找人一起吃顿晚饭，却还是独自一个人吃。
想找人去看一场电影，却自己在排队买戏票。
想找人聊聊天讲讲话，却还是独自去写日记。
想找人去café 泡一泡，却自己在café 喝咖啡。
伤心难过时，无人倾诉，唯有躲在星球里。
生气委屈时，无处发泄，只好到宇宙游荡。
感慨无奈时，无法释怀，默默等流星掠过。
当我需要朋友的时候，我的朋友怎么都消失无影？
我禁不住问自己 —— 有一辈子的朋友吗？

Studio Photo at Romantic Bridal House
Romantic Bridal House – Studio Photo
Wedding gown fitting at Romantic Bridal for our Studio photos yesterday. Me, Hong Hong and XVee. The other day at One Utama, we passed by the wedding fair at the concourse and saw this eye-catching photos from Romantic Bridal. Hence, we sat down and talked a little bout the wedding packages (as Hong Hong is gonna be married someday end of the year).
We happily talked about the packages, until suddenly XVee blurp out that she wanted all three of us to take studio photos. We did it like 10 years ago, and now she wants to do it again. According to the salesgirl, Kim, we are able to wear any gown available at Romantic Bridal except those new gowns. Moreover, it’s said to be digitally printed with wordings and artwork during the fair.We told them "Yeah, your package is very attractive and not bad and we 3 are interested. But we will only sign-up this promotional package after we go to your studio and check out the gowns!!" As usual they said, "Can, but the promotion is only for today/the fair (blah blah)". We simply knod out heads and off we go pay for the deposit.
Yesterday, our visit to Romantic Bridal disappoints us. We were unable to get agreement because it seems suddenly like everything is different from what’s said in the fair. Grace was the sales person attended to us ..she ain't that friendly, but i don't blame her at first, cause maybe it’s late at night and she might be already very tired to serve another 3 customers. We went through the invoice one more time before we proceeded with the gown fitting. Here comes the argument about photos qualities and pricing and photo size. Everything said is different from said at the fair. Nope.. they have nothing wrong, it’s our mistake. We SHOULD have written every detail they spoke to us at the fair. And make them sign black and white in front of us. One word for brides signing packages from Romantic, details to be written on paper to ensure no argument and disappointment later on.
Next, we move on to choose our gown and theme. Themed photos do not need to choose gown as they are fixed already. We have 4 designs all together. I took one theme ‘Crystal’ and three other gowns to be choose separately. All those that we are allowed to try are so old and yellowish, and so not nice. There is nothing for us to choose as there is only 2 cupboards. Then we mingle around the VIP area, and they told us that those gowns are new, and need to add money if we intend to wear them.
After a few trying we still can't choose even one which we really like. As per them, those more beautiful gowns are all new and no one wears them before. Those gowns cost extra RM300-500. We refuse to pay for the extra; they said fine and served us with really lousy black face. The salesgirl did not look too friendly when we asked to try out more dresses and she wasn't too "service-oriented" either.
I was rather paranoid that the whole process is a disappointing one, but ended up, it's good fun, especially when you have your chi mui’s around. Having 3 girls and 2 assistant in a changing room, it’s packed and fun!
I think for all the future brides out there who plan to sign up for Romantic Bridal House, you just need to have a clear mind of what you really want to have at the end of day. Of coz, there are some unexpected "surprises", but so long as it sticks to your budget, then it's fine.
I still continue to pray for a smooth and blissful process with them till the day we collect our photo albums.

给俊豪
给俊豪，
在特别的日子里，总会想起你。
每次到了这个时候，我就特别紧张。
紧张我该怎么把卡交到你的手上。
以往，我都把卡片或礼物放到别人家门口。
之前， 我以为你家对面是你家。
没想到,去年开始,通过朋友说起,才知道原来一直以来我都送错地方了。
真笨啊！
没什么的。。真的没什么的。。
不必感到负担哦。。
只是想把我的想法表达出来而已。
这样，以后当我的孙子问起我的时候，起码我可以对他们说我不曾遗憾啊。
喜欢你的笑。 喜欢你灿烂的笑。
在此祝福你每天快乐，时时幸福。
~情人节快乐~
喜欢你微笑的我

Love Is In The Air ~ ~
Thanks to Hong Hong, I celebrated the Valentine’s day with her together with her BF. Ya ya… I know… I know I’m a big big bulb la… but Hong Hong kept insist that I follow her for dinner that nite lor. Not people purposely want be bulb one la..
