I still get "connected" to my ex-colleagues through our smart phones. WhatsApp (or watsap as I used to call it) is the one which connects us almost everyday. We are no more working together in the same building, some have retired and some are transferred to another town, we still keep in touch.This...
After our lunch in Bali Assam House, we made a quick stopover at old town Concubine's lane aka Yee Lai Hong. Time was not on our side, my friend had to catch the train at 4pm... and when we reached old town, it was already 3.25pm...This was the first time visiting these souvenir shops along concubine...
So happy to receive a message last night for a meet up and "Food Session" this afternoon. My friend came and picked the three of us up and off we adjourned to our last-minute suggestion place called Bali Assam House in Medan Ipoh Bistari.It was almost one and the place was quite packed. We...
I joined a group in Facebook recently, it is called We Love Ipoh, City Of Good Food. The group title itself is so alluring that I could not resist being a member. There are so many places in Ipoh that I haven't "explored" as yet where food is concerned. And coming by to this group, I have come to...
Yearning for the Buntong Fried Noodles again... this time I went along with my sister who didn't know where this place was relocated... and now she knows, she will bring her friends there next time. We reached MX11 at around 7pm and surprisingly this time, the place was quite full already.Most of the...
We attended a talk at the Casuarina Hotel in Meru, arriving there around 8.30am and it was over by 12 noon. Time passed super fast (especially with the smart phone at hand) and soon it was time for the lunch buffet. There was an art exhibition at the same time we attended the talk...That...
A nice gathering this evening with my ex-colleagues, in fact, an unexpected dinner at the last minute. I suggested going to Weng Kee Restaurant and all readily agreed... Since I was a bit late, I told my friends to order first and I only named two dishes. Upon arriving my friends asked me why I like...
Somehow we always go back to the same stalls over and over again while we are in Penang... and we decided that we must not do that anymore next time... we must try other stalls which we have not been to the next time. Of course we should do some "food homework" before we go to Penang again...
My Penang trip posts are far from over yet... Looking back, my buffet dinner at E O have yet to be posted up. Unfortunately the pictures did not turn out very well and thus not doing much credit to the food. Nevertheless, from the publicity, the buffet at this prestigious hotel is one of the best in...
I remember one year ago 2013 I came here on my birthday with my girl... and this year 2014 same month, I am here again for dinner. That shows how much I love western food... hahaha...... but sometimes I do yearn for it.. once a blue moon... and last evening was a blue moon, I guess... and so here I am...
Today is exactly one month since my mom's passing.... last Saturday we gathered together and went to the cemetery to put flowers on my parent's tomb. On the way we also stopped at another cemetery to put flowers on my husband's tomb and there is an empty place beside his grave... well, naturally that is...
And now for the food.... We wanted something "non-spicy" for our dinner and within a minute or two, our orders were taken... that shows we are still "not-so-fussy" ladies? hahahaaa...Here's what we have eaten with full satisfaction..... Four dishes for the six of us.... One of...
One year ago on this day we went for Vietnamese food on our birthday... this year we decided on chinese food and we went to our favourite restaurant Kok Thai for our scrumptious birthday dinner... We started off with our non stop chattering around the table... and by the food arrived, our tummies were...
I was "welcomed" to this world on this day, this month and needless to say, it has been more than 50 years ago... Now as I grow older (hopefully wiser too) ... and gaining so much life experiences that I could actually write a book, I have learn a lot and I know it can never be an ending...
From the gardens, we continued our "exploration" into the hotel lobby. Yes, it was an eye opener for us... how often do we go there? Never before until on a Thursday evening 20 November 2014... hahahaa...Not sure which part of the hotel we entered into.... not from the main lobby as far as I...
Andy went out to celebrate with his friends... he has not seen them for a long time and he sure wants to make full use of the time to catch up....So... where shall I go with Aaron? We too wanted to celebrate in our own way! hahahaa....Not wanting to be left out, both of us made a...
I Specially ordered this bouquet of flowers for someone Special on a Special occasion..... and we traveled for nearly two hours together...so worried about the flowers withering in the car.... thank goodness... they did not...they stayed faithfully till the very next morning....FOR....This bouquet of...
After the scrumptious lunch in Nibong Tebal, we proceeded on with our journey to Penang Island. For the first time, we took the New Bridge and it led us to Batu Maung... The toll that led us to the new bridge....Called The Sultan Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah or Penang Second Bridge as it is commonly...
Started the journey up north this time around noon and at the last minute, we decided to have our lunch in Nibong Tebal instead of Penang Island. We reached there around 1pm... just in time to join in the crowd for lunch..... From the toll we turned left to Nibong Tebal.... It has been few years ago...
My meal today consisted of a bit of this and that, in other words, we Malaysians would call it ... ROJAK! My friend and I wanted something light but we ended up something "heavy" instead... both of us have light tummies, we thought we won't be able to consume much... anyway, I am quite satisfied with...
