Restoran Super Kitchen, Kuala Lumpur.

Went to look for Sze Mei and her colleague, Sabrina for lunch in KL. Since Mei wanted to buy us lunch to celebrate her hard-fought confirmation in PWC, we decided to eat in Maju Junction but it was freaking jam.

Stephen: Wei..very jam lar...how lar? I don't want to be late for my interview lar. It's at 3pm and now already 1:45pm. I wanna go there earlier lar.

Sze Mei: Told you to eat at the coffeshop outside PWC lor..you pulak wanna come here!

Stephen: Isn't that the corner that lead us to where we had the chilli pan mee last time?

Sze Mei: Yes..dont you turn inside there..Today is freaking hot and I dont want to eat there.

Stephen: I don't care.

Sze Mei: ......... #$#@# ^%$!!!!

Actually along the road, there are 2 restaurants selling the same food which is chilli pan mee. The one I went to last time, was hot and without air-cond so we decided to try out the one with air-cond.



Everytable has at least a glass of herbal tea (RM1.00). Follow only lar....but tasted normal only. My mom's herbal tea is much nicer.



Must eat your pan mee with these!!! Spice up your lunch... hehehe



For your info, this shop only sells Pan Mee, either with soup or the dry Pan Mee (RM4.00). Don't try to be funny and ask for Wan Tan Mee.



Looks quite small bowl but it's quite filling. No matter if you order dry or with soup, it comes with an egg and as for the dry Pan Mee, it comes with a small bowl of soup with pork meat balls.

The last time I went to the restaurant opposite, Mei lied to me.

Sze Mei : Don't so mafan lar...Just take the dry Pan Mee. They only sell dry one. No soup!!

Stephen : What the?!?! Sigh..sad lar..wanna try the soup also cannot.

But today, Sabrina told me that both restaurants do sell soup and dry Pan Mee. I felt so stupid for believing Sze Mei. Big Liar!! Anyway, of course i chose the one with soup (RM4.00).

Overall, taste very delicious also. Worth giving it a try. Definitely will come this place again because everytime I look at the pictures, I will feel hungry within seconds.

Island Cafe, SS2

Monday afternoon, my makan kaki, Grace Ch'ng decided to have dinner together and insisted that she wanted to eat steamboat. Only towards evening, smart Sze Mei told us that Hau Xiang Lai Steamboat Restaurant is closed on every Monday because of SS2's Pasar Malam. Quickly we had to change plan so I suggested Island Cafe because of it's variety in food and drinks etc. Sze Mei and myself have been to ISLAND CAFE a few times but Grace Ch'ng, not even once.

Due to my previous visit to Island Cafe and successfully surpassed the RM 50 mark in the bill, I'm entitled to one small basket of fries on my next visit. So today, I exercised my option.

Just normal french fries.



Here comes the interesting part, Island Cafe have almost 80++ kinds of drinks. Sze Mei's favourite is none other than LEMON RIBENA. According to her, this is the perfect drink if you feel very thirsty. I tried Lemon Ribena before and ended up ordering another glass of Honey Ribena as my second drink. The one below is LEMON RIBENA (RM 4.50).



As for my drink, i went ahead with CHOCOLATE CHIPS MILKSHAKE (RM 6.00) because of Rachel Low's recommendation. Both the girls tried and gave me the yummy look. I don't need to say anything else, of course the drink tastes good and kinda milky. No wonder, Rachel's lovin it. For me, I felt its almost like McD's McFlurry. Anyway, you should try.



As for Grace, she chose boring Orange Juice (RM 4.50) because she just recovered from some sickness so she decided to have a healthy beverage. She said the drink was OK~lah and very fresh because still tastes sour. Look at her "desperate" hand.



Grace had CHAMPAGNE SAUCE RICE (chicken, fish or seafood) and she chose Chicken which tasted like lemon chicken and light sourish. She also commented that the more you eat, the more you feel like eating. Hahaha.. anyway, you can choose either chicken (RM7.90), fish (RM 8.90) or seafood (RM 9.90). Chef recommendation anyway.



