Fish noodle

There we go! 2nd visit to this curry fish noodle for the week! I mentioned my cousin came back from Taiwan last night. When I was in Taiwan, I asked her whether she tried this before, she said she wouldn't have a chance to eat breakfast outside when she is in KK coz mum or aunt will always prepare breakfast for us. We are very lucky kids that 3 meals are served everyday! Never miss!

Back to the fish noodle. This is a placed introduced by my friend, Ah Kiun. Fish noodle as in the noodle is made of fish paste, they served it dry, soup or curry soup. Apparently curry soup is the most popular dishes there. It will be sold out by 9am on the weekends. So this soup is very suitable for early birds or hung over.


Its a stall in a kopitiam called Wing Wah in Damai Phase 1. They are very busy during the weekends, prepare to wait for table, noodle and bill. 


Curry soup is my favorite. I like everything that taste spicy. Clear broth/soup for me is too plain. The deep fried wonton is another win for this soup! 


This was the very first visit to the shop, we got takeaway as the shop was too full and we are home girls. This is dry fish noodle that serve with bowl of soup.


This is RM8 each, its very small portion, if ur a big eater, u might have to get 'jia liao'.

Table calendar + diary

My cousin, Amy, came back from Taiwan for Chinese New Year holiday. She is one generous girl or lady, always get us something when she comes back. I got this cute table calendar with diary. Its a new and special combination: table calendar + diary. Never thought of that but very unique.







Thank you Amy but I am not really good in using dairy to record or marking on my calendar. However, I will appreciate this and fully utilise it!

Lady Bon Bon

Lady Bon Bon is the one of the best cake shop in town. Its my third visits to Lady Bon Bon. I am very impressed with the consistency they maintain.


I bought 10 pcs sliced cakes and made them into a cake! This was my sister's birthday cake! She was so happy to see this! All the sliced cakes are RM7.90 each. They serve more than 10 flavors.


Bon Bon-Misu which is tiramisu


This is something strawberry! I never get along with strawberry so I can't make any comment on this. 


 This is my favorite Mr Hazel. Its pretty much hazelnut triangle. I love the crunchy bit at the bottom of the cake. Not forget to mention that the sweetness of their cakes are just right for me.


 Another favorite of mine. I forgot the name, its something Cowboy. Very nice texture!

持之於恆

達恆,師父給我的法名。師父說做什麼事情都要有恆心,師父應該知道我是一個沒有恆心的人吧!所以給了我這個法名,要我提醒自己,凡事都要持之於恆!

我決定了,我要做一件事情!讓自己的生活過得充實,不需要出人頭地,做一個不要給別人帶來麻煩的人就很好了!做一個讓父母不擔心的孩子!加油吧!

Nando's

It was my day out with my sister!

Brekky at McD at Sulaiman --> shopping at 1 Borneo ---> Lunch at Nando's

Main point is Nando's. Its been opened for quite a while now but it was overcrowded as its new and who doesn't like chicken? Which ads with the slogan as "if you don't like chicken, there is really something wrong with you". I love Nando's chicken. I love the chicken paella rice they serve in Perth, I love Nando's marinade.

Ok, back to my Nando's story. We went there around 1pm, wasn't too crowded for Public Holiday lunch. I expected to wait for seat and meal but they didn't happen at all. Must be my lucky day. I wasn't too hungry so I choose something light. Salad it is! Portugese Salad with the options to top with peri-peri chicken breast or not. Of course I got it with chicken, thats the whole point to eat in Nando's.


Menu



The setup in KK is different from Perth. Perth is more like a takeaway place and self serve but KK is like a dining restaurant. 


Portugese salad with peri-peri chicken breast. I had it mild. Nice presentation, again I didn't expect to be this nice. Very fresh and crisp salad. However, I did mention few times that no onion, it still came with onion. This costs RM17.60 ++


Chicken wings RM13 ++ 
My sister never say NO to chicken wings. We had them HOT, OMG, they are really hot! But honestly, there is no wow factor in these wings. Overpriced as well. 




My sis had this Strips with rice for RM9.90 ++ 
She reckon it was good and she proved it too. She finished all the rice. 


We were happy with our lunch at Nando's! Definitely will go back again!

My little collection: Eclipse minty boxes

Gonna share my little collection today! I love this minty, Eclipse! I almost have them everyday when I was in Perth. It used to be my morning vitamin when I drove to work at 4.30am.


 

This is the series I got in HK in end of May last year when I came back from Italy.
This is a complete series. Took me a while to finish all the minties as I dont like some flavors.





 This series is not completed. I got in HK as well. This featured Sport B for xmas 2012.



These last two are flavors cant be found in KK. The top orange is orange flavor, my friend got it for me from Taiwan. The bottom green one is apple flavor. It has been my favorite ever since I bought it. It can be found in HK and Taiwan. So whenever I go to HK i will buy at least 4 of this back to KK. 

There is more coming back from Taiwan tomorrow! Cant wait!!

Grillz Kitchen

This is my second visit to Grillz Kitchen at Kepayan Point. First impression was good but tonight it was a disappointment.

We were a huge gang of 13 to celebrate Jean's birthday. It was quite crowded when we got there. Reasons being were its sunday night, its affordable meals and it serves pork!

I ordered Pork Zilla burger, it wasnt as nice as the first time. It was a stupid idea to put coleslaw on the plate next to the burger, my burger bun was soaking wet. Yiakky! The menu describe ingredients of the burger included caramelized onion but there was fresh onion in the burger. My expectation for burger is high due to my special background and personal experience.

We didn't get our meals all at the same time. The pasta came out first then followed by chicken after 15 mins or so, then pizza and burger after 30mins and the last order came after 1 hr from the first order. The stations are not coordinating or someone cant read the ticket at the window. It happened to all the table tonight. But I gotta say something about the place, their menu is picture perfect! We did have hard time to decide what to order by looking at the pics on the menu.


Grilled Sir Loin Steak! Good morning, Sir Loin! LOL


My Pork Zilla burger with coleslaw and fries. 


Look at all the water from coleslaw! It spoiled my burger terribly!!
