2008 vs 2009

Wow, I can't believe that 2008 is coming to an end... It has been a relatively good year for me. I did some of the things that I never thought I would ever do.

I swam with the dolphins in Hawaii.
I went to Las Vegas.
I rode on a roller coaster.
I started blogging.

Hopefully 2009 will bring more first times. On my wish list:

Visit Europe.
Visit Japan.
Maintain a healthy diet and look good in jeans.
Join a gym and actually make full use of it.

Happy New Year everyone... xoxo

Updates

Hey everyone..It's been quite some time since I blogged. No reason whatsoever. Hahaha..

1.

It was quite a stressful week last week when I found out that some @$$ stranger had stolen my credit card number and racked up such a huge bill. Still working with the bank on this matter. They say it will take 4-6 weeks for them to carry out the investigation. Hopefully everything will be ok. I am just so furious! Seriously people, why steal from other people? How bout go out and get a job??

2.

The weather now is so so cold. It is so cold that if I leave a water bottle in the car overnight, it will freeze. That's how cold it gets. *sigh* I love the boots but not too crazy about the weather

3.

aaaahhhhh...I feel so relieved... I am done with my research paper for the Social Problems class I am taking this semester. That was a major contributor to my stressful week too :) One more to go though. I have to take the final exam.

4.

Been eating too much lately. Seriously, I am never full!

5.

Counting last night and today, I have had 8 Ferrero Rochers (p.s. having one right now as I type)

6.

It is starting to sink in now. I am leaving and coming back home. It is definitely bitter sweet...

Surprise...surprise...

I woke up this morning and this was what I saw...

It finally snowed a lot :) I love the snow but hate it when I have to brush the snow off the car in the freezing cold. My fingers go numb...brrrrrrr.....

I was out in the snow twice today. Once in the morning and once in the afternoon. I love playing in the snow. Makes me feel like a kid again... Snowball fight!!!

Thanksgiving and Black Friday...

I had a blast on Thanksgiving (ate a ton) and went shopping the next day (Black Friday). Wohooo!! Eating and shopping, my two favourite things to do :) Will blog about it soon... xoxo

Boo!

This year for Halloween, I decided to fork out a decent amount of money and got myself a costume. Initially I was kind of reluctant to get a costume which I was only going to wear once. But heck, I thought. I have to get into the spirit and this was going to be my only chance to celebrate Halloween here in the States. Also, I am not as creative as Itos in devising my own costume (which by the way, she did an awesome job!). So on the eve of Halloween, Becs and I decided to do some last minute costume shopping. After several hours of trying on different costumes, we ended up buying the same ones. Hehhehe... It was a close call between becoming a Devil or Robin Hood. I decided on the later because it was longer and was not as tight as the Devil costume. And yes, of course being me, the Robin Hood costume was much more expensive than the Devil one. *aih, susah ada taste mahal nih.... hahahha..*

I was lucky enough to get the day off on Halloween. So Itos and I had a great day. We started our day by having some Indian buffet. Yum, the food there is so good! Then off we went to get some last minute Halloween stuff at Walmart. We got some white face paint, decorations, candy, etc. It was so much fun seeing everyone doing their last minute shopping! Then we went to a bakery to get some cupcakes as well as dinner (we got Popeyes fried chicken..yum!) to take to our friends house. Then off we went to start our Halloween celebration.

This year for Halloween, I went for trick or treating (and no, we didn't bring kids along.. we were the kids! muahhahahha). It was fun going from door to door getting candy. Later that night we went to a nearby club to check out the Halloween celebration there and enter a costume contest. It was fun seeing all these adult dressed up in really cool stuff. All hoping to win that $500 cash. I was hoping Itos would win since she was as scary as hell as Hantu Susu (complete with baby that talks in tow). But the winner was a guys dressed up as Michael Jackson with a boy on his crotch... hehhehe...I must admit that's pretty cool.

I must say that it was a great day. I am glad that I got into the spirit and bought a costume that I'll never wear again. But then again, whose going to arrest me if I show up at KLCC dressed up as Robin Hood right?

It's been a long long time...

... since i blogged. I don't know. *aih* There's so much to write about but I just can't seem to put it down. I want to blog about my trip to Great America (where I actually got on a roller coaster!), Halloween, Medieval Times, etc etc. I will... I just don't know when... I'll leave you guys with some pictures though... Stories to come...

Remember the Stratosphere?

Remember my previous entry on the Stratosphere? Ala, the one where I wrote about the hotel that has 3 pee-in-my-pants rides? Here's a picture of it. So those rides I was telling you about is on that very top of that tower... Care for a ride???

