Popeyes

Tried Popeyes on their first day of business!

Since everybody ordered the fried chicken, so I picked a different one, the Chicken Tenders, just wanna be different!

So crowded with buka-puasa people. And it was after some long standing before we got the table! 


Not really had special feeling on it..

But it’s good that KFC has a new competitor!

Xenri

Japanese fine-dining.. It was sooo good to dine in Xenri especially after some hard works today!!

0132_20090829_004_Xenri 0133_20090829_008_Xenri

You may customize your dining experience either into alfresco, private chamber, sushi bar or table-dining.

0134_20090829_011_Xenri 0135_20090829_024_Xenri

And as usual in Japanese cuisine, food is an art work!!

0136_20090829_027_Xenri

Look fantastic!! But too bad I’m not into beef.. Gyuniku Tataki..

0137_20090829_030_Xenri

Another appetizer for us, Salmon Skin Salad.. And this I like! Crispy salmon skin, not too oily, and fresh salads served with nice salad sauce sprinkled with sesame!

0143_20090829_039_Xenri

Sun’s Sukiyaki Zen..

0139_20090829_034_Xenri

It came with beef also. Taste very nice according to Sun but the soap was just little bit too salty.. But like most Hakka, I like salty food.. hehe..

0142_20090829_038_Xenri

My choice was the No.1 in the menu – Xenri Bento! I especially like the sashimi! One of the best I’d experienced!! May be I should have picked their Sashimi Set!

0144_20090829_041_Xenri

Yvonne was same, with Xenri Bento!

0147_20090829_045_Xenri

The bento also came with dessert.. strawberries!! Suitable for ladies..

0146_20090829_044_Xenri 0145_20090829_043_Xenri

Ladies, nice?

0148_20090829_047_Xenri

Wanna experience fine Japanese dining? You know where to go now..

总觉得不是人人都有幸参与这伟大的教育行列。多少心血,百年树人。孩子们,感恩吧!

《您》 茹翠芹

今天有感而发
依稀记得老师斥责的眼神
听见她责备的厉声
她是我记忆中印象最深刻的老师
老师 您
在我这张白纸上
留下了无数的痕迹
教会了我无数的道理
曾经
因您的斥责
伤心得掉下了眼泪
那颗赤子之心动摇了
那颗脆弱的心灵被砸碎了

就是因为您的一字一句
无形地在我的心中
奠下了扎实的基础
丰富了我的人生
而今的我
步上了您的后尘
希望
有一天

也会在某一个人心中
留下一页
留下那充满感恩的一页
谢谢您
祝福您

哎,借用一下!

朋友是拿来“用”的?

今晚又得感激辉的慷慨,给我利用了一下。感激他给我的忠告。。。
嘻嘻,选他只因为他的话最不留面子,也最难听;不过却发人深省。
朋友是拿来利用的?是真心帮助你的,应该也不会介意的吧!

Okay,这叫交心!放心好了!我不会over credit的。


Madam Kwan's的Nasi Bojari,portion也太大了吧!

Shiro

它也曾经得到过无数的青睐。奈何命运让它错过了寻找归宿的黄金时机。我总开玩笑说,新家里有着万千佳丽在等待着它。

有时在想,公认为人类最好的朋友,可能也是一件很无奈的事吧?它们的宿命操纵在人类的手中,任由摆布。

希望它下来的日子okay吧!

Laughing Gor – Turning Point

Laughing哥之变节,戏名听起来觉得可能会令我失望。机缘巧合下还是去看了。Storyline其实还okay,只是谢天华没多大的表现空间,毕竟好戏之人太多了。绿叶太夺目,反而让花儿失色。
整体还算可以啦!

赤子

经过岁月的洗礼,很多人性的根本都应当被洗刷得体无完肤。在很多历练都慢慢进化成智慧的时候,人心中的小孩是不是也慢慢被淹没了呢?

