My Homely Steak House @Melaka

Has been telling ah dear that i wanna try this restaurant out one day. i know it's open by taiwanese cos the restaurant's name is the same i had during my training days in taiwan.

So, one fine day, both of us went and try it out.



They serve steak and mostly western food. Bcos it's lunch time and i dun feeling western that day, so i ordered fried rice... salted fish & anchovies fried rice! the prawn is big, the rice is Q, and most importantly the fried rice has "fire smell", which makes the rice delicious!



ah dear ordered set lunch and it's worth it, one soup, one salad, one main course for only RM10++. Main course is chicken fillet with spagetthi noodle.



The soup is different from you get in pizza hut or any other campbell soup. It's nice, seldom get this kind of flavour!



the salad is rather normal, with thousand island sauce and really few pieces of lettuce, tomato slice and cucumber slice...pityful!

But look at the main course,



Sizzling chicken fillet, spagetthi with sunny! haha..yummy...oh yeah...with black pepper sauce.



Oh yeah! not to forget the drinks. Taiwanese is famous for its bubble tea. Ah dear ordered honey dew bubble milk tea with lotsssssssssssa pearl! U dun need to add pearls! it's a lot...until u feel geli! haha...



We spent RM21.30 total bill. Thinking its cheap cos we are really satisfied with the good food. but not too fast...as i claim my car tat time...i found one pieces of white paper was clip on my wiper...DAMN IT! bad sign!!! it is compound ticket...FUCK! there goes my RM15.00...*sob sob*

So, pls remember to put your parking ticket anywhere in melaka cos the officer is really hardworking, they work hard although its under big hot sun!



Oh yeah, the restaurant is in pandan malim, same row with econsave supermarket. Very near to wilson chicken rice.

Po Chi Lam Bakuteh @ Malim

Found this shop name very funny... Po Chi Lam?! not suppose a chinese clinic meh? how come selling bakuteh one?

So, i use winnie and KS Teu as white mouse...bring them to try out! Shun pian belanja them eat cos they give a big help to ah dear on the job hunting. Thanks la!



Bakuteh with Melakan favourite "tao-kee"

The soup is as good as teowchew bakuteh in Tmn Merdeka...but still long way to go if compare to klang one la, some more it is not the black soup type one la. Also taste nice la!



Vege with nice fried onion



Look at the yam rice! the best match in the world with bakuteh! FYI, bakuteh must eat with garlic and chillies...too bad i did not take garlic this time as i am going to visit a customer after the lunch...i scared later my customer chase me out...hahahaha... remember lorrrr! dun scared away ur customer....rule 128 of being a salesman!

Look at happy Winnie and KS Teu too... Winnie always mention she like to hang out with me cos i will bring her go eat something good. She really miss her days in DaMonQi... isn't she? Make me more tension to ask her out for lunch...cos need to entertaint her with nice and new food! difficult leh!

P/S: the shop is behind the Malim food court near the main road. (Pasar) Go find urself la....lazy to draw map liao...

粽子飘香

每当这个时候我还是一样。。。

一定会发伊媚儿给公司里的朋友们,向他们讨粽子吃。。。

因为我是外地来的,朋友们总是两肋插刀,尽量满足我的要求。。。嘻嘻! 谢啦!

可是今年与往年不同,我不再在"猴子园"上班了,好难开口向人家要了,所以我压抑着我对粽子的渴望。。。

好不容易才忍到回家去。。。但回家前我特别向妈妈吩咐我要两大串粽子带回马六甲!

在此特别的向大家介绍客家人的粽子是怎样的。



老妈子在忙呢。。。

妈妈在教姐姐怎样裹粽子,现在的年轻的,那会呢?!

这样裹的。。。把绳子串过来。。。bla...bla...bla...etc

这些就是材料啦!




粤:美女厨房,吃了就爽!

嗨!我亲爱的粽子们。。。很快的你就会在我肚子里。。。
FYI。。。我最高纪录。。。一天里吃了12粒。。。厉害吧?哈哈!

Best Hokkien Mee

Because of the petrol price increase lately, I took public transport back home. Yeah...I admit I a bit haosiao la... just testing only... Bus fees is RM9.60, took me ~2 & half hour back to Pudu. Then, is almost dinner time and I was a bit hungry...am craving for hokkien mee...

It took me not long to figure what to eat on the bus...the place where i used to go after tuition class during my secondary time......

The hokkien mee there is so delicious, fried with charcoal one...black black and thick noodle...not those yellow thin noodle.

The place is near Kotaraya shopping complex, small lorong where you won't notice it, I did not know this stall has a name...until now...

The menu has japanese words, i guess, many japanese wuz here gua... Anyway, I wanna recommend their hokkien mee and the pork meat soup (bak gee)...I still remember the pork meat is so tender.



Yeah...I had my dinner here...where the size of the mouse is as big as ur house cat running around!



