Lumut, where's Gateway cross over to Pulau Pangkor

The journey to Pangkor was fun.. Stop by Ipoh to have lunch

Surrounding Lumit where we able to catch some interesting snap shoot thanks to Augustine :-)

Yeah, the welcome to Pangkor Island sign board. Strange but true, we’re still at Lumut jetty and they’re already expecting us to go there with this mini map hung right in the middle of the waiting area ~~

Lumut which is the gateway to Pangkor Island by ferry services such as Duta Pangkor, Mesra Feri and Pan Silver. The cost is RM10 to and fro. The best service is done by Mesra Ferry. With it's upper deck from where you can shoot your photos and it's low noise motors (the Mesra ferry has two instead of the other companies who have only one motor) the Mesra ferry is a good choice for us. Ofcourse you may bring your car over, but we dont. Just park in Lumut carpark area for 2 days :-)

This are the Duta Pangkor Feri.. see how crowed it was!

Queensbay+Kingsbay

Heard about Queensbay? if no watchout..It will be the biggest shopping mall in Penang Island by end of the yr..But do you heard about Kingsbay? It was just next to Queensbay Head Office.

Kingsbay 京灣 is a newly opened Chinese restaurant at Bayan Bay shop lot, area where is now called Queensbay. They served home cooked Chinese food, quite good. That area start to booming for food and hawker industry from the boost of Quessbay Mall. The biggest department store inside of this mall will be Jusco.

BJ Tutti Frutti

Rated: ****

Last Friday went to Tutti Frutti Cafe for lunch. At 1st wanna take Japanese food next door but just becoz we saw the privilege of using MBF credit card. :-)

Wait soooo long for our set lunch to arrive. Call the waitress twice to come over (becoz our mushroom soup ot yet arrive) compare to other table that already got their soup. She respond to us..coming coming..In her mind i think she taught we are chasing for the set to serve quickly -_-" At least have been waited 1hr for the food to arrive.

The honeydrew sherbet was quite nice..

Let me introduce the food we took..

i was ordering a drunken chicken rice in the beginning, but end up they come with the noddle.
They notice of their mistake but i dun request for chance anymore..donno need to wait how long again..For the lady, she order a Cafe De Tutti Spaghetti. It was very delicious with the cheese top up on top. You may request to have double cheese. But..of course u need to pay extra la..nothing is free in this world rit?It was out from the oven baked..Cheesy and creammy..Yummy ^^

Which 1 u prefer?Both also nice to be honest

At the end when I gotta make the payment with MBF Card..I realise the bil is without any discount..WTF@##$%$%&* Ask the cashier what that means on the big banner means by MBF Card member entire for 15% discount for dinning in Tutti Frutti? That fellow said only for A La Carte Menu..Dam...In my mind i tell myself i will turn up 2nd round with ONLY order A La Carte.

WW40 Ending with ROB-B-HOOD

Movie of the year!!Full of laughter and action from the cute baby.

Rated: *****

The longest and hardest queue to get this watched in cinema for Rob-B-Hood (寶貝計劃).
The smartest and cutiest BB Matthew Medvedev. At 1st i taught is a chinese BB..
And the 1st time Jacky Chan act as a bad character in the movie.
Guest how difficult to get this ticket? At 1st we plan to watch it Weds night. Have ring up my bro to get 2 ticket for me especially couple seat if available..By the time he reach there is only 2pm with 9.30pm ticket to buy..Unfortunately, only left the 1st row..:-( No choice lo..Next night we went there 30min earlier just hope to get the reserve ticket haven't collected but in the end after long queue from 4 rows. SOLD OUT..Damn...No choice, have to purchase the ticket now to watch it Sat..Will not miss the chance this round to watch with twin seat.

"Rob-B-Hood" is about three professional thieves who take on their toughest assignment to date - to kidnap a HK$30 million baby for a group of gangsters who claim that the baby belongs to them. However, one thing leads to another and the trio find themselves facing a moral dilemma. The little hostage has managed to warm his kidnappers' hearts, forcing them to choose between the ransom and their conscience.

Best quote from the movie: 'I’m from brokeback mountain'- Daniel Wu(hahaha) Special Guest Apperance for Nicholas Tse and Daniel Wu.. I wonder a so good seller movie why other cinema like Cathay Cineplex din bring in.. This is also the reason why most ppl prefer GSC with so many varieties of movies and no need to worry end out can’t choose any from the movie list.

Happy Birthday Meyer:-)

A wonderful day for Meyer. 3rd Oct..Her big big day…

1st thing to surprise her in the morning was I had order a bouquet of roses from Ideal Florist in I-Avenue. Prepare this since Sun to prevent some disappointment for roses not available. Hey guys, fake roses are more expensive that the real one. Somemore it will be after 3 or 4 days. Darling, i know you love blue roses J Blue roses with colour spray will stand for 3 days only le..

After few days I receive a fwd mail from my colleague about a mail circulated around the company about a luckly girl who received 1001 roses from a secret admirer!

This is definitely worth a post here. 1-0-0-1 roses..But is this really true love? Or just to win the girl's heart? (Hehehe..Sorry le Meyer..What you get cannot be compare as below, dun angry ya :-P) But 1 thing can prove to you that your roses will be everlasting..Wonder what happen to the roses below after 10 days?


Wow…

Night time will be a surprise for her as she still cant figure out where I bring her for dinner :-P Let talk about the place Audees now..

