Bavarian Bierhaus @ The Curve

29 June 2009

We were at Cathay Cineleisure to watch a movie and after the show a certain someone had this craving for Pork Knuckle !! Hahaha! That's why we ended up here at the Bavarian Bierhaus !



More stuff from 19th Century @ The Curve

27 June 2009


Had our dinner here on a Saturday night. The restaurant is not totally packed but there were some diners here.

This soup is really good. It feels like you're drinking some oat drink but the texture's really good and the taste is good too !

Tried taking this dish, one with the flash on and the other without. Hmm... which is better ?

Penang - Ipoh - and back to KL !

26 May 2009
Today is the day we head back to KL and so another round of binging before we leave !
This is another quite famous coffee shop in Pulau Tikus. It was raining in the morning and also when we were there so I couldn't take a photo of the shop from the outside !



We tried the curry mee from this stall.Tried Penang Prawn Mee, again.
Also tried the Kueh Chap which I didn't find too good.And for dessert, we had the Raisin Pancake !

In Penang it's quite common to have a little plate/dish of home made stuff placed onto your table for you to 'try'. If you like what you have tasted you can then purchase the goodies from the lady who just placed the samples for you to try. If you don't, it's alright !!!
The coffee shop is next to this Pulau Tikus Plaza.Which is opposite this school.
After breakfast it was back to the hotel, pack and check out.
Bye Bye Penang !!
This is the Penang bridge we are on !!


IPOH
An old 'coffee shop' in Ipoh called Thean Chun. You can say that this is a very nostalgic place to have your meal in Ipoh ! For me it is ! We have been coming here since 'my grandfather's time' !!!

The satay is absolutely yummy, delicious ..... (I'm feeling hungry now!!)
In Ipoh, taugeh & sar hor fun is a must !
The popiah is alright too!
A speciality in this coffee shop is the freshly squeezed orange juice & the caramel custard, another two of my favourites !!

Makan Makan in Ipoh & Kampar

23 June 2009

Another eating trip ! We tried to squeeze in as much food as we could in this one day, but some of the food had to be bought from the morning market !! So, being very smart, we had someone do the buying for us so that we could have it for tea !!

Our first stop is to this restaurant in Ipoh, Pasir Puteh to be exact. There is another 2 restaurants with this same name (but in Chinese) in Pusing and Jalan Horley. The story is that the first restaurant in Pusing and its branch in Jalan Horley used to have 2 or more owners. One of them decided to come out on his/her own and opened this one in Pasir Puteh. So, it is not in any way related to the other 2 outlets. But nevertheless, the menu and the look of the restaurant is nearly the same !!

Oh, by the way, the other 2 are known as Pusing Public Seafood Restaurant.





When you arrive and take your seat and order the food, you will be served a bowl of porridge !
Did we really look that hungry ??!



The food here is really good and I wouldn't mind coming again to eat !!

Next stop, Kampar for some nostalgia !

My mother used to come here often when she was little and as with all the shops in old towns... this one has been around for 3 generations !
These are bought from Kam Ling Restaurant across the road.These are all the stuff that we had 'someone' buy for us from the morning market !

Fathers' Day makan @ Nerofico

21 June 2009


Brunch with my parents today! Not because we're celebrating Fathers' Day but, just because. Most people would think our family is wierd. We don't celebrate stuff like Fathers' Day nor Mothers' Day. We find it very commercialised. To me, it's like ... why must we only treat our parents nice on these two supposedly special days? Why do our parents need to wait just for these 2 days to have something special ? If you'd noticed, all restaurants/eateries will be fully booked and packed with people dining on these days. Sigh ...

Anyway, enough about my own opinions !!

Here's pictures of the stuff we had.

I liked this dish. Tasted really nice with white wine and all. Pizza was good as well. Hmm... looking at it now makes me wanna eat it again !This dish is so-so only (to me that is).Coffee is ggggooooooddddd !!!!
Ordered a tiramisu to share and it came like that !!


Anyway, Happy Fathers' Day lah!!
