Ayam Ponteh

Steam otak-otak

Nyonya Popiah

Ayam Keluak

Buah Keluak had a hard shell and its originated from Indonesia.

Rempah Udang

Old Town Coffee Shop

The best is always the most simplest. Just like this, a cup of white coffee, 2 half-boiled eggs and roti kahwin toast.

It reminds us of our kids time breakfast.^_^

Email Shock

I received this email from Miss Whale. While reading the mail, i can really felt the presence but apparently......................

Very Shocking.... .
This is a real story of a young college girl who passed away last month in Penang. Her name was Ai Ling. She was hit by a truck.

She was working in a call center. She had a boy friend named Tony.

Both of them were true lovers. They always talked on the phone. She used to be never found without her hand phone.

In fact she also changed her network from Maxis to Digi, so that both of them can be on the same network, and save on the cost. Even when Tony left overseas to finish his masters, they constantly kept in touch.

She used to spend half of the day talking with Tony.
Ai Ling's family knew about their relationship.. Tony was very close to Ai Ling's family as well. (Just
imagine their love) . Before she passed away she always told her friends 'If I pass away please burn me with my hand phone' she also said the same thing to her parents.

After her death, people couldnt carry her body, A lot of them tried to do so, but still cant everybody that had tried to carry the body, the results were the same.

Eventually, they called a person known to one of their neighbours, who can speak with the soul of dead person and who was a friend of her father.

He took a stick and started speaking to himself slowly.
After a few minutes, he said 'this girl misses something here.' Then her friends told that person about her intentions to burn her with her phone.

He then opened the grave box and place her phone and simcard inside the casket. After that they tried to carry the body. It was then moved easily and they then carried her into the van.

All of us were shocked. Ai Ling's parents did not inform Tony that AiLing had passed away as they're waiting for him to come home after his graduation..

After 2 weeks Tony returned and called Ai Ling's mom.......

Tony:....'Aunty, I'm coming home today. Cook something nice for me. Don't tell Ai Ling that I'm coming home today, I wanna surprise her.'
Her mother replied..... 'come home first, I wanna tell you something very important.'

After he came, they told him the truth about Ai Ling.
Tony thinks that they were playing a fool. He was laughing and said 'don't try to fool me - tell Ai Ling to come out, i have a gift for her... Please stop this nonsense'.

Then they show him the original death certificate to him. They gave him proof to make him believe. (Tony started to sweat) He said... 'Its not true. We spoke yesterday.. She still calls me.
Tony was shaking.

Suddenly, Tony's phone rang. 'see this is from Ai Ling, see this....' he showed the phone to Ai Ling's family. all of them told him to answer. he talked using the loudspeaker mode.

All of them heard his conversation. It is the actual voice of AiLing & there is no way others could use her sim card since it is nailed inside the grave box!

They were so shocked and asked for the same person's (who can speak with the soul of dead persons) help again. He brought his master to solve this matter.

He & his master worked for 5 hours. Then they discovered one thing which really shocked them....

Digi 'I will follow you!!!'

Hahahahahahahahahahah.................................................

Twinsky Seafood

If in KK, must go eat seafood. During this trip, we eat at Twinsky Seafood.

This is actually a very big prawn - as big as our plate.
Even though the prawn is big but not "old".

We also eat a lot shells seafood.

Bakuteh - 佑记肉骨茶

If you are in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, 佑记肉骨茶 is a must go place. We exceptionally like the "Alcoholic pork liver" - cook with just the right time interval. Yummy yummy............

One of the greatest problem of this shop is that it opens at 4pm. Moreover, it is always full of customers, like the food is FOC. By the time you finish your food, you will see others standing behind you waiting for your table.

According to the taukeh, he said there are altogether 9 types of different pork bakuteh (based on different parts of the pork). There are liver, intestine, spareribs, meatballs, pork meat, pork tail, stomach, kidney and etc. We don't remember all. Anyhow, a must try restaurant.

Happy New Year 2009!!

Let us all gather round and cheer,
With a drink of wine or an ice cold beer

Perhaps you're like me and don't drink the swill,
Or your like my grandparents who live on pills.
Maybe this world seems harsh at times,
Or its just that most of us just like to whine.

I'd say that this is a great place to be,
It all depends on how we can see.

True we've had bad things in the past,
But we know in our hearts that these will not last.

If we try our best to be simple and pure,
There's nothing our hopes and dreams cannot cure.

So, I don't know the value this is worth,
But lets all try to be happy and heal Mother Earth!

Happy New Year 2009!!!

Merry christmas
