Sushi Tei

I don't remember when was the first time i had Sushi Tei, but i still remember my companions (it was when we were doing A-Level!) 
It was the branch at The Garden that we first tried and today, i went there again. (with a different gang of people- the gang that love sashimi so much~ (except one.. hahaha))

The usual hot green tea for Japanese dining. (Sorry, i cannot accept cold tea. something's wrong with my mind. LOL)

The 5piece SALMON! for EACH person~
How can you consider urself having japanese food without sashimi?!

Salmon Mentai

Salmon roll (forgot the full name of it.)

Ebi Don

Cold Ramen with Sesame Dressing
this is my first try for cold ramen, surprisingly, it taste really good with sesame dressing. 

Review : 

  • The food (especially sashimi) is fresh. 
  • The service is great. We encounter 2 issue while dining. First, my friend feel the soy sauce taste weird so we ask the waiter what's wrong with it. We heard the waiter were asking among themselves who refill the soy sauce yesterday (they might have mix up the sweet sauce with the soy sauce when refill). Then, they recall back all the soy sauce from all the table and change it. *my friend feel so proud, since morning until then no one tasted the difference.*  Secondly, we found a hair in the ramen and we request for a change and the waitress gladly change a new one for us. 
  • Comfortable and clean dining environment. 
  • Reasonable Price. 
  • The waiting time is not too long. We went there around 1.30pm (still lunch hour and is weekend) but we waited in line for only about 5minutes.

Daorae Korean BBQ Restaurant

This is my first visit to Daorae Korean BBQ Restaurant although i have heard many good review about it sometimes ago but i only get to try it now! *so outdated!* 
We wanted to have a birthday dinner with Shereen but haven got any idea where to go, so let's just try out this Daorae Korean BBQ at SS2! (because is nearer to our place)



Fresh Vege (unlimited refill) for the BBQ... 

Steam Egg (one of the non-refillable side dish)

The main character of the meal!! 
Pork Special (特选猪肉)~  *delicious, the meat is fresh and juicy.*

Go-Cho-Jang Sam-kyub-sal (韩式辣酱五花肉)

Kimchi Jjigae

Kimchi-Jeon (korean pancake) Recommended! 

Review : 


  • The food is delicious and fresh. Lots of side dishes choices!
  • The service is awesome. Waiter/waitress will always be around, so convenience to refill side dishes and vege. (Side dishes is so important in Korean food esp. Kimchi!!! i can ate up to 3-4 plates of Kimchi alone!)
  • Comfortable and clean dining environment. Even with BBQ under A/C condition, it doesn't smell smoky at all. The waiter will help us to BBQ our meat (i guess most korean BBQ is providing this service beacause it's hard for the customer to cook the meat to the right medium) and after done with BBQ, they will take away the charcoal so you won't feel the heat right on your face with you dine.
  • Reasonable Price. (Free flow of water/tea!) Recommended!

For Pork Lover - MORGANFIELD'S

Morganfield's combines life's two greatest passions : music and great soul food.
Once i step into the restaurant, my mood is so on. The music and the surrounding lighten up my dining experience. *good choice of music but why playing Donald Duck cartoon?! not match at all... LOL*

This is my first dining experience at Morganfield's. Heard lots of review about this place from friend and we just went to try during the Raya weekend. Didn't follow the crowd balik kampung or go vacation (because i need to work on Hari Raya, no holiday for me) so we just hang out together.


Spicy Asian BBQ Spare Ribs 
Signature BBQ sauce mixed with Asian spice and chill flakes served with french fries and oriental salad.
The meat is really huge and juicy. You will have to take time to chew and enjoy ur food.
I don't really like the oriented salad, because the chips on top of it suppose to be crispy is not crispy.  *LOL*
We have 5people to share a full slab. *too many meat.....*
It would be great to have a huge group of people dining together (the more the merrier) so you can try out different type of meat/flavour.



Jack Daniels Glazed Iberico Baby Back   *Highly recommended*
The award winning recipe surely get you to beg for more, served with onion ring and coleslaw.
The baby pork rib is so tender and juicy, it melts in your mouth! What's more can you ask for?
Definitely my favourite meal of the night!



Pork Shoulder Chop
Pork shoulder loin served with red skin mashed potato, garden veggies and homemade creamy mustard grain sauce
The meat is grilled to perfection, not too hard or raw.  (you could probably try on this if you have less people in a group)
The mashed potato taste so good, the best mashed potato i had so far~



The mug is so cute too. Check out my pig nose.


Review : 

  • The food is delicious and juicy.
  • The service is great. Waiter/waitress will always be around, co convenience to refill drinks.
  • Comfortable and clean dining environment. Great music too. 
  • Reasonable Price. Although the price may look expensive but is definitely worth it!
  • Advisable to make reservation in advance. It's always full house! We gave our name when we arrive and waited 1.5hours for our turn! *it's nice that they call us, instead of just waiting outside of the restaurant aimlessly.*

New Chapter of life

After experiencing 2months of unemployment & fully relaxing at home, i finally got myself a job. Having to readjust my unhealthy biological clock after months of no day no night (无日无夜), no different between weekday/weekend (it make no difference to me except i get to spend more time with my mom and siblings on weekend.) is quite a challenge. I have used to sleep around 1-2am after watching drama/movie, wake up anytime i feel like to... *spoiled* But now... a different story...

I was lucky because i have a BFF that got unemployed by the that time too... *i shouldn't be happy about that because getting a job under current circumcision is too difficult*
We sent hundreds of application (maybe not even a quarter of it. LOL), been to few interviews, always stay positive about getting a good news.

Being Optimistic is so important!

Other than that, we went for sports few times a week. We went swimming, jogging, badminton & 健康操. I went to gym myself when we did not go for sports someday. OMG, i feel so healthy then. How to maintain the healthiness after work?!
I'm serious about being healthy, i feel my facial skin is better, more radiant and less pimples. my body system is better too and improvement in stamina as well... (这样的年纪了才开始运动。。。无言)

About my new job, my scheduled working hour is 9-6pm but no one ever get back on time! Sometimes during peak season (many people on leave/ large transaction volume, etc.) my colleague have to stayed up till 11pm. Hopefully i don't have to stay up till so late la *pray*
I know people in my department is very hardworking and always need to work OT... (working life = no life?)
Hope i can cope with the heavy (Super Heavy) workload. Wish the best for me...
My team member is will be on Raya leave this week... and i have to take over most of her job...
i just started to learn all this shit for only a week and then i'm on my own... *STRESS*

Here is my working desk.. Looks so professional with 2screen but... just the same daily routine.. i think i might get bored with the job so soon.... LOL


I'm taking the LRT and RapidKL bus to work everyday... So i'm consider an environmental friendly OL... OL life is not as fun as u watch from drama.. LOL
Oh ya, my department public holiday followed Hong Kong public holiday... so..... I still have to work on most of the Malaysia's public holiday.
Those who have the same day off with me and wanna meet up, we can have some catch up while others is working. Hahaha

Mississippi Avenue is quite a fun street to explore. Oregon is a green state, all the street is so clean and plants everywhere. Great for a relaxing walk.
Nice food and interesting shop to visit.
We spend about half a day in this avenue and it's our first visit here. Visiting non-tourist spot is one of the 'must do thing in our travel journal' *hahaha*
