My friend ordered the Saba Shio Set, i had the Katsudon. We ordered side dishes of Negima(shio), Mentai Potato & Monaka Green Tea Ice-cream.

KL weekend trip

It was a nice weekend in KL last weekend. I met up with my friends at Sunway Pyramid. We started with a nice shopping first, then around 3pm, i had my tea break & my friend were having her lunch. We decided to give it a try at PappaRich. The menu was quite attractive.

My friend ordered one of the popular meal here which is the Nasi lemak.
The curry was nice though, and the rice is rich with the coconut milk.
We ordered the Toast with Pandan Kaya since this is also recommended dish. The toast was burnt at one corner, this i would say it was not as expected.




Pappa Rich really had lots of Drinks & Dessert choices. We took quite sometime as a lot of them looks yummy...

In the end, i ordered the Pappa Mocha & my friend ordered the Soy Milk Chendol with Redbean.

My friend like the Chendol a lot..or i should say she likes the redbean actually..

Mama's Nyonya@Lorong Abu Siti



This year Mother’s Day, my sister recommend to go to Mama’s Nyonya for dinner. The deco around the walls are those nyonya blouse, photos with popular designer like Jimmy Choo & S’porean star, Phua Chu Kang & others. The ambient was good, however there’s some small mistakes they made. My sister called in to book the day before Mother’s Day & all details were given to the person-in-charge; but it was not taken actually. Anyhow, the lady boss did asked for details while we did booking for her to investigate as they will improve on it. She even apologize & manage to get us a table. Overall, service was good & may need some improvement on taking more attention to customers when they need to be attended.
First, we were given an appetizer. It was Anchovies with Big Onion, ‘chili padi’ & mixed with sweet sour sauce. It was really appetizing. We finished it within seconds..:)

We ordered their famous Ayam Ros which the gravy has santan milk in it. The chicken are tender & gravy are delicious. The taste was just good enough, I would highly recommend you to try.
Next we have the Mango Kerabu Bok Nee. This dish look simple,colorful and taste as good as it is.

We ordered Sambal Sayur Rami, Otak-Otak as well. These 2 dishes were good as well. The sambal sayur rami dish was cooked with belacan and some prawns.

Next is the dish I like most, Chun Piah. It comes together with some special nyonya style sauce for us to dip in.
We really had a satisfying meal. Nice environment for chit chatting as well.
The boss were also friendly. He saw me taking photos & offered to take photos for us..
I would say those who like Nyonya food can give it try here.

Food in Germany

My usual lunch meal at 1 of the nearest Cafe from my workplace...
this is the Pork Chop i had...and almost everymeal will come with potatoes...


This is our dinner at Stephen's Restaurant in Holiday Inn...
This is Salmon steak..with the smashed potato & it has the ghee in it..

Spaghetti with roasted chicken strips..The spaghetti is a bit too salty for me...and i don't prefer chicken breast part...

This flower deco on all tables looks nice, it turns from pink to white by days..not sure what type of flower is this..but one thing, it has a very strong scents, which i don't really prefer...

Just yesterday i had dinner at Nordsee in Centrum shopping mall...

This is Asia style with spring rolls & chicken nugget...
It was delicious though..The rice is similar like nasi beriyani, and the combination with spring rolls & nugget is nice..and with the thai style chili sauce..yum yum..
My friend took this, Kostriker. It's quite smooth though...not bad...

And he took this Grilled Fish with Mushroom Cheezy sauce on it..It was also delicious..

Weekend Time in Dresden, Germany - 2

I started my Sunday morning at the Sachs.Dampfschif. You may also reached this place by tram & stop at Carolaplatz which will be the other end of this spot.


The below pic is taken with the Finance Bureacy building behind.
This is a monument for Ernst Riethschels at Synagoge area.



Then, i walked to Zwinger again now..it's a different view compared to previous 1 month plus ago....




The below pic was taken last mid of Oct 2009...


wow...so cold...freezing..


Saw this plastic coverage, but not sure why is covered only these particular area..hmmm

Nice sculpture..


Overall view..



Then, i go around Zwinger, there's a lake, suppose it's a lake, now become a skating area..
see this... I also went down to skate with my sport shoe...yipee..!!

In Oct 2009, it was like this...




So so nice..:)

My weekend in Dresden,Germany

My weekend starts with a heavy breakfast...

This is what i have daily for breakfast. It's only during weekend i get to enjoy the breakfast, more time spent....

Before headed to window shop, i had a short rest & relax at hotel lobby...



Then, there i go, to town area to all the shopping malls. Went to Centrum, Karstad & Altmarkt...3 of this shopping mall are just walking distance...And huge crowd as we get warmer in shopping malls & most importantly for ladies, it's big sales now for winter clothing..till 70% discount...for myself, i bought a nice vest from Zara..

Centrum Shopping mall considering quite new, when i was there, there were live band with profesional musicians walking from floors to floors...A huge crowd were looking & enjoying it...
See the big crowd...


Some old model car,


Creative mugs


Cutie kangaroo dolls...


According to my friend here, he said the banana imported here have certain requirement where the length has certain standard to follow..all are huge..
It's different from Msia that you'll find different sizes of banana...
It's juz something to share with you all...I questioned this as normally during bfast at hotel, they do provide fruits & normally i'll see huge size banana...

I bought a Movenpick Latte Machiato drink, it was quite nice..

After a long window shop around the shopping malls, I went to try a Vietnamese style dish for dinner..
It was quite nice..nice food with reasonable price..There i go, i tried the Crispy Duck dish..

My friend tried this Pork dish..quite good too...

This cafe is near Altmarkt Galerie..it's on the way towards tram station-Postplatz..

2nd trip to Germany

Again, it was a tiring day for me after a long flight from Penang to Spore to Frankfurt & finally Dresden. Almost 21 hours altogether.
This time, my feeling was really cold, freezing...We arrived at 11.30am & straight to hotel to check-in. However, there’s no room at that moment. There'll be available room after another 2 hours. Thus, we have to walk to the nearest coffeeshop, my usual asian food, called ‘Flinke Pfanne’ to have lunch.Haha..i ordered my favourite Crispy Duck, or we called it Peking Duck....yum yum...


Then, i dropped by to the supermarket nearby, it was under renovation & things get less there. Anyway, i just want to get a mineral water bottle.
Before headed back to hotel, i had a walk near a park at Stauffenbergallee. Weather was around 1deg C, still OK for me.


Then, a 5 mins walk to Holiday Inn. Immediately, i got my room & had a nice warm bath. Rest & relax time...it was still not enough for me to get a good rest...It was too cold for me to go out for dinner on the 1st night. I was too tired & sleepy & having flu..hmmm...1st day was terrible...
I felt better after a few days. However, i was too lazy to go out as weather was cold, it was -7deg C. So, the nearest restaurant was Stephen Restaurant at Holiday Inn itself. I had a great dinner, i had Fish this time, i ordered Fried Salmon, but there weren’t salmon anymore..It was Mackerel i guess. The waitress did told me, but due to language issue, i did not get what she said. The important thing is it was a nice meal after all.

I ordered a Banana Juice(called Bananensaft); and i like it though...


You can enjoy the liquor there as well...
