Happy "Frog" Day

Ok this is a very belated bday post but I still wanted to post this up. Cindy was the mastermind behind this birthday surprise; she contacted us secretly without Kah Tuck's knowledge.

The plan: Cindy would bring Kah Tuck to Chilis for lunch and then she'll use the toilet excuse to meet us at MPH. Before that Sam and I would go buy the movie tickets for Ninja Assassin which KT wanted to watch (according to Cindy). Then Cindy would go back to meet KT and we would be following her from behind. The funny thing was KT didn't even realised that we were standing right next to his table for quite some time as he was busy reading the menu!! Haha and then we shouted surprise!!!
AND he teared. AWWWWW well ALMOST teared to be exact.

This really reminded me a lot about all our previous birthday surprises which was individually unique and original. And come to think of it, The Frog never had a birthday surprise during college days as it was always near our exams. So, this would definitely be a memorable one for him =)) And I'm very sure it made his day, grinning from ear to ear the whole time.

Tenji

Finally I went to Tenji after so long! First things first, in case you didn't know, Tenji is a Japanese buffet restaurant. Not really Japanese as there are Chinese and Western food too. Something like Jogoya if you are wondering. They have various promotions going on so go ahead and check out their website www.tenji.com.my

This is for Kar Wei: We ( My mum and I ) sat at the same exact table as WE did the last time!! ) It was purely a coincidence. Cool eh? Hehe and somehow they had more food compared to the last time we went. Hmm I wonder why...

The drinks section

They have LOTS of drinks. From tea to coffee to juice to carbonated drinks.

Top left: Tea jars , Top right: Coffee maker, carbonated drinks

Bottom: Juices and dessert (The chocolate fountain is no longer there)

Top left: Coconut. Don't worry, it is not as pathetic as it looks in the pic. There was only 1 left when I took this pic.

Top right: Some icy dessert by Baskin Robbins. I didn't try this one.

Bottom: Kindori. It is a Japanese ice cream where they mix fruits with ice cream and blend them together in that machine.

They had a few other stalls outside which includes the BBQ crab, dim sum, ramen, more BBQ food. I think the crabs stole the spotlight :)) It definitely got my attention. Oh and I thought I ate a lot when I noticed the guy sitting behind me ate even more! Since we arrived till they left, he has been eating crab non-stop!! The whole crab times 7-8 maybe?? Or even more!! Haha I called him my Champion. Wanted to take a pic with him but he looked fierce and might even scold me for disturbing him savouring his 10th crab!! Haha

Top: The teppanyaki section where you place numbered clips into the bowls for the food of your choice and they will send them to your table when it's ready.

Middle: Steam section where you are required to place the clips into the bowl too. Portion is relatively small so I would advice you to place more than 1 clip to avoid the trouble of going back there again.

Bottom: Chinese food section where they have the clams, crab, rice, prawns, etc. I guess they change the menu every now and then as it is a bit different compared to the last time I went there with Kar Wei.

They had shabu-shabu too but I forgotten to post up the pics.

Left (Top): Sashimi. Not as fresh as I expected it would be. It was almost the end of lunch hour when I took these pics so the trays are almost empty. No pics of the classic oyster. All gone! LOL
Left (Bottom): Sushi. This I must must must comment. NOT NICE!! Super hard and no taste!! I think they didn't add vinegar to the rice. And the rice taste weird. Doesn't taste like the normal Jap rice.

Right: Giant sample of sushi rolls. But I didn't order them, as I'd sort of expect the rice to be super hard as well.

Overall: Very disappointing!! The best place for Jap food is still Eyuzu at Eastin Hotel or Genji at PJ Hilton!! Super fresh sashimi and authentic Jap food. But the truly truly authentic Jap food can be found somewhere in Subang. Forgotten the name and place but I will surely blog about it the next time I go there. Its chef is a Japanese man and they serve normal Jap food, like what they would usually eat at home and not sushi and sashimi.
Places like Jogoya, Shogun, Tenji has lots of variety and they are so-called Japanese restaurants but the food doesn't taste Japanese at all.

Ok back to Tenji. I'll try not to divert too much. Heehee

Top: Cookies! Yummy! I would say that Tenji has the most choices of drinks and deserts!
Bottom left: Cakes. Ok it looks empty because like I've mentioned earlier on that I took these pics at the end of lunch hour.
Bottom right: More cakes
I actually took more pics than these but somehow I forgotten to post them as well. Nevermind. Oh and how can I forget this. The Baskin Robbins counter took the spotlight now instead of Haegen Daaz. HD got kicked to a corner outside and it seemed abandoned.

