For dinner on Saturday evening we went to a Thai coffeeshop called Sabay in Bercham. However I did not take any pictures because most of the food have been posted up here in my blog before. (In actual fact, we were too hungry that I have forgotten all about it till much later) Hungry stomachs...
The very first morning they arrived, we had two breakfasts before noon... As soon as my sons arrived, we landed in Ming Court Dim Sum at 6.30am for the first round of food... I was also hungry at that time, surprisingly.... (without even brushing my teeth yet!)... ahhhhhhhhhhh.... With the blurry face...
It was raining very heavily in the middle of the night, thunder and lightning were looming above my area... and I couldn't sleep well. Kept waking up to the sounds of thunder and I prayed for journey mercies for my kids who were traveling back late by bus. Their journey took almost 8 hours to reach Ipoh...
Morning breaks into a cloudy morning here in Ipoh. Today marks the national mourning day for Malaysia and a minute silence is respected in a graceful and solemn manner. As we were watching the live telecast on TV3 news, my heart felt a pang of sadness and I quickly walked out from the meeting room. It is...
Every new day we start off our day with a good meal... but not every time the food tastes good. I was told by one of my FB friends that the fish noodles in this shop tasted not bad. I won't be naming the shop because the food disappointed not only me but also my friends as well....
A very heavy downpour this evening... some roads were flooded when I drove home from work this evening... When it rains, it pours in Ipoh... I guess from now on, no more haze and dry spell till end of year.It was still raining when I started to drive home, it took me more than fifteen minutes to reach my...
On a hot sunny day we went out for lunch in Lok Wei Kui coffeeshop which is located at the corner, just opposite Kamdar Textile along Jalan Jln Mustapha A Al-Bakri also known as Clare Street. This shop has been around ever since I was a teenager or even before ... ie. more than 50 years ago.... very...
Mention Ipoh and one will only think the four letter word starting with F... Yes, F-O-O-D! And as I browsed through my folder a moment ago, there are "odds-n-ends" photos... meaning one picture here and one picture another few days later and the list goes on.Compile them together and it becomes...
I want to thank you Joanna Chia from Serendipity for this wonderful gift she has given me... An excerpt from her blog....It was a lazy Saturday afternoon when my mother took out an old fashion magazine, and much to my fascination tore out a colourful glossy page. Her hands worked meticulously,...
We reached Ipoh around 6pm, rested for an hour or so before we adjourned for our dinner. My friend wanted to go to our "old place" (loe tei fong) in Ipoh Garden. Yes, we gathered at Gourmet Square for our light dinner.... It is our old place because we first started to come by here during the...
Time to go and buy some kompiah to take home to Ipoh and Kuala Lumpur. We were told to come here to get the best kompiah. (or is it pronounced as kompiang?) There and then the workers were preparing kompiah... fresh from the oven..Hot and Nice!This is the place as told by the locals while we were having...
After our lunch, we went to "Tai Pak Kung San" ... my friend wanted to go there to look see look see... The blind seems to lead the blind... the four of us did not know the way, just follow the sign board and somehow after some turnings, we managed to find it... LOL... Souvenir shop...One of us...
The next morning we set out from Ipoh around 11am for a day trip to Sitiawan. It has been more than a year or two since we last ventured out to this coastal town in Perak. It took me more than one hour drive to reach Kampong Koh and we chose Ah Pek Yeh Loi Heong restaurant for our lunch.Angry Bird goes...

Nowadays I never do much shopping except for groceries... shopping in this sense means buying something "vain" for myself... hahahaa... I was thinking that since I am going to retire in another six months time, I do not need working clothes anymore. My cupboard is full of them and it is such a waste...
There are days that I do not have "invitations" to home-cooked food nor do I cook anything for myself. I also don't like to eat out during weekdays, I prefer to buy back food and eat at my own leisure and pleasure.Here is one meal that I would not mind buying back to eat after work. The shop is...
My eyes sparkled at the pictures which my friend, May Tan, posted up recently in her Facebook and they got me smitten... She used to tell me that whenever food is the topic, my eyes will sparkle! hahahaa.. That is her way of describing my passion for food. Am I really that obvious? In...
