Empire Damansara @ Boat Noodles

Recently, a few of my Insta friends have posted up pictures of very small portion of dinner/lunch otheir Instagram


And Friday was normally my dating day with the Baby Hippo. Didn't know where to hang out, he brought me to have a try at this place. 


It's pork free as they only serve beef and also chicken glass noodle. 
Served in very small portion, just like how it did in Bangkok, the glass noodle is available in dry and also soup.
You can order the noodles as much as you like until you are full!! 

The restaurant is small, but is always pack and full with customers. I even heard the customer sitting next to our table that she has been here for more than 3 times! 
And people are already waiting outside the restaurant for a place when it is only 6.30pm.


Their menu is pretty simple, as they only have 2 types of noodles which is cooked in 2 variation - Soup & Dry.
Me personally prefer the Soup noodle as I find it more juicy compared with the dry ones.


Baby Hippo waiting patiently for the food. His last meal was at 10am that day. So he says he is like puasa now...hahaha

We ordered 8 bowls during the first round - 4 soup 4 dry.


As you can see, the portion is really really small that you can even finish it up in 2 bite. And because it is so small in portion, we finish the first round quite fast and add on another 4 bowl.

Baby Hippo was actually still hungry after finishing the 2nd round but didn't order for the 3rd round.
He says it is not worth it. He rather have some snack after that.
But for me, I think its okay.
Affordable, nice and interesting!




In total. we ate 12 bowls!! Only reach the "Almost There" rank. Will work harder next time. And all these cost only RM 28.40 and they do not charge us 10% and  also 6%!! Good right??!

Since we ate too full, so we decided to walked around. This is my first time here at Empire Mall, but seriously, nothing much. I think this is just a makan place. There is nothing much besides restaurant, cafe and also coffee shop.

They kinda follow the concept in Publika. Never went to Publika before, so I'm not sure how those umbrellas in Publika looks like. 




Selfie and couple pic is a must! Hhahaha.

Do have a try at the Boat Noodles if you have not try it out yet. 
They have a new opening at Kuchai Lama. So you don't have to go so far anymore just to try them.

Dream Chasing

It's been 2 months since I last update my blog. Super sorry, was really really busy.
Busy with what? Plenty~~and chasing dreams is in the list!!!

Was figuring and thinking a lot about my future lately since the last 2 months.
And up till now, still haven't figure out what I really wanna do. *fucking stupid*

Saw the Air Asia Walk-in Interview on their website last 3 months.
All of the sudden, the urge to chase my long long time ago dream gush in.

Dream of becoming an air stewardess since SPM but got a no no from my mum when I told her about this.
 "You will at least need a certificate in your life! Nowadays, CERTIFICATE are IMPORTANT"

Being left with no choice, I have to go look for college to get A certificate. At that time, the easiest course would be either Hotel Management (tour guide is under my dream list too) or Mass Communication (thought it would be the easiest course at that time)

Once again, Hotel Management got banned! *wtf*
"You can train all your bed sheet folding skill and culinary skills at home if you want to. Don't waste money paying to study on how to clean the toilet"
Conclusion, Mass Comm were chosen.
Struggle to finish up 4 years course that used up 42K of my PTPTN loan and now end up doing Marketing in the Social University.

Getting fed-up with my job, so started job hunting aka dream chasing.
Kinda BE PREPARED for the flight attendant interview and HOPE to get a job there.
But...who would give a flight attendant job to a DWARF!!! ?? (I'm only 157cm...*sob sob*)

Yeah, is does demotivate me a little. Who would not right??
But come one man, I do research on the interview, be prepared and WENT to the interview.
Some people doesn't even have the courage to step into the battlefield.
At least I give it a shot! *Hell yeah!!!*

Not boasting la...just wanna share the experience.
It did feels great when you get a chance to chase for your dreams, regardless in getting the job or not.
But do go for it, if you have a chance. You will be surprised with the outcome.



 0144, please report to the floor!!!
My lucky number of the day.