Mine was labelled "MUST TRY" so I obeyed the menu. It's BUTTER SAUCE RICE (chicken, fish or seafood). Among the comments that I got from them was it tasted exactly like butter prawn, more milky and the gravy is thick. Pricing is the same as the above. Not bad..next time, you must obey the menu too.

Sze Mei's choice was kinda special because the fried rice is served in a bamboo. She chose BAMBOO CHICKEN CHOP RICE (RM 11.90). Her comment was rather predictable. Normal, so-so only and nothing special except the BAMBOO. Hahaha...

Total bill is RM 42.70 and of course additional 10% service charge and 5% Govt tax which comes up to RM 49.11. And if you still remember, if you dine in and your bill exceeds RM 50, you get a stamp on your receipt and you will get a free basket of fries.

Our bill was RM0.89 short!!!! I tried my very best to convince the waitress to give me the stamp but all she could do was LAUGH FOR NO FREAKING REASON for 20 seconds. I told her to add ice for me into my drink and charge me additional RM 1 and she LAUGHED non stop again. Sigh, pay the bill only-lar. Next trip, no free fries just because of RM 0.89 short.

Overall, Island Cafe is a nice place to hang out on any day as they also provide customers card games, chess and magazines. Monday night they have promotion for beers. RM 30 for 6 bottles of small Carlsberg. Definitely a nice place to catch up with your friends.

Hau Xiang Lai Steamboat, SS2

On Saturday evening, I had dinner with my "superstar" Grace Tan and Kok Fai at Hau Xiang Lai Steamboat (HXLS) at SS2. The restaurant is located behind Angel's Cake House and it's facing residential area.

First of all, this steamboat is kinda special because of their soup. Normally, you will only find steamboat restaurants serving only Tom Yam Soup and Chicken Soup (Ching Thong). One thing that separates HXLS with the other steamboat restaurants is that they serve BAK KUT TEH (BKT) soup. Sounds yummy for BKT lovers. Reason being is because the next shop beside which is connected, sells Teo Chew Bah Kut Teh.

Grace Tan and Kok Fai have not tried BKT steamboat before so we decided to have Tom Yam and BKT as the soup for our steamboat dinner. Bottom one is Tom Yam soup while the top one is BKT.

So we ordered a 3 person pax steamboat (RM13.00 per pax) and here is our big plate of raw fishballs, meatballs, vege etc.. Besides that, they also give Yee Mee, Mee Hoon, Wan Tan Noodle and of course, 3 eggs for 3 pax. You have the options to combine whichever noodle you want.

Probably you'll wonder what is the Yau Cha Kuai doing there. HXLS also offers plates of various food for you to add into your steamboat. We took Yau Chai Kwai (RM1.20), bacon (RM2.00) and wan tan (RM2.00). They have sausages, different kind of vegetables, prawns, crabs and etc etc for you to add into your steamboat.

My small bowl of Tom Yam and please eat with their chilli paste. It's super chun!!

Have you tried Bak Kut Teh with noodle, egg , bacon etc etc??

Tah-da~~

One more chunt-ed stuff..my friend, Sze Mun taught me this. Remove the noodles from the bowl using your chopsticks and hang them in the air for few seconds to let the soup drip back into the bowl and then place your noodles onto your plate. Then add the "golden brown garlic oil" (Top right of the picture) onto the noodles. Stir well and eat!!! Yes, it sounds oily but come on, these are the ingredients that make your food delicious!!

On top of that, after you pay the bill, they will serve you ice cream. Well, small scoop only-lar. Here comes the bill, RM 50.61. Each person please pay Kok Fai RM 16.87. I forgot to take picture of the ice cream because got uncle and auntie standing behind us waiting for our table.

