Genting - Joey Concert

we were heading to Joey's concert.. no special feeling since we ain't her fans tho....

they looked lovely... coincidently..they both wore the same-green-polo-tee.. my daddy`uncle`Aaron` Cayden & Jes were not joining us for the concert.. unfortunately.. uncle fell sick in a sudden.. luckily Jes was there.. she helped to look after Aaron and let uncle to take rest at hotel.. Jes accompanied Aaron to play the indoor-theme-park-games... she succeed to utilise her 'pro-technique' to play lotsa games wif Aaron for Free... ""salute~ during that few hrs.. many funny jokes had happened on em.. he he
anyway... we appreciate for her help~!!!
awaiting Joey to come out.. the concert wasn't fulled afterall...
she is so Skinny!!! a lot more skinny than the Joey on screen.. a week before the concert.. I watched her Hk concert at Linna's... she looked far slimmer than previous... was like Sammi ~
last costume... during encore..
it was very worth that we chose to watch the 2nd show... she came out for extra show after the encore session... we 'earned' few more songs which weren't in the planned schedule.. she sang wutever delicated by the audience... one lucky fan got to go up to the stage and sing together with her.. she couldn't help but kept crying throughout the whole song.. no doubt that lucky girl was singing very well too... Cry doesn't make any diff...

the last fw pics taken before leaving the highland..
itz so ridiculous that.. We Din go to outdoor during the whole trip at all... apparently.. I didn't get to wear my jumple which i had spent long time to think which one to bring along...


i kept laughing while seeing the post of this lazy pigguie...

Ah Yat Abalone @ Genting

We had our dinner at Ah Yat Abalone... the foods are OK but the services were Terrible !!!
the waitresses looked like working under unwillingness at all...
they did their parts to serve you.. just for the sake of providing you the whole-course-of services as what you've paid... can hardly hope for a lil smile from their faces.. not daring to require anything from em tho.. we all getting so mad looking at their Million-Faces..
they change plates after every dish... They won't even wait until you finished your foods.. my aunt was eating her foods with the fork we asked for my cousin while they were changing our plates for us.. she was Eating-Halfway.. the waitress took away the fork from my aunt's hand.. she was just So Rude !! my sis was freaked out and looking at her... we all felt so speechless and upset with the services provided...
each of us ordered a set-meal.. I don't favor abalone nor shark-fin, thus I shared the set with Jes...
it starts with a Shark-Fin Dried Scallop Soup as the appetizer.. it was nice..

followed by the main-course - Abalone and Stewed Goose Web with Vege in Ah Yat Special style...

besides the Set... they ordered this Seafood Hor Fun... it tasted not bad too...

I like this, BBQ Sliced Pork (Bacon) stuffed Yam..
Lotus Leaf Sticky Rice.. with dried scallop and shrimp..
Dessert are Fresh Blend Almond Soup and Bird Nest Egg Tarts...

Here's the package menu...

pasta zenmai


koko brought us to Pasta Zonmai for lunch... he had the Unagi Pasta at here a week before when he came down for meeting.. he found it so nice and kept telling here about it... Here we come...
Itz Japanese Cuisine.. but mainly focused on Pasta.. Fusion between Japz + Italian..? the varieties of pasta are a lot... some of the combination sound kinda weird.. but when trying it out... they are Amazing~
The open kitchen they got here...
The dining set are beautiful..
Gyuniku to Nasu to Kinoko no Miso Meat Sauce, Beef, Egg Plant & Mushroom in Soybean-paste Meat Sauce Pasta.. this is nice.. The portion is big.. as the thinly-sliced-beef and the egg plant are a lot... je couldn't finish it tho.. but the sliced beef were rily nice...
Unagi Kabayaki to Onsen Tamago, Roasted Eel & Hot-Spring Egg Pasta... this was what ko ko highly recommended... no doubt.. this is Amazing !!! A special combination for Unagi... there's no sauce or paste on the spagetthi...just the Unagi sauce poured on the Yummy roasted Unagi... broke the hot-spring egg and let the yolk to be mixed up entirely with the pasta.. omg... feel the heaven'ness?? this made the pasta even smooth.. I'm not sure if the pasta here are homemade.. the texture of the spagetthi is very nice..very tender, very yummy!!!!! I found Arabishi does serve Unagi Pasta as well.. I neva try before.. but I think they should be different...
Chicken Teriyaki Set... I like the Salad... served with Khuang's fav Japz salad dressing... the one from here won't be too sweet... just nice !!!!
Agedeshi Tofu.. for lil monster...
Gyuniku to Tarnanegi no Soup Pasta, Beef & Onion Soup Pasta.. this is the curry soup base... another choice is yakiniku if I'm not mistaken..
Sirloin Steak with Teriyaki Sauce.. this is heaven !!! the pic shown it...!! The tenderness of the Sirloin made me melted..
Hot-Spring Egg.. it is always so smooth.. I doubt it is not that popular in Penang.. seldom see it in the menu at most of the Japs Restaurant in Penang.. Linna and I missed the Hot-spring eggs at Jogoya so much... unlimited serves offered at there.. just too bad that we only managed to have one each.. as there were too much foods for us to try out...
Baby Octopus
Macha Crepe, Crepe with Green Tea Ice-cream and Red Bean paste.. This is Amazing ! I missed the crepe in Aussie.. this one can cure the crave-ness of mine.. green-tea ice cream always goes well with red bean paste~ the green-tea ice cream here is just nice.. won't be over-milky.. yum yum ^^
Totariniku to Kinoko no Cream Sauce, Chicken & Japanese Mushroom Cream Sauce Pasta
Green Apple Doughnuts @ OneUtama... something like JCO Daughnut.. still... Krispy Kreme is the Best after ~ have been told that Krispy Kreme is going to open one in KL soon.... is that real...?? would that be as nice as what I had before...?
We chosen the Almond, Choc Nuts, Choc, Black Sesami, Mango and White Choc...