Waited at her house at 6pm. Mingle around the house, then, digged out rummy to play. We played two-leg rummy. You don’t know how to play leh. Come come.. I teach you all. One player conquer two sets of rummy. So, each person has to switch 2 places. We played switch here switch there lor. Like this become two-leg rummy liow lor! Fun to play, somemore can train your speed. Hehehe…
We actually don’t want to be so wuliao one lor.. all because Hong Hong’s bf la.. Kelvin. He was an hour later than the planned time. As usual, men’s reasons are traffic jam… and… traffic jam lor! Inside the car, he terus kena shoot by both of us.
At first, we planned to go Korean BBQ Pork, but the queue was so long, hence we jumped to Fish Shop. Good place… cause no need to queue ma…
Their menu for that night was…..
New York FIsh and Chips
Fish and Chips.
Notice the difference.... THE FLAG only!!!
You can either choose one couple or two couple ONLY. Three person… how?? After all the discussion and arguments, we finally end up with 2 couple ( 4 pax dinner). 3 pax ordering 4 pax food equals to WASTE OF FOOD lor~ Already we have extra food on the table, and then only did Kelvin told us that actually he already had quite a heavy dinner before he fetched us! See… wtf….
Hong Hong gave a brand new Sony Ericson HP to Kelvin. Kelvin so happy; ask him pose for photo also kong kong liow~
After our dinner, we shop around and jalan- jalan. Pass by Speedy and got ourselves our favourite singer album. Hong Hong – her Jacky Cheung concert CD and my RICHIE REN Love and Beloved DVD!! Wow… fantastic memories of the concert again tumbled into my head. My 小齐so man during the concert you know. Miss the concert last year? Don’t worry…. Get into your car, go to the nearest CD shop, don’t go to pasar malam you know. Grab the Richie Ren Love and Beloved DVD home…. It’s a value of money… only RM29.90.
Don’t wanna waste your money… come over to my house, we watched together. Hehehe~
Get back to Hong Hong’s home at around … er.. Opss…I don’t remember the time.
Little Boy Boy~
We started to play rummy again – this time with Kelvin and Hong Hong’s brother. Middle of our game, suddenly Kelvin invited his cousin to yumcha at Station One. Get off the chair and off we head to Station One. Wah~ there got many people lor… full. Luckily got place to sit, no need to wait. Had a drink there and talk grandfather stories. I said grandfather stories because it was Kelvin’s cousin – Eddie talking those grandfather stories. Hahaha.. shouldn’t have wrote bad things about people here. Moreover this is only the first time we met each other. :P
That’s how I end my Valentine’s Day on Saturday.

大喜事 The Wedding Game
Just back from watching the movie ” The Wedding Game” with Hong Hong and her bf. I was a little late and missed a couple of minutes, but came into the cinema just in time to see Jack’s in the bathroom scene~
I was having dinner with Weifen and her 2 colleagues ( Ah Dee and Jerry) at Bukit Tinggi Aeon earlier. We had Japanese food and the food was great. After my dinner, I rushed back to BBK Jusco for the movie. Was late and wouldn’t want my two friends to wait for me outside the cinema (cause they bought the tickets earlier), I told them to leave my ticket to the Baskin Robin counter. Thanks to the thin skinny man whom had helped me keep the ticket. If you saw a silly girl running from the carpark towards the escalator that day, don’t worry… you didn’t see wrong person, it’s me!
The movie certainly is entertaining and would recommend you all. I’ll rate it 4/5.
Several parts made me literally, LAUGH OUT LOUD. I remember a scene where Jack bump into Fann inside the toilet. He claimed that Fann’s shit is so smelly, and just couldn’t believe a pretty girl can shit out shits so smelly!! HaHahaha~Just couldn’t stop laughing in the cinema.
