Lunch @ Restoran Mei Jing, Lukut

1 Comment

While making our way to Port Dickson during the past weekend, I suggested to Alex why not we drop by Lukut (a small town before PD) for our lunch. I barely have any idea which restaurant should we go. Therefore we just choose randomly. Spotted this restaurant along the main road, as the signboard of the restaurant name was quite visible. (Hmm….I think I did saw someone blogged about this restaurant.)

a double storey shop. at first floor is with air condition.

Their menu consists of many pages attached with photos and nicely categorized.

Oyster Omelet – RM16

The oysters are pretty visible..unlike some places serving the micro oysters which is countable. Taste wise….nothing surprising.

Belacan Paku Pakis (Wild Fern Shoots) – RM8 (recommended)

My favorite dish after all…Its crunchy and flavorful. Don’t worry…it ain’t too spicy though.

Fried Mantis Prawn with Salted Egg – RM16

Its crispy. However I felt its a lil too dry and insufficient salted egg =_=

Guinness Stout Beer Chicken Wing – RM12 (recommended)

I still able recap the taste of it. Crispy skin coated with ‘guinness stout beer’ with tender and juicy meat. Yummmmyinggg all the way!

Finally I got myself a sleeve case. Oppss…not for myself. Its for Whitey*.

I’m feeling much happier than her. At least a protection to her lor…I’m now less worried when carrying it. She has been naked for more than a month ler..(censored).

When I got this Paul Frank Sleeve Case, I was going gaga over it. And even bragged about it. Took a photo and MMS it to Alex. Then I called Alex right after I press the ‘send’.

Mel : Did you receive the MMS which I’ve just sent to you?

Alex : No ler…what is it about?

Mel : =_=   (so slow want). Never mind lar… just see it after you received it.

………………THE NEXT MORNING……………………

Alex : Saw your MMS liao ler….so cute…I knew it!! Knew you would prefer something like that de lor….. Look at the mouth…just like you lahh….

Mel : (duhh….jahat sungguh suami aku ni) @_@

nicely packed in the clear box

masih ada bau kedai ^^

even the zip is nice too….

the inner material is soft & smooth…worth the price I paid!

This is a sleeve case. However Whitey claimed as her sleeping bag…See! Showing me that she’s sleeping summore…..

By the way…my mouth do look like that meh? May be one of these day I shall try to pose like that and see whether it matches or not. =_=

I am now in the process of editing the photos. Here, I would like to show you a preview. Please enlighten me if the outcome and the way I am editing is fine. In a way that, the colors and so on…..will the colors look dull?

HAPPY FULLMOON TO PRINCESS ALYSHA!

Duanwu Festival (端午节)

2 Comments

Duanwu Festival (端午节) or Dragon Boat Festival falls on 5th day of the 5th month of the lunar calendar which was yesterday.

The story behind these; “The Duanwu Festival is believed to have originated in ancient China. A number of theories exist about its origins as a number of folk traditions and explanatory myths are connected to its observance. Today the best known of these relates to the suicide in 278 BCE of Qu Yuan, poet and statesman of the Chu kingdom during the Warring States period.”

On this day; the Chinese will usually celebrate it with the present of rice dumplings. You can easily buy it or make it. I’m not making it because it involves many steps. In order to save the hassle, we just purchase them.

Here; I have 2 different types of rice dumplings. Actually different dialect, you may find their rice dumplings taste different. Even the wrapping method may be different as well.

Traditional Chinese Rice Dumpling

(stuffed with mung beans, pork, black mushroom, salted duck egg, chestnut)

Alkaline Dumpling with Red Bean Filling

Jianshui zong (碱水粽): Meaning “alkaline water zong”, these are typically eaten as a dessert rather than as a main meal. The glutinous rice is treated with lye water (aqueous sodium carbonate), or potassium carbonate giving them their distinctive yellow color. Jianshui zong typically contain either no filling or are filled with a sweet mixture, such as sweet bean paste.  They are often eaten with sugar or light syrup.

Hi Tea @ SELERA Coffee House, Klana Resort Seremban

In Seremban, there isn’t much choice or places to enjoy a decent hi-tea buffet. Normally we would either go to Klana Resort Seremban or Royale Bintang Seremban. Marcus’s birthday falls on 6th June, therefore we decided to celebrate his birthday a day earlier. In order to avoid any disappointment, we made our reservation with SELERA Coffee House.  We arrived there at about 12.30pm.

