Bento: Better late than never!

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:33:00 +0000

A back-dated bento from September (2 months ago!). I just dug the pics out of Buu's phone. ^^

From left: Inarizushi plain (cheese ♥ cutouts) and with egg mayo (ham ♥ cutouts), blanched sweet peas, stir fried aubergine with green pepper, coke simmered chicken and egg salad.

A mucky Usa-chan waiting to dig in. Egg mayo with "WEB" spelt out in ham. ugly but love counts right? :P

Do the kudamono like inari too? XD

I love bento days. Tiring but so worth the smile I get.

P/S: I love you

The great lengths that you'd go to make things more bearable...
I wish time flies real fast.

I love you

P/S: more than you and ∞ combined. ♥

Sunshiney Sunday!

I got these beauties from carrying books yesterday.

I also donchknow how I did that. Tensai.

Departure Lounge @ Solaris Mont Kiara

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:32:00 +0000

One Merry Monday (far away from the manic ones), JackJack decided to kick away the shackles of his dog-eat-dog world and satiate the ever-growing thirst of wanderlust. Daunting as it may seem, he was absolutely determined to follow his heart to whichever new land it may lead him.

Much honks and middle fingers later, his invisible button nose took charge when the heart faltered at the sight of the krazee traffic (and deranged drivers) in the land of Kay El.

After a few twists and turns down the winding lanes with nose's deft manoeuvres, heart felt peace.

"Lub dub. Is that departure lounge I see? We've reached the terminal, by golly."

Picture from here

"Atishoo0!" The nose gave a teeny weeny sneeze, fumbling in its excitement.

Heart gave a little jump and prodded nose:

"Systols to the diastols, we should be on the right track!"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"Reckon the planes swooping down soon?" Heart palpitated as they swung into the nearest seats by the windows.

"I see steaming mugs of coffee but ain't no planes on the runway yet."

"Patience, heart. Why don't you get something to eat so Oscar stays in his trash can?"

"Yeah... you should get something warm to drive those sniffles away too. They're disgusting."

"Nobody tells me what to do , twerp. I'm gonna Do-It-My-Way!"

"Oh yeah, ballsy? I gonna Do-It-My-Way too! And my Do-It-My-Way is gonna be better than yours!"

"Bring it on! I've got my hash brown, toadstools, baked beans, bread, grilled tomato, scrambled eggs, turkey ham and turkey bacon for only RM 12.90." Nose sneered snottily.

"Beat my whopping chicken sausages, shrooms, baked beans, bread, scrambled eggs, soft boiled eggs, turkey ham and turkey bacon!! Bet you can't trump that!" Heart pumped furiously.

Ignoring the stares and hushed whispers of passers-by, the two continued to be engaged in their fight, completed with snarls and dripping venom. Adventure? That thought was totally awashed.

An eternity of food-slinging and gobbling laters, JackJack was stuffed to the brim, much thanks (or maybe not) to his squabbling nose and heart.

He drifted into deep slumber on that comfy armchair by the window sill, dreaming dreams of swooping planes and exotic coffee beans...

Stumbled upon this poem on Chee Mun's FB. And it's on his blog too.

Food for thought indeed for the self-conscious freak in me.

Farewell, dancer...

I remember her voice.
Her lithe steps.
Her grace.
Her laughter.

She will always be remembered as the incredible dancer in my memory. ♥

Rest in peace.

**Update: Was reading her name aloud in my mind when it hit me that we share the same initials...K.Y.T. Haunting. Just can't get her out of my mind the entire day. Digging at all forms of leads. Insides are gnawing to know how every thing happened. Even though we were no more than mere acquaintances... who once shared a dance.

Restoran Peng Heong Hakka Paikut @ Klang

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 07:02:00 +0000

Anybody wants pork ribs? ME! *waves frantically*

A day before my Friday roadshows, Long Legs was sharing with me a place that was touted to serve raving porb ribs (排骨) in Klang. It was supposively located near my roadshow outlet.

Me, being super cacated and directionally-crippled in Klang, had thought there were no hopes in locating it. Thus, I really must thank my Klang-based colleague, Sharon for bringing me there!

Restoran Peng Heong Hakka Pai Kut has an extensive menu. Its pork ribs is certainly the definitive dish there as its ubiquitous presence was on each table. We saw many patrons ordering other dishes such as mutton curry, spicy and sour mustard and vinegar pork trotters as well. Food was served very fast, and the servers were friendly and helpful. The premise was also very clean and comfortable to be in.

