Genting with D Papa n Mama

Just some photos to share

this was 2 weeks ago where I went to Genting with my parents

Well I must say genting's weather is just ,,,,,zzang!! 
Me n my parents enjoyed a lot despite there's nothing much to do.
So we stayed in Awana hotel, one of the deluxe room. My mum specially requested for a Golf Course View room hehe.
The view is actually amazing!
So what we did was just chillax in the room, watch in-house movie n tv channels (includes some Astro Channels as well yay!) Then surf the net, well wi-fi is available at extra charge, RM25 for one day. I know damn expensive, but the connection was ok, n honestly, I admit Youtube n Facebook are my main source of entertainment every day.

Went up to the peak at night, just to yumcha and talk about our days...
Mommy is working hard right now, I know she's facing a lot of difficulties every single day, very grateful that she's able to cope with things and never give up. Listening to her stories was the least I can do.

Me and my angel.  

 Hehe dad n mom

 do we look alike??
actually i can't really tell lerr...but many people said so. 

 Now, food review :D
So, we had our dinner at Chuan Kie Restaurant at Gohtong Jaya
I found out about this place from internet, many favorable reviews were given to them. Turns out they are really good! In fact, the moment u step into the shop, you can't help but to notice the wall is fully covered with all the photos taken with famous artists that dined in their restaurant.
Anyways, I think the best part about this restaurant is delicious food and very reasonable price.
3 of us, 4 dishes plus rice n tea, totals up to less than RM60.

 The Famous Deep Fried Pork Belly

super crispy and fragrant!
Seriously you will ask for more once you tried it, the crunchiness is just awesome.
With dark sauce and sugar to caramelized it, love the taste!

I don't know the name of this dish. But I'll certainly order this again and ask for the name next time hehe.

Lots of veggies, mushrooms and also chicken cooked with light seasoning and some gravy.

The mushrooms are crunchy and I love the flavor!

Stir fried Yau Mak with Fermented Beancurd (Foo Yee)
Love this, there's mild spiciness with the cili padi while the Foo Yee adds a rich flavor to the veggie.  

Tofu with shallots and spring onions.

A simple yet delicious dish. The tofu was soft, with mild scent of soy beans, together with the shallots and onions, they give a crunchy and smooth texture and rich flavor.

Well in conclusion, I won't say the food is superb la, but given that most restaurants in Genting and Gohtong Jaya never really offer tasty food, this restaurant's dishes are beyond satisfactory level.

Next, supper yumcha at The Bakery @ Genting Grand Lobby Floor.

Yeap, with the chilly weather, you just crave for some hot drinks to warm your taste buds hehe...
I believe every one who went to Genting Hotel will definitely had seen The Bakery, the cute cafe with lots of breads and cakes laid out on the shelves and also as decorations on the walls...
The Bakery basically offers a wide range of pastries, bread and desserts like cakes, macaroons and tarts.
From savoury to sweet treats, you name it.

Omg look at all the delicious looking pies and pastries!!!

Here's what we ordered. 

Drinks From Left to Right:
Latte, Brewed Cofffee and Milo.

yea my mom is a huge milo kosong fan, everywhere she goes, thats her drink LOL
anyways, Latte was great, foamy, smooth and love the mild scent of milk and coffee when the smoke floats around. Dad said that his dark coffee was great too!

For the cake
We ordered a Chocolate Fudge
well most of the cakes available are cheesecakes, which my mom is not a big fan of it. So the only option was this chocolate cake. I like that it is not too sweet. Very fudgy i must say, lots of flour I suppose hehe. But it's still moist anyway, the texture is soft yet somehow chewy. 

In a nutshell, The Bakery is a pretty cool place to grab a cup of warm beverage, chill out while looking out to the scenic Resorts World Genting. The misty fog and cool breeze. Well the price, hmm, not cheap, but it's in Genting's Lobby, what do u expect haha....The bill was around RM45 (including tax and charges)

Lastly, Happy 26th Wedding Anniversary!!
I would say you guys are the don't-quarrel-can-die couple.
But thanks for never giving up no matter what obstacles come in life.
Thanks for all the love you've given me!

Day 2 - Genting

just as usual, we went to Genting on the 2nd day and this time we went to the themepark

but so sad it rained, very very heavily! we've only been to the pirate ship and spinner, and our tickets just went to waste, just like that :(

while it was raining, the 21 yearold bday girl wanted to enter the casino, leaving us YOUNG people alone....sad :(((((( 

the kids went to the indoor arcade, while me and my teenager cousin Zach went to Starbucks @ Highlands hotel

but damn sad, couldn't even get a seat, our legs were really tired but we have to stand there and finish our coffee...saddddd...damn "beh song" all those people who took a table without buying a drink...i will never go there again :( I rather pay a lil bit more to enjoy a cup of coffee at Bubbles and Bites

 Lunch @ Genting Theme Park Snack Kiosk

The Nuggets costs RM3.50 per stick, Chicken Burger is RM4.50

expensive, i know

After Genting, we went to Awana (again, just as usual)
had our Tea Break @ Golf Terrace
and of course, Pool time

The Nyonya Kuih was quite delicious, Teh Tarik was a bit too sweet

ordered their Laksa too, but so sad, it didn't taste as good as before :(

Day 3 
It was 2nd day of Raya, Visited a Haji's house, who is a friend of my uncle, at Kuala Pilah, Negeri Sembilan.
Beautiful house, big family, some of the ladies were wearing Baju Kebaya and Baju Kurung that looked really really pretty, think I'm gonna buy one someday :D
and the best part of course, Raya Food baybeh!!!!!
They were barbeque-ing one whole lamb(kambing bakar) at the courtyard, and trust me the scent of spice and also the charcoal was so tempting.
Then looked at the table, the traditional ones were there, Nasi Lemak, Lemang and Ketupat, and also grilled chicken, sausages and chicken patties..feel so happy man, it's like my first time trying out all the traditional Malay food at once, at a traditional Malay's house. Yes, at that time, I had the "I Love Malaysia" moment again.

Nasi Lemak with Kambing Bakar and Tempe 

The sambal was good, lots of onions which made it sweet and not too spicy.

The mutton was delicious, eventhough it takes some time and skills to chew it LOL

Very juicy and loaded with aromas of spices. Yum Yum! Love it.

Top left : Lemang, crunchy, taste awesome with the peanut sauce. 

Right: Ketupat, very soft and chewy...there's a mild sweetness from the rice..

Bottom Left: Delicious raya cookies :D

Left Kuala Pilah in the afternoon and head towards Ampang area to visit a relative's house...
had a great time watching TV while enjoying delicious food.
and of course, played posed with the Antique but still working Phone.

after dinner, went to Times Square for shopping
of course I didn't shop, the others did, in fact, to be precise, it was shoe shopping since everyone bought shoes only LOL
Had dessert at Sweet Chills

Raspberry and Chocolate Frozen Yogurt

After leaving Bukit Tinggi, we went to Bentong, Pahang for lunch...

went to this cafe that sells iced desserts and Yong Tau Foo

Kow Po Coffee Shop 球宝咖啡屋

It was crowded and it wasn't just Chinese, but Malays as well!

so yea it's pork free and the desserts are delicious. 

Cendol(Bottom-Left), Yong Tau Foo(Top-Right), RedBean and Corn Ice(Bottom-Right)

Yong Tau Foo was delicious, there's many variants of "FuChok", with different texture and taste respectively.

The Ice desserts were great, I like the red bean and corn one...

very crunchy corn and sweet red beans...plus a scoop of coffee ice cream...YumYum!
