Plan B Restaurant @ Bangsar Village I

There is a well known restaurant called Plan B located in Bangsar Village 1. I've heard some good comments from friends who have been there, so a few of us decided to pay the place a visit. Surprisingly at 7pm there was no line outside the place was packed.

 The simple menu

 Lime Juice @ RM10

 Asian-Style Golden Soft Shell Crab Spaghetti @ RM22
It was swimming in cream that made it heavy and difficult to finish.

 Spaghetti Marinara @ RM19

 Spicy Crabmeat Spaghetti @ RM22
The flavor of the spicy prawn oil is very pleasant.

 Wild Mushroom Linguine @ RM19
Scented with thyme truffle oil & lemon with lots of wild mushrooms!

 Moroccan Lamb Meatballs with Spaghetti @ RM19
In smokey eggplant and tomato sauce!
 Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream

 Rocky Rocks @ RM5

 Chocolate Truffle

 The guys (from the left) - Chin, Xavier, Davin & Jared


I love the food, the concept and the ambiance that Plan B creates. However, I hope the management can do something to improve the quality of the restaurant services. Services was painfully slow, and we had to continuously ask for water, cutlery and menu.

New look for the Ringgit from mid 2012; RM20 note to come back!


KUALA LUMPUR: The Ringgit will be sporting a new and exciting look, with the RM20 note making a comeback.

The new banknotes, except for the RM50 note which has been in circulation since 2007, will be in the market beginning mid next year.

The fourth series of the RM50 note was issued in commemoration with Malaysia's 50th Merdeka Day celebration.

The complete new Malaysian currency series - which also include the RM1, RM5, RM10, RM20 and RM100 banknotes - was launched by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak on Wednesday.

Samsung Galaxy W (Wonder)

I bought myself a new Android phone for  this year's Christmas, making my Christmas very wonderful!  It's really wonderful, you know why? It's because of the phone itself called 'Galaxy Wonder' - new launched in the market.

 My first Android phone

For the longest time, Samsung didn't have an Android phone that's not too big nor too small for an average ladies' hand. That's very surprising considering that Samsung has released oodles of Android phone of all shapes and sizes.. but not the 3.7" screen size with at least 1GHz processor type of phones. This Galaxy W has a 3.7" screen size with the same resolution as that of the Galaxy S but with a more powerful 1.4GHz processor. It also comes with a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash and 4GB internal storage.

For me, Galaxy Ace is underpowered and undersized; the Galaxy S so last year and too big; and the Galaxy S2 too pricey for a phone. Thus, i think this Galaxy W could be a nice compromise. The screen is not too big to attract attention but not too small for surfing either. The processor is powerful enough to run most if not all, current apps today smoothly.

 I Love this Galaxy Wonder!

The Street Cafe, Subang Jaya

It's another Friday night. Here I came to The Street Cafe, treated myself with delicious dessert. I love spending time with my best ex-roommate and university friend. 

 So called 'Korean Ice Kacan'. This portion can be shared by 3-4 people.


 It looks like Sushi roll, right? But this Korean style steamed rice roll tastes really good.

My ex-roommate Polly *^.^*


Thanks Alvin, the cameraman =p

KimchiHaru @ SS15, Subang Jaya

"Eat healthy at KimchiHaru", this is what i saw from their website. This restaurant is a little bit different from other Korean restaurants as it does not have "meat + roasted meat" which is so called barbecue.

Unlike other Korean BBQ restaurants, KimchiHaru provides only two side dishes which are fruit salad and kimchi. The one I always look forward is Kimchi, a traditional Korean pickled dish that is made of pickled cabbage in a spicy sauce.

 KimchiHaru uses one and only 'Vegetable broth' (made from 12 fruits and vegetables) for seasoning.

 Sweet and Spicy Chicken Nugget 6pcs RM8.90 *to be honest, it tastes weird*

 I ordered this Bulgoki Bibimbap RM17 *very authentic*
(you can choose either chicken/ meat/ pork)

 Kimchi Soup with rice RM17

 Jun & Me

 Fellxion & May

 Souvenirs that I bought from Thailand

 Well, they looked happy receiving the souvenirs XD

无题

一会儿思索,一会儿沉醉;
一个人烦躁,一个人体会;
盼望过,也绝望过,却无法彻底放弃;
好比死后挣扎,迷茫的,徒劳的;
无奈的心情比上忧伤来得更深刻,更难以抒怀。

发现了自己的渺小,发现了世界的残酷;
很多东西并不是自己能够掌握的,更别妄想要驾驭之;

活在自己的世界太久,己难分真实假象;
你希望美梦被惊醒吗?
回顾过往,发觉幻想太多,
就像为自己编写小说,设定梦寐以求的情节,
独乐乐的享受是难以形容的。

另一种说法是每个人应活在自己的世界里,
只有坚定的活在自己的世界里,才能做完一些事情;
若一颗心放出去,面对众多标准和概念的干扰,
该如何走路大概都是一个问题;
一条狭窄的小路走到黑头,胜似在人群熙嚷的大广场里游荡徘徊。
在广场里若只学会游戏和娱乐,失去方向没有目标,而那个孤单且坚定的人却已经上路了。

人生如梦,是是非非分不清;
黑白之间必有灰,也没有所谓的对与错;
个人基础很重要,必须持续不断的磨炼;
根基打得好,房屋才能建得高,建得稳。

Radio Midas - Horoscope 星座之谈

After some years, this video has finally been uploaded on Youtube! 

Oh man! I really miss performing a variety tasks on the off the air. I miss interviewing guests and moderating discussions. I miss operating the control board, monitor the transmitter, playing recorded music and producing other recorded material. This kind of memory is very precious and unforgettable. 

Below is one of the recordings that I like and it's on the last day I on air with my partner.

Da Sa Rang Korean Restaurant

My younger sister suggested to have Korean food for family dinner,so she picked this Korean Restaurant - Da Sa Rang. I was the first person who raised my hand up as I really love Korean food!

Just like the typical Korean restaurant, we have to sit on the floor but there’s a compartment under the table for us to put our leg. So you can either fold your leg in or sit normally as if you are sitting on a chair. 

 My first order was this - Onion Pancake (RM25)

 My all time favourite - Bim Bim Bap (RM20)

 My dad ordered this seafood noodles soup *the soup tastes really good*

 We shouldn't order this because it's too spicy and not appetizing

One thing I like about Korean food is they have unlimited refill of side dishes and each Korean restaurant have their own selection of side dishes. 







Da Sa Rang has a variety of set menu that you can choose from, ranging from RM 40 to RM 300(inclusive of rice, noodles, seafood steamboat, marinated meat, drinks and etc). But we ordered the a-la-carte pork and marinated chicken set.

 BBQ pork and marinated chicken set (RM29 each)

 Korean style sauce for BBQ pork (a bit of sweet)

Congrats to Shin & Weai!

Everyone knows that graduations are very important in a person's life. Well, I personally think that a graduation signals a person's first step into the "real world". I hereby writing this post for my very good friends who graduated recently! Congrats to them - Ms Fell & Ms Wong! 

Happy graduation! We are waiting for you to make a significant contribution to the development of our country. After all, we live here! 

They have finally graduated after few years of hard work, sacrifices and perseverance. What about a big clap to them? When I looked at them wearing robes and caps, it reminded me my graduation which was a year ago. However, we should look forward instead of looking backward. 

Let's look at the photos we took yesterday! Yeah!