While waiting for the dishes to be served, choose your chilli dips.

The redder one on the left was sweet and has a faint piquant taste of something that I'm not sure of, like plum? It could be an acquired taste for some because one of my colleagues didn't touch hers after a taste. The one on the right was the garlic and ginger chilli normally served with chicken rice.

Now for the star of the visit!

The Hakka Pai Kut

RM 8 worth of carnage here. The meat was well marinated (I could taste ginger or galangal). Deep fried and drenched (or simmered) in a thin sweetish sauce, each morsel was a delight to indulge in. Upon my first bite, I was thinking: This is so soft and tender, it doesn't feel like pork ribs at all (...you know, those annoying ones that gets its meat fibers stuck in your teeth). Now we know why the shop was packed to the brim... worthwhile coming for.

Assam fish is priced by size. You can order it from RM 5 up till RM 8. This fell short of expectation, for me at least. I love my assam fish on the fiery and sourish side. The sauce was too sweet and wasn't spicy enough. My colleagues like it coz it wasn't spicy. I must say, the fish was fresh though. Can taste the subtle sweetness (umami).

These balls were priced at RM 1 a pop. So RM 3 worth of balls here. Not a shout-out-loud dish. Somehow or rather, it has a taste remniscent of "wu kok" (芋角). Goes well with the special chilli.

We also ordered stir fried lettuce for roughage. Lightly stir fried and still retaining its crispness, the vege was only RM 3. They actually had a RM 2 portion too! Dirt cheap.

Another must mention is their rice. Oiled rice (油飯) is served here. It was really fragrant, cooked with stock. They have thick and dark soya sauce on the table for you to drizzle your oiled rice with as well.

Total damage = RM 24 (inclusive of 4 rice and a drink).
Rice was RM 0.50 per bowl.

This is a place that I won't mind returning for again as its food is really affordable and delightful. Now, I can't wait to try the other dishes. Happie Sunday, y'all!

On a weekend that was furthest away from sleep and quiet, Buu and I hopped over to MidValley to catch a glimpse of the Devil who was waging a war against the Orks with his miniatures. It's interesting how the minis come to life by a rolling of some dices.

Even to bystanders like us, who knew nuts about it in the first place, the game was engrossing. We stayed for a bit till it was time for us to gravitate back to reality again as duty calls out crisp and clear on a Saturday morn. bah.

Despite that, I needed my getaway from those mundane madness. With fleeting steps, we whirled our way to an elegant shop nestled in the Gardens for a dose of ediporn.

Fish Head Noodles @ Woo Pin, Tmn Desa

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 06:05:00 +0000

Growing up, my idea of fish head noodles has always been the clear soup kind with lots of salted vege and tomatoes.

I was only introduced to the milky kind when I started studying in KL. It took me some time to get accustomed to this richer tasting version of fish head noodles, with fried fish and evaporated milk enriched broth.

Woo Pin at Taman Desa offers a nice version of this. I didn't stumble upon this shop, of course. I've done some research earlier and there were some good reviews on it.

It was the most leisurely Saturday I've had by myself in months and I'd been dying to visit the 100 yen shop some tens of steps away from Woo Pin. Thus, it seemed to be an excellent idea to pop over for lunch after the spree.

Order was fast and much to my delight, the piping bowl of hot noodles was dished out within 10 mins of ordering. I was also given to choose my own chillies to go with the noodles, which were either chopped chillies or belacan chilli. The latter was pungent enough and proved to be a great accompaniment to the noodles.

Woo Pin's fame is well-earned as its fish head noodle's broth was wholesomely sweet. I like the fact that there were plenty of chopped tomatoes and salted vege which lent the soup its tanginess. The fried shallots, spring onions and coriander also made nice condiments to the soup. Just for declaration sake, I love coriander!

The fried fish was very fresh as well and I was given 3 or 4 humongous pieces to devour on. I noticed that its vermicelli didn't go limpid or soggy after some time and that was definitely a plus point.

mmm... I'm hungry again just by typing this post. That said, I'll be going back again for more helpings hopefully soon. and with Buu or cuzz in tow. hehe.

Nice food should always be shared, innit?