I am having butterflies in stomach now. 1 more day to go……

My schoolmate has now upgraded to be a MUMMY! She asked me do to her a favor. To attend her baby shower and also to be the photographer of the lil party. I was like….HUH & HAH….Not that I am humble..but being just an amateur photographer. and shoot for pleasure…I just worry if I couldn’t produce the best outcome. “please don’t put too high expectation on me ya”…However without much hesitation I promised her. Though she told me; “take it easy..just shoot as usual..I have faith on you”. *take a deep breath*…Hopefully my inspirations won’t be zero tomorrow.

Korean, Music Library

I am now listening to…”2AM Saint o’clock”

6 Comments

My recent music album is “2AM Saint o’clock”.

2AM is a South Korean four-member ballad boy band. Apparently, 2AM is one of the two subgroups branched out from the eleven-member boy band One Day, the other being 2PM. <—- Hahaha…it sounds quite funny.

I came to know about this group over our local radio station which promoting them sometime this month. Searched their hit song from youtube. And my favorite song would be “전활 받지 않는 너에게” (You Wouldn’t Answer My Calls).

During the weekend, I took the initiative to buy their first album Saint o’Clock.

There are a total of 11 songs in an album. Alright….I started to craze about these Korean boy band now…. I told Alex; their songs are so nice…I felt so touched by their songs…

Alex replied (jealous kut); you don’t understand a single word also..how can you claimed its nice….

I answered; it doesn’t matter ma…. as long it sounded nice…… ^^

Worth the buy!! And they look quite handsome also right?? …..

They sincerely care??

I had a chat with friend A and friend B through MSN, which I did occasionally.

Unfortunately…they no longer started with “Hey..how are you doing?”..

Instead the first question that I was addressed; “So, any news from your belly?? Or, any good news from you??”

I then replied; don’t you have any better question to ask rather than each time we chat also you’ll be asking me the same old question. She replied; ‘care for you ma’…. (sorry to say, this question really annoys me and got me frustrated). It wouldn’t be nice if I say straight to her face right. I would rather her ‘care for you’ turn into something that sounds nicer…as in ‘how are you recently’? Shall we plan for a meet up?……

Trying to get myself used to it…not to put any pressure to myself either. I knew these questions would never end.

When you are in a relationship, people would be asking, “When will you be getting married?”

When you are then married, people would be asking, “When are you going to plan to have a family/ child?”

When you already have your first child, people will still be asking, “When are you planning to have your second baby?”

All these are claimed under “I care for you policy”!!!

Do you think IKEA stuff worth the buy??

Now its almost the time to furnish. Trying to get some ideas from magazines. Its all about creativity. Somehow I am doubting my creativity. =_=

Playing a role as part of the owner is important. I’m quite blank at this stage. Where am I suppose to begin? Looking through IKEA stuff online….picked some stuff that I like…. IKEA stuffs always inspired me. Not only the designers are creative, I also like that its simple yet modern looking feel. Many people been telling me that IKEA stuff are not worth the buy. Its expensive and not lasting(in term of quality I guess). But yet I still see IKEA as a crowd place. Especially during the weekends.

I spared some time and copied some pictures from IKEA online.

Kungfu Panda TUMBO

7 Comments

Another item added into my collection.

My recent movie on last Saturday was Fast and Furious 5 together with Alex. And also Marcus. Yea right…I know we were quite far behind from the first day of screening. Just want to conclude that it was an awesome movie which don’t get you bored….in fact…every episodes are equally good! Worth watching…Marcus said, he is going to buy the original DVD once it arrives here.

Usually we watches movie on Saturdays at TGV. And also not forgetting the sodas, chips or popcorn while watching it. While we were queuing to make our purchase, I saw this  Kungfu Panda TUMBO displayed at the counter. I was so excited as in jumping for joy seeing it. I felt that its cute and special. A drink cup and a popcorn cup attached together, where you can all detach them. I insisted Alex to purchase it!! He replied with; OMG!! you are just the same like a ‘BIG KID’. Duhh…’big kid’ term for me?? Doesn’t matter anyway… *GRIN*

Nah…Kungfu Panda 2 movie is not showing yet.  Purchased this Kungfu Panda TUMBO set of drink & popcorn for RM14.90. In future I can fill it with chips & soda while watching movie at home….. weeeeee….
