On Dad's iPhone

I've taken to taking photos on my dad's iPhone recently because it actually take pretty decent photos. Sure DSLR let's you take better photo but let's face it, it's so unconvenient to carry it around all the time. I actually get backaches when I carry it around for hours during family trips where I'm the designated photographer. So yea, I actually get fed up with all the trouble I have to go through to lug my DSLR all around =(

So now I just settle with something that I can carry around. Or rather, my dad carries around him all the time, his phone. So why not make use of it? =D

Since I came home for the loooooooooooong holidays, I've been out pretty often with my family for brunch/lunches/dinner where I can't help but take photos of yummy pictures =D

The first week I came back, we went to eat at Purple Cane Restaurant at it's original branch at the Chinese Assembly Hall. I've always enjoyed eating there since I was a kid and I haven't been there for a few years now. As always, we ordered this dish:

Erm, sorry I don't know what's its name haha. But doesn't it look good =D

Oh and Purple Cane dishes are famous for using tea in all it's dishes. It's most obvious example is their rice. As you can see below, there are few strands of tea leaves on the rice. It doesn't actually give out a really obvious aroma but I just enjoy the presence of the tea leaf on my rice. If you are still desperate to smell the tea, you have to put your nose really really close to the rice. You can try, but people might think you are a weirdo.

Last weekend we went to have dimsum at USJ Taipan. Wasn't satisfactory.

One of the dimsum we ate. Didn't really like it.

And for dinner tonight, we went to a seafood grill restaurant near Klang and also very near to my primary school.

Food was nice. The price tag? Not so. They totally scammed us. RM44 for 5 tiny lamb chops. I will never eat there again! Never! You can buy 8 lamb chops two times the size of those they sell for only RM18.

The yam mee was great and taste almost similar to Hokkien Mee.

Nyam nyam... There was celery in it but I barely noticed it as it's strong smell is totally covered by the kicap. I'm not really sure whether it's a good thing...

Grilled crabs. In a hmm... Not so appropriate position =S

My brother has smash-crab-shell fetish. Really.

Speaking of my brother,

he unfriended me on Facebook.

And I have to add him again.

... A request which he accepted.

Dumb.

SOULed OUT

I'm gonna talk about FOOD again! My favourite blogging topic muahahaha. I have other passions too but there are all pretty... Scientific? Haha they will bore you to death. So yea, food is the best topic to blog about =) Especially here in Malaysia food connects us all. I've only met a person who doesn't enjoy eating (WHY!?). She is weird (You know who you are haha) First, a HUGE cup of coffee to awaken your senses. My daddy always order a kopi O whenever possible. I think he fancies himself as a Kopi O connoisseur haha =3 But I keep my distance from coffee. Coffee makes me jittery and anxious. Even drinking tea makes my heart go on overdrive grr. Mummy has been wanting to visit SOULed OUT since awhile ago but we just didn't get around to visiting the place, until today. SOULed OUT has two branches but we went to the one in Sri Hartamas. Took us quite some time (and a lot of help from iPhone's Maps application) but we manage to find the place. The location ...

Cool air

Because nothing beats naturally cool weather =) Was up in Cameron Highlands last weekend. And on the way up we realised: My bro has car sickness. That aside, it was a very uneventful trip. My dad thought me something too! Have you ever seen step-like slopes along the roads that are cut out from the mountains? Those are known as... Ba... Err, I forgot. But you know what it is. Apparently according to Malaysian regulations, they must not be more than 6 per slope and each step must not be more than 6 meters high. But that's not the case for most of the slopes. Please, those slopes are SO high you cannot possibly limit the steps to only 6! So, like most Malaysian rules, it can be altered to suit the case. You know, altered. Anyway, engineering is fascinating =) Especially about airports! And my dad loves them too. I suspect I'm very much like my dad. When he loves something he will babble on and on and on about it, usually to a person who will not be listening to him at all. Ki...

2nd-post-of-the-year Update

Hi all! You must have thought that I've gone off the blogging world and you are ALL WRONG! - - - - - Actually well you are right. I am not blogging per se now. I'm hiding in an obscure corner of the Tumblr world now, using it like Instagram (posting random photos of what I find interesting, what I eat, and random stuff). Why not Instagram, you ask? Because Instagram barred me from using it. The story goes like this: Once upon a time, 3 years ago (plus minus) I heard about this app called Instagram so I decided to download it on my dad's iPhone. I registered, signed in, didn't know what all the hype is all about (since none of my friends were using it then) and then proceeded to write an e-mail to Instagram, telling them I would like to deregister my account from Instagram. And they did =D - - - And last year when EVERYONE is switching from posting photos from Facebook to Instagram, I thought, oh let's create another Instagram account! When I did, they ...