Brief storyline, Jack (Chistopher) and Vicki (Fann) were trying to pretend to be couple in order to get fame and money. They can then divide the money into two, where Vicki needed the money to help her dad paying the debts. However, their plan failed but they found their passion for each other later on. From hate to love. The Story line is nothing to our surprise but it sure sparks a lot of fun and laughter between this two couple in real life.
This is a song from The Wedding Game I found from Youtube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Io1SxgHQ8A
大喜事 - 我们的爱
Actually, there is another song that I also like. It was sung out during the scene when Jack was heartbroken and desperately looking for Vikki after the press conference where Vikki revealed the truth to the media and the public. Anyone knows the title of the song?
Overall, a great movie to watch~

My 正月初八 & 初九
初八- 我的第一天上班。早早，我们就把 [ 开工大吉 ] 贴在门前。经理把开工红包分给全部同事。 我们一整天都在摇摇摆摆….. 这样摇啊摇~ 就摇到午餐时间。 今年， 我们的annual dinner在金龙园。 在那里吃吃喝喝。Had a sumptuous lunch with my colleagues and bosses. 
Back to work at around 2.30pm. 我们继续摇摇摆摆， 车车大炮， 说说笑笑，然后 em ging em kok, the clock shows 5pm liow. Go back time~ Yeepie~
初九 – So difficult to wake up. Yesterday kept ping ping piang piang. Cannot sleep well also. Most of my colleagues all did not come to work today. The whole office sibeh quiet today…. No sound at all. Just a few people only. You look me… I look you. One word “ SIEN”. And now, sitting here in the storeroom and be a temporary store keeper. My colleague Ms. Khu did not come and now I’m in her place. Sitting here is worse, no people and nothing to do ( I dare not touch other people’s stuff la). Whole day sit down and look at those toolings, bolts and nuts. Felt so sleepy somemore. One find one person to chat with also don’t have. Somemore no PC, no internet connection here… nothing. Just barely sitting down here waiting for people to come and take the tools and hardware.

Gong Xi Fa Chai lo~
Happy Chinese New Year…. Gong Xi Fa Chai ~ ~ Yo Yo Yo….
新的一年，新的开始， 新的希望， 新的目标。
有一段时间没写我的blog了。 都是我不好，忙着这个，忙着那个。。。
没有啦。。 是借口啦。。。 其实是懒惰啦。。。 哈哈~
23/1/2009 （二八晚）我们就吃团圆饭了。提早两天做团圆饭因为我们年三十晚12点下午就得到LCCT机场准备飞到河内，越南。 说起团圆饭， 我还下手做两道菜肴呢。 第一道 ：嘻嘻哈哈大笑。 第二道：好事发大财. 今年的虾是和Hong Hong 买的。看一看照片。。 虾又大又多汁!
Look at those delicious big prawns… so yummy and delicious… fresh and juicy~
In order to not waste the big prawns (in case it goes bad the first time), I had already tried one week before, by using small and tiny prawns from Carrefour. Although my first attempt with small prawns doesn’t come out with crispy nestum, but on the 团圆饭day, it just turn out to be so good!
The second dish好事发大财… aiya… you look at the photos yourself la…. I’m just so proud of myself – look so presentable… and it taste good you know!
Eh… this photo really I cook one lor.. not I take photo from Imperial Restaurant one lor!!! Hehehehe~
Next, my Hanoi trip during the CNY. This will be on my next blog very soon. Wait till I 整理整理我的CNY mood先， then I will post it out.
Came back from Hanoi late at nite during 初四。 The next morning, cannot stand my dropping and messy eyelashes, went and ask help from XinVee. I did my eyelashes before I flew to Hanoi. Luckily, XVee will be at the shop around 10.30am. Went over to her shop, meet up with her and while waiting, chit chat with her customers and watched her working. Looking at XVee’s working, is an enjoyable thing. The way she works professionally, the way she treat her customers so friendly, the way she interact with her customers and her seriousness and patience in her work. So warm yet so professional.
