On Thursday after work I was craving for Indonesian layer cake. Thanks to bro's friend who brought some over to our place on CNY Day 2....

Circling ard Taipan area and stopped at Berry's. Their layer cake is one of the nicest i've tasted... Walked in, NO layer cake found... :((

guess what's her answer.....?
lenglui: NO
me: OK. No fruit flan. Pfftt....

Walked Across the street was King's.... HOpeless... Tarak :(( but the girl was nice though, offered their pandan layer cake... errr...No thanks sweetie...thats not what I'm after...

Patisfrance was closed, so no hope of getting anything else...

Went to Bee's...errr... I dun usually buy their layer cake but a craving is a craving...Walked in... searched high n low for the layer cake, the only thing i see is 7slices on a plate. Wha ???? Asked the staff where's the whole block? SOLD Out....hmph! Bought 3slices @ RM1 each... Needed to complain...Sms to pal again...

me: Bee's saved d day. But hor... Only slices. Bought 3. WHY Everyone also got same craving as me one??
lenglui: OMG!! Speechless....

last quarter

Hey! It's d last quarter of the year....

and oni slightly two more months til year end.

Work's been hectic. Today marks ONE year in this company. How time flies. learnt loads, but also disappointed with the mgmt team and a incompetent colleague who's a real nincompoop. Hiring ANY OTHER malaysians wud be so much better.
Yup! Foreigner... who doesnt wanna resign to the fact that she knows nuts. ALWAYS mixing things up.
If I got my way, I'd make her life as miserable as she makes ours...

Home front since cuzzie's back... wat else... Eat lar... she come back for feast...we oso feast together gether ma...
But now she balik kampung... so no big feast. heh!
Heard Jogoya got 50% disc for ladies til Dec.... I'm drooling liao.... see how....

Gym plaks... haf been consistent but last week due to work, only went two days...Monday and Tuesday. Last night went back, suffered kau kau...Did my usual FI's Combat class pushed myself to the max and then followed by new release of Pump. Go check it out. Love the new releases :)

Other than tthat...nothing ady....

Sekian cerita....

hiya!

Had some frens who hadn't been popping by lately who wrote email saying something was wrong, cudn't access in here....

hence checked back to see wat wuz wrong. Nothing wor...

Funnily.... when I post to say I'm taking a hiatus, then frens wud still be stubborn. REALLY hiatus larrrrr...

Ok latest update - mum, cuzzie Wen n baby are back. Been eating non stop. Tonight I decided to be a bit anti social cos my throat's feeling a bit weird. hope it's not a cough what with the Raya and eating feast.
Lemme tell u wat we been having...Thursday dinner was Indian rice at Nirwana's (now if u are a fan of banana leaf, pls pls do not go there...better to go to Kanna's, Sri Paandi's or Grand City in PJ), Friday dinner at our fave hangout in Sunway to celebrate Dad's Bday - was quite a massive feast that one, but never too much...we'd end up polishing it all.
Saturday dinner wif another uncle - chicken rice. Sunday morning brunch BKT - it ain't the Best but convenient lar...near our house.

Other than that been caught up wif work.All of us are Not very happy,particularly with the bitch ard to screw and messes things up, but who gives a damn anyway?(chey...not our biz, not our money...) jz do wat we all can and wat we are being paid to do lah..

Life's a bitch sometimes...We just gotta find alternatives to it.

p/s- After this HIATUS ok.... u'll get to read oni in granny email. cheerio!

lunches

makannnn

After 2days back to back rice for lunch (Mon fried rice, tues nasi lemak putih nyonya, I was again tempted to make it a trio today...

But then I walked into this cafe in Sunway dsara and then they had chicken roulade.
Hmmmm.... not bad worrrr... inside got ham & cheese. Now I'm not a big fan of cheese but of late find that I am quite geared to consume it.

And so it came.... wahhhhhh best nya... I nearly licked the plate clean if not for the 6pairs of eyes watching me.The mushroom gravy was da bomb.

