2011.02.27_The Pantry Cafe

( what a lovely couple...hhahhahaha)

I think, I have to confess that I was addicted to sing Karaoke even my close fren and family envy and complaint my recent hobby. I'm glad I able to meet some Karaoke's Kaki who have same taste with me. We can solo, duet, group even shout ( not singing) together, back up each other when we can't hit the high note .... It was enjoyable and this entertainment fees is afforable ( MYR15.00 to MYR20.00 plus drink and meal).
After 4 hours singing session, we dicided to have a drink before heading back to home. We went to a Maid cafés (メイドカフェ Meido kafe) which lacated at the same shopping mall. The decor theme is pink and white. It looks very "girlish". My fren commented it is a big barbie doll home. Everything is looks so gal... Many ppl pop in this restaurant bcoz of all these cosplay maid. They looks cute and adorable. Pls refer to photo lah....
The food and the drink is not this cafe main selling points. I won't comment to much on it. Anyhow, it's not a bad idea to experience this cafe atmosphere and Lolita's service.
Sue, a manga n anime hard core fan, u shld have a look on this cafe!!!

As I promised to write a review on "Black Swan" movie, the answer is NO. At the last minute, I only aware my close fren not able to buy Black Swan ticket, he bought another movie ticket. The movie I watched is disaster ( again)... I don't want to mention its movie title in my blog. Hence, pls accept my sincere but not humble apology.

2011.02.20_Jenjarom_DongSanTemple_Light Decor

On last Sunday, my schedule was fulled and packed. 11AM- Karaoke Session ( arggh ... again) I went to Red box with new friends. Some of them are very shy & seldom sing. This mean I can & almost conquered the mic!!! They more keen for food instead singing. The cost is reasonable : MYR 18++ including a free drink and buffet style foods along 3 hours singing duration.

At 2PM,we go and watched a rubbish movie. It was horrible。 It is the WORST movie i ever watched this year. Luckily, the movie tickets were FOC. If not, I will hate myself.

Then, after having our loving meal at Esquire Kitchen Special Noodles, around 5 PM, we are heading to Jenjarom ,DongSanTemple for CNY Light Decor, one and half hours driving distance. The location is at remote area. We have to turn n turn to find the place. One of my friends is devoted Buddhist, the way his pray is quite impressed. For the 1st sight, I assume he is kind of playboy kaki due to his hair style and attire stlyle. In fact, he is formal Buddihist Society President during his uni days. So unbelievable! I love all these small monks statues, they look cute. The light decor was superb plus the entrance fees is FOC. Even the parking area also FOC !!! We have a good time over there and laughing each other due to our poor photograph skills.

The minute I arrived home 12 midnite, I almost fainted and wish to lie on bed immediately.

P/S : Looking forward to watch " Black Swan " Movie this Saturday ;p

2011.02.19_Ricky OpenHouse_LokeLoke

Have u order a mobile steamboat truck ( loke loke) and parked in front ur front gate? I think the idea to call this shld be night market vendors to your own place is superb. It's very interesting compare with normal open house. Thanks, my badminton kaki, Ricky who just get married last year.This fellow invites me to join his family open house event. They are very generous n prepared many foods ( fried chicken, fried noodle, curry chicken,stuffing bean curd n etc), fruits(guava and watermelon),drinks ( brandy, chinese tea, whiskey, beer, soft drinks, mineral water, n etc) n etc....hahahah.. how many et cetera

Only 2 things i need to highlight on this great makan-makan feast: first, mobile steamboat as shown on above. We can order whatsoever u want to eat ( as long as stock still available) or DIY, choose the stick that attached with full of variety, we may select the food and dip into hot soup until cook. Voila, enjoy this mobile steamboat. In fact, the cost to hire mobile steamboat truck is not cheap at all: RM800 with limit food supply. Even if we eat at pasar malam, minimum charges for one stick is RM1.80. However this is the 1st time I ate " loke loke" ;p

Second, ice kacang boy was also been hired for this event. This little boy will make a delicious shaved ice dessert for us as per order. ( The true story is the caterer hire some part time secondary students as ice-kacang boy). The ice kacang boy told me he can earns RM50.oo for one night hard work. Not too bad for a teenage ;p

I think I'm the 1st who attend this function & I'm the lst who leave this event.