Quack lunch

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Sun, 23 Aug 2009 17:18:00 +0000

Lunch date was a quack. So I came home and fixed myself a simple lunch instead. Turned out it wasn't a bad idea after all. Got to put one of my new gifts to use - the duck mold.

It looks healthy, doesn't it? Egg on pumpkin seed bread, carrot sticks, salad with raisins and cashews.

Missing from the pikcher, however, was a few strips of roasted honey bacon from Loong Kee, SS2! Hehe, cuzz bought a pack for himself today and got another surprise pack from his admirer later in the noon. Such coincidence! He generously shared it with me. Yumz! Artery clogging goodness is so hard to turn down. It was obscenely decadent and owh.. the sticky crisp parts were my fave.

Happy monday, y'all!

Domo-kun Hash Browns - Phailed

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 12:13:00 +0000

While waiting for his snoring majesty (the cuzz) to stir from his sleep this morning, I ran through my usual blog roll routine. Anna the Red caught my immediate focus with this attention-grabbing headline:

"How to Make Domo-kun Croquettes"

Hic. I almost hyperventilated on the spot.

Domo-kun's like, [INSERTS rabid fan rave]. Yah, i worship him.

In case anyone wanna know more about Domo-kun (どーもくん) , point your cute mousie and clickety-click.

Sooo, I decided to replicate them as a surprise for Mr Buu whom I'll be 'forsaking' for the coming 3 days due to another work trip outstation. Except plans hardly turn out the way I want 'em.

You see, I went out with the cuzz for brekkie this morning. And reached home only at 5 pm.

Then hor... Mr Buu knocked off at 6 pm. Geddit geddit? I only have 1 freaking hour to work with on top of delivery!

Siow liow.... o_O"

There there, a thrown-off-the-track me ditched all the initial plans and dove from croquettes to ---->

hash browns

[I know, store bought hash brown sibeh not sincere (-_-"). I... I.... promise to make Buu-san the original croquettes soon]

Terengganu- 1 Day Stopover

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 11:34:00 +0000

An anachronistic turn of events had me sitting on my first plane ride heading for the east coast. Virginal experience comes in pairs, as it was also the first time I set my less travelled feet atop the Land of Turtles and one day later, the Land of Full Moon.

Here are a few morning shots which I took from my room in Terengganu:

What better way to start the day by admiring this beautiful stretch of beach... nature's grandeur that stokes the primal sense of wanderlust. Ahh.. wouldn't I love to throw away my mundane obligations and soak in this carefree spirit of endless roaming? Oh, I would.. I would. Even if it's just for a day.

Strapped with duties, my first and only day here was regretfully spent with roadshows. Left with scarcely any time to explore the Land of Turtles, I can only hope to return some day soon. Next time round, I'll definitely put Pasar Payang on top of my must-go list aside from the keropok lekors and other local foods I missed. Rest assure, I will...

Watch out for my Kelantan series in the coming few posts. Meanwhile, have a great weekend at that!

Pasta Carbonara with Leeks & Mushroom

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 09:32:00 +0000

After a long bento hiatus, Buu finally requested a bento for Monday. ;p

We shopped for some ingredients on Sunday and decided to experiment making pasta carbonara with 蟹味菇.

Brown Clamshell Mushroom, also known as Hon- or Buna-Shimeji, is termed as 蟹味菇 in Mandarin because of its distinctive mild shellfish flavor. To think I was cracking my head trying to figure what was 蟹味菇 in English when it was those dainty shimeji all along. Baka.

The ingredients are fairly simple:

3 cloves of garlic (minced)
Mushrooms (I used buna-shimeji)
1 stalk of leek (sliced diagonally)
Prego mushroom carbonara sauce (1 can)
Ground/ Crushed black pepper
Parmesan cheese powder
Cooking oil
Pasta of choice (I used my Simpson's pasta. Try fettucinne or penne)

Heat up some oil in a pan. Once done, saute garlic, leeks and the mushrooms.

In another pot, boil some water and cook pasta according to its package til al dente.

After 5-8 minutes, empty carbonara sauce from can to the sauteed mixture and give it a good stir around.

When it starts bubbling, take it off the hob.

Serve hot by ladling the carbonara sauce over your desired pasta.

Top with some crushed black pepper, parsley and parmesan cheese.