Met with Hong Hong there too. She also went there to do her eyelashes. She looked fabulous with her new eyelashes. While doing our eyelashes there, we dose off talking about future. Hong Hong said she wants to learn nail art and eyelashes wor. And then, asked me to join them….I’m not skillful to do these art art thingie la… so I shook my head. Then… came another idea to ask me invest pulak! Then, more and more nonsense liow… then they wanted the whole building to be a beauty building… downstairs is for selling beautiful clothes, upstairs is for make up and nail art parlor and so on……
Three girls get together… what funny thing also can think out de lor!
Then at nite, we went over to XVee’s house to 拜年。As usual, talked about grandmother and grandfather stories. Chat about Hong Hong and Lean’s wedding plans at the end of the year. Later, off we go to the mahjong table and Rummy.Had a great nite there.
初六- went to Pavillion with Hong Hong, XVee, Mian and Winnie to 血拼. Err…. Don’t misunderstand lor…. is they all血拼lo…. Not me lor…!! Hehehe. Had our dinner at Ichiban Restaurant and bought cosmetics from M.A.C…. and then off we go and have our Hokkaido Gelato Ice-cream at MOF Japanese Sweets & Coffee.
Don’t ask me what I ate. I ordered a Red Bean Soup with Japanese 汤圆(as highly recommended by the chef….. on the menu), and it just taste nothing more than what my mum cooks. I’m not complaining, I’m just saying I ordered a “super-normal-nothing-special” dessert lor. Plus it's toooo sweet ler.
Macha Zen...Hokkaido red beans (just assuming the beans from Hokkaido) with Green Tea Japanese Gelato Ice Cream and Japanese Dumpling...
Hong Hong ordered a mango ice-cream with jelly and it not only look good but taste good too.
We took photos there, but it’s with Hong Hong. Want her to send me the photos??? 慢慢等啦。。 没年没月的啦！
哎呀。。。 我忘了说一个重要的主角了。。 是XVee’s little baby – Beverley! Ya… we took a 3 months old baby to Pavillion and her one cry can make the whole Pavillion shake lor! Hehehe… bringing a baby to shopping centre really takes lots of patience and…. and more patience lor! Pushing the baby cart is easy while she’s asleep, but when she’s awake… she only wants to 抱抱。No wonder got this song la “世上只有妈妈好~ ~”
初七- Last Sunday, we sat at home and waited for our relatives from KL to come over to our house. They all came around noon and my house so 热闹 that day. We only had this kind of gathering once in a year. Mingled and gambled until dinner time and had our dinner at Mun Siang Lo Restaurant at Klang Parade. That was my first 捞生in the Cow Year. We shouted when we lou sang, and toss yum seng like it’s a wedding dinner like that!
Hahaha… a bunch of crazy people. One pax very quiet, two person start to got noise out liow, three person start to crazy liow… and four person is DISCO already!!
Yeah~ Big Family~

快过年咯~~
我们的OFFICE每天都在听过年歌。 有MY FM 的啦， 988过年歌啦， M-Girls妹妹的啦。。。 都满热闹的。同事每次从银行回来，都带着一包包的红包。 这次， Public Bank 的红包是长方形的。一向来都是短型的， 这次改成长形的。
CIMB的就红红当当的。 Carrefour却是粉红色的。
虽说今年比较没那么景气，可是， shopping centre还是满满人潮的。 那里都要排队付钱。 上个星期去般年货， 个个的trolley都是满满的！
我们也不输人。买到一个trolley也不够放。 还特地跑回外面在拿多一辆 trolley呢。
今年啊，我们家大扫除一早就搞定了。 12月的时候， 就已经在分工合作了。 今年想早点完成任务。 这样才有足够的时间嘛， 不会太赶。
怎知，可能是太早了吧， 现在反而什么都不用做了。
洗洗刷刷， 买新衣服，布置客厅， 般年货，买拜神的料。。。 这些老早就做好了。现在反而不知要干什么了。每次听到同事说他们忙这儿，忙哪儿， 我反而好像。。。 没什么忙的耶。 也许是太闲空了， 反而好像很奇怪。
惠芬约我去她的家做饼干。 Baking耶。。。 我真的没有兴趣啦。 当时也是说说而已。怎知她当真，还买了一堆baking utensils and recipes 呢。这个星期六会去她那里‘搞’的。

结婚咯～~
玲凤和丽莲宣布结婚咯！！ 好开心哦。 另一边，又好舍不得哦。。。
我的朋友们，原本一个个都很靠近我的。
都住在我家附近， Berkeley, BBK, 和 Jln. Meru.
