: : Kuih : :

Granny : Want to mum-mum some kuih? Nice wor!

With my aching feet, I slowly walked down the stairs. Been an extremely long day but finally event is OVER.

Perk up a bit when I saw the chai kueh. Given to Granny by her friend that lives nearby.

There are two versions here :

Salted Veggie Filling

Mangkuang Filling

Salted Veggie Filling

I’ve never liked this filling but others do. The one we had didn’t taste salty at all. Some other taste pop up instead. Anyway, still deserves a posting.

Mangkuang Filling

My favourite! Can eat this kuih alone for lunch and I’m already happy. Oh yeah, Uncle Cyril mentioned today that mangkuang is actually Spanish Turnip. Mangkuang is a great filling for many kuihs including spring rolls (egg rolls).

Chai kueh means vegetable kuih. However, note that sometimes there is a pork or chicken filling in it. Highly addictive especially with the mangkuang filling? Why? Mangkuang actually tastes a little bit sweet when it’s cooked.

Couldn’t eat more than two pieces. Stress level still kind of high so appetite wasn’t there.

Enjoy the pics!

Lian Bee Mooncake

Ordered Mooncake for my sis last year. Paid RM200 just to courier to the US!! Aiyo. Oh well, she was happy. That was the point.

Airline Meals

MAS is there! When I travel again, will start taking pics and send it to this website just for a lark.

: : Humour : :

Another long and tiring day. Running around making sure the stage and seating arrangements are fine. Too many changes.

Then again, I did have a ray of sunshine to perk me up. Actually, it was more of irony than anything else.

Notice the name of the drink in the picture.

Those living in UK (or used to) should be able to pick up the joke pretty quick.

Had such a good laugh at Expert Food Court, Tabuan Jaya.

For those who haven’t pick it up yet, here is a hint. It’s the 2nd meaning. Yeah, a bit vulgar but the Brits are famous for teasing people if they like you. On the other hand, they will also be sarcastic if they don’t like you. :p

Wonder if anyone there ordered the drink in English? :p

: : Food Treasure Map : :

A major project. An interactive map on where to find restaurants in Malaysia. Only in my head the moment. But maybe in the near future?

Any thoughts anyone? Seriously need a lot of help for compilation. Especially for a beginner. 🙂 Thinking of maybe a FLASH proggie but not familiar with it. YET.

: : Fish Ball King, Expert Foodcourt : :

Lunchie-lunchie! Well, as the Koreans would say it. Or rather, Koreans that I know. :p

Went to Expert Foodcourt in Tabuan Jaya for lunch today. The ladies all decided to take care of their figure so had tanghoon (glass noodles) soup from the Fish Ball King stall. It’s still a tasty dish though!!

Fish Ball King is a franchise in Kuching and this was one of it’s many outlets. You can pick and choose what you want inside the soup but it’s easy to forget how much it will cost at the end. Ranges from RM3 to RM5 depending on what you choose.

The guy manning the stall looked at me funny when I asked permission to take some pics. Thought I was taking pics of him!! Cheh!!

Pics of the soup were a bit blur so sharpen it a bit but still not satisfied. Think I forgot to set the settings to closeups. Oh well. It’s food anyway.

Another great place to eat tanghoon soup is at the stall in Carpenter Street, in front of a Chinese Temple. Non-halal though. Not too sure about Fish Ball King although it only serves seafood and no pork. So, should be alright but up to you chaps.

: : Making the Day Sweet : :

Long long long day today. Sigh. Not one of my best days. Everything went wrong. But, cheered up by an intriguing stress ball from the IT guys. Those guys there always cheer me up. 🙂 I’m always learning something new from them.

WCN : Must return the lemon wor!

Okay okay okay.

DF : I’m amazed that you blog everyday and still cannot FTP. Anyway, have some liquorice!

Haha! That was a good one. Hey! I’m not an IT background person what!

WCN : I think you will go into IT one day…

We’ll see. My current job is interesting. Tiring but interesting.

WCN : Your pics are interesting. Take a pic of the sweets and slice it in half and make everyone guess what it is.

Too lazy. Besides, sweets will always be sweets what.

Time out. Had to rush back to arranging something.