Ok sooooo now, would I go back Tenji?? I would in the future when there's another promotion but not in the near future =))

Take note: Their promotion ends on the 30th of Nov 2009. So hurry up!

Yummylicious

Looks good? It is what we call claypot chicken rice. But this one is a bit special, so it also has a longer name; Kampar Claypot Chicken Rice(Charcoaled). I guess they are trying to tell the customers that it is cooked with charcoal and not gas. The restaurant is called Choong Kee which is situated near Atria Shopping Complex, next to Dominos Pizza. Sometimes you are expected to wait up to an hour before food is served! This is how popular this pot of rice is. It is 7 Ringgit for 1 pot or you can order the big one for 2 which is 13 Ringgit.

Even if the sky is falling down

...you'll be my only, no need to worry

Oh gawd I can't help it but I am addicted to Jay Sean's Down featuring Lil Wayne. Ok the lyrics are not superb, it is simple and not much meaning to it but I just have this pull towards it. It makes me feel happy :)) I've been listening to it a gazillion times. I might even consider setting it as my ringtone. But most prob I wont because my phone is 24 hours on silent mode. Haha


On another note, Nikki's fur got stuck to the fan and some of it came off. She panicked. I hugged her and said "I love you baby, don't worry" She gave the fan a tiny nudge and went away. Haha

Living a humanly life once again

I suddenly had this urge to blog. Maybe because I abandoned my blog for SO long. Ok so here are the updates peeps! The following however took place over a few days and at different places.

Watched 2012 with Deary at Tropicana City mall. Well if you have read my previous posts, you would know that I have rant countless times about how I dislike going to this mall. EXCEPT for movies. They have the best seats ever! Clean, comfy, stinky smell-free, spacious (Good for ppl with long legs) and air-condition at an appropriate temperature. Unlike some where it makes you feel as if you are in a freezer instead of a cinema. And why did I mentioned stinky smell-free? It's because of my experience at Midvalley. There's this particular cinema, or maybe multiple, that has a horrible smell! It smells like puke! How can anyone tolerate such thing?? Having to bear with the smell throughout the entire movie. I'm so not letting myself go through such thing again.

Warning: Spoiler ahead!!( Don't read this section if you have not watched the movie)

Ok back to the movie. Don't watch if you don't feel like going into a depress mood. I don't know about the rest but I felt depressed after watching it; having to watch the entire world destroyed by Mother Nature and there's nothing anyone could do about it. Except having to run away. But to where?? Outer space?? Nope!! Only the VVVVVIPs or those who pays 1 billion euros could board the special ark that could protect them from the tsunami caused by the massive shifting of the earth's plates due to the Sun's eruption. This movie also revolves around a family and how they escape the inescapable disaster. So, how did this ordinary family who ain't special nor rich board the ark? Go watch the movie and find out more!! Besides the depressing part where EVERYTHING gets destroyed, the movie also incorporated some values; a parent's love for their children is undeniable and some parts on humanity. Well it did affect me a bit on how I think, so go watch and get affected! For the better of course :))

Up: Mummy's grilled chicken with grilled vegetables and rice

Bottom: My grilled chicken with potato salad and fresco salad

Ok this is random but I loveee Nandos so I HAD to upload the pics here. Ok actually it is not random after all since I just had this for dinner. My current favourite side lines from Nandos are the potato salad and grilled vegetables. Somehow I never liked their Peri Chips although I'm a potato freak. The Fresco salad would have been nicer if they have added some vinegar or olive oil.

Went to Pavillion today. I just love that mall. It is so shopper-friendly except for the soon-to-be outcome like KLCC - overcrowded with non-genuine shoppers, but just lepakers. We (Mummy and I) had Subway for lunch. It's actually quite worth it when there's promotion, rather than eating McD which is overpriced and not worth the money for the kind of food quality and moreover it is not that healthy. To avoid the crowd, go in the morning so you could enjoy shopping and not bulldozing your way through the crowd. Parking in Pavillion is rather expensive so what we did was, we parked at Starhill and pay a nett price of 5 ringgit. Take note, this is only applicable to weekends and after 6pm. Parking rates are at hourly basis on weekdays.

Next movie on my list: A Christmas Carol

Alright that's all folks! =))

I don't want to be reminded of it. It's haunting my mind and I can't get rid of it. I'm trying my best not to think about it. But the truth is I can't run away from it. I've had enough of crying and not being able to sleep, waking up every morning with that being the first thing popping into my head. I just hope that it won't happen to me. I can't handle such an impact. It's just too much for me already.