一个嫁到Taman Sentosa.
另一个却嫁到Teluk Pulai.
玲凤也将嫁到Teluk Pulai.
全部都是过港的。 让我忽然觉得寂寞空虚起来。
还好。。 丽莲呢。。。
她会嫁过来我这边。。 Berkeley town.
起码。。 还有她可以陪我在吧生市吃吃早餐，喝喝茶呢。
两个好友今年办婚礼耶。真的替她俩兴奋哦。。。 她们终于找到了她们的幸福。
找到了真爱。 找到了她们的快乐。即将踏入人生新的一个阶段。
往后的日子呢， 每当她说“我”， 便会意味着 “我和老公”。
每次和我们抱怨她的另一半，不再称他为“男友”而是“老公”。
生活中， 将会多了很多人。
忽然间， 男方的亲戚也突然变成她们的了。
无缘无故，要离开家人到别人的家去住了。
从此不能再那么依赖妈妈了。
任何事， 都好像不能自己“渣”主义了。
任何事， 都得跟老公或老公的家人商量。
在别人家，总不能再想以前那样随意了。
原本只有自己的爸爸妈妈，多了半边妈妈和爸爸，也得好好孝顺他们。
好好照顾他们， 好好伺候他们。
以一个感恩的心， 对待他们。
感谢他们把孩子养了那么大，
感谢他们为你抚养一个那么好的老公，
感谢他们把那么棒的孩子给了你，
也感谢他们的存在，
这样， 你才有机会答谢他们。
我相信， 我这两个朋友都会做的很好的。对吧~
一切的种种，都可以克服的。
因为，陪伴你们的，
不是别人，而是你们的幸福啊。
有他在，你会有无穷的勇气，
有他在，你会有无穷的信心，
有他在，你会有无穷的快乐，
有他在，你就有幸福。
我真心的祝贺你们俩。
有情人终成眷属，
但愿世上的人， 都像她们一样，
找到快乐，找到幸福。

懒懒的我~
我今天懒懒的，散散的，迷迷糊糊的像一只猫。
手头上是很多事情还没做完，
可就是提不起劲来。
就这样，
悠闲的度过一整天，
喝着巧克力还有翻看杂志。
满脑子想着这个周末要去哪儿血拼，手痒了起来。
盼着下个星期公布的花红， 心情起伏不定。
想着四月沙巴的旅行，嘴角都笑了。
想着他现在在干嘛呢，心跳加速了。
看到上司的位子空着，今天是我的天下噢！
（醒醒吧！快去做工！待会儿看到妳在咪咪笑！）

My New Hairstyle
Yeah~ finally have time to perm my hair.
Today whole day in office very free lo... nothing much to do. We decorated our office... hmm... finally our office got little Chinese New Year mood.
Tadaaa... My new hairstyle.
