Peppino Italian Restaurant, Golden Sand Bt Feringghi - burfday celebration for May babies...

8th May' 09...
we had a gathering dinner at Peppino Italian Restaurant, Golden Sand Batu Ferringghi before it closed for renovation..
it was a birthday dinner for May babies - Annie.. Peggy je and Daryl the je fu..
this Italian Restaurant was on going for 17 years...
decided to renovate and re-open for fine-dining Western Restaurant...
reason being.. I-Do-Not-Know...

there was free wine, free-flow all nite long...
without charging any single cent for it !! how worth is it !!
Red or White for your choices.. both so nice !! so smooth~
apparently, it would be a tipsy nite for us den... :P

Silly Me thought there're few weeks more to go before it closes for renovation..
stewpig did not join us to dine in here due to company-kick-off-day...
how wish to try out the foods here with him again..
there're still a lot that I would like to try..
especially the dessert... Tiramisu/ Dark Choc Ice-Cream and etc....
wut a shame... :(

long table of us...
we were so nOisy... simply spoilt the beautiful and romantic atmosphere in the restaurant..
guess the customers around us will curse us along the nite... :P
what to expect...
17 adults + 3 babies sitting at long table.. at the center of the restaurant..
Ryan, Stewpig, Dustin, Pei & Wah Kor were absent..
but Soo Yee is backed from s'pore..
yet Michael came to visit us from KL !! yo hoo~~
we got Michael to bought us this bag.. and gave mummie a surprise... Happee Mama'z day ~ ^^
Bread Stick with tOmatoSalsa + Olive Oil...
on da table before we arrived...
so nice & fResh !!
whole bottle of Olive Oil is there for us to add on as much as we like....
SO NICE !!!!
Homemade Bread... white, multigrain or seeded...
hot & sOft...
SEE!!!!!!!!!
they sell RISOTTO too ~!!!
I believe this will be the traditional one !!! I was so dying to try...
BUT !!!
it got only 1 choice with mushroom.... yet there're varieties of meals that I would like to try on...

I THOUGHT I would want to try the risotto with stewpig some day..
Who Knows..??
It was the last nite before renovation !! *sniff...
Pumpkin Soup... with couston on top.. ^^
Among the list of soup... I reckon this is the best..
as pumpkin is all the while my fav !! *weEee....
some of them... refused to order it when heard ' huh? pumpkin? ' ' mai la..' ' gerli lo... '
when it served... everyone rated this as the nicest among others !!!

Veggie Soup with Garlic Bread...

clearer... bit sour...

Seafood Soup with Cuttlefish, Shrimp and etc...

We made our own PizzasSssss...

actually heaps of ingredients are available for the choices..

such as pepperoni/ salami/ mozerella cheese/ wutever cheese/ anchovies/ olives/ smoked salmon/ lamb sausage/ tomato and etc etc.... alot a lot more...

due to the pizzas were ordered for sharing...

thus, we need to consider everyone's liking... could only order those common ingredients...

Shell Pasta Ariabiatta... tomato based and a little bit spicy with garlic... fully vegetarian...

Labour Day Long Weekend

I had a long holiday on last week....

started my half day study leave on Tues...
full-day study leave on Web
Exam leave on Thurs - 30042009 -

Pub Hols on Fri
and off for weekends...

apparently, I gonna be so so much lazy to come back to work on this blue'ish rainy Monday ~~
I'd have a really tough week/ month...
quarter end closing and exam fallen on the SAME day !!

ppl who knows me well, will say... 'that's your life !!' and expect I will get used with this kinda arrangment on my daily life since I'd experienced thingies like this uncountable times... ( like all the stuffiez come up at the same time.... )

yeah.. I know that... =.="

everyone of us (the gang) kept figuring out something ' cool ' to do over the long weekend...
ended up... erRrrr...
the Mung that kept nagging us to kick out some plans, ended up dumbed us and went Thai alone !!
all of us was like ' wut the? ' when knowing that...

Sing K plan - failed
BBQ nite at YC's - failed
Day trip to Hadyai - failed
Siput Trip - failed
Kite moment - failed

14 of us went for Xmen on Thurs nite, and followed by drink + chit-chat nite at Sunset Bistro..
sounds happening yeah..
unfortunately, some unexpected unhapppee thingies happened on me... *sniff
the cool nite didn't sound cool to me afterall...
luckily, things got better before the nite end... at least.. I got a smile on my face while backed... :)

(p/s: the purpose we went up to Sunset at 12am, was for Shisha ! )

BUT

the shisha stall wasn't opened on that nite !! )

spent a day with stewpig's family on Happee Labour Day...
revisited Georgetown White Coffee,
the foods still nice, and we found somemore nicer...
off to Gurney after that, the traffic was terrible !!
stewpig bought me this stickers from MPH.. Weeeee~ ^^ it's expensive, rm9.90 per piece.. that was why I bo kam buan to buy it eventhough I've seen it for hundreds time.. and confirmed myself is liking it so much...
hmmm....
this stickers are rily cute & funnie...

see the naked pigguie in the middle... the pants and bow tie around it.. are actually for him to 'wear' on...

the cat on the top will become a Lion once sticks on the 'flower thing' below it... ^^

pick up mimi and yc, by the time we reached Moonlight Bay already 8pm...

wonder how on earth could we play the kite on the after-rained weather..
and OR any siput under such a dark sky.... =.=
I was starved and urge them to give up..


off to Tua Peh kong Temple for crabs...
after a long way to there.. the parking uncle told us...
" don't need to park d, everything is sold out, no crab, no prawn... " another =.="
but we enjoyed our dinner still... :)
as I can have the hillside burger which I didn't eat for years !!!!the specialty of the burger.. fried cabbage and onion instead of raw 1...
this will definitely boost up the aroma and taste of the burger~ hmmm.... :)

it was the first time stewpig had it...


it yummie !!

and we found that the western food in the foodcourt is so delicious !!!
the price is so so cheap... imagine a Rib Eye Steak costs only Rm 12 and Rm 9 for lamb chop !!!
oh my !
Chicken Chop, rm 7.00
with fries, basic veggie plus Coleslaw and Garlic Bread sumore !! Mix Grilled, rm 14.00
lamb, beef, chicken and sausage..

oh my... all the meats were well-cooked... the textures are so tender... even the chicken, Steph couldn't believe that it's chic while we let her try...
the sausage.. wondering if it's homemade.. as it's well-flavoured and just really nice !!
The black pepper sauce won't be too hot.. but wonderful....

since we didn't able to have the Shisha on the nite before,
we must have it today... but not at bt, feringghi anymore..
mr Fredy and missie Sarah were so nice...
spent some time to have a short trip around pg Georgetown...

finally, found BBQ guest house serves Shi sha !!!!
it's located right opposite of 7 Eleven at Julia Street... , next to Banana Guest House
they sell cheap beverages and shisha too ~~

they walked walked walked,

to another side of the town...

they saw a 'thing' stuggling under the hot sun, attached to the block... looks suffering...

and she could recognised that it's not a Thing...

but a human...

kImmie was shocked...

not a second word, she walked toward and tried to rescue him ~~

so that... she could ' lat lan ' to find her mr Right...