我是一个不断省思自己的人,让自己在到达某阶段时,作适当调整的人。改变不意味着过去的是错,而是可能已经不合时宜,如此罢了。

有时觉得自己过度老成。有时却也觉得自己像个小孩。其实,我庆幸自己心中的小孩还在某程度上活得好好的。

我们身边有很多返老还童的例子。看似孩提的各种表现,又有多少人尝试探视过老人们心中的那扇窗?

试想,失去了人之初的赤子之心,不也是一件可惜的事吗?

One Plus Shabu Shabu

No one can beat!

Didn’t pay much expectation initially as I’d tried their 1 Utama branch, and it’s slightly better than shit! And I went there this time merely for friendship..

0108_20090821_004_One Plus

But this one in Imbi is real good! Great taste of their soups, sauces and great fresh of their foodstuffs.. And I couldn’t stop myself asking people to go with me again to One Plus in Imbi!

0109_20090821_018_One Plus

And the reward winner this time is.. dang dang dang dang.. the char siew sou..!! Only bake upon order! And we had 2 dozens this trip! Never had so many char siew sou for just one dinner! It’s real good and so you must try it when you go!

0110_20090821_025_One Plus

So, anybody with me for the next visit?

循环

全屋英式怀旧傢俬,望得到咸蛋黄的阳台,这是我两年前对他说的dream house。可是,我现在看到这些傢俬,我觉得“娘”(老土)到爆;这样的阳台,我觉得很晒,很西斜!

原来人会变,感情会变。两年前,他是个“顺盘”(好男人);两年后,这个“顺盘”还在增值,可是我对他没感觉了。废纸还可以回收,感情却不能循环再造。我已经不爱他了!

TVB最新剧集的精彩对白。

烈火雄心3结局

刚看完了结局。结局是美满的,和雄心万丈的。

钟有成(王喜饰)在生命快要终结时,先想起他多时的“放不下”。然而,在人的生命终结时,固执还有它的份量吗?在那时刻,还有什么放不下的吗?其实有!是那些因被固执盲目了,而失去或错过的,真正值得他追求的东西。在临死前,他一定很懊恼自己为什么会那么“牛”吧!

他醒来时,也就不能再错过了!酱才接着有那美满的结局。

看来,有时人真的要学习放下,才能得到更多。

不错的戏路,少一点集数,可能会更好看。

翻开那个以民国纪事的年代

收藏家里黑白照的相簿恐怕要发霉了吧!准备为它们搬家。翻开了很多50年代的旧照,年轻的人,逝去的事物。一张张照片,记录了亲情,爱情,友情的可贵。

很多单人大头照,想必应该是在影楼拍的。有些还让影楼特意地上了色,一个黑白照的年代的创意表现。其中还有很多婚照,成双成对,偶尔还有两双的哦!

在那个以民国纪事的年代,互赠照片可是个年轻人的潮流。我想,当时拍一张照片,恐怕还不是一件易事吧!庆幸还有不少日常生活,各类活动的照片,记录了这家族的过去。

不少照片的背面,带有祝福,勉励,希望。读着现代难见的潦草字体,和那已大不一样的称谓,人名,修辞方式。。。翻着翻着,还挺有滋味。

这一辑照片,收藏了我思念的人,他们的美,家庭的爱,我的唏嘘,亲不在的遗憾。。。
摄影,让思念更感觉实在。

耍坏

真的不可以吗?我都想了很久勒。。。难道兽医就不能把头发染成橙色?难道兽医就不能穿耳洞纹身?