These are my fantastic colleugues which we have been together for more than 5 years... err... some even more than 8 years liow... hehehe
This year, our company received only a few Chinese New Year card. So quiet.... maybe because of the economic downturn. Hampers to my bosses also coming in less. I overheard my bosses said that this year, there will no be lucky draw for all of us. Sad~ ~ Don't know got bonus or not ~ ~

这首歌献给我喜欢的你~
好喜欢看你坦白的眼眸一片蔚蓝晴空 （我真的很喜欢看你笑的样子耶。。。）
四季还有夏和冬
谁说只能作朋友 （对啊。。 不止可以做朋友的嘛。。。我要比朋友多一点！～）
多希望和你同一个星座
唱着同样的歌 （我也好想这样啊。。。）
当我真心爱上你
天地也会变温柔 （会不会温柔我可不知道）
让我鼓起所有的勇气
向你说声新年快乐 （这次我真的会鼓起勇气对你说“新年快乐”的。我也好想听你对我说哦）
不管天上的云怎么笑
路上行人怎样看我 （对啊。。 不管别的了）
爱情都会有点紧张
都会有点彷徨 （不需要紧张， 不必要彷徨)
许多害羞的话还有一年慢慢地讲 （我会慢慢的对你讲的）
让我鼓起所有的勇气
向你说声新年快乐
不管天上的云怎么笑
路上行人怎么看我 （跟这我的感觉走）
祝我们快乐 （你快乐就好～）

My 6th Dec 2008 Penang Trip
Yeah~ my first Penang food trip was just wonderful.. and very *full* ~ Hehehe… I might mix a little bit of Chinese here and there… cause my little niece already wrote the blog in Chinese… so I just copy paste.. and of course add a little bit of “Jialing 的味道” in here la~
This blog was just “too late” ; thanks to my sudden trip to Guangzhou just after my coming back from Penang. Went Guangzhou for one week, and finally have the time to sit down here and write about my Penang.
哎哟~~That day 大塞车啊！！Out from my house at 1pm and 大概八点多才到. Actually we ( me, my 2 bros, my sis and cousin sis Khim) wanted to check into our hotel first, but then we were already hungry and charged directly to Gurney, which took us a little time to figure out the road since we were reading the map in dark.
Gurney Hotel area…. Jam again… from Gurney Hotel to Gurney Hawker place already took us 30mins. Get to start eating only at 9pm. We went there with 2 cars, so it’s not easy to get two parking you know, especially during holiday season. The parking space also is 用来抢的！
We ordered many different food. We have asam laksa, sotong bakar (which I find it a little too dry for me), char kaoy teow, shelly stuff of food, cendol, satay babi.. and many more la.. cannot remember liow. But one thing for sure I want to say here is the Pasembur (so called rojak). The Indian man who spin and dance around with disco songs while cutting and preparing the rojak. Head shaking, butt shaking and they way he sing the “rojak… rojak…rojak” I tell you… damn funny lor! The stall was just behind me.. everytime I turn around and see his act, I just cannot stop laughing lor~ ~
This was the Rojak Pasembur Man~
接着我们就回旅馆咯. We booked two different hotels, cause one was booked at the very last minute. My cousin brother and his family stayed in Traders Hotel and we stayed at Mingood Hotel. My trip is budget trip la ok. My little niece hor.. very funny lor. 跑去跟姑姑(me)睡. Got 五星级酒店don’t want to stay, come and stay at budget hotel with us! 呵呵呵~ She say “开心就好嘛”. Unbelievable.
第二天一大清早we woke up early and prepare to search for our 1st food station - 姐妹炒果条. It was not far from our hotel and thanks to my brother’s navigator, we found our way. Talking about the navigator, when he first bought that navigator, he kena scolded from me for buying such expensive thing duno for what. And I kept saying that “that navigator” thing is useless one la… you no chance to use it. The road all you know liow de ma~
Mana tau, at Penang, that navigator seems to be a big help – minus the cases where many Penang road are turned to one way. Sometimes the navigator will tell us to turn left.. but actual, there is no left turning (road changed to one way). So we went merry-go-round. Aiya.. talk about navigator pulak… come back to姐妹炒果条, we went there at 8am.. therefore not many people yet. I did not know it was a small shoppie with just few tables.
It didn’t seem as busy as I expected, since it’s supposed to be famous and all – maybe it was just too early.
I always hear my colleagues say that the姐妹very [巴百] de lor. [It it said to be one of the best char koay teow in Penang, with a notorious reputation of being overpriced and arrogant.] Then I finally get to KNOW them liow. When we 1st order, we have 10 pax. So I was the one going around asking everyone… they want mee or keoy teow… want spicy or not spicy… want siham or no siham.