Spaghetti Bolognese

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 21:40:00 +0000

Wednesday's dinner as per requested by Cuzzy - Spaghetti Bolognese

The sinful carbs

Bolognese sauce scattered with garden basil

The not-so-nekkid spaghetti adorned with roasted cherry tomatoes

Cuzzy had two helpings and there are still leftovers. As you can see, that big pan of meat sauce is obviously too much for 2. We've already seen it coming. Happens that we've gotta cook the entire bottle of sauce since our fridge is in comatose state still. But no waste though. I'll bring and keep it in the pantry fridge as joubisai.

Sigh. Dirty dishes piling up in the wash basin once again. Where's magic when you need it. Or Santa's magical elf. *drums fingers*

Anyways, one more day to Furridedayy.. Happy Thursday, people!

The Simpsons and Scooby Doo Pasta

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 15:50:00 +0000

Happiness comes in small packages :)

I went to work feeling awfully frumpy. Bad hair day paired with universal unrivaled retarded sense of clothing. It was one of those days when I felt horizontally challenged and physical beauty challenged. meh... Still, there were great people who made me count my blessings again by the end of the day. Blessed is me...

Buu was very sweet to bring me for Ice Age 3 tonight. It wasn't as sight-splitting funny as I'd expected. Perhaps I stacked my expectations up too high. Personally, I felt that kids may have problems grasping the jokes. I hear the adults laughing at them more than the children considering there were quite some kids in our hall. The saving grace for the movie was Buck Wild, the Weasel, with its piratey swashbuckling actions. I think inside everyone of us, there's a Buck Wild waiting to be unleashed. Of course, these are purely my personal opinions. Watch it yourselves for your 2 cents worth.

Nevertheless, i had an enjoyable time. The company was what made all the difference. Thank you, pumpkin for treating me to the movie! It definitely defused my tensed nerves.

Before the movie started, we went to Cold Storage. I stumbled upon these cute pastas and couldn't resist adding them to my pasta collection.

Priced at RM 8.99 each packet, these are certainly not cheap by normal standards. But a little novelty doesn't hurt sometimes, won't you agree? :)

Especially when your loved one's eyes sparkle when he/she peers into the bento......

Cabbage Rice and Nori Omelette

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 13:35:00 +0000

I love grocery shopping. But having plenty of groceries at home only means that food will go to waste if I do not utilise them. Sensibility told me to put my stocks to good use. My cabbage will be wilting soon if I do not finish them up. Uhm, cabbage is normally a hardy veg but because fridge is still in ICU.. my veges have to be finished fast.

Since I'm partially vegetarian now, I decided to fix something meatless for tomorrow's bento. At the same time also, kau-tim my dinner. With whatever I had at home, a simple and healthy vegetarian cabbage rice came into mind.

I also had plenty of eggs left which I did not wish to waste. Therefore I attempted to make Nori Omelette, whose recipe happened to be conjured purely out of my imagination. haha. I was expecting the worse but hey, the omelette managed to turn out fine. I like the whiff of seaweed smell that comes with it. If you're adventurous, do give it a go :)

Cabbage Rice

2 cloves of garlic
2 slices of ginger
Dried mushroom (soaked)
Cabbage
Rice
Oil
Sesame oil
Soy sauce
Dark soy sauce
Dash of pepper

Heat up minimum oil in wok. Add a dash of sesame oil.
Saute garlic and ginger till fragrant, then add in mushroom and stir fry for a while.
Add stir fries into rice cooker which is filled with the uncooked rice.
Add in the liquid reserved from soaking the mushrooms into the rice. Top up with sufficient water to cook rice.
Season with dark soy sauce for colour, dash of pepper and soy sauce for taste. Add more sesame oil if you like. Stir well.
Arrange cabbage on top of rice and proceed to cook rice as per norm.
For non-vegetarians, you may add some waxed sausages into rice to cook once the liquid appears dry.
Once cooked, serve with some fried shallots and garnish with spring onions.

Nori Omelette

2 eggs
Fish sauce and white pepper to taste
A slice of nori

Break 2 eggs into a bowl and season with some fish sauce and white pepper.
Tear up some nori into desired size. I tored mine up into a child's palm-sized pieces.
Fire up your wok.
Pour in half of the egg mixture.
Scatter nori on top.
Cover with the remaining egg mixture.
Brown well and flip the omelette.
Serve hot.