P/S: The sad thing happened as one of the host relative getting drunk , quarrel and fight !!! Stupid alcoholic!!!

2011.02.11_15_ Endless Events

LY, my petite colleague has invited us to her place for steamboat after work on Fri nite. Her place is so warm-hearted esp two little gals playing around. Indeed, LY invited so many ppl and we have to split into 4 groups take turns to enjoy our steamboat fiesta. LY bought different types of meatballs and fishballs which I couldn't name it. There is one "dark grey cement alike fish ball" looks dirty but nice to chew n eat ;p This gorgeous lady who manage to take photo with me was totally a stranger! She is LY's friend. I do not know her name up to now!!! LY is very creative, she wrapped the round table with cling film before pour all the ' lou shang' ingredients instead of using any plate. This definitely will enhance the enjoyment since we can "play" with it without any space limitation. Thz LY, hope that u will invite me next year.

After heavy dinner at LY's house. I went for Karaoke session in the day after morning. To killing time, I become self-obsess and self-snap-shoot while waiting our Malaysia's friends who never turn up on time. Overall, I have sang more than 25 songs from 10:30 AM till 1:30 PM. What a great achievement! For me, singing is a good way to release stress. My friend said the way I sing ballad can touch her bottom heart and make her intend to tear wow.... She said I must been badly hurt by someone. She said she can feel it lol... If u want to cry but can't make it, pls make arrangement with me for sing K slot.

In the evening, my current staying place got "open house" activity, many relatives and guests come to our place, unlimited foods and booze supplied. What a bustling night!

The day after open house nite, I attend a mini Uni Alumni Lunch at LY II place. Again, Mr.Facebook creater, thz for your wonderful social networking platform. After 2002 graduation, I never meet LY II and the rest even lost contact with all of them. My personal interest that like to view fren's fren's fren's photos in FB allow me to spot LY II. To try my luck, I send a message and self-intro to LY II. Initially, she couldn't identify me and reject my fren's adding invitation. After few PM, she knows who am I then we exchange our contact numbers. I was overwhelming when she invite me for this gathering. Anticipatively, most of the attendants did not recognize me and forgot my name or vise versa. One touching incident happen during this event, a little boy who name "sunny rain" stick n attach with me the moment we see each others. I was babysitting him for the whole gathering. This is the first time I meet him ( he is only 11 mths old) and he even lying then slept on my shoulder. The kind of father-and-son chemistry connection sparkling in my heart and I wish he is my son. I'm willing to spend all my life to love n care him. In real, this is impossible, hahaaha... C'est la vie ( hate to use this over-abuse verse but only c'est la vie able to describe my helplessness.) Dear LY II, thanks for the wonderful arrangement, hope u will invite me next year.
Moving forward, I brought my old gf (grandmum) for shopping on Valentine's Day. My cousin, SL also joined us. In shopping mall, I met one not-so-close badminton friend (Bad). The conversation is hilarious:

Bad: U bring ur mummy shopping ah?

Me : No lah, she is my grandmother.

Bad: U bring ur gf shopping together ah?

Me : No lah, she is my cousin.

Bad: How come? Where is ur gf?

Me : ... (pretending I'm busing n flee away from this inspector)

I have ordered a curry laksa which only costs us MYR 4.00. 2 big prawns, 1 piece of fried chicken, 1 piece fishcake, 1 piece bean curd, bean sprouts and noodle. So unbelievable! The only advise I could share is, the curry laksa owner should pour some chopped spring unions on top for decor. After long hours shopping time, grandma managed to buy what she needs from Ikano to The curve, from The Curve to The Tesco, then back to Ikano boutiques. We went to starbux to release our legs' muscle tension. She was very relaxing at coffee place. We spent couple hours at Stabux before we go to SL's home for dinner. SL's parents bought a yummy roasted chicken. I love steamed eggplant with some dried shallots dish! Again, we have a good fellowship on the dining table.

After shopping spree, I went to Klang to meet my old buddies the day after. As I overnight at Sri Damansara area, I need to send my grandmum return to Bkt Jalil ( 45 minutes driving distance) before heading to Klang (another 45 minutes distance). Even thought I'm tiring, Klang's buddies and I have a good time. We went to a strange restaurant aka lounge aka pub aka tea house aka live show pub. The owner split this tiny place into many functionalities. It looks weird. It sells anything from steak to Pan mee (Eupho Crafts). I ordered the Pan Mee. The bowl is big and nice but the foods just so-so...so normal

Before we return home, our friend brought us to visit a still under construction super-duber luxurious house. It likes a maze for us.

