TWO DAYS UPON RETURNING TO IPOH, I had another scrumptious dinner with my group of ex-classmates! It was a Get-Together again for the ten of us, good company, great food to enhance the meet-up at East Ocean Restaurant in Menglembu. We ordered something spectacular this time, thinking that one dish...
MANY THANKS TO MY IN-LAWS FOR A SCRUMPTIOUS DINNER AT PULAI SPRINGS RESORTS....We had a late dinner on Friday evening, it was almost 8.30pm when we reached the Pulai Springs club. Only two tables including ours were occupied, perhaps all the earlier diners have gone back. Not everyone goes for...
SOME OF MY IPOH FRIENDS POSTED THIS QUESTION EVERY NOW AND THEN... "Hey, what are you doing in JB? How do you spend the time while son is working? Not boring meh?" LOL.... Friends, I miss you all when I am down south, miss your company and the Foodie time, miss the chattering among us... etc...
HOW DO I SPEND THE DAYS IN JOHOR? Very easy... wake up late, take lunch, go marketing, walk around the little nest with a broom, prepare dinner, take dinner and then TV throughout the evening till bedtime. Of course, I managed to squeeze in some blogging work during the day as well. That...
IT WAS A SUNDAY EVENING, still a weekend and we decided to eat out before the home kitchen opens again. It has become a norm, that is, during weekends, we will eat out and for weekdays, it will be homecooked food all the way.For this particular Sunday evening, we decided to go to Hook Sang Restaurant,...
ON MY FIRST EVENING IN JOHOR, we had a late dinner, it was almost 8pm when we reached Ong Shun Restaurant at Jalan Abdul Samad, Kampung Bahru. After a heavy lunch, the timing was just right. The crowd was already in full blast but service was swift. Within minutes our food were all laid...
TIME TO MOVE ON AFTER A TWO WEEKS REST IN IPOH... Yes, I am a traveling NOMAD and I am NOT MAD... I cannot sit too long in a place though I would love to be. One fine morning, Andy messaged to say that Firefly is giving offer, only RM59 per way to JB! Oh, oh... from that moment, my travel bugged...
WHEN A GUEST CAME TO TOWN, my mind would be wondering where to go for our meals... If it is within Ipoh, there would not be a problem. But if we want to go out of the way for special food, then I would Message SOS to my friends! And that was exactly what I did when we thought of taking dinner a...
YEARNING FOR SOME THAI FOOD... During my "absence".. my friends told me that they went to this Sawadee Thai Restaurant at Medan Ipoh to try some of their special dishes. When I heard Thai food, first thing that came to my mind was the Tom Yum. I had my share of that too when I was at London...

Waking up early in the morning did not help either, I was feeling kind of groggy for the waking time in Malaysia is...
FOR THE FIRST FEW DAYS, I was having some jet lag, I could not sleep even though it was almost midnight. Waking up early in the morning did not help either, I was feeling kind of groggy for the waking time in Malaysia is actually sleeping time in Scotland. LOL.... But after a week, I was back to...
HAPPY MOMENTS PASSES BY VERY FAST AND SOON IT IS TIME TO SAY GOODBYE... Sounds familiar? Yes, it is time to bade goodbye after a 25 days vacation in UK. If not for my girl whose semester break has ended, I would have stayed longer... perhaps for another month or two... hahahaha... By then, any...
REACHED ABERDEEN RIGHT ON TIME IN THE EVENING... So nice of Mr. Moh to fetch us from the airport and straight to his guesthouse for dinner! The superb aroma of the food reached our nostrils even before we reached the kitchen. Mary, as usual, had her hands full in the kitchen, she is a super...
OUR TRIP IN LONDON AND WALES CAME TO AN END, all credit goes to Aaron for organizing this wonderful 10 days 9 nights stay for me and my girl. On the 10th day at 10am, we checked out from our Easy Hotel at Old Street, took a 6 minute to the tube station and soon, we were on our way to the Heathrow...
A ROUND UP ON THE LAST DAY IN LONDON... We really made full use of our day, from Camden Market in the morning, then to Buckingham Palace, St James Park, Westminster Abbey and our walk continued on to Big Ben and lastly to London Bridge! Throughout my life, I think I had not walked so much before...
Last minute retreat or getaway? Couple's vacation for two? Just because you want to get away for a few days, even if you book and plan it last minute, doesn't mean you have to pay too much to enjoy your mini-retreat vacation. So, when planning for a weekend break, or simply going off on a whim, these are a...
SINCE IT WAS OUR LAST DAY IN LONDON, we wanted to cover as much as we could... and so our walk continued on from St. James Park to Westminster Abbey.... and one famous icon that Aaron mentioned we must take a picture like this.... below....Iconic scene of London....Must not leave London without taking...
FROM THE BUCKINGHAM PALACE, we walked to St. James Park which is nearby. First thing first, we looked for the restroom and we have to fork out 20 pence to use them. Well, we do not mind paying as long as the toilets are well kept and clean and that was exactly what they are. With the hot...
FROM CAMDEN MARKET, WE ADJOURNED VIA SUBWAY TO BUCKINGHAM PALACE... Another one place I have visited since the 1980s! I could still remember the Buckingham Palace and Hyde Park.... nothing much has changed and since it was a Sunday, the roads were closed from cars and it was a very long walk for the...