重温,回味

人们整天都说:“忘掉过去,向前看。”可是,不也就是过去的种种成就了现在的我们。往日的笑,呼唤眼前的珍惜;昨日的痛,奠定今日的坚强。偶尔回顾也无妨。千万别只顾着忘掉“过时了”的悲痛,而迷失原本的自己。也别只顾着怀念曾经的美好,而在原点踱步不前。

烈火雄心3

看了一小段《烈火雄心3》。

钟有成(王喜饰)复职,一切都表现得很normal,包括在卓柏宇(郑嘉颖饰)和高惠盈(胡杏儿饰)面前。落落大方,还装有心仪的人。晚上钟有成却不能眠,重复地听着高惠盈的真情留言。想delete却始终无法做到。

当他的手指放在delete键上,真的很希望他按下去。怎么不舍也好,起码忘记对他而言是好的。钟有成这份人也未免太“牛”了吧!他是对爱情的坚持,还是固执呢?他如果能忘记过去,也许。。。 不,是肯定!在前方还可以,也一定还有,值得他追求的东西。

可能忘记也需要智慧和勇气。

期盼有一个happy ending。

神!

方才connection断了。我急问:“哎,为什么线断了?”胜很不耐烦地说:“问我做么?我又不是神!”

胜的妙语连珠,表现得淋漓尽致。。。

曱甴

我这个淘气的外甥!

前几天在我整理着今年的生日礼物时,他忽然跑进我房间,说:“舅父,舅父,你看,曱甴!”
我望向他,惊魂未定。看不见什么曱甴的。。。
原来,他不知从哪拿来一根胶捆,含在嘴里,一边露出一端,惟妙惟肖地上下摆动。

太搞笑了!

方才他又来了。在我写着这篇博文时,他问了我一个问题。他问:“舅父,舅父,你知道英文里比较长怎样讲?”我答:“LONGER。”
胜说:“不对!是LONGER THAN!”我立刻傻眼。。。

情歌

错过的爱,都不能重来。

很多时候,可能来不及发现。有时发现了,却没办法捉住。尝试争取,换来的却是心碎。

曾对人说过,你喜欢一个人时,他可能没发现你,而当他喜欢你时,你可能已经把感情付托了别人。缘分,就是这样吧!遇上对的人是缘,时间也对上了,才能有缘有分。

今晚,听着梁静茹的《情歌》。

天堂

听起来很伤感勒。。MV里总是一个人。。

Minnie

Met her in Mid Valley during my first job. As the VO, I received both her and her brother. It was also the first time I saw Australian Silky puppies. Was already amazed by the beauty of Scooby (Wei Yii’s dog).. however these two puppies looked black and dirty!

They were extremely active and ran non-stop! It was a common practice to give a temporary name to every puppy received. I named her brother by the name of Mickey, so she’s Minnie!

They soon developed some coughing and was isolated in a room. Were treated long and this prevented them from being sold. There was many customers intended to buy, but was stopped by me because of the non-resolving cough.

I was still very fresh that time, did not actually realize that the coughing can drag so long before full recovery. Eric pushed me to buy one and be the Silky Gang. I was thinking that time that I would only buy one if my family accepts a dog to be indoor.

It took me some time to convince everybody in the house. Then it’s the experimenting time. Out of two, I chose the smaller her. But a puppy that couldn’t hold still even with my hands, could she pass the test?

Was the taking home day! A fart in the car was the first met gift for everybody. First image spoiled, I thought. Then the very gan cheong thing was the house-training. Methods used turned Minnie a bit coward after that, a regret.

But the whole introduction process was going through peacefully. No big havoc and no big mess. Which soon she was allowed to crouch on my Mom’s bed. And began sleeping with little Seng.

And hence added one new member in Chong’s family!

Minnie Chong, my adourable daughter!



Oranges Cafe




It’s a newly established cafe near my house. Tried a few times. Not bad! Just sometimes a bit too oily. I usually prefer tables along its kaki lima.

One day was having brunch there with these delicacies:


Jasmine green tea


Iced mocha



Cheese and ham sandwich


Sizzling curry fish fillets with rice



Seafood fried mee, very nice but a bit oily…
Already spoke to them to improve on the oiliness… hehe

And on the next visit for an early dinner, they really improved! Taste good and less oily this time!


Honey milk tea – with pearls!


Sambal prawn rice


Jasmine green tea, 100 Plus and my honey milk tea…



Cheese chicken chop

It's a family dining place!
