Yum Yum Thai...

Hey, tonite we feel like having some Thai food for dinner but not the exotic cuisine at Ayuthaya or the high end restaurant just something light, simple & of coz good Thai dish. Ermm..don't you agree that hawker food stalls offer variety of food and value for money and sometimes its D'Best! Just like eating at the famous Gurney Drive Hawker Centre in Penang or Jonker Street, Melaka. We would even make ourselves queue up for a bowl of Laksa, Cendol, ABC, Kueyteow, Rojak Pasembor and what not just because of the yummy taste!

Nways, we had some nice Thai food at the small 'Thai Bazaar' here in our neighbourhood....
Nope! no long queue but good number of customers come n go...

one Thai Laksa for me please, err... Tomyam Thai also nice *wink*

The Laksa finished pretty fast...!

phew...lucky I got mine :-)) honestly, my 1st time eating Thai Laksa.  
Never tasted it in Bangkok or Phuket.... Interesting with some green curry taste like. *nice*

     Next... sôm tam? or kerabu mango?

Kerabu Mango it is....

Okay peeps before I make you feel hungrier...I better stop right now & say good nite! 

Till my next entry on other stuff than FOOD...food...FOOD.

Chawan @ CITTA mall Ara Damansara....Now OPEN!!! Ooh yeah.. you guyz must be wondering what's CITTA and where? Hmm...a new hang-out place for Ararians & the neighbourhood. Ala dekat je jalan nak pegi Subang Airport (SkyPark) ataupun lebih senang masuk kat jalan sebelum Paws dekat Sime Darby showhouse tu. Kalau nak senang Google map je takpun GPS la ye, coz my direction memang selalu failed lebih-lebih lagi nak meng-explain kat orang *sowey*...  

Main "Chawan" at Bangsar this is the 2nd branch....(same owner)

 My favourite dish of all...Lontong & Chicken Rendang. D'Best! (rasa sama sedap!)

Travel... Lifesytle...Fashion...Photography...?


Lately, all these magazines have become my closest friends more than ever, since I've got to do a lot of reading and 'research' particularly on the Travel section.  But, Hey! seriously it's a FUN job.  I always been the Fashion & Lifestyle magazines freak anyway and now doing it for work purposes, no problem at all...my pleasure! Plus a free copy on every latest issue huhu..that I luv even more :-)

Today was my "Pampering Friday", had a five hour stretch of 'beautifying' process at the salon for hair treatment, mani-pedi & facial.  I feel darn GOOD! Perfect day indeed and of course a lot of reading too at the salon..ehemm.

Wokay people nitey nite! Nah, I'm not going to bed yet will continue with my online shopping spree *weeee*
Enough on Jumpsuit now Maxi dress fever...!!!!

72 Heritage Cafe....

Quickie updates...

Tadi ada lunch meeting kat tempat biasa Kota Kemuning tapi bukan Kota Permai Golf Club macam selalu. Hari ni ubah selera kat restoran baru (baru tak baru dah 3 minggu jugak la bukak). Dari luar dah suka sangat apalagi bila masuk je dalam restoran tu terus zasssss ambik gambar...

tengok peti karun ni teringat peti Tok Nda kat rumah "Cendrawasih"...
selalu takut nak bukak...takde apa pun hihihi

SINGER menawan keluarga bahagia!!! huhu klasik...

Ketuhar zaman Inggeris jenama 'BELLING'...ini memang terpaling klasik & antik!!!!

okay...okay ni lah dia interior Heritage Cafe...penuh ngan barang-barang antik yang meng"WOW"kan mata

 nampak tak meja solek (dressing table) kat tepi sudut tu...
macam citer hantu Deanna Yusoff CHERMIN ....*eeeeeerrrr*

Sebenarnya ada ambik gambar penuh cermin tu cuma blur sikit almaklum camera phone...apa-apa pun terpesona sangat mengambik gambar barang-barang antik semua ni terlupa nak ambik gambar makanan yang kami order. Haihhh...! Singapore Bee Hoon, Penang Kueteow and Chicken Chop dah habis dimakan tak sempat ambik gambar.  Makanan ok sedap sambal belacan dia memang Nyonya Melaka style.  Owner dia orang Penang (suami) & Nyonya Melaka (isteri).  Oh ye barang-barang antik kat atas tu dia jual kalau terminat boleh je beli nanti Uncle tu bagi special price tapi kena tengok yang ada tag PINK saja (macam sale kat Parkson la).

Kalau nak pergi tengok sendiri & rasa sendiri makanan kat  72 Heritage Cafe, ni alamat dia...

Tapi untuk tidak menghampakan para pembaca sekalian..chewah:-))) nah tengok ni, makanan lain yang sedap-sedap di restoran lain...

Thistle Port Dickson Resort....

Halooooooooooooooooooooooo......still remember me?? It's been ages since my last entry huh! The time now is already past "Cinderella Time" (after midnight) finally I have the time to update my poor 'abandoned' blog ..sob sob sob :-(  As my late mother used to say "always keep your promise!"  So...here are tonnes of the photos during our "Thistle Town" weekend getaway! When was that?? Many weeks ago for sure but still less than a month. A bit tight up with "work" lately.  Anyway,  the said date was clearly printed on almost every pix ...

at the reception...

Since we reached PD a bit early just before noon, still have a few hours before the check-in time at 3pm! Sitting pretty at the reception won't speed up the housekeeping process anyway...

JJCM (Jalan-Jalan Cari Makan...angin)  at Teluk Kemang ;-)

not sure  what was I pointing at...hmmm

Banana Boat...any one? No! common reason:  too hot...

obviously this Mee Bandung Muar wasn't too hot for Lunch!!! 
Taste-OK la nothing special. 

Back to Thistle...


Deluxe Room Sea View...
 
View from the Room....

 how long was the stay again??? 2D 1N our own 'minibar' stock ;-)
Luckily we brought sufficient snacks & drinks coz nothing in the Minibar!!


outside the room at the verandah...updating fb,twitter(as usual its a must)

Time to explore Thistle Town!
The Private Pool & Bar....ehemmm who's that guy;-))
"no close-up photo please..." elehh dia takut nampak gems la tu

Thistle Private Beach...
Cozy Gazebo...very windy at nite!

Midnite Silhouette...

Overall it was a great weekend at the lovely "Thistle Town"! Except the Filipino in-house band was  horrible no wonder less people at the bar. Something that the hotel management should look into since the place is superb & classy!!!! 

Okie dokie...till my next entry on OMAN, the unforgettable trip ever! Stay Tuned....

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to my Papa and to ALL the Daddy's, Walid, Abah, Ayah out there!

Have a great Sunday everyone!

XoXo