Then the woman heard me and talked loudly in penang hokkien “wa lang bo tang geng eh… wu keoy teow nia. Lu ka wa kong lu ai kui pua teow eh sai liow”. Translation : Here no choice one… we only have koay teow and you just need to tell me you want how many plates enough already!
We ordered our drinks and had some light kuih. The kuih not so nice lor… Then our koay teow come out liow. Wah….好小盘哦. RM4 for one tiny plate of white koay teow. I said white cause normally the ones I eat in Klang is black black one lor. This 姐妹炒果条吃两盘都不够lo. The 炒果条really taste good. Very good and the prawn very Big and gigantic….
接着..我们去泰国和缅甸的庙. With the help of the *outdated navigator* and Penang map, we are able to find the Burma road and easily get to the temple. 就走走看看咯.. Take many photos there.
然后..我们去极乐寺 – Kek Lok Si. 超疯超自恋的我们就一直拍照. We did not know and drive straight to the top. Then only found out that we are too *high* up. Then we go lower and again we snap non-stop there…
呵呵呵~接着..我们去吃午餐??还是茶点??哈哈~ Asam laksa!! At Joo Hui Café. The asam laksa and 炒果条is just so good! Ya.. I ate one plate of 炒果条and one bowl of asam laksa哈哈哈~ 吃完..就在那间店旁吃cendol. The famous cendol好多人吃的哦! [Penang Road Cendol] . Don’t ask why my stomach can fill in so much.. ask the Penang people why their bowl and plate specially small lor. By the way.. are those food for children only??
After that we headed off for sightseeing. We covered the historic sites in Penang. We saw the Penang clock tower, the cannons in Fort Cornwallis, walked by the city hall and breeze through the wind near the harbour.
过后呢..Guys and gals separated into two cars. The guys went for online games and we girls…我们去gurney plaza逛逛咯. Then have a sip at Coffee Bean and talk some grandmother stories.
晚餐时间到我们去一条街 ( Jalan… aiya.. I forgot the name, but the area is just below Hotel Sunway). 很多食物的lo.我们叫了整桌的食物, 好好吃哦!!!!!最好吃的不愧是猪杂粥了!!! Yeah.. is 猪杂粥. When my colleagues recommend me 猪杂粥, I hear the name also don’t feel like ordering but since they insist me have to try, I give it a try. The 猪肠dangling at the stall looks… eerie, but when the猪杂粥comes to our table, you can smell the fragrant liow. Put inside your mouth… 赞赞赞！！
超好吃的。Especially the 炸肠。 如果有叫猪杂粥， 记得记得要叫老板加炸肠。 The 炸肠very very nice lor. 是不是很想去试试呢? 哈哈哈~ 不过..要早到才有的哦。 When I finished my big bowl of porridge and other side dishes, I was so full. But I still want to have more porridge, but my stomach no space liow. I thought want to tabao back to my hotel. Stand up, go to the stall… the stall tutup ledi. It was only 8pm lor!! Kua Jiong lor….We also tried the chee cheong fun Penang style. They serve with prawn paste ( 虾膏) not the normal sweet sauce in Klang. I eat until 怪怪的咯！
My brother saw the stall selling Hokkien mee, he wanted to order Hokkien mee. When he walk to the stall, he only sees the man serving prawn mee. He came back with scratched head telling me that the signboard write Hokkien mee but cook is prawn mee. It was my mistake. I forgot to tell everyone that in Penang, they name prawn mee as Hokkien mee!
After our heavy dinner, we head to Batu Ferringhi. My niece told us that the nite view there is very nice (which I tell you is bullshit lor). Besides the mini restaurant got lights and the pasar malam… there got nothing else to see lo). But still, we pass our time there, and the guys bought many DVD there too. Beach cannot see anything; cause too dark, but it was fun walking around the pasar malam for souvenior and food.我们逛逛就回咯.