Coffee Bean All-Day-Breaky


yes.. we were just so busy enjoying our breaky...
we're having gud time enjoying breaky at Coffee Bean on weekend morning~ phew~
wondering what are we having..? uh huh...

Smoked Salmon w Scramble eggs on English muffin, salad at the side w Cranberry dressing & Roasted Almond Flakes.. it was the 2nd time I had this.. I did want to try something new.. but just couldn't resist to place this order again..

so does Mung.. she chosen back the same meal as well.. as they are so nice that making us missed em so much..
Chicken on Toasted Foccasia..

Stewpig ordered this Corned Beef Bagel... it was on the special menu..
I was the one urged him to order this actually, as I like Bagel so much.. since I already ordered the Salmon.. I couldn't have 2 anyway...
it has thin slices white onion mixed with the corned beef.. It was yummy... itz great that Stewpig likes it very much.. ^^
No doubt it tasted delicious.. but the serving is inconvenient for eating.. the best way to eat it is to use ur hand, like the way eating a burger... Stewpig first eating it with the knife & fork.. but the beef just kept spreading out when he tried to cut the bagel.. the whole serving looked really ugly & messy just after the first Cut... no matter how you eat this inconvenient thingy.. the beef will still keep falling down from the side...


I had the black coffee which comes with the Set Breaky.. Stewpig ordered the Iced Caffe Latte while Mung had the Caffe Latte...
Jess was not in the mood that morning, with no reason... She thought she would be cheered after having this Rapsberry White Choc Cheese Cake.. the answer was.. Not At All!!
the Mocha Frappucino is far to compare with the Dark Mocha Frappucino in Starbucks~ Please try both out and do comparison!!!!! one is Rich wheareas the other one is simply Sweet..

As a conclusion, I do enjoy the breaky served in Coffee Bean.. but NOT to its beverages.. OMG.. I can't rily taste much coffee aroma in the Latte.. it looks Huge.. but tasted watery.. itz like half of it was actually hot water instead of steamed milk/ xtra shot of espresso.. Especially the Iced 1.. stewpig & I were freaked out when we tried the 1st sip.. itz like Melted-Ice-coffee-drink.. (kopi zui)

notice the Spring Onion that popped out from the plastic bag that holding by mr Stewpig..? ha ha

bon odori

19th July, Saturday nite..
Attended dinner treat by Mr & Mrs Reuben...
Venue: Mizi Restaurant, New World Park
Time: 1930
lil gift for this lovely couple~ ^^
many people recommended the Set Menu to me many times.. it was the 1st time I dining in at Mizi..
Just like everyone says.. the foods are delicious... varieties of set meals... and the most important thing is the Reasonable price that they offered... Worth a try~
The set usually comes with a choice of drink, soup, main course and Free Flow Ice-Cream !!
You will definitely leave no extra space in ur tummy....
the homemade-Mushroom-Soup is nice and famous in da house.. I had a spoonful from Xandra.. while I ordered my fav Pumpkin Soup..
I can't remember what my main course called... as there are too much from the menu.. all the incommon names.. every meals ordered from us were nice.. and the portion were big..


Finally.. I got here.... !!!! luckily.. we happened to reach here on time.. not more than 5 minz after our arriving.. the fireworks began... *winkz.. and this yr.. I got him by myself too~ ^^
I've missed out 2 years of Bon Odori as I was in Aussie.. while browsing through the pics they taken during Bon Odori.. was kinda upset.. too bad, this yr Mung wasn't here with us...
the must-get-home-thingy while attending Bon Odori have to be the Japanese water balloon.. ( I like the tiny one... ^^ ) and the souvenir fan that having the words "Bon Odori" printed on top... if arriving there early.. could play the Catch-Gold-Fish at the Japanese corner...
Apparently, I didn't get none of them... since I got there So Late~ *sigh... I was so disappointed while seeing the crowd taking the balloons and fan walking here and there...
Basically, we spent less than half an hr at esplanade.. after the fireworks, every stalls started to pack.. therefore, we made our move to leave there too...
I'm glad that you guys were with me at this special moment..
bumped-into..
this was the First pic taken with my sweetheart, Mi Mi Stef.. she has been tracked in the busy busy traffic while the fireworks was beautifully popping in the sky...
We off to RED to meet up wif Xandra.. she was having her after-party at there...
At last, we decided to settle ourselves at BED since RED is far too noisy for us to katiakz-talk...
I supposed I didn't meet E Lin since the day I left PCGHS... coincidently, she happened to know LAo Pek's gang too... they were at downstair while we were hae'ing at upstair..


20th July, 2008..
An important day for my mate, Xandra & Reuben announced to be Hubby&wifey~ *weEee~
I'm glad that being invited to share this special moment with em~ Thx ling.. :)

see how this lil-mOnster acted like a super-duper-pampered-baby on my shoulder... He is Cute~ ^^ *muaRksSss...
