If I’m not mistaken, this was one of the great works, probably the first, of the late Yasmin Ahmad – undoubtedly a true Malaysian at heart. I saw it on television then and was so impressed and inspired… …that I sat down and wrote this story to use as one of the reading passages in [...]
Well, I went out with the young ones, Ryan and Julia, again…and this time, it was for breakfast. Julia would have left by the time this post gets published and Ryan by this coming weekend, so why not? It will be quite sometime before they will be back and I will get to see them [...]
I am sure everybody can remember from this post that I received these Marks & Spencer’s goodies from coffeencookies via Annie-Q when she came to town… *recycled pic* The puffs weren’t too bad. I liked the pastry a lot – very thin and crispy layers and there wasn’t too much blueberry so it was just [...]
I am sure everybody can remember the nice noodles that I had at this place recently. Well, I went back to the vicinity a few days later but I did not have those noodles again. Instead I decided to try what they have at this coffee shop on the other side… This particular one is [...]
I mentioned in an earlier post that I did not have any photos to share as I did not take any when Annie-Q was in town but Facebook friends of hers would be able to see the ones she took as she had shared a whole lot of them there. Ok…ok…just for those of you [...]
These came from Russia with love… …or one of them, at least – the red box of creamy wafers with Russian words that are Greek to me. The packet of choco minis is German-made. They were given to me by an ex-student, Ryan, who is currently home from Russia for the summer holidays. We met [...]
Well, she was. Annie-Q was back in town – I guess everybody would know it by now as I did mention this in an earlier post. She’s gone back to KL now after an eating frenzy during the few days she was in town. Those of you who are her friends on Facebook would have [...]
There were some noodles left in the house the other day – probably half a kg of it. Usually, they will sell the noodles in 1-kg packs but my missus had already cooked half of it several days earlier and stuffed the rest in the fridge. Now, I don’t know if it’s a woman thing or what [...]
If not for those of you who sent me some last year here and here, I would not have had any…for the simple reason that they were way too expensive and I would not want to spend my money buying those extravagantly-expensive mooncakes to eat. After all, I am not really crazy about those and [...]
When I was grumbling about the kolo mee I had the other day, an ex-student told me via Facebook about this place… …among the shops at the beginning of Jalan Kampong Datu near the Land & Survey building here. He said the the noodles there were very nice – definitely not like kampua nor like [...]
