FROM QUEENSBAY MALL BACK TO THE HOTEL ROOM TO FRESHEN UP FOR COUNTDOWN TO 2017 AT STRAITS QUAY... I have not been to Straits Quay for a long while, even my favourite restaurant Delicious is no more operating. The last time I went, business was very brisk, we have to wait half an hour to get...
We all know how extremely difficult it is to travel with kids as it feels like the entire house has to be packed in the bags from diapers and clothes to food and toys. Entertainment options, unfortunately, while on the road, are indispensable as they are crucial in keeping kids busy and distracted. Luckily,...
STARTED OUR JOURNEY UP NORTH AROUND 9.30AM, reaching Penang Island around 11.30am, just nice to have lunch. Traffic was quite smooth though drizzling most of the way, nevertheless the weather didn't dampen our spirits especially for my girl. She loves Penang more after spending eight months of...

HOW I SPENT MY DAY....Sacrificed my sleep, waking up earlier than usual and out from my house at 8am to First Garden to have a nice breakfast and most importantly, to meet up with my ex-colleagues, catching up with the latest "gossips" from one another. LOL... Those days I used to rush back to...
I HAVE BEEN COOKING FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS... very simple homecooked food, fit only to feed simple people like me. ahemmmm... I like rice, at least once a day if possible, rice is carbohydrates, very fast put on weight if not careful. Needless to say, I have not been very careful for the past few...
MY SECOND VISIT TO 101 BAN MEE AT STATION 18....I don't mind coming for my third visit, there are a few more varieties which I would love to taste. It opens in the morning and by noon or so, the shop will be closed, so the next time I must go earlier to catch the "Water Dumplings" before they run out...
SINCE WE WOKE UP EARLY, we made our way to Jalan Pasir Puteh for our breakfast. The shop has no specific name, even the name on the signboard has faded but the business did not. Each day the crowd will be there for their signature Hakka noodles. And yes, the shop is actually called Hakka...
SUPPOSEDLY TO GO HOKKAIDO LAST EVENING.... but ended up in Sushi Zento instead. The place in Hokkaido was fully booked for the Christmas Eve, no reservations, no seats, they apologized, it is fine, no worries, we told them. We adjourned to Sushi Zento, waited for five to ten minutes and we were...
MY LIFESTYLE NEEDS TO BE CHANGED... All eating and no exercise won't do, I tell myself. Alright, it is from the doctor's advice too, I need to refer back to him in three months time to check my cholesterol level again, at the moment, it is on the high side. I know I have not been...
During our stay in Aberdeen, my son booked British Airways domestic flight to London for us. We did not check in any luggage, like Air Asia, we need to pay for check in bags. So having a cabin bag will do, 7kg for a ten days stay is enough for each of us. Before going to the airport, my...
BIRTHDAY CUM CHRISTMAS DINNER with my ex-classmates again! Last evening we had our double celebration at Oceanville Restaurant at MH Hotel here in Ipoh. It is a Halal restaurant as far as I know, I have never been there before and anything new, I am all for it. The drizzling did not dampen the...
ONE EVENING WE WENT TO THE HAWKER CENTER just outside the Perak Stadium. During the day, nice local food are easily accessible too and during the evening, different stalls will be opened as well. Not so much as a tourist spot during the evening, so parking is available without having to go round...
I AM SITTING AT HOME QUIETLY... arranging my favourite album called Food and these pictures below were taken recently. This post will be all on Chee Cheong Fun in Cantonese, won't be translating them in English for fear that they would sound a bit gross to some and might have some adverse effects on...
UPON REACHING IPOH, our tummies were already growling for food... It was almost 2pm, supposedly to reach around Ipoh around 1pm but unfortunately, traffic was crawling after the Tapah highway. It is a bit difficult to find food in Ipoh after 2pm, I really did not have any idea where to eat until...
Whenever the topic turns to household chores, my lady friends including me will give a big Sigh... The work in the house never finishes, we readily agree. Every each day, there will be something for us to do, I do not have a maid now, every part of the house belongs to me... Correction, every part and...
BACK IN IPOH... and wondering what to eat in the evening. There were two options, western food or chinese food, I asked my girl to decide. The western food cuisine is near my house, just five minutes drive whereas the other one is situated fifteen minutes away. Yes, in Ipoh, everywhere is...
WHEN WE HEARD THAT FROM MY SIL, hands were all up for the buffet lunch. The next morning, we "skipped" breakfast, ok, let me speak for myself. I purposely woke up later than usual and drank a mug of diluted oats so that I wouldn't faint with an empty stomach before noon. By 11.30am, the...