Note: Delicious with some Lingam's chilli for dip.

This is what I call killing 2 meals with 1 rice-cooker. Dinner settled. Tomorrow's lunch also settled :)

Hope everyone had a nice dinner.

Zorb Ball - Stroke of Spontaneity

noreply@blogger.com (spunkz) — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 11:15:00 +0000

Interested to see the picture which I was so engrossed in taking till I slipped and sprained my foot previously?

*drum rolls*

Right after snapping, I slipped off some tiny tangga.

*crash*

*ouch*

*keep straight face*

Ladies and gents, presenting to you....

ZORB BALL!

Still continue to take picture although foot was hurting badly. Malu la. Don't know who else saw me slipped. Can't decide I was paining from my swollen foot or bruised ego more. hurhur. If you notice from the angle of the pic, I was actually sitting on my sore bums then.

_ _

This is what plucky kids do nowadays on a Saturday noon after work. Drive through Taman Tasik Titiwangsa area after missing a turning to get to Setapak. Only to chance upon giant inflatable balls in the park. *eyes widen*

And what BIG BALLS zey are too.

Tell me, which girl can resist em? *evil glint*

Call us kukubirds spontaneity personified. We gaily hopped off the car and went for the kill.

"You want it dry or wet?"

Of course, we want it......

WET!

All strapped and ready to go!

The witch hobbled with an awkward limp like an old lady till Buu decided to piggyback her all the way across the lawn. See that green patch behind me? The Zorb Ball will be pushed across the slope-ish lawn, with us inside. Woohoo!

When the facilitators told us it was a roll of 30 meters across the lawn, we were rather skeptical. Woud the short span be enough to even excite or entertain us?

Boy were we wrong! So wrong!!

Imagine being stuck inside a washing mashine. And you spin... and spin... and spin... 30 meters now feels like 30 eternities. And water sloshes into your face each time you gasp for breath or try to stifle a shout. Awesome, ain't it? This is certainly our idea of fun. Yea...we are sick kids like that. Hop aboard if ya one of us!

The survivor

Lookie! We got in and out thru that puny hole, which was hell for my swollen foot. You literally need to jump to get in and push with your feet. I don't need to elaborate how comical I look when I got stuck halfway. drats! That was freaking embarassing. Apart from the embarassments, I thoroughly enjoyed myself! If anyone's going, gimme a holler. I wanna play again!

The dedicated team emptying water from the ball. Hard work under the scorching sun. Shouts to the boys. :)

If you're looking for a weekend of roly-poly fun, you know where to hit!

Charges:

Dry - RM 15
Wet - RM 20

We're gonna pick up something for Cassie's wedding dinner tomorrow.
Really? Cool!
Faster laa. I meeting people at 7 pm.
Okay! Coming!

In the car...

So where're we going?
Bukit Damansara.
Oh, how do we get there?
I dunno.

*shocked silence*

At Bukit Damansara..

Are we at Jln Beringin?
Uh dunno.. yaya! I saw the sign. So what's next?
Jln Setiabakti.

What are we picking up ah?
It's a crate of wine. Someone sponsored it.
So nice. Who ah?
I think it's Dan's uncle.
Can you get down and help me carry the stuff?
Sure. Yay, we get to keep a bottle for picking up.

Note the gullibility *snickers*

All eyes scrutinising...

It's here!
Noo... that's Setiabudi. *smacks*

Makes a big detour around Medan Damansara.

What are you looking for now?
A Secret Recipe.
Ohhh... Secret Recipe. I think I know where.
Wah Irshad, you so smart la. I should have asked you earlier.

*Buu sneaks slitty eye look at me*

Well, if you've had mentioned earlier that we're looking for Secret Recipe we'd have #$%^&* (inaudible since I covered his mouth by that time)

We met the legendary baking maestro Fatboybakes and picked up the "crate of wine". Someone's eyes nearly popped out.

On the way back to car..

Surprise!
*still shocked & can't stop laughing*

In the car..

Wasn't that the celebrity baker? You got me birthday cakes from the celebrity baker? Aaaack! How awesome is that! *hugs cakes all the way home*

.... turn left or go straight?
Straight!
Eh.. Stop! Traffic light laa.
Den you should tell me! It's not straight. It's STOP & go straight. *smacks*

*fight all the way home*
