Penang Trip Day 2

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.

Back on track for a moment

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

Sign off

GREAT weekend

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!

Fullhouse at 牛车水

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~

Boston Baru Klang

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!

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!