But who give a shit...I of cos ordered hokkien mee la...this is 1 of my favorite food leh...Hokkien mee best fren is who, u know? of cos "malai zhan" la! Eat it with this, the best match in the world!



Not a while the waiter serve my delicious hokkien mee...the charcoal flavour, the "fire" smell...one word "Cheng" la!




After finished my my food, paid RM6.00, I walk to central market to catch my bus back to Selayang. I a bit kan-cheong cos i really long time din take bus liao...i cannot remember when was the last time i took bus...



I so clever, before going back i go online do some searching and got the bus company's phone number. So, I called them and ask... gotto know the bus station din change and the charge now is RM2.50 as per the staff claim...

So, I "cleverly" prepare RM.2.50 early early... Found the bus is waiting for passenger and i quickly hop-onto the bus...and wait...tamade...u know i waited how long? 20min the bus baru start moving...shit! they need to wait till the bus is full baru start...shit!

Then the conductor come and collect and i hand in RM2.50 to him telling him my destination...but he return me RM0.50...and gave me a full ticket which is only RM2.00...MFK...so damn embarrassing leh...the foreigner next to me and the conductor must be thinking i am stoooooooopid. Shit man!

Sumore there are very few chinese took bus...all are foreigners...and our other kaum-kaum la...i felt uneasy as i scared they lou-lap kau me...then i mai die lorrr...sumore i carry laptop worrr... the more i think the more i scared. So, i sit diam-diam and keep looking outside and listen to my ipod... the bus stops every stops and it is so slow...took me 1 and half hour to reach my home...I've wasted all my time on the bus...but nvm la... because it's slow and I was able to see how beautiful KL is and how much the changes compare to my memory. Boy! so many things were changed...including myself...but i know 1thing did not change for sure...LOVE from my family... they still ring me up checking where were I...just like last time...end.

迷失

前一阵子,我迷失自己...完全无方向...心里不停地问同样的一个问题...

感到愤怒, 在转牛角尖...

我放下所有事,往慈济里的咖啡店...静一静...听听轻音乐...喝喝咖啡...看看书籍...



我在那里逗留了两个小时...想通了...心情变得好起来了.



原来,当心情感到郁闷,不快乐...就该停下脚步...歇一歇...心情做些调整...自然而然就会轻松多了!

我感到好像把一吨重的包袱给放下了...遗留在慈济里...

我现在心情清澈如水...我知道怎样应付了...谢谢!

Family Heritage Cafe

Very rare you get good western food restaurant here in Melaka. This restaurant was highly recommended by Michael Loh. He always tell me goto tried it out. Well I had a chance during the QiQi farewell party. They serve good and beautiful western food, like those u see it in the movie...small portion, decorated very nice until u dun feel like eating it because too beautiful...


The restaurant call Family Heritage Cafe @ Bkt. Beruang. The western food is upstairs, 2nd floor, called Armada dining room.




After the QiQi farewell party i was so eager to try for the 2nd time and would like to share with ah dear. So, I bring her go lately, to celebrate she got call for interview....hahahah...u dun need an excuse to eat rite?!?!





I told her food here were nice and price is reasonable...cheaper than those steak house in KL. In fact, the chef is so heartful to make it nice and decoration is nice too... ah dear ordered chicken gordon blue.




The chicken fillet was rolled and deep fried. Not like those ordinary flat chicken fillet...not special enuff...Even i think this chef is so creative...this can keep the chicken in original taste, juicy....because deep frying can cause all the water in chicken dried up...and make the chicken tasteless. But not this one, trust me!




Yummy yummy...juicy juicy couture....heheheh




Well, for me...feel like eating spagetthi cause long time i din cook spagetthi liao...a bit craving..haha! So, i ordered seafood spagetthi!



The basil leave add to perfection...the aroma~.... i tell u~....tsk tsk tsk!




Upon check out, we pay less than RM30 for good food, nice ambient...where can find liao?! Only here...in Melaka!




Nah! here's the map!

My "new" toy

My bro-in-law gave me this grass cutter few months back but i was too lazy to use it...I got no idea how to use it... I din even open up and look see look see... I just know it was using electric, dun need petrol or any diesel. So cool!



I dunno how it looks like not until the grass at my yard grow until the height of my knee. Damn...no choice but to open up and use it...sumore mom is not here to help me cut the gras... :P

This grass cutter has a name, damn cool one...call multi-trim...it's made in England...high tech stuff but i worried where to get the accessories...guess wat?! I am right...couldn't find any distributor here when i try to search in the internet...




It suppose to use one wire but i so clever, i use 2 wire...cause the wire get's broken so fast....end up i use up all the remaining wire...and i only manage to trim one small piece of yard.



I did some landscape decor after i trim this yard and use ur imagination...it was different after the grass has been trim... i added some rock...some flowers...pls gimme some more time, I will decorate it into very nice one...trust me.



But in order this to happen, i 1st need to find the accessories wire to start the job again... *sigh*
