Mai พะโลั

What is พะโลั ?

I was on the way to Penang this morning and dad decided we should stop over Kampar for his favourite Char Keow Tiao @ one coffee shop in Kampar that we visited on our last trip.

Unfortunately the Char Keow Tiao no open today. So, we have no choice but gets something else to eat. I turned and saw this พะโลั  on the menu... so i decided to place a order. This is the bowl of so called พะโลั

I snapped a picture and sent a copy to my friend in Thailand and guess what he came back with... "mai (in thai means Not) พะโลั na kub"... Oops~ he said " I think this is Kuay Jubb na kub".

So, i google and found out there is one youtube video teaching on how to make พะโลั

My next trip to Thailand... i must to try พะโลั na kub.

Taj Mahal

Finally i get to see one of the 7 wonders of the world during my India trip~ 

TAJ MAHAL 

Since young i wanted to see the Taj Mahal because the first time i saw Taj Mahal is the miniature model at my grandpa house. Now I finally got the chance to see and walk into the Taj Mahal... It was an amazing architecture with the rich stories behind the Taj Mahal... 

I have quite a few pictures taken in Taj Mahal that i planned to share in A picture A day starting Monday (Nov 3rd 2015) for showing Taj Mahal The Series... Stay tune and visit A picture A day eh~ 

Hazy? Misty?... Are disaster and raining days coming?

How do you feel if you sit travel on the boat and you hardly can see where are you heading, no visibility like the picture...

Worry?

Confuse? 

Insecure due to cannot see things clearly in front?

Hopefully nothing bad will happen? 

Keep praying?

A lot of unknown... 

So this could describe what happen and how i felt after hearing the Budget 2016. What will be Malaysia future? How are we going to survive with the hazy government, spending like water yet telling everyone we have money constraint.... hardly can see plan to fix the Ringgit dropping... So what do you think? 

After the hazy day... once you can see, it might have been the raining and disaster days... So let's prepare ourselves and get ready for the disaster and raining day in ahead of us eh~ 

Opportunities knocking your door...

When the opportunities come and knock on your door, what should you do? Answer?

Or stay behind the door and observe / analyst the situation...

Black & White photos...

Sometime it's nice to have black & white photos instead of colour... Do you see what i mean?

Go WESMEN Go...

Last Saturday, when i don't know what to have for lunch in JayaOne~ I dropped by Wendy since there is the simplest and faster lunch before 2pm investment sharing. Walked over to the counter and saw a food that reminds me of the days back in Canada...

Are you a fan of basketball? 

You must be wondering what is WESMEN in my post title. WESMEN is my University basketball and volleyball team. As a student, we usually get free games to watch when the team is at its HOME i.e. back in their own home ground. It was fun watching live with all the cheering, shouting and booing... etc. Not to forget we also have the vuvuzela that cheered the team.

Let me see whether i could find a youtube clip of the WESMEN playing at HOME. 

What you usually have for munching when you watch sports? In Canada, we would have one glass of Labatt Ice and the food that made me think of Canada...

Nacho with Cheese

Yes~ It's nacho with cheese... Yummy eh~

On learning investment

I have signed up investment classes to learn on how to invest with minimised the risk. It was a 4 days classes with multiple tutorial.

Have been looking at the chart and still not so confident to trade live. Still using the simulation to learn and learn. Am i losing opportunities?

The Zoo come to you...

"In other part of the world, we go to the zoo. In India, the zoo come to you" said our guide whom accompanied us in Agra India. 

This is really true after staying in India for 10 days. 

Did you recognize this?

How about this?

Goat on the road too... 

So do you agree with the tour guide... Zoo come to you in India~ 

Anyone been to India with the same feeling?

Sembawang White Bee Hoon Restaurant @ Singapore

Believe or Not people just queue up for food in Singapore. One of my friend queued up 2 hours just to have this...

叉烧饱

Cha Siew Pau

When she told me, I was like... why? I still can't believe people will queue up 2 hours for a 饱 ...

Another friend of mine told me this Sembawang White Bee Hoon Restaurant also need to queue for 2-3 hours... My first reaction was I can skip it... No way i will queue for food. It's really pack if you see the picture that adapted from Juicyfingers 

Picture from Juicyfingers

Guess what? My friend bought me to taste this White Bee Hoon in this restaurant last Sunday. Of course it was not as pack as what the picture shown in Juicyfingers blog. Otherwise, you will not see me eating in the shop. Neither do my friend who also no patient to wait for food.

Hazy day, Singaporean chosen not to go out. Blast aircon to get rid of the burning smell. Maybe this is one of the reason why this restaurant lost its SIGNATURE... QUEUE~

The food is very nice and i don't mind to pay a visit in the future.
