The Baby On The Outside

The follow up post from “The Baby On The Inside“. Finally i got to meet Nikki’s one and a half month old son, Mohammad Darwisy. It was also my first time attending a Malay “45 days old ceremony” thing, and i don’t know what it’s called lol. Here are the pics from the ceremony.

It was a very good experience and i would like to wish Nikki and her hubby a very congratulations. You guys have a beautiful baby boy! Oh, you were wondering why the baby’s hair was shaved? Well, the hair shaved from the baby’s head will be weighed as the price of gold, then that amount of money would be donated to the Mosque. And man, does Darwisy have alot of hair or what?

Din Tai Fung @ Pavilion

Yet another Din Tai Fung branch opening in Pavilion. The other one is located at The Gardens, Mid Valley. Since da bien ren is a fan of xiao long baos, we went there for dinner.

It is just next to Wong Kok in Pavilion, as you enter you’ll see all these chefs cooking in the “aquarium”, just to show you how good they are at making the xiao long baos and their la mian.

First up, xiao long baos, after tasting many xiao long baos from many restaurants, i must say Din Tai Fung makes the best xiao long baos yet. There’s six in a steam box plus the soup inside the xiao long baos is just superb.

For the main course, i ordered the braised beef la mian while da bian ren ordered the hot and sour soup la mian.

Her order came first and i thought it was really good, that was before my order came…

… the braised beef la mian was so good i had to even clean the bowl for them. Thank you da bian ren for the treat <3

GD Showcase 09′

Yesterday i went to UTAR PJ to attend their GD Showcase 09′. Correct me if i’m wrong but my guess is that GD stands for Graphic Design. I was abit in a rush actually… plus i was late, so i didn’t really have the time to admire the artworks. Sigh.

I must say from all the typography collage there, CB, Chi Bai Corrupted Brain captures my attention most. The showcase was separated into a few parts: The Maze, The Cave, etc. The GD students must had put in alot of effort. You guys did a great job. Kudos.

The Maze with photography works.

The Cave with image editing works.

The Rundown Computer Room With Canggih Computers?

After leaving some “I was here” kinda thing on the comment board where i was supposed to actually write my comment, it was time to take a group pic with the UTAR Equine World Horse Sculpture Team.

Boon, Chili, Gino, Mei Quan, Me, Gacky, Jean Cui, Kevin & Jean Liew

Oh btw, the da bian ren stole that name card which i took. Damn cute can? Give it back to me da bian ren!

Some Pepper For Dinner

The other day, the gf and i dropped by Pepper Lunch for our dinner. So why the hell are they even selling food for dinner since their name’s specifically mentioning: Lunch? Oh well, as long as it taste good, i suppose it can be named Pepper Supper too. It kinda has a nice ring to it right?

 

Anyway, bout the taste, it was quite good. I ordered Beef Sukiyaki while the gf ordered Cut Steak With Fried Egg. Maybe i cooked it wrongly this 1st time around causing mine to taste a little funky but the gf’s one tastes way better. Why? She not 1st time eating it ma! You can also order a set deal where u can choose from either a softdrink, soup or ice cream.

 

I took the soup while the gf took the Green Tea Matcha Ice Cream (or something like it). The ice cream was the real deal like.. the REAL deal man! It tasted really good! Pepper Lunch, worth a try. It’s located in Pavilion, opposite J.Co.

Tour de Melaka – Part 1

After a very very long delay, i finally got the chance to go to Melaka. No maps, just the GPS to show the way. The GPS was a very poweful and helpful travel companion. My another companion though on the other hand, weren’t as powerful but makes the trip fun and worthwhile, namely the gf.

First stop we went get some of Melaka’s famous Chicken Rice Ball. It was ok, nothing great. Cause i don’t know where’s the nice one, so we went to the more.. commercial one. But in front of the shop, there’s just this cardboard poster which makes you just wanna.. you know..

Punch it lol. After that we went to have some Nyonya Popiah (whatever that is) just nearby the Chicken Rice Ball restaurant.

Trust me, it sucked. Then we checked into our pre-booked rooms at Fenix Inn, to our surprise the room was quite spacious and really clean, plus the workers there were really helpful too.

We took a short rest and then went out to explore the historical city. Not far from the hotel was A’ Famosa.

Well, it still looks the same except that the fotress do not face the straits anymore as more and more water bodies are being reclaimed for expansion of the city. It now faces… Melaka’s Megamall lol. I made the below pic clickable for a larger version.

That in the distance, my friend, is the Taming Sari Tower and the Eye On Malaysia. Both of these tourist attraction had a surprise for us which i will let u know later. Anyway, that’s all for Part 1 cause i have to go out now. Will cover the rest in other parts!

Just a sneak peak.
