1st day KRABI - 02.04.09

i m back from Krabi for a week and have jus sorted out the pics accordingly( and also to get the rest of the pics from my frens)...was there for 7 days...VERY RELAXING AND VERY TAN AND I MISS OPEN SEA SNORKELLING !

was schedule to depart from LCCT at 12pm Malaysia time but the flight was delayed till 1.45pm..My VERY FIRST DELAYED flight with Air Asia..my previous experience wasnt this bad..anyway..LCCT is more spacious and more comfortable now compared to last year..more retail shops are open now...

since the flight was delayed, i have to called City Hotel@Krabi town to let them know so that they can arrange the transport accordingly as i have booked the transport from airport to our hotel (cost from airport to City Hotel - 400baht(1 private car) ). We boarded the plane at 1.45pm and from KL to Krabi is a journey of 1 hour 20minutes. We were schedule to arrive at Krabi International Airport at 2.05pm Thailand time. ( Thailand is one hour behind us)

Upon arrival, i saw our tour guide (Mr.Rick) holding my name at the arrival hall. From airport to the hotel is a journey of 25minutes. i have booked this hotel name City Hotel at Krabi town for the first 2 nights before we move to stay in Ao Nang. The hotel is very clean and comfortable and what i like best about it was that 7-11 is just right next to the hotel and there is a night market right opposite the hotel.

After we check in, i lied straight on the bed..then my fren suggested that we go buy some snacks and a few bottle of mineral water from 7-11, i say Ok..( will blog later about all the snacks we bought). Then after we return to the hotel, bath and went to the opposite night market to explore and have dinner.

not too sure wat is this.we actually bought this for 5 baht each but when we reach hotel,we couldnt find it...must have accidentally thrown it away...

variety of salads and sticky rice with mango. all at 30baht per plate. we bought the sticky rice with mango..the mango is so so so sweet n juicy..

this one is like thai style otak-otak. and its only 10baht per stick. since we bought other food, we only bought 2 sticks. i find it a bit too dry

variety of ikan bakar price at 30baht per stick...but i m nota fan of fish so i did not buy this..

grilled chicken n fish at 10baht per stick..the chicken was good but the fish tasted weird

glutinuos rice with different fillings, 10baht each.we bought the spicy coconut and yam filling. Personally preferred the spicy coconut feeling, but the yam was very fragrant tho

variety of fruits.price at 25baht per packet. Fruits are very very fresh and sweet>.<

seafood glassnoodle - that was written at the stall. We saw lots of ppl queing up for this so we decided to give it a try. This was awesome..very flavourful and also spicy..personallyi would prefer if this is much more spicy..the glass noodle was very tangy n flavourful..and its only 50baht per plate...

Good Evening Bangkok, 1U

Was at 1U after work to have dinner with Joyce and she decided to bring me to Good Evening Bangkok at New Wing, 1U..if i did not remember wrongly it's near to GAP.

pineapple fried rice with chicken ~ price at rm14.90. Tastewise was Ok Ok only...

good evening combo (consist of mango salad, fried fish cake, money bag and prawn wanton) ~ price at rm16.90. i like this especially the mango salad...

Heard that the green curry is good..will definitely come bac to try again..

my all time favourite Tazo Mango Black Tea

Java Chip with whipped cream

our sisters all time favourite - STARBUCKS Marble Cheese Cake

happy.touched.pampered.protected >.<

Turning 24...

i m turning 24 in about 72 hours..i m going into the mid-20's
if i can live uptill 72 yrs,i have live one third of my life..
although i have not achieve any great achievements in life but i m happy and contented with wat i have now...

2009 hope to accomplish list :
(i) start my studies in May
(ii) my baking classes
(iii) my jewellery learning classes
(iv) a social worker to an orphanage home in Taman Paramount
(v) of course to spend more quality times wif my family and love ones

Looks simple but i m hoping all these 5 can be accomplish this year !

On a non-related note - i miss jian a lot !

The Loaf,Pavillion

There are still many eateries in Pavillion which i have not try out yet..will take my own sweet time to explore it.......

Was going back to Ipoh for the weekend,so i went to The Loaf and bought their famous mini cheese cupcakes for my family to try..

(top - left to right) ~ strawberry cheese, vanilla cheese and banana cheese

(bottom - left to right) ~ green tea cheese, chocolate cheese and almond lychee cheese

Overall, i only like the strawberry flavour. Cheesy and a bit sourish..the rest i find it too cheesy...If i am not mistaken, its rm2.50 each or rm9.50 for half dozen..I think my favourite will still be marble cheesecake from Starbucks and New York cheesecake from Secret Recipe...;)

2009 CNY Reunion Dinner

How's everyone CNY ? Collected many angpows ?

I had a reli great time back at home.....so good that i don't feel like coming back to KL.

Had my first reunion dinner wif mom side on Saturday. Was a sumptuos meal as grandma prepare all of her grandchildren's favourite food.Me,mom and my cousins went for facial in the morning den after that all of us return to grandma's house to help grandma...

(be prepare to see some reli good food pics...only available at my grandma's house)......

Mixed Veggies ~ cauliflower, carrot, abalone mushrooms, scallops, green peas

Hee Hee Ha Ha Prawns ~ stir fried prawns with onions, garlics and soy sauce

Lettuce Wrap ~ this bowl is a mixture of chinese sausages, fried eggs, green peas, water chestnut and mini scallops. The fresh lettuce leaves were so sweet that it can just be eaten like this. The lettuce leaves are use to wrap this mixture. Very delicious !

Yellow Ginger Chicken ~ grandma use the yellow ginger and marinated it with the chicken for 24 hours. And when we fried it,grandma say we mus put the yellow ginger together and fried it so that it will be more fragrant..This is superb delicious!

Braised Chicken Feet with Mushrooms ~ Grandma braised this from early morning with charcoal. For your information, my grandma still uses charcoal to boil soup.

Braised sea cucumber with scallops,mushrooms and minced chicken ~ thumbs up !!

Steam Cod Fish ~ i was never a fish lover but this cod fish was reli fresh..My grandma told me that good fish meat comes in slices..

Stir fry Sotong with dry chillies ~ this is always my favourite dish.

And of course this meal will not be complete without grandma's soup. I always love the soup that my grandma boils.Everytime when i go home,grandma will definitely boil soup for me..I know grandma start boiling this abalone and pig intestines soup from as early as 6am with charcoal and in between grandma has to keep adding charcoal to make sure the soup keeps boiling..when we had dinner at 7pm,the soup was reli flavourful..U cannot buy this anywhere...

A few more days before CNY ends..Have fun everyone !
