girls night out before goodbye

i guess we are just bored of western food

so choose to have Korean food tonight

at Yea Won ipoh garden east

somewhere around Aka Momiji i went 2 days earlier

side dishes

kimchi soup

fried glass noodles

pancake

basically they are taste good to me

i would say is good enough

because we hardly see Korean restaurant in Ipoh

there are a few

but mainly on Korean BBQ??

i guess so...hehe

we are the last customer in the shop

which they close at 10pm

but we still busy taking pictures up and down..lol

i guess the staff must be very angry with us..opps

so went to Frenz cafe for 2nd round

initially we only ordered 2 drinks which we are still full

ice lemon tea & matcha green tea spin

comment for Frenz cafe??

variety are kinda good

price might a little expensive

but taste ain't bad

but the staff and service.....herr herrm..

u get what i mean right??

yes,...thank you...=)

so continue our camwhore section

we are moving from one table to another

and then the 3rd one which is next to a mirror

haha....just wanna have fun

and this is our last day in Ipoh

Chooi Lian & I

on the right -- Sin Ling

who is going back to Perth on Friday

Ivana on the left

leaving to KL

Eternally use to be 12 girls

and now 4 left

when will be the next trip back??

when is our next gathering??

everyone is going back to our reality world

work and study

hmm,....gonna miss my girls so much

hope to get a flight to Perth soon

any day off to KL or back to Ipoh

whichever, wherever i get to see them

had a great holidays with you girls

although we did not go anywhere

as long we spent time together

take care girls

xoxo

lurve

Aka Momiji

seafood pancake

teriyaki chicken with rice

claypot udon

forgot the name for my order...lol

but it is something call egg, chicken with rice

this is another plan which we thought earlier

still thinking of choosing japanese food or korean food

so we use a coin to decide...lol

ya....sounds lame right??

just because we can't decide

so decided to have japanese food

at Aka Momiji

which located at Ipoh Garden East

those shop lot near the 24hrs Mcdonald

hmm,...how was it??

i would say not that fantastic

i will still prefer Waraku in Ipoh

more choices as well

but no harm giving it a try once

they might have something nicer which we did not order

ipoh dimsum

people who born in Ipoh

should know that how yummy is Ipoh dim sum

i can't tell what's the different between HK & Ipoh dimsum

they both are good i would say

might just a little different because of culture

but whoever are now away from Ipoh

will always craving for dim sum

so you will always see long queue during weekends & public holidays

and whenever we are back to hometown

usually that's what in our mind the 1st place

same goes to my holidays this month

plus 2 of my cousins are back too

which they were craving for since they know they are coming back

so we decided to have it this morning

we choose Kou Li at Ipoh Garden Ipoh

because there are only 3 of us

so we did not order as much

but the standard variety were there

"ha gao" "siu mai" "cha siu bao"

my cousin Kimo & lin lin

haha,...must be wondering the name sounds weird

this is what we use to call one another..hehe

everybody has a unique name

anyway i believe my friends who have been to Ipoh

gonna miss all these a lot

because they admit that Ipoh dimsum is really yummy too

so its not only what we said

Ipoh is also one of the heaven of food

just that not everybody knows about it

compare to Penang

Ipoh has their unique taste as well

"nga choi gei" "curry mee" "wanton mee"

there are lots more to mention

basically there are all about food in Ipoh

so unless you have a big stomach

or else you can't finish them in few days

so welcome to Ipoh

but im kind of stranger in Ipoh honestly

because i use to be a geek,..haha

i know nothing other than squash during school time

and i was away ever since i finish my secondary school

plus the changes here and there

i might not even know what's the name for certain area

haha,...i disgrace to people of Ipoh

i will try to find out more and intro to you guys in future

so forgive me k??

and give me some times to figure it out..hehe

7th FEB 10

a new Thai restaurant in Somerset 313
which i think is a nice deco resaturant which doesn't look like Thai restaurant

a very standard dish - sambal Kangkung

which might not too spicy for those who cant eat spicy food
and the kangkung is very fresh
very crispy to munch even without having rice

and this is Pineapple Fried Rice
with my favourite cashew nuts as side plating...hehe

a must to order when having Thai food

Seafood Tom Yum - yum yum.....

my favourite dish among three of them

did some shopping after having dinner at Flying Chilies
although there are only 3 dishes that we had ordered

but i guess that's more than enough for 2 person
which is me and Katherine

finally she manage to get her new clothes for CNY

and a new challenge for her

which is she ask my help to change her look

wahahhaha....sounds so expert.....

anyway it's just a sharing and discussion about fashions

because the limitation of time where the shops are going to close

we took train back to Tampines mall to yum cha

Coffee Club - a 'lau di fang' for us to high tea always

because they open 24 hours which we can chit chat till late night

since we have not sit down chit chat since Dec

really had a great time with Katherine tonight

thanks for the time spent and hope to see you soon =)

standby day....

