a gReat weekend with AwesOme companions (:

I has a wonderful weekend on last Saturday...
it's been sometimes, I hardly have such a fruitful day hanging around with heaps of buddies...
stewpig and I met Mung and P'ng for breaky...
early in da morning.. ( in fact, we were late for an hr... orelse it should be earlier in da morning... :P)
our bad for being late...
sun getting hot... thus we forgo our plan to Chowrasta Market...
and off to my childhood place for breaky.... *Burmah Road, Kopitiam behind Hong Leong~
after lunch...
we off to Beach Street... walk-walk and snap-snap...
wif some missions ahead~ *winkz

no longer a little boi.. but a handsome guy he is ! ^^


after we had our 'lunch break' at Pg Road Chendul



I had a date with my dear housemate, Cole and Jen !!
we only get to meet few hrs once in many mths ever since she moved to KL~ *sniff

we had a great afternoon chill at G lounge~

stewpig went to da pao the Fried Mushroom from Chicago...
ended up, we got warned by the staff there " No Outside Food, Please "

we paid only rm 10.90 for this hell loads of mushroom + big containers of special sauce..
the most impressed part was...
they used the pizza hard cover to pack the mushroom !! *lub da packing !

I was delighted.. as this was the 1st and the only candle + burfday cake for me this year~ :P
the lovely cartoons on the cake represent each of us with our partners~ *winkz

I got my pressie from the fellow katiakz~~

reckon it was also time for us to finally lucky draw the souvenirs YC bought us from Taiwan...
after keeping for a month...


I withdrawn from the lucky draw after gotten the consent from them to take the little Owl Ring !! *weEeee....

they were mad nervous as 3 of them also wanted the bags badly...
unfortunately, only 2 bags for 4 of us to draw...
me withdrawn... still 1 of them will not get it...

* notice Jen's hand was trying to 'exchange' her coin purse with mung's shoulder bag... :P

the beSt Umbrella Pastry in Penang

photos taken for a year..
but today only I take the initiative to blog about this...
I feel bad for untie and uncle... :P
I wasn't any Umbrella Fried fans...
but I am crazy with the one selling at this stall...

the fried things always disappears in a couple minutes once fried up from the hot wok...
people used to order 20/ 30 pieces or etc..
then come back to take after a while...


What's so special with uncle's umbrella fried...?
think because it's not much flour yet very crunchy...
I don't like those fried things which contain heaps of flour... (eg 80% flour, 20% ingredients)
uncle is very generous...
the umbrella fried is made by slices of sweet potato, yam and flour of course...

can see how thick is the mixed ingredients...
unlike those watery with loads of flour + water...



once putting nicely in the mold, uncle will top it with some ground nuts before deeping in to the super-hot wok...


Besides the super yummie Umbrella Fried...
Uncle, auntie's Fried Spring Roll is simply FANTASTIC !!!
I'm always the popiah lover...
after trying so many diff diff type of popiah.. I must give a double thumbs up to this !!
with the very thin skin plus the super heaps ingredients !
oh my.. the turnip is still juicy even after deep fried !
imagine !!

Umbrella-Show~



to eat,
adding some chilli sauce given by auntie is a plus !
serve HOT always nicer~ and crunchier~ :)
business hours, after 1pm to around 5pm everyday except Every Monday (closed)...
the stall is just opposite the Dried Oyster Porridge Shop along Perak Road