Definitely one of my favourite hang out place for dinner. Next time I will try the BKT and then blog about it.

Saved by a Girl

After I finished work at 745pm, I rushed to Giant Kelana Jaya to get my car so that I reach home and take a good rest...yes..on a FRIDAY NIGHT!! Generally, everytime a person starts his/her car, I think the worst thing that could probably happen is either the engine don't start or battery running low....or maybe the car explode?? Hahaha....

Well.. that's what happen. The engine couldnt start at all. Probably it's because my noob fren's (Wong Tai Loong) curse that caused me such unlucky incident. He was just being jealous that I can park my car for free whereas he needs to pay RM7 everyday at work.

Anyway, I decided to call my friend to save me instead of waiting for my dad to come. Hmm..who stays nearby Giant Kelana Jaya? My saviour for the day is Gan Hui Leng, the female knight in shinning armour (Proton Iswara).

She stole her brother's cable from his car and came to my rescue. How sweet of her....although she took quite some time. Anyway, I really appreciate it!!

The pictures below are her heroic acts..

Well..for my car's battery..

MSN Display Pictures

MSN messenger. I am very sure everyone who knows how to use the internet, also knows what is MSN and it's functions. If you dont know, give yourself a smack on the head and ask your neighbour's children.

I am not going to teach you all how to use but how to express yourself if you are using MSN at work , lecture in college or even at home...yes.. at home! As an example, for those who are working and your boss orders you to do some stuff, you can ask him to look at your MSN picture. Same goes for those who get orders or requests from teacher, lecturer or even your mom (if your mom communicate with you through MSN even when both of you are under the same roof), just respond by asking them to see your MSN picture. Dont say anything else. If they are smart, they will get the answer. Then pray that your boss change his mind and won't give you work.

Just feel free to left click and save this picture and use it as your MSN DISPLAY PICTURE!



OH Nooooooooo!!!!

PROTON BOLEH!!

15th of June 2007, that morning was drizzling as I was preparing for work, I felt that I needed something extraordinary to keep me going for the day. After all, who doest want to continue sleeping on a rainy day especially if it rains in the morning??

As I was turning out towards the main road outside USJ 6, the road was surprisingly empty. For a moment, I thought it was holiday or something. As I drove further front, guess what I saw...


One of the Proton babies, the PROTON TIARA is about to explode, I thought at that time. What happen to the car was thick white smoke coming out from the front and flame was coming from underneath the car which was probably caused by oil leakage. I was so excited as this was my first time seeing such incident. Luckily the car didn't explode and the poor owner was soaking in the rain talking on his handphone. The traffic policeman doesn't seem to care as well. I think God heard my thoughts...

Conclusion : Proton BOLEH!!!

Jacket and Topside

For those who doesnt know me, I'm currently working in OILCORP BHD, a well-diversified group of companies involved in three (3) core business activities, i.e. oil & gas, special projects, hotel, resort operation and property investment, and deep-sea fishing.

I was actually on my study leave when my boss asked my colleagues to call me along to visit the Pulau Indah yard where they build these structures. Before my study leave, I was working on the accounts and preparing job costing reports for these structures. Personally, I have not seen an oil rig or huge gigantic structures related to the oil and gas industry. Finally, I had my chance today.

First, the jacket. The jacket is the structure which they drill into the seabed, in other terms, the kaki-lah to support the Topside.

This is the base of the jacket which will be drilled into the seabed.

The jacket is being loaded onto a "weird looking" ship to be shipped out to the sea. Picture taken from the Topside.

Now, the Topside which is the structure on top of the jacket. This is the place where office, engines, helideck and toilets are situated. Hehehe...

Too bad, I don't have the chance to follow the crews to the sea and watch how they drill the Jacket into the sea and place the Topside on top of the Jacket. I guess I can only watch from Discovery Channel and National Geographic Channel on ASTRO.

Another specialised project completed by Oilfab Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of OILCORP BHD.

Bravo..