P/S: After 4 days non-stop jalan-jalan & makan-makan, my colleague said my eyes become half of my normal eyes' size. This means I'm extremely lack of sleep n rest ;p

2011.02.09_ Lou Shang Nite

After heavy lunch, I decided to follow twins to meet Ms Cleopatra. I thought we should have farewell dinner with Ms Cleo but she was end up to join movie. Can you imagine after long working hours, I need to drive to far far away place to watch a 10PM movie? Well, we have our dinner at Zanmai Sushi after 20 minutes queuing... Again, I have ordered Lou Shang dish. Compare with my lunch Lou Shang ingredients, the latter is much more healthier and tasty.

Bon voyage, Ms Cleo ;p

2011.02.09_ First Day Work

In response to Sue post, I have a great 1st working day after CNY.

In addition, someone paid this gorgeous lunch bill. We have ordered many foods included Lou Shang, a mixture of all marinated shredded coloured dry food.

While I'm posting this article, my colleague has booked my lunch time for another Lou Shang... What a tiresome non-stop feast ;p

My face damn oily and I hate to take photo with uniform!!!

2011.02.07_CNY

I believe most of the blogger will upload their Chinese New Year (CNY) celebration stories. My CNY is simple: eat, drink , receive ang pau (red envelope),visit relatives n meet those who only can meet once a year during CNY.

My chef ( my mum lah) is very conservative and less creative, every CNY meals menu is SAME:

Start from top left

1. Bitter gourd stuffing
2. Steamed fish
3. Meat ball vs fish ball soup
4. Roasted pork
5. Mixed veg
6. Sweet sour prawn
7. Beancurd stuffing
8. Stewed pork leg
9. Deep fried meaty spring roll
10. Stewed duck
11. 白斩鸡= white chopped chic ( steamed chicken)

Very boring meals, rite? Hope the chef can prepare more exciting meals...

Some of my family relatives are super duber superstitious... but I need to respect their belief...all is red red red...FYI, a little fly was eating on the pinky cake when I snapped shoot the photo...The day after, someone told me the pinky is delicious....

My sis luv CNY decor, pls enjoy her hardwork. Again, all is red red red...

Hereby, I wish whoever read this blog have a good starting Rabbit year : be intelligent and smart as Bugs Bunny

2011.01.23_Anti Social Behavior

Since our fren, Ms K returned and visits us, we have a simple gathering. The main reason I have attended this fellowship is to grab my ordered goods. Ms K was complaining me that I have endless purchase from formal wear to sandal, her family also questioning her why she needs to bring such goodies even we may get it at Malaysia. Well, I think this is the last order I able to make. Ms K, thz 4 everything n I shall never request anything from u.

To my best knowledge, “anti social behavior (ASB)” in UK means those, majority are teenagers have issue with community such as vandalism, bullying, neighborhood disturbance n etc. After this so called fellowship, I shall re-define ASB term. All of the fellows attend this tea time session were extremely busy with finger exercise! No doubt we are sitting together but everyone is focusing on his/her IT gadget. It seems like I’m the only one who do speak human language but not typing. Am I having generation gap with current trend? Shall I force myself to own any IT stuffs so that I can speak IT language too? Frankly, I do love IT products. However, current IT goods users is too much and very irritating. U may press ur little finger on little button n “touch” the screen when u alone. Pls respect others when u are encounter living creature esp homo sapiens. Am I too old and start grumbling n complaining recent habitats’ life style? The answer is "YES"....

Verbal communication is a hard lesson for youngster nowadays. I have met a young girl (24 yrs old who shall be called adult) can’t talk fluently when we speak face to face. In cyber world: MSN messenger & FB-ing, she is such a charming, chatty, humorous and “eloquent” lady. In contrast, she was stutter and can’t pronoun properly in real world. What a disappointed encounter? At the end, she only can be my cyber-fren.

Individualism is not a rare term for us even I prefer to practice and become an individualist. I won’t allow myself addicted on IT thingy and grow to be the next annoying man.