On the way back, saw a cempedak hanging on the end of a van selling goreng pisang... Wah!!!! gersang nya....I stopped and bought two bijik.

heh! that's for tea.Better go bek ady la... haf to make sure I do a full workout after this reporting ;p

backkkk

The dinner was Great, despite the committee fears of hiccups ;p


Was the only one seated in the table as the rest were helping to run the show. A while later a friend of the couple came by. ok not so lonely.

Bride and her knight looked radiant....

Dinner was served quite fast. Lovely first dish - 5Combo of starters. Next was the shark fin/crabmeat double boiled soup. nyummmmm
After that roast chicken w garlic. and then we had the speeches by couple then the bestman & maid of honour.

Next was the steamed fish.. ok la... Tasted like Steamed Fish.

Now... The Next dish was GREAT... prawns...Deshelled... LOVELY... Managed to save some for maid of honour.

After that was the brocolli/beancurd/abalone/mushroom dish. The beancurd tasted a bit coarse. Other than that it was fine.
Final dish was glutinuous rice. And then dessert - mango sago & some puddings. The mango sago was CHUNNNNN We lapped it up. heheheh!

After that more camwhoring. Couple came up wif the idea of polaroid shots and we took many in the group. Was a nice evening. I certainly had fun.

Now am heading to bed... Had a bit to drink. *hic* Nite peeps!

No wonder rain la...

cos... Yday I went for Combat and coupla tracks in Pump... lolz...
I was contemplating to just go there for a walk on the treadmill. Maklum la... Mondays are haywire days in the office.


Yesterday the same.. I oni had lunch at 4pm ok? bleh! Went to my fave cosy cafe in a snug corner in Dsara Jaya - Bon Bon for lunch. On the way there had pre-ordered my fish & chips. Of course, being a regular there has an advantage lah.. they know my name ma... ekekkeke!!

So the owner there was asking nice onot the fish & chips ? errr... taste like fish la.. lolz... I had wanted my fave honey yoghurt/rosemary chic.. but opted for the 'heathier' fish meal..

Came out unharmed... I didn't fall for the banana crumble.. kekekeke!!!

Quickly rush off and left office as rain was starting. I missed the dog feeding sessions.. dem!

Got into gym 10mins before d Combat class. Didn't really miss the gym cos it's not my regular hangout place..Proceeded to changing room, changed and did the class.


Here was z play list:
1. Summer Melody (sigh... Nothing else to do ady ar??)
2. Thks for the Memory
3. Addicted to Love (instructor was thrilled cos I syiok sendiri..kept asking the class to look left the next time...sot..)
4. ahhh forgot la... It's the evasive side kick one la...*yawnnn*
5. Elevator (CAN SOMEONE STOP DOING this song already? it's bloody OVERPLAYED)
6. YMCA (fun track)
7. Hardcore paradise
8. Crescendo of Ecstasy
9. Here I come
10. dunno. MIA (went 2car to get stuff)

Came back up, ok. decided to give Pump another try.Wah! the squats were torturing my back. Dunno if i was doing it right.. lolz. kept staring at d instructor n checking my pose.Survived 1,2,3, then it was clean n press. Erk the bloody track that'd make me winch n look stupid. Decided for a break before the back is dead.

Got home in one piece, albeit being sore all over.

Jap rest

Gosh! Now doing food review HERE..hehe!

The other day pal recommended this Japanese restaurant Sumo in Subang Biz Centre. I've heard of it but not gone in there.

So one fine day just decide to check out that place, plus satisfy my Jap food craving lah.

I must say, I love this place already.We walked in and as a typical Jap restaurant wud be, waiters say hello and one ushers you to the table. Had a look at the menu, cudnt decide wat to order so called pal. She eats the saba set. eeks... I'm not really a fan of saba. I stuck wif the salmon teriyaki set. hmmmm NOT disappointed. Nice!

After that, tried an avocado unagi sushi. NICE NICE!

Two plus points are the waitress serving us was VERY service friendly...helped recommend food (shows she was given training) as well as kept topping up our green tea. Princess who went wif me also commented that the toilet is clean.thumbs up for this place.

It's the same row as La Cocina (another lovely place to wine n dine).If u STILL dunno how to go there, gimme a buzz n tell me u wanna buy me dinner there too, i'll gladly take u...ahahahahaha!!!! ;p
