Most of the guys I know hate strawberries. They think girls are stupid for liking strawberries so much because in Malaysia it is 1) very expensive, 2) very small, 3) very sour. I guess it’s because they haven’t get to try these humongous strawberry eh. So huge and sweet~

Wah… as big as my cheek also. Hehehe.

It looks so nice in photos. I think after this I will never want to eat any strawberries from Cameron highlands luu. Local strawberries are quite cheap now. 50 roubles/kg. (50/7.3 = RM6.80/kg) Still got 1 week here. Makan sepuas-puas only go home. Huahahaha.

Chi pai

Everyday we should keep on learning and strive to improve ourselves. So from cooking to roasting char siew… and to baking chocolate cakes and cheesecakes… we learn to bake chicken pie!

This morning, I have a craving to eat chicken.
Qi Jie wants to eat cibai chi pai.

So…

We added butter and flour and water… and ’some’ salt (actually he added too much salt)…

Cooked the chicken….

And…

Here is our cibai chicken pie!

This is hawaiian flavor —> we copy this recipe from someone selling pies here. Turn out to be a great success but the crust tasted a bit funny… (Qi Jie where did u get the butter from?)

chickenpie_curry.JPG
Curry flavor, adapted and modified from curry puff recipe. 50% failure bcos too much peas and salt. Lol.

I know this post is a bit lame. But currently I feel so down. Coudn’t think of anything to blog.
Coming… coming… I hope something inspirational will come soon.

Chicken rice, Duck rice, roast pork rice. So they said, the most famus roast duck rice is in Bayswater, London. There were many shops there but 4 seasons restaurant is the best among all of the shops there and ppl say Chinatown roast duck rice is to tipu angmoh lang wan bcos it’s not nice and expensive. =D Because mum dun let me eat duck cos she say it’s very “tuk”… so I order roast pork rice instead. Cis, Ken was eating his roast duck happily. So menjeleskan. So if you are happen to be in UK, stay there, study there, go try la. *Psssttt insider info, if you show them student card, you will get 10% off the bill.

Ramen Mania I

Ramen, Ramen, Ramen, Ramen, Ramen sukidayo!!!~
Most of us love japanese food but not all the shop offer delicious ramen. So this holiday, got 3 “fai chai” very free and they go around trying out to find which ramen is the best in town. And mission starto!~

Nippon Yataimura restaurant, LG 1U, in between new and old wing, next to secret recipe and opposite memory lane.

ny_tanglung.JPG
One of the reason why I like this place is because of the decoration and the lanterns and mini curtains! Feel so japanese, like eating ramen at tepi jalan.

ny_lynkif.JPG
Introducing you the 2 main “fai chai” of today mission, Kyira and Kif. They are the baddies that intro me to Dota and get me addicted and play everyday lol!

ny_ramen.JPG
Kimuchi(Kimchi) Ramen and Nori Ramen. Kimuchi ramen taste really nice! I’m not sure about the Nori ramen (bcos Kif order it) but it smells good. There’s another one that I like is the Spicy Ramen.

ny_foodfight.JPG
Itadakimasu!!! Seeee…. I think my Kimuchi ramen definitely taste better than his one. But hahaha didn’t know that he cannot eat spicy food. The kimchi made him cough non-stop. (Haih…. so means cannot bring Kif along for next session of Korean food?)

ny_ebitempura.JPG
6 months I dreamt of it day and night. Finally my mum lifted up the barrier from me for prawns!!! Waaahhh nothing taste so heavenly like tempura! Hahahahahaha……

ny_sushi.JPG
We tried ordering sushi there as well… but eeerrrhhh the sushi looks messy. Seems like ramen specialist couldn’t make good sushi afterall.

ny_scandal.JPG
And then the wasabi made them goes crazy. Princess Kif propose to Prince Kyira. Lol. See how excited she is!

ny_fakeramen.JPG
After the meal, Kif complains he’s still not full so he tries to tabao the ramen on the wall as well! This fella eat ramen until “siong yan” already.

ny_lazyracoon.JPG
Aaaaahhhh… so full and satisfied like this lazy racoon above us.

Oooh forgotten to add this. Each bowl of ramen cost rm13. Green tea = rm1. Wet napkins are free of charge (Dragon-i charge you rm2 each). Cheap right?

Best hotdog in Moscow

European countries are famous for hotdogs. Russia as well. Forget about McD and KFC. When you visit Moscow, you must try STARDOG (стардог)!

datskihotdog.JPG
This is my all time favourite hotdog. Big Datskii hotdog, cost about rm8. So huge, so nice to eat,so filling. =) You know, during my radiotherapy I just can’t stop thinking about eating stardog.

fransuskihotdog.JPG
This is the other type of hotdog, the Fransuski hotdog. Though it looks obscene, when u eat also looks obscene but it taste really gooooooodddd!~

huimin.JPG
Stardog just taste so good that Huimin is running with my hotdog as well. Ciao~ I need to kejar balik my hotdog.