Vegas - September 21, 2008

Oh no....It's Sunday! Good bye Vegas, hello reality... Oh.... Why do holidays have to end? Why can't it go on and on and on? *sigh* Woke up early...Wanted to explore Vegas one last time before heading back to Illinois. Honestly I don't know where I get the extra energy from when I'm on vacation. I'm like an Energizer (or is it Duracel?) Bunny that can move it, move it (compared to when I'm home and like a Bateri jenama X Bunny!!!)... Muhahhahahha...

Asked whether anyone would like to come with me to explore but they were all not up for it. So off I went on my own with a mission of getting to see as much as I can without missing my flight. Looking at my watch I had approximately 3 hours or so before we had to leave. Armed with my camera, I walked to the Caesars Palace Hotel (ala, yang Anita Sarawak and Celine Dion pernah perform dulu) which was literally 5 minutes walk from the Mirage. And in case you guys were wondering, it is Cher that is performing at Caesars now. Caesars is gorgeous and very opulent. It's cool that they have the Pussycat Doll's club as well as a PDC themed casino. The dealers were all hot (and some so-so) girls clad in PCD style outfits. It was very pink and it was cute! Also, like The Venetian, Caesars has an indoor mall with the same kind of ceiling (clouds) and a huge indoor fountain. Again, my mind was confused and thought that I was outside! Roamed around the mall for a while, got lost in the mall, didn't know how to exit, asked a lady for directions (whom I must say was very nice and polite) and finally found my way outside. hehehhe... Time was running out so I walked back to the hotel and after a couple of minutes all 4 of us took a cab and off we went to the airport.

The flight back home was good. Slept for at least half way through the journey. Was reluctant to leave Vegas but happy to be back to Illinois (really? :P) muhahhahahhhaa...

That's it folks...Finally, I'm done with my Vegas stories. Hope you guys enjoyed reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it... And a word of advice, when you can, do come to Vegas and don't forget to get me a plane ticket too...

Vegas - September 20, 2008

Oh no... Today was my last full day in Vegas. I didn't want to leave. There was so so much more to see and do. So many places, so little time! Oh no, no, no... I want to stay for another month or so. I wish *sigh*

Oh well, got to make the best out of the situation and move it..move it.. So woke up and got ready early and ventured out into this great massive concrete jungle called Vegas. I love you Vegas... You are awesome!!!

In order to cover more of the Vegas strip, Itos and I decided to purchase the unlimited day pass on the monorail (which turns out to be worth every penny spent!). This was a great move since we saved a lot of time having to walk the entire Vegas strip. The strip is pretty much a long stretch road filled with rows and rows of hotels. We saw the MGM Hotel (massive!) and also the lion habitat located in the hotel. It is pretty cool since the only thing stopping the lions from attacking all of us are glass walls. The lions looked pretty sedated though. I guess they drug them or something (tak pun kasi panadol! haha). We also saw the Mandalay Bay Hotel (and saw a lesbian couple getting married at the chapel there! only in Vegas!). New York New York (it's so cool with the replica of the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, NY Public library etc.). Paris (yes, you guessed right, with a replica of the Eiffel Tower). We also saw Excalibur Hotel (which looks like a castle), Luxor Hotel (resembles the pyramid), Monte Carlo Hotel, etc. We also stopped by at the M&Ms store. It's so cool in there and way bigger than the one in New York with tons of yes, M&Ms, other candy, souvenirs, etc.

Oh, and we saw the Stratosphere Tower Hotel from the Sahara Hotel (which by the way is the most cikai on the strip...Note to self: never stay at the Sahara if I go back to Vegas ever. But tell sworn enemies to go to Sahara! muahhahahhaha). The main attraction of the Stratosphere Hotel (http://www.stratospherehotel.com/thrills/) is the 3 thrilling rides which is located more than 1,000 feet above the Vegas strip. It's crazy!!! Never in a million years would I ever do any of those rides even if someone paid me a million bucks...It looks so so scary! The description of the rides are as follows:

Big Shot - Shoots passengers straight up 160 feet at 45 mph (over 4 Gs) until they are 1,081 feet above the Strip.

X-Scream - A giant teeter-totter that propels you 27 feet over the edge of the Tower, 866 feet above the ground.

Insanity, the Ride - A massive mechanical arm extends 64 feet over the edge of the Tower and spins you at a force of 3 Gs for a truly mind-bending experience.

C.R.A.Z.Y!!!

That night Itos and I went to see The Crazy Horse Show at the MGM Hotel (highly recommended). Becs and Baz went to see a Cirque show 'Love' at The Mirage (also was spectacular).

A tiring (having cramped all those sight seeing in one day!) yet enjoyable and always exciting day in Vegas...