31 JAN suppose to be my standby day
guess what??
i couldn't sleep since the day before
which i keep logging in to check if they have been activated me
i don't even dare to step out from my house
just because i wanna keep myself fully charged in case i got call up
i couldn't even sleep at night until 4am
i'm tire actually but just too scare to receive call last minute
but thank God i sleep til lunch time on the day itself
for sure i still need to stay home another day
buy home my lunch and finish up the whole series in a day
finally is 10pm and i felt release
because the higher the chance they burned my standby
yeah!! i earn another day off and gonna meet Corinna the day after
i'm happy not because i didn't receive any call
instead i can maintain my roster as i can go home for CNY
yippe!! 14th FEB,.....here i come............=)

our tea time at TCC, Wisma Atria

HKG~04jan10

yeah!! we are back to HKG after SFO

time to shop this time

meeting up and heading down to the shopping street

saw this "gei dan zai" and curry fish ball stall

decided to have some,...their fish ball is very different from ours

is not as crispy as ours but is more chewy

and most importantly is the curry sauce...yum yum!!

walking down to the street

manage to get few clothes and discovered some cute stuffs

eye-ing on some items and may be back the next day
should get some rest after some walk

walk in to this dessert house "Hui Lau Shan"

they have got different style of dessert

and can tell that they like to use mango as ingredients

because you can see most of the choices are mango flavour

this is what i ordered
a set of mango blended ice with rice ball & carrot cake with XO sauce
but instead of trying their dessert
my main reason to have dessert this time is because i need to use toilet
waahhahaa....how can i talking about food and toilet together??....paiseh neh!!

after we finish walking this Granville Street
we decided to go Temple street which is one station away
saw this shop selling mee
we decide to have our dinner here
we ordered wanton soup noodle
look at the wanton...it's so big and numbers of prawns in it
fresh and crispy taste prawn....=p
while we enjoying our food
there is this couple came in and sit next to us
the guy use to talk very loudly and they are actually talking about us
they were curious what language we are speaking
and my colleague feels so umcomfortable
but i just pretend that i couldn't understand them....
the scene looks funny actually...lol
after we have finish our food
we walk down to the temple street and continue our shopping journey

this is Diana,....my accompany for the trip

while the rest of the crew went for KTV
we walk to the Avenue of Stars
which is only 10 minutes walk away from our hotel
nice weather with nice night view of Hong Kong
since i have not taken photos for the last few days
is time for me to have my photo taking section here...hehe

walking down the street by looking at the star's hand print on the floor
and you guess what??
we saw 2 cute guys,...woohoo....
i guess they were those photographer who offer to take picture for visitors
we ended our trip happily...=)

we have a plan to go "Tai Ze" and "Mong Kok" the second day
we have arrive Tai Ze around 10am to have our breakfast
we have choosen a local "cha chan teng"
and this is what i have-congee, "cheung fun" and milk tea
isn't it very localise??..
like what we get to see in movies
they always have congee and fried meehun for breakfast...hehe
this reatarant called "Dai Ga Lok"
it seems like a fast food restaurant for me
because we order in front of the cashier and pay
and queu for your food
some kind of self service too
ya,..after topping up our stomach
is time for us to 'chiong' for shopping
we actually looking for a street in Tai Ze but i were lost
but we are not that bad
we manage to walk from Tai Ze to Mong Kok
which is the street selling electronics thingy
since "Lui Yan Gai" is not open yet
so we started to look around that area
and you guess what??
we shop from 11am to around 4 or 5pm just at Mong Kok
and continue back at Granville Village nearby our hotel
to get stuffs we had eye-ing on the day before
finish everything by 7pm walk back and tabao some food
that's the end of my Hong Kong trip
my very first Hong Kong trip
i had fun, i love the place,.........
and the main thing is i love their shops
at least they sell fashions which is quite my style
and it is very fashionable...hope i get to go there again soon....
