26th Oct .. before to the Monkey Beach

There is one of the famous Roti Canai stall at Teluk Bahang... opposite Khaleel after Mutiara Hotel.

This small Mamak cafe, Ibrahim brings lots of memories for Hubby....

He used to come with his dad and mum and DURING THE BUTTERFLY FARM JOGATHON many many years back ..hahahah

So finally I am here with him and with my buddies .....

The roti canai indeed was very crunchy and nice ... Yummy .....

The Roti Canai ... nicely goreng and very nice and filing Rm0.80 per piece.

The VEGE curry that goes with the roti and Keith and Hubby mentioned the Fish Curry was good, but for me I dont really like it because of the Fishy smell ... :)

The Teh Tarik kurang manis was also very good......

Nice place for good Roti Canai !

Dinner at Paddington House of Pancakes

..Countdown to my birthday, since mum is not cooking dinner, me and hubby decided to go to QB for window shopping and dinner.

We chose this restaurant for our dinner.

They have 2 choices of seatings open air and inside the restaurant. For me I prefered to dine inside rather than outside merely because of privacy and cleaniness.

Suprisingly when we walked towards the restaurant, we were stop by the waitress telling us the section was closed... ( ha ha ha ) ... So the guided us to the outside table, I think we cant choose not too .. so ... :)

We ordered our food and really disappointed with the service and the food presentations, which the coffee spills all over the cup and saucer and the dessert than comes together with the main course. Reason why is they already prepared the dessert and unable to hold on till our main course finished.

Luckily the food was good, so we really dont bother about the service standard.

Hubby Main course, sorry I forgotten the name, was too disturbed by the ... U know what

This is mine, the sauce was good ....

My blended berries with mango drinks, Double Thumbs Up !!!

Can you see the messy cup ... Oh My god ! The waiter hands might be shaking ... ha ha ha

The dessert " Tressure Box" This is really good. The portion was big and very nice... Will try the next round.. But hope this time I am " allowed" to be inside ... ha ha ha

Hock .. to New Cathay Pulau Tikus 24th Oct

Hubby also ordered the famous curry mee. Suprisingly there is this long beans in the soup, which is special compared with other curry mee stall. This is a must to try ..

While we kacau-ing our friend Keith via sms on the nice food we had.. he called us to try to Roti Babi... This is the 1st time I tried this bread, and surprisingly it is not as oily as I imagined ...

The price was quite reasonable with the amount and quality of food they served .

We Chose the Porridge and Ocean King soup base ... The Porridge was Good .. As I am a ginger lover, I requested for More ginger and wow .. really good
The Ocean King is so so nia ... So next time NO NO for us ....