Some of my sotd
Yeah, they need full make up and great grooming
I think I lack of this
Should be one of the reason I got rejected.

Coconut Flower Seafood Restaurant

Mother's Day falls on the 2nd week of May every month. This is a general knowledge that everyone should have know. But not my brilliant sister.

She works as a nurse. Therefore, its quite hard to plan something together due to her nature of work. She usually only gets her schedule of the week a week before and most of the time, couldn't be changed (according to her). 

So, she actually forgets about Mother's Day and had to work on that day. She even blames me for not informing her earlier. ( I was like wtf, why blaming me?? You should have know it yourself)

So we had to postponed to another week so that we had enough time for her to apply leave. Hate this fact where every time, the WHOLE family needs to plan everything according to her schedule and she is ALWAYS ALWAYS not willing to spend her leave on us. She says it is not appropriate for a nurse to always take leave. (wtf)

As the King & Queen wants to try on something else as we always had Japanese buffet during this big days. So we decided to go for seafood and The King choose this restaurant.
Coconut Flower Seafood Restaurant at Teluk Gong, Klang. 

They have this very comfortable and beautiful ambiance.



Their sittings were design like a small hut. And each table is under one roof. For me, it is quite comfortable as you can have your own privacy and "alone" time while eating with no one looking at you when you lick you thumbs. 

From the review I got online, they were famous with their Toddy aka Palm Wine. We ordered 1 bottle and even "tapao-ed" 1 bottle home.

This is how it looks like. It contains alcohol and some baker even used this to make bread. According to The Queen, they contained yeast.

 Butter Prawn - RM 29
 Super delicious and crunchy that you can even eat without removing the shell.

 Vegetable - RM 12
 
Kam Heong Kepah - RM 15
Their kam heong style is really kam heong. Thumbs up

Sweet & Sour Crab - RM 35/KG
This is soooo affordable. We actually asked for Sour & Spicy Crab, but it came Sweet & Sour.
We didn't have time to bother but just finish it all. 

Kam Heong Lala - RM 15
We added this last minute. So couldn't take any picture as my hands were dirty. 

With 6% government tax, we only ate a total of RM 176.20. Never in my life pay less than RM 200 for seafood dinner. I remember once I had seafood dinner in KK and it cost 12 of us almost 1k for the dinner. Luckily our boss is there to back us up as it was a work trip. 

Do have a try there those seafood lovers out there. It would definitely worth a try.

Kanpai Japanese BBQ & Bar

Recently, Facebook is very popular with foods. You can always see on Facebook, the Top 10 Must Try Food in Penang, Melaka, Klang Valley and etc. 

I spotted this a few weeks ago...

Just in case some of you doesn't understand Chinese, this is what it writes.
"Top 10 Affordable Buffets in KL"
 
So me Micheal decided to have a try one by one. Out of the 10 recommended, we have tried out only one. And decided try it out on the 15th of every month. 

Coincidentally, one of his friends is celebrating her 21st birthday on the date we planned to try the food out. So to kill 2 birds with 1 stone, we recommend this place.
We book the table for 10 of us and reach there at 7pm. Though that it is still early which explains the number of guest in the restaurant, but the crowd didn't even added up to what we expect from a Top 10 listed restaurant.

The restaurant is divided into 3 sections. 
1. Ala Cart section
2. Buffet section
3. Bar section (with only 1 bar table)


Yeah, just like what you see, RM 35+ buffet. And there is actually 2 types of buffet.

RM 35+ buffet only comprises of PORK. All parts of pork. RM 49+ buffet had lamb, beef, crab, and fish besides pork. 
But because there are some who don't eat pork, so we ordered the RM 35+ buffet. 
They have to order the same type of buffet for the same table. No mixing allowed. Besides BBQ, there is also the mini steamboat. 


I forgot to take pictures as I was kinda hungry. All these was taken from Google, so credit to those who shared. 
Our grill bar was not as clean as this. So we don't really grilled. If I'm not mistaken, we only refilled the pork like twice, but non-stop for the steamboat. 
And our steamboat only contain mushroom, cabbage, pork ball and also crab stick. All these definitely doesn't worth RM 35+.

