Maggi Mee

Warning: This is another "mou-liu" post.

Bloggin' about instant noodles is one of the senseless thing that i would do. Til' now, i may hav more than 5 posts that are related to instant noodles, particularly Maggi Mee!
and that's my way of expressing my luv towards it!
yea, i m a hardcore fan of Maggi instant noodle!
and i prefer chicken flavor more than anythin' else.
coz it gets my creativeness running wild!
 i luv it how the way it is....and sometimes with lotsa garnishing...
most importantly, it is highly customizable...
dun u tink so?

Seriously in need of a D.I.E.T P.L.A.N

With the recent two-week school holidays, there have been plenty of family occasion around, which involves feasting.
My weight has grown from 47 > 48 > 49 and now 50!!!!!
OMG!!!
i need to undergo some aggressive diet plan to get back into my original weight before it shoot up uncontrolably...
Instead of having instant noodle with lots and lots of garnishing...
i oni hav this, for brunch
 and since i dislike dairy milk, it was replaced with soy bean milk
still tasted as good!
crunchy and golden,
not to mention, appetizing as well...
but only ONE BOWL per consumption...
so darn restricted!

Rice Dumpling

Last week was Dragon Boat festival (or known as "Duen Ng" festival). Living in the city, i dun witness dragon boat race on that particular day, nor having seen one in my entire life.
Instead, i had rice dumpling, and luv it to the MAX!
 My mum don't cook this, we bought it at some stall. Despite that, it still taste as GOOD.
I like how the glutinous rice blends with beans, pork, shitake mushroom, egg yolk...all fattening stuffs, wrapped with layers of leaf. It took hours and lotsa patience to produce a good dumpling with all ingredients being blended together so well.
Lets not talk about the dumpling, coz it isn't special anyway, jst an ordinary one.
Zoomed into the chopstick...
What did u see?

Yeapz, it's the family name...with the origin story written in microtext.
Cool?

Promotion

Finally. After some 'hard' work, I've got what i want. Indeed, having achieved my mid-term goal earlier than projected made me proud of myself.
*yea, it sounds like i m boasting on my ego rite now...

Being on a level higher does made things different. The big boss who never spoke to me all these while notices me, and started to initiate conversation. I was indeed surprised coz this sort of ego and stern boss approached me and started his story of uh...well, life experiences!

Weird weird weird...still a long way to go...and lots to learn.

Four Points by Sheraton - The Room

Frankly speaking, i'm a cheapskate person. I will capture as mch photo of "all things beautiful" for as long as my camera battery could last. The below is my favorite working spot during my stay @ BKK.
The place was like a mini gallery. The moment i stepped into my room, i was 'wow-ed' by its appearance!
 it has some old pictures hung on the wall...i wonder if it's the same for all other rooms?
 hope not.
Anyhow, here's what they offer for snacks.
 some liquor, chips, and....a box of....
condom???
 the fridge has plenty of drinks and you wouldn't die from thirst
 some chocolates too
 meanwhile, the wardrobe has all these
 the view of the room entrance
 and uh-hu...my comfy bed
the bath tub where i soaked myself in a foam bath
 the overview of the bathroom basin
 and the shower area
 even the bathroom has some pictures!
 towels, soaps, toilet roll, facial tissue etc
 the artistic carving on the mirror
 and the best thing is that you can open the slider door from the bathroom, overlooking the room and facing the TV! btw, it has multiple channels to choose from!
 the normal basic gadgets at the bedside
 in case u r lost on what to do, here's a guidance for your reference!
But i think taking pictures in this room is enuff to occupy my time now.
Cool?
This room is simply amazing...

I 'heart' Samurai Pork Burger

Warning: This is not a commercial write-up and is not advertising on behalf of McDonalds.

Here's my comfy couch at the hotel. Do you noticed sometin' edible?
It's the PORK BURGER!!!
 so damn "syiok" first time having PORK burger
 luv it luv it luv it...to the MAX
 wish that i could have it more often, but i only hav ONE day. One pathetic day to try all things "Thai" before departing back the next day.
Anyhow, the next morning, i was havin' this in the hotel. Plenty of food to choose from.  
Was havin' a lil' of everythin'. See how full my plate is! 
yea, shameless me! 
BON APPETITE !

Somewhere in Bangkok

Being a first-timer to Bangkok, i forced my boss to take me for a walk. After our biz meeting with supplier, we hopped onto the Skytrain for my "debut-stroll-cum-date-with-boss" in BKK. Relying on a map, we made our way to this nite market. 
 those who have been here will know what is the 'specialty' of this place. And of course, it is not becoz of its numerous signboards shouting for attention...
 you may get to see scantily clad "ladies" performing pole dancing...whether or not they are 100% lady, u will never know...u be the judge!
 it was dark out there and my camera can't perform well @ nite
 hence, i dun manage to shoot tht much pictures on its surrounding, the only brighter place is the train station
 and the signboard that proof that "I have been to this place" once called Siam
Siam Paragon, so near yet so far, was capturing this photo while waiting for the train. Didn't manage to go, coz it was nearing their close-time and we need to get back to hotel to rush on some work!
So, there goes my ONE NITE in BANGKOK...

Hee Lai Ton, Pudu

Been to this restaurant a few times over the past decades for weddings, anniversaries or birthday celebrations. I think it has been refurbis...