We were welcome by 2 waiter to our seat since I have made reservation earlier. 1st we feel not so comfortable as we are sitting neat to the counter but sooner will be use to it as the view near us still satisfy with Spanish base bear, TORRES deco in the centre. The set dinner came with a nice appetizer, soup and garlic bread. As for the main course, I have a steak while the lady had a chicken. Her one is nicer, with chicken meat rollup in pieces. Our dessert is ice-cream with fruits and since Mid-Autumn festival is around the corner, we have jelly mooncake on the house. The coffee is a bit bitter but that's the least of my complain. Add at least 3 tea spoon :-S

By the time we have finished our dinner, we got offer from the supervisor in Audees to take some snap shots for us. See… His technique of snapping was good as Sony camera need to hold it firmly for night shot.

We were bring to the upstairs which is a bar. It was nobody there now as the happy hour will start on Fri as many people will be hanging there to relax from their daily hectic working days.

Old Town Coffee@Tesco E-Gate

1st Old Town Hainannese Coffee in Penang

Rated: ***

Modern design of Malaysian style Kopitiam with marble table, laminating "coffee history" on the wall.
Just loacated next to Starbucks E-Gate. The food, all from local delight, from all the local coffee blend to toasted bread with kaya and butter to Nasi Kunyit and curry mee. The food is relatively simple and not overpriced. As this is a premium type of coffee shop, the food is not cheap either.

A set of Omega soft boiled eggs and a double Old Town kaya and butter toast would set you back RM3.60. The nasi lemak special is priced at RM5.80.
Drinks are cheap compare other restaurant along the row.

The drawback is quite noisy inside as expected "local kopitiam" style. Go along with a group of friends chit-chatting should be good idea for a cup of white coffee value. most probably during weekend and lunch time for Fri, the place is most crowded for it strategic location as people coming out from Bayan Lepas FIZ. I wonder can this be extended as Queensbay will be opening soon end of this year. Penang biggest and longest shopping mall.

Team Bulding 9 Sep 06'

This was my company team building for the whole department of NC07 PE in Gurney Plaza.

Last year it was held in Parkroyal Hotel with various games and activities.
Not bad to have 1/2 off for the day on Friday 9 Sep :-) Although i reach there ~3pm. But the Cosmo staffs still let us continue with the amusement park game till 3.30pm before we take family photo to end up that we have been here.

The attendance rate is quite good. Most of us turn up for this round. Actually the Amusement Park opens for us from 12-3pm. We all have been given RM10 McDonald coupon for lunch. After that, one movie ticket for you to select which ever movie you love. Ofcourse i buy another to watch with Meyer for tonite 9.30pm. She has decided to watch something horrible when i ring her up for opinion. At last i decide to buy the Pulse movie ticket.

1st time i have been in the complex for less than 1 hr.Normally more than 2. Before I drive out of the carpark, I able to snapshot the whole surrounding of Gurney Plaza from my SE W810.

With te Penang 2nd link bridge and Monorail to be implement by government, the area of properties will be very demand. Wonder how many times from the current price 5 years later.

KL Vacation Day 3

This is the last day of the trip..9.30am wake up..7 hrs ++ more before we said Bon Voyage to KL

1st thing in the morning is faster go Times Square for photo album exchange as it was a bit out of shape after purchase from Pork Chop&Friends

Thanks for the shop owner for allowing the exchange of a new1. I think she should thank us. Coz Meyer continue her purchasing there..

We need to check out by 1pm from the hotel. Without thinking any much more, we step in to this interesting Restaurant which located in 3rd floor of BTS. Near to Cosmo's World Theme Park Atrium. This was the 3rd Restaurant i have visited so far in KL with whole orange color decor for the entire shop. Em..Orange rules!! I love orange color. Being wearing the orange color sports shoes all the time for this trip :-P

Step by step yum yum:-)

Cheese baked rice, salad roll, french toast, mango&kiwi pudding, "mother nature" ais blended..Are you able to finish it all? -_-""

Only notice MBF Cards members have 15% discount for dinning here..Really not bad..1st time use MBF cards with discount..Ppl living in KL should enjoy a lots of privilege with MBF cards. Hopefully MBF can give more discount/privilege for ppl in Penang. At least 15% can cover the service charge and gov tax waiver.

Straight away go back to Fortuna once finished our lunch. A bit rush but still okay. Late for 15min but still in time for check out. The managment allow us to keep our luggage in the hotel before we heading for our last place visit for this trip.

One place you will never miss before going back is Petaling Street. Also known as ChinaTown in centre of Malaysia. What is most available here is all the pirated products such as CDs, Clothes, Bags, Watches, Wallets. The traders are better compare to the pass but only the indian that selling jersey. He was sucks. Inviting me to have a look for his jersey, end out rudely when i didn't make any purchasing.

Look..Petaling Street just opposite nia..How u wanna go thru?Follow rules by overhead bridge or just ran across?

What we bought there were some clothes, (love the army shorts :-P), watches, and dried meat from KL branded "Kiew Brothers". The bak kua or barbeque pork and chicken meats are associated with Chinese New Year. Not bad the spicy one. We bought different favour. Taste good. Not too salty, oily and sweet. Just nice :-)

Guest which watches are bought from there?

Wonder how much we pay for taxi from Fortuna to Puduraya?RM2.20 only..Is a Malay driver somemore..Ppl out there, dont be cheated by not run by meter. It should be mush more cheaper compare to the price cabbies offer. Reach there 45min earlier, have to wait before we depart to go down staircase for our bus platform.

Meyer's silly face while waiting before going down to the Konsortium Platform. Guess why she only hold this? These were her valuable stuff bring home :-)
