Faye Wong

 

Without a doubt, I am looking forward to the upcoming Faye Wong's concert at Bukit Jalil. The first and last time I saw her in concert was back in 1998 or 1999 with my brother. Stellar performance by her of course. 

Rain or shine, I will definitely go to her concert this year and I hope that she don't cancel on us fans in Malaysia.

Keeping my fingers crossed that I will manage to purchase the tickets... on my birthday.. it's a sign of good luck perhaps ? Faye Wong I love you always and forever~

Playground of dreams

 

This photo was taken last night at a playground in Ara Damansara. I was there with family to celebrate Nic's 9th BBQ birthday party. I've been itching for a BBQ party for a while but now can tumpang gembira.

Why work ?

This morning, our colleague Ms CY post us a question. "Have you guys ever thought why we have to work? Who came up with this stupid rule? And why?". It got the rest of us thinking (the best we could seeing that it's 8 plus on a Tuesday morning).

Why can't we just do whatever the fuck we wanted? Who is to say "NO" to you for jerking off in the comfort of your own home the whole day? Why? Why? Why? Why can't I just stay home and play Crime City in FB? Who came up with the idea of earning in order to spend and to own ? I know I will not have the opportunity to meet this person as he/she is long gone.

Being a Malaysian, we soon put this question to the back of our mind. Out of sight, out of mind.

 

~Food for thought~

Mille Crepe

I've been introduced to Mille Crepe recently and love it. I know I'm not supposed to write about food but I love food to a fault. I can't help it and I blame the mole above my mouth for it. It crave for tasty food all the time. Recently we went food hunting again, this time 14 of us. 11 went straight to PD for a day of fun activites; ATV, Go-Kart, Buggy and stuff (i think!) and 1 went back to town as he was too lazy to join us in Malacca. Me being the lazy one went straight to Malacca for some relaxing time and food!!!!

I'll cut to the chase. This time around I'm gonna share my new found love for Nadeje, located at Dataran Pahlawan. This place was introduced by Ms FN, another die hard foodie or should I call her the Dessert Queen.

Cappuccino

 

Heavenly french vanilla mille crepe

The drive there was worth it and a good way to end our makan-makan journey to the south. Will be back again when the cravings start. But in the meantime, order from Humble Beginnings in KL (yumz!) 

My new love

July is considered a good month for me so far. My car is finally here after commuting on the train for a month. I had to wake up extra early (which i hate..) and sometimes stand for 30 mins before reaching my desired destination.

 

Say hello to my darling Fofi (Ford Fiesta).  I now christened you Mother Theresa because of your colour and innocence....hehe...I love you..

Random Blah til something Good comes up

My good friend Mr KB commented that my blog is getting boring and he will not read it anymore. Boohoo... he said that it's turning into a food blog and there are aplenty out there. I agree with him. And he said that my dad is a food blogger already. There's no need for 2 food bloggers in the house. Once again I agree with him.

What would be considered an interesting blog or blogpost? My everyday life? But it's not interesting to begin with.. I go to work (late most of the time...hate the traffic) but thank God that I've sold my car (manual) and I am now car-less...it got worst coz the commute is longer and I hate those nosy muthafuckers riding the train with me. Haven't they seen a human being with red hair before? It's not like I have 2 heads or I have a head full of snakes like Medusa.

At times, I do miss my lovely Myvi coz it's my first ever car and my baby is gone forever... 5 years of service. Ahhh! All those fond memories of shifting gears every few seconds during morning traffic, the aching of the heel due to too much exertion while stepping on the clutch and the battle of keeping the car balanced uphill and etc...

Veg Fish Farm 2 Restaurant, Hulu Langat..see it to believe it~

Last Saturday, we went food hunting again! Destination? Hulu Langat :) Sounds far? Not really. Why? Coz I was not the one driving. *cheeky monkey mode on* Anyway, the place was introduced by Ms FN by her mom who is a big fan of the place. If possible, I think she wanna eat there every other day.

This time the makanz gang consists of me, Mr Hubs, Ms FN, Ms JL, Ms TEL and Mr LSY (disclaimer : he's not the owner of LSY Claypot). If you ask me again how to get there, well, I have no fucking idea. All I know is that it's located further down from Ampang Lookout Point.

 

We were seated on raised platform that sits on top of the man made fish pond. Don't feel too secure but we did not fall throughout dinner and thus alive to blog about this place.

 

The cutlery in case if you don't know

More pic of the restaurant

 

Our table number just in case if you're curious to know how they differentiate between each table by the fish pond

 

Oh la la Grilled Squid..our personal favorite...Ika-licious

 

The rice - staple food for Asian

 

Tom Yam Seafood - not bad, smells good but Nong & Jimmy's better in my humble opinion

 

Sambal Petai Prawn - the cause of flies swarming around our table throughout dinner and it's the busiest dinner ever with hand swapping from all different trying to get rid of ze pest

 

Some sorta Kerabu. I am not too sure as I did not pay attention to Ms FN when she ordered the food. And silly 'ol me forgot to keep the receipt as a reference. 

 

Tempura Sawi (if my memory serve me right) - the winner as it convert Ms JL into a herbivor that wonderful night

 

Salted Grill Fish - super fresh, super delicious, super super like by all of us

 

The hairiest cockles I have ever seen. Tastier than the normal seahum. According to my dad, it's Japanese cockles. I'm not sure as I'm not a cockles connoisseur.

Overall the food's good, fresh and worth the journey. The final stretch of road to this quaint restaurant is a bit scary for some as the road down is quite steep. A word of caution, don't drive a modified lowered car and your old tin can car there or you'll regret big time. You might be able to reach the destination but you might not be able to climb back up the hill. 

Go early or you'll end up having to wait for a table. We were very surprised to that a hidden gem of a restaurant as this has so many patrons. There is no visible sign that a restaurant nests around the area. Once you've missed the turning, you'll have to make a dangerous U-turn at the foot of Ampang Lookout Point to get back to the right track.
