The Gingerbread Man

The Gingerbread man is not common in the Malaysian diet. Don't see too many of these in the bakery shops. I am personally not a fan of anything ginger except when used on Ginger Beef Kuey Teow. haha. (I don't eat the ginger by the way, it's just good for the flavour) This Christmas season, a friend requested Jen to bake up a batch for the kids in her music school. Well, this is the product of it. If you would like to see it and what's been coming out of the oven, visit her website at Cookie Couture. Available for orders! 

Great Curry Laksa @ Restaurant Ah Loy

Most of my friends know that I am a connoisseur of curry laksa (the expert in eating kind) So the other day, we went to a Restaurant in OUG which serves a very decent bowl of laksa. I was surprised that I had never heard of the restaurant before, considering I am always hunting out good curry laksa places Anyway, we were there about 11am last Friday and they were just opened for business so everything was fresh and nice. The gravy was the thick kind (which I love!) and I got a generous portion of tau fu pok and chee pei. (which many stalls don't usually give) I ordered a big bowl and it was so good that I ate some more when Jen couldn't finish her portion. Very few stalls past my laksa meter test and I must say that this one does with very good flying colours. This is definitely a stall I would return to. The good thing is that they open until 11pm at night, so if you get a laksa hunger pang at night, you can still enjoy a good bowl there. Here are the details.

KL International Motor Show

This post is long overdue. Not sure why I even bother to put it up after such a long time. Perhaps I just couldn't resist the urge to show off to the world that I took a picture of a camaro. Well, no big deal to some but this was the car which turned into bumble bee man. Didn't bring my DSLR so I just used my trusted Nokia handphone camera. It's probably like 0.00002 megapixel haha which was ok lah I guess. It was our first trip to an international motor show. Didn't realize that it was so hugely popular. At RM18 per head during a weekday, I guess somebody must be laughing all the way to the bank seeing the number of visitors they had. Not sure how much one spends on events like these. I must confess that I was not entirely impressed but it's oklah for the experience. ;)
