During my childhood days, we would grow our own corn in the vast empty space in one corner of our house compound. We would germinate the seeds first by soaking them in water and I particularly loved the part where one of us would use a stick to poke a hole in the ground and [...]
It was my brother-in-law’s birthday on Sunday, so we all went out for dinner at the Sweet Family Restaurant where the food is cheap and delicious…and the service is ultra-fast! There was a birthday cake, of course! The daughter ordered this blueberry chocolate cake from Marcus… …this guy who runs his business from his home [...]
When I was in Kuching over a week ago, my cousin, Lindy, gave me these – Scottish all butter shortbread, Royal Edinburgh Brand… She knew how much I loved them – well, who wouldn’t, after reading all my posts on them? Hehehehehe!!! Actually, she gave me another packet of shortbread fingers of the same brand [...]
Well, unfortunately, it wasn’t that good… I am talking about the Roti John that I bought the other day. I’ve seen the name at a lot of places, even at roadside burger stalls, but I never bothered to check out what on earth it actually was. So I bought one the other day, D for [...]

When I phoned in to make my reservation, I was informed that the government rate was RM135 nett per room, inclusive of continental breakfast for two. “Continental?” I thought…and I imagined a cup of coffee and two [...]
I attended the wedding banquet held to celebrate the marriage of my sister-in-law’s son to his radiant bride at this restaurant in Kuching… There was, of course, the cutting of the wedding cake… …and the pouring of the wine… …followed by the toast… The dinner started off with the Four Seasons… …which included some sushi [...]
After the tea ceremony and the photo-taking session at my sister-in-law’s place on Saturday morning, it was time for lunch. They had the food catered by some restaurant at 3rd Mile – I do not know exactly which one it was as the guys doing the home delivery were only conversant in Mandarin but I [...]
We interrupt our usual programme for a commercial break… LOL!!! Malaysia’s own franchise, Secret Recipe, has opened its own outlet here in Sibu… It is located at the Sibu Bus Terminal vicinity in the newest shop lots to the right – facing the main road (Jalan Pahlawan) next to Pahlawan Cafe…and for those who are [...]