回家途中又去打包炒果条. For goodness sake… look back at my blog.. morning 炒果条, afternoon 炒果条, nite 炒果条(as side dish) and supper also 炒果条. We just couldn’t have enough of it. 哈哈哈~
第三天一大清早, I woke my niece up early and we sneak out for our *hokkien mee*. As per my colleague’s hand drawn map, it’s right behind Giant supermarket. At 7.45am we reached there, saw shop also not many people yet, walk to the stall to order two bowls of Hokkien mee. The uncle told me that “ You want order 虾面 can, but have to wait one hour”. Feeling funny I thought maybe two bowls they don’t want to give us first. Then I approached him again and act cute… “老板， 我要一碗可以吗？一碗罢了” . He reply me “你要一碗还是十碗， 也要等一个小时。 我这里还要做很多碗的！”Terus no mood liow. 结果呢we ordered one bowl of laksa from other stall.
Go back to my car and get my penang food book. Not wanting to miss out Prawn Mee, we saw Jalan Perak has a famous shop for prawn mee too.我们俩又跑去吃。This time my niece is my navigator. On the third day, we found out that actually Penang road not difficult to conquer lor. We almost know the way around the city liow. Waited for 1/2 hour for a bowl of prawn mee. And the prawn mee really very very delicious la. The soup so “prawny”!!! Slurp of the prawn mee in few mins… eat finish the bowl takes less than 5 mins, but have to sit down there wait half and hour. But 值得 - 汤味道很好呢!
过后..we gather up 全部人, and go to Anson Road for our 点心. One table of 10pax, full of dim sum , and only cost us RM98. This is the only cheap food we ate in Penang so far. Others all tiny and expensive. Hehe.吃完点心想去买些饼的, wanted to go Him Heang, but their tau saer peah need to order one day ahead.可惜.. 唉~ 我们都要回了没买了咯..
Then we fill our tank full and head back to Klang. We ki hiao and took the small road (Tapah-Bidor-Teluk Intan-Sekinchan- Kuala Selangor). We cross Penang bridge at 11.30am… reach Klang at 8pm!! Thanks to the jam all the way from Teluk Intan right up to Kapar!
Penang really a food heaven. Thank God I’m not staying there permanently. If not, my weight will be double up lor…. Maybe triple tim. 哈哈~

第三天一大清早, I woke my niece up early and we sneak out for our *hokkien mee*. As per my colleague’s hand drawn map, it’s right behind Giant supermarket. At 7.45am we reached there, saw shop also not many people yet, walk to the stall to order two bowls of Hokkien mee. The uncle told me that “ You want order 虾面 can, but have to wait one hour”. Feeling funny I thought maybe two bowls they don’t want to give us first. Then I approached him again and act cute… “老板， 我要一碗可以吗？一碗罢了” . He reply me “你要一碗还是十碗， 也要等一个小时。 我这里还要做很多碗的！”Terus no mood liow. 结果呢we ordered one bowl of laksa from other stall.
Go back to my car and get my penang food book. Not wanting to miss out Prawn Mee, we saw Jalan Perak has a famous shop for prawn mee too.我们俩又跑去吃。This time my niece is my navigator. On the third day, we found out that actually Penang road not difficult to conquer lor. We almost know the way around the city liow. Waited for 1/2 hour for a bowl of prawn mee. And the prawn mee really very very delicious la. The soup so “prawny”!!! Slurp of the prawn mee in few mins… eat finish the bowl takes less than 5 mins, but have to sit down there wait half and hour. But 值得 - 汤味道很好呢!
过后..we gather up 全部人, and go to Anson Road for our 点心. One table of 10pax, full of dim sum , and only cost us RM98. This is the only cheap food we ate in Penang so far. Others all tiny and expensive. Hehe.吃完点心想去买些饼的, wanted to go Him Heang, but their tau saer peah need to order one day ahead.可惜.. 唉~ 我们都要回了没买了咯..
Then we fill our tank full and head back to Klang. We ki hiao and took the small road (Tapah-Bidor-Teluk Intan-Sekinchan- Kuala Selangor). We cross Penang bridge at 11.30am… reach Klang at 8pm!! Thanks to the jam all the way from Teluk Intan right up to Kapar!
Penang really a food heaven. Thank God I’m not staying there permanently. If not, my weight will be double up lor…. Maybe triple tim. 哈哈~