Quite a disappointment as we expect much from a Top 10 listed restaurant. 
Wonder how they got into the TOP 10  list when Jogoya don't even get a place.

Well, maybe not everyone have the same taste bud, but you can give it a try. You will need to make a reservation here at their Facebook.

Will keep you guys posted on the next buffet restaurant that I will be trying on the 15th next month.

Blinded

A sudden mood of writing in this kind of situation...*weird*
That is why people say writer are always so weird.
I know I am not a writer, but I do like writing, so why as not claim myself as one. Hahaha *dont punch me*

Well, as look from my title, yeah...I'm temporary one-eye blinded since last Thursday.
Not sure what happen but the little guy on the right side is "amazingly" itchy.
So, normal reaction, sure scratch la!! What else we can do, right?
Scratching, scratching and scratching, it went RED!!! Like seriously red and not to mention, PAINFUL!!!

So I started to drip on EyeMo, as the early thought was just irritating eye.
But then, it got so serious the next day that opening the eye is super difficult and uncomfortable.
Able to hang up till after the morning meeting and at last, got the permission from the Boss to take MC!
Went to see the doc and he told me that my eye was injured, that is why it is infected now.
Where and how the hell did this little guy got injured??!
Im not wearing lens. I did not ride a motorbike (which the doc suspect). I did not even broke any glasses in these few days!! How come it got injured??!!

Puzzled and yet shocked, the doc ask me to rest for 2, 3 days, which is a no-no for me!
I had an event on the weekend that I need to attend, and my presence is a must for news coverage!
There would be no news from the event if I am not there.
So I lied to the doc that I am not working on the weekend, and I only need the Friday's MC.


The eye-drip and also the antibiotic that I got from the doc.
The drip was to be dripped every 2 hours and the antibiotic, 3 times a day.

Its Sunday today and I just got home from my event.
Was suppose to let the little guy have a good rest, and yet I am still blogging here!
Anyways, just a gentle reminder to you guys.
DONT EVER RUB YOUR EYES HARD AS THOUGH THEY ARE SOMEONE WHO STOLE YOUR MONEY OR WHATSOEVER. YOU WILL DEFINITELY REGRET IT!! DEFINITELY!!!

Take really good care of these little guys as they are super emo and super sensitive. 
They will really make you suffer and you will not be able to perform your best till they gets their moods back.
Good luck!!!

CNY Dinner at D'Spice KL

This year CNY was slightly different from what we had planned all while long. My grandma passed away 2 days before CNY, and this caused everyone falls into the NO-CNY mode.

This was shown most obvious from my mum, as she cant accept the sudden death of my grandma which passed away during her sleep. No one really know the reason behind her death.

So none of us really celebrated CNY. The only thing I do is just dropby Peng Chung's house for fire cracker on the 10th day of CNY

And as the usual year, its a tradition that we Puchong Gang had CNY dinner either before or after CNY. Sad to say, the number of attendees drop year by year, but yet we still appreciate the time where we are able to gather together.

We bought the voucher from Groupon and had the dinner at D'Spice located at the heart of KL.

This restaurant was located at the Bukit Bintang Park. Nice environment despite the so-so food. 



Shane & Peng Chung




The voucher we bought comes in set.
Starter - Mushroom Soup
Main Course - Twin Sharing Meat Platter
Appetizer - Single Scoop Ice Cream



Lamb Chop & Whole Chicken Platter


Lamb Chop & Sirloin Steak Platter

Some selfie after the dinner

Cant help myself but to post all his picture. Puchong Lee Min Ho. Any single out there interested? Feel free to pm me. Haha


After dinner, dessert time at the famous Tous les Jours bakery. 



Only me and Edwin had cakes as dessert as all of them are too full. So we ordered Red Velvet cake and also the Black Forest cake. 




This marks the end of the gathering. Enjoy the time where we are able to gather together. 
Should gather more often.
