Ipoh - CIMB Colleague

Very good morning to auntie, mother of Addy, she is inside the shop.
We just arrived in Ipoh and fetch Addy to go dim sum... Yummy!!

Fu Shan again...
This is my second time to enjoy dim sum here, many of variety here, we can't stop eating and eating, really delicious...

But we are not enough full, we continue in Ming Court Dim Sum again...
Hahaha... No la, cause we need to meet up with Jeffrey, Vivian & Addy inside Ming Court...
I tasted the famous Cha Xiu Bao here, erm... not bad lor...

I thought this type of old designed building only happen in Hong Kong and Singapore also got one near to China Town, I took a picture immediately.
Beautiful old type apartment, I don't think it got lift.

We past by the old designed apartment and came to an old style Kopi Shop named Sin Yoon Loong, this is the HQ and they have another branch near to our CIMB office. The coffee and pudding here are nice.

As far as the introduction of Addy, this place named "Sham Pou Dong" (三保洞) which is famous in Ipoh.
After food and food again, we enjoyed our walk and photo section here...

Actually our major planning is to come Gua Temburung but, after food and food again, we missed the wet section here, however, if we want to join the wet section, we need to be here at least before 11am, we just took the dry section of 1 and 45 mins walk in and out.

Sean & me inside the Gua. It is cold inside and sometime windy also. The guide was showing us the special part of the Gua, some looks like girl, leg, octopus, KFC, dragon, kissing couple, sea shell... Quite interesting.
We need to be very careful when we walking inside the Gua, especially Koma & me cause we are over 180 cm.

We took a picture at the end of our journey, however the background is totally dark.
Haha, but we are happy there because our whole journey was talking Fion's cantonese, Koma's UK english.
After came out, our face looks tired especially Fion, she said that she got sport background, but we don't think so.
We can see that her face is turning white and green. Haha!!

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sooo beautiful...

We stopped at the side of road cause we saw many ppl lined up to buy the 'popiah' from a little old stall.
The old man of the stall is funny, he just poured water onto his body when he feels hot.
But the Popiah is truely tasty.

We had our dinner here.
1 day trip is tiring but we are all happy and contented.

Penang - Andrea, Cat, Giant, P&A

We were really enjoying the great dim sum in this famous ipoh restaurant named 'Fu Shan Restaurant'.
You know what, we woke up in the morning 4.30am and drove 2 hours all the way to ipoh town just to get a seat here for our lovely dim sum breakfast, what a crazy thought. But it feels good to me and dim sum is tasty too.

Penang Bridge.

Finally, we fetch Andrea, my buddy who was birth in penang. Our first station is just because of our curiosity that why many road were blocked, so we found out that it was a motorcycle racing.

Now we are five people, Cat joins us as she also another penang girl.

YumMY~~ This is the penang laksa that everyone can't miss. It just located at the downhill of Kek Lok Si. Especially Angie, she likes penang laksa the most. Yummy yummy...

Here is Kek Lok Si, we took many pics here, good for a walk after penang laksa, but I still thinking to have another bowl of laksa after here. Hehe!!

Time to dinner!!!

Ann brought us to a place near to Kek Lok Si also. Penang is the best place for 'little dish', many many food stalls, got fried oyster, penang chao kui teow, penang zhu qiong fen, popiah, penang curry mee.... If our stomach still can 'tahan', I want to order again and again... Yummy le..

The new Hark Rock Hotel in Penang which located at Batu Feringgi Beach, beautiful hotel.
This is the end of first day in penang. Then we back to our house(Ann's house).

Our second day...

Penang durian~~

Hehe~~ There was a scary story that hide behind which 5 of us will remember well.

The durian, erm, not bad but SS2 one is much more better because can eat till you vomit.

Snake Temple, scary snake...

We saw the snake show here, check it out, people kiss snake... "Ini macam pun boleh".

One of us is superfan of Starbucks, so we hang around in Queensbay Mall and also jumping around outside Queensbay Mall, guess what is the post of the 3 girls jump? Hoho...

"I Love U"
Our penang supper with fried fish, chao kui teow, chao mee and laksa ends our second day.

Third day and our last day in Penang...
We came here twice but still failed to go up Bukit Bendera. Too bad..
Check out our penang breakfast... Top choice is kon lou mee, second choice is the indian handmade pancake, haha, forget the name already...

We visit a temple after our breakfast...

On our way home, I go straight to Bidor for the famous duck leg mee... Yummy!!!

Sandakan - bring Angie back to hometown

SANDAKAN, Sabah, my lovely hometown. Seafood is one of the co-product in Sandakan. This restaurant is located at the first floor of a old shoplot, only local knows this place. The food is nice, fresh, BIG & cheap.

This temple named "普济寺", pronounced "Pu Ji Si" which located at the high hill of Sandakan. The view from the temple is the Sandakan old city. Sandakan also known as 'Little Hong Kong', because there is a view that shows Sandakan looks like Little Hong Kong.

Sandakan's famous animal --> Orang Utan. They live in Sepilok which is a wild & protected place.

My father's brother with light blue shirt spend me steampot buffet for dinner. Angie is here also but she was taking photo for us.

My father spend me & Angie for dinner at Sapporo Snacks House. There is famous on pandan leaf chicken and the food is cheap and tasty.

Angie love this cafe --> English Tea House. Quiet, windy & full of English old style feel, what a good place for chatting.

This home made meal was cooked by my aunty. Simple & simply awesome food. The green vege was picked from the back of my house which is planted by her too. I really miss the home made food which is not easy to have in KL city life.

Another Sandakan famous product --> Century Egg Dumpling. Wow! Simply delicious and you can't miss when you travel to this small town.
