: : Change of Address : :
Well, it’s *partially* done but have moved most of the important stuff now.
New address for mum-mum’s is http://www.mum-mum.info/blog.htm.
Bit slow bandwidth but it’s FREE! Thanks to Mr. T! Note that the Blog*Spot url will be closed in the next few weeks.
This doesn’t include migration to MT, yet. Another headache. Well, I’m being optimistic. Imagine having to transfer for 12 months worth of pics and archives. *SHUDDER*
Food posts will go up later tonight!
Ciao!
: : Kuching Fest Part I : :
As promised, some of the pics from the Kuching Food Fest.
BBQ Chicken
Ahhhhh! The smell of BBQ chicken wings. Didn’t take any. Saving for other foodie goodies. A point of interest : Sugarbun and KFC always put up a booth for fast food. But not as popular as the other stalls. Prices too expensive mah!
Bamboo Chicken
Surprise? An Iban delicacy and one of my favourites. However, didn’t buy the meal because it’s pretty hard to finish one bamboo-filled-with-chicken between 2 people.
Lok-lok
Definitely a favourite among all. Quick snack or a meal in itself, it’s a feast for all! And I just luv the baby squid. Yum! Fattening though. Fried stuff. Even offers Bishop’s Noses! LOL! Translation : the chicken’s butt! I don’t like it but other Asians do.
Well, that’s enough for today. Part II would hopefully be up tomorrow at a new url.
Watch this space tomorrow night.
: : Getting Full : :
No, it’s not me but rather the account I’m having at Blog*Spot.
Why Blog*Spot? Well, when I first started blogging, I didn’t know much about hosts and how cheap it was. Now, am 2 months and 300 pics older and wiser. Then again, it helps to have a generous cousin who was willing to host mum-mum. 🙂
So, will only post one last blog later on tonite. Will be busy this weekend transferring the files.
Don’t panic. Repeat : DON’T PANIC!
mum-mum is not going away, just moving to a new home.
Hopefully, will be up by tomorrow afternoon.
I *HOPE*.
: : Little Lebanon, Renovated Courthouse : :
Pam : Are all security guards this friendly? Helping you to park your car and opening your door to get out?
Before anyone starts wondering who Wena really is, she owns a very humble green Proton Iswara and not a flashy Merz. I took Pam (who is from KL) to the Kuching Fest where all the food stalls were. We also walk quite a fair bit around the area. Also, check out two Honda models : Jazz and City. Very nice. Better stop before I digress further.
After the Kuching Fest, we drove to the newly renovated courthouse to have tea and dessert at a new restaurant called Little Lebanon. A Lebanase themed restaurant, it was recently opened to the public on Wednesday, in conjuction with the opening of the courthouse. As we drove in, the security guard guided us into the parking lot. I think he was more worried about us banging a YB’s Mercz than for my car getting scratched. Still, he graciously opened my door to help me out and chit chatted with us for awhile. Pam was most impressed. Then again, she is most impressed that I can get the waitresses and waiters wrapped around my finger. :p It’s called being charming AND courteous. :p
I actually took photos of the menu but as the waiters and waitresses starting gesturing wildly, I pretended to take a picture of Pam instead. Phew! Close call. Anyway, the pics didn’t come up well so doesn’t matter.
We ordered some Arab sweets. No turkish delight though, thank goodness. Those sweets are extremely sweet! We had something else equally sweet but not so sweet. The green stuff are pistachios, I think. Didn’t get the names of these sweets. Too tired to ask so much from the waitress and poor thing look so nervous. New to the job.
Anyway, that’s it for tonite. Address for the restaurant:
