything at moderate is good for both health and your wallet! (:

Chef's special,omelet roll with cavier, and baby potato with mayonnaise.Only available when you order their set!



Kakak's risotto porcini.Rice with mushroom and black sauce.It is good but I think it is very filling and it tasted very salty after it got cold.



Abang's lambshank.Very nice,don't have the lamb smell that I hate.And below that lambshank is mashed potato,and my flash is too kao already.Everything become white /swt



My carbonara penne,very nice and creamy (:



Desserts - lemon pie.We all didn't like it because it tasted a bit weird.The lemon was super sour and I think they used goat cheese and it was...funny.The whole pie just tasted funny -_-



Tiramisu!So far the best I've ever tasted.RM23 for this T_T

94

Kakak's home made chocolate marshmellow cake for me /lv Love it!Thank you kakak for the lovely present!



Sunday!Went to Hajime again with Fuzz at dinner time because I wasn't really happy that I didn't get to eat sea urchin and salmon on Thursday.

Finally!The long awaited sea urchin sashimi!Although it wasn't fresh but we still gave it a shot because I think I was quite desperate.Thank you heng! XD



Scallop sashimi as recommended by baby lynn.It was absolutely awesome!



The total bill for the dinner XD



Thank you everyone for the lovely wishes and celebrations!

Your call

The title has nothing to do with this entry.I guess throughout the years I get more and more protective of myself and yes,I hardly even pen down my own personal thoughts anymore because I doesn't want people to know.But I can't stay like this forever.I am sucking in so much to myself and I meet the bursting point more frequent than I usually do.When I burst,I breakdown,depress,cry,blame myself for my stupidity,for what I thought I could handle,for what I thought it was best,I blame myself for being so heroic and blame myself for overestimated myself and underestimated what something or someone meant for me,and what they have made me become,someone I am today.No one have to know it as long as they are happy.One person bearing all is better than spreading it to the others,because it will only bring sadness to others.

Even my not so close college friends commented that I am less chirpy and hyper these days.Am I not the same again?Could it because I'm just tired of being chirpy all the time to entertain and keep everyone happy,or that incident really affected me this much?I am not sure,and it will be painful for me to look for the answer.I don't want to,I am afraid for the answer.People say time heals and time will tell.Time is the key to everything.Does it really help?Time heals,time cures,time eases,or does it simply just helps us to forget?Perhaps I am too old now.The wound heals very slow these days.Does it explain why my legs have many scars now?

Crying,getting depressed is a sign of weakness to me.And I hate being weak.How I wish I can be strong at all time and at anytime I want.But nothing can make me strong now.I am just leaving it to die off, and I am tired of getting myself up,and then go through the same circle again.Yes...but ironically this is what life exactly is isn't it?Go through the same circle of obstacles and it will make us stronger,or so they say.Could I say that my view of life is this :- our lives is like a pencil.We starts with fresh and unsharpened, throughout our journey, we write many journals.Whenever one end of graphite finishes, that is the end of one chapter; we rest,gather our thoughts and courage, leave out the pain and, sharpen ourselves again and we move on to write another chapter.Throughout the process of writing journals, we might meet things or people that helps us to regenerate, or the other way around, things or people that make us need to sharpen ourselves more often than usual in writing one chapter.But you see,we are not regenerating as quickly as how we are sharpening ourselves.So, we are getting shorter and shorter each when chapter ends.And when we gets short,it mean we are near to the end.

And I think life is exactly working like this.When we gets old, we heals slower.When we gets shorter,we heal/regenerate slower as well.So at the end of the day,when we are near the end, the only thing we could do is to leave it to die off.Very pessimistic view of life,I know.People always say we can gather ourselves and stand on our feet again, just whether we want to or not.Nothing is impossible.And this is exactly how I used to view the world last time.Nothing is impossible,as long as you have the will to do it.But today,I finally get to feel the feeling of unable to do something,no matter how bad you want it.It is just out of your hands,and nothing you can do to help it,to make it yours,to make it come back, or to make it stay.

I'm just sick of pretending to be strong for everyone.I'm just sick of pretending all chirpy and happy just to make people around me happy.But I hate to see people gets so worried about and each time I just have to put on the mask again to make them not to worry about me.I have to pretend that I have already move on to make them feel alright.In my whole life I have been doing things for people,hardly any for myself.And this time,I really wanted a tattoo for myself,but I care about the consequences of how others would feel and I don't want to regret it because of others' negative comment about it.I'm just the world's biggest loser.I was supposed to get it done by this coming Wednesday, as my birthday is on Thursday.It's not coming true,and I don't know when it will come true.I guess, dream will always be a dream.

I'm listening to Secondhand Serenade - Your call.
I guess,this song really portrays what I feel now and how helpless I am.And it is very nice too.

Waiting for your call, I'm sick, call I'm angry
call I'm desperate for your voice
Listening to the song we used to sing
In the car, do you remember
Butterfly, Early Summer
It's playing on repeat, Just like when we would meet
Like when we would meet

I was born to tell you I love you
and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine
Stay with me tonight

Stripped and polished, I am new, I am fresh
I am feeling so ambitious, you and me, flesh to flesh
Cause every breath that you will take
when you are sitting next to me
will bring life into my deepest hopes, What's your fantasy?
(What's your, what's your...)

I was born to tell you I love you
and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine
Stay with me tonight

And I'm tired of being all alone, and this solitary moment makes me want to come back home
x4
(I know everything you wanted isn't anything you have)

I was born to tell you I love you
and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine
Stay with me tonight

I was born to tell you I love you
and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine
Stay with me tonight
(I know everything you wanted isn't anything)