Vegas - September 19, 2008

Itos and I made a promise to each other that by hook or by crook, we were going to go to the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum that day. We were suppose to go yesterday but because we were distracted with other activities, we decided to postpone it till tomorrow. So we woke up bright and early and got ready. According to Itos, when she was in Amsterdam, the line to the Madame Tussauds was so so long that she did not get a chance to go in. So, in order to beat the crowd, we wanted to make sure that we were among the first to arrive. Yay! We got there early and there wasn't a line even! wohoo!! Also, we managed to get student priced tickets (all thanks to my CLC student ID). The wax museum was fun and we took so so many pictures there (ambil gambar tak hengat!!!)...hehehhe...My favourite has got to be Johnny Depp. He looks pretty real. Julia Roberts did not look anything like her. When I first saw the was, I thought it was Hillary Swank, so go figure! We spent about 3 hours there. After getting some stuff from the gift shop, which by the way has really really cool stuff we went to the Venetian Hotel. As the name suggest, it has a Venetian theme to it. Hence the gondolas and the Italian art decor. It's really cool. Having been to Venice, it was fun to see the Vegas version of it. I must say they did a good job!

Most hotels in Vegas have huge shopping malls within the hotel itself and the Venetian has an awesome one. It is an indoor mall with cool architecture. Besides having a river flow through the mall (gondolas and all, with the gondolier singing), the roof of the mall is painted to mimic the sky on a nice sunny day. So when you look up you see a nice blue sky with pretty clouds. Look closely at the picture of me in the mall and you can see the sky. Isn't it cool? And the thing is, your mind gets confused and tricked into believing that you are actually outside when you look up to see the ceiling! I like. Then Itos suggested that we try out the Oxygen bar. You're suppose to inhale oxygen and then they give you a head, hand, and back massage. Supposedly it's suppose to rejuvenate your body (konon!). That I felt was something we had to try but would never do again :P Mahal woi! It cost us about $60 for a 45 minutes session. Ceh!

Later that afternoon, we went to the outlet mall for some shopping. Boy was I excited! You know me, always out there looking for a good deal. So outlet malls are like a slice of heaven for me. The outlet mall that we went to was an outdoor mall with rows and rows of stores such as Juicy Couture, Aldo, Coach, Armani Exchange, Fossil, the list goes on. And yes Shereen, you and I can shop till we drop there and camp overnight for more shopping the next day! We didn't have much time so we had to rush through the shops. *Aih* I am happy with my purchases. I got myself an Ed Hardy hoody and a Bebe t-shirt. I must say, I am very proud of myself for being able to contain myself and not buy too much! Granted that we didn't have much time...hmmm...Itos got a couple of good deals too. She got herself an Ed Hardy hoody too (kami kan kembar siam), sunglasses from Fossil, Armani Exchange t-shirt, and sandals from White House Black Market (Obama's wife Michelle likes dresses from here!).

Later that night we went to California Pizza Kitchen for dinner. I had some kind of Thai Spaghetti (tak sedap!) and Itos had pasta soup.

Again another great day in Vegas!

Vegas - September 18, 2008

Thursday (September 18, 2008) - I couldn't wait to wake up!!!

Despite having slept late the night before due to all the excitement that Vegas had to offer, I was up so early. I looked around the room to see whether anyone was awake. Nope, they were all still deep asleep. *sigh* I thought to myself. I want to get moving. I want to explore! I want to soak in the sites. I wish I had the same kind of energy when I am working or studying! hahha....Not happening anytime soon! :P

After contemplating for about 15 minutes I decided to get ready and explore on my own first. Time was precious. I didn't want to waste any time at all. So off I went exploring on my own. I pretty much explored the hotel where we stayed at, The Mirage. In Vegas, each hotel was ginormous with tons of attractions. You could spend a whole day (literally) at each hotel just exploring the sites and the unique attractions that each hotel has to offer. So by the time I was done, Itos was up and came to meet me at the hotel lobby.

Off we went to explore another hotel called TI (old name Treasure Island) (dunno why they changed it from Treasure Island to TI, errrmm...Malas nak eja panjang-panjang kot! :P). Then later, we caught the Sirens of TI show. That was by fluke actually. We were on our way to meet up with Becs and Baz at the Fashion Show Mall when we saw this huge crowd of people waiting on the streets. Having have read the Vegas guide book, I pretty much knew what it was. So we decided to catch the show. Heck, it was free and because we were staying at The Mirage (which was a sister hotel to TI among others) we were able to stand at an allocated spot! wohoo!! That was nice. The show was alright. It's on a huge makeshift boat with a river flowing through it and all. There was even fire and fireworks as part of the show. The 'sirens' were hot sexy female pirates all dressed in scantily clad clothing and baring their assess. Heck, I saw more ass in Vegas then I have had in my entire life! hahhaha... Yes guys, save up your money and come to Vegas for some ass watching! Hahahahha!! So these sirens are vicious hot mamas who captured a pirate (lucky lucky man!). So the story revolves around how his pirate mates tried to save him la di da and in the end they all got together. The usual..

After the show we went to see Becs and Baz. The mall was really nice with all the branded stuff. But I was saving my money for the Outlet Mall (I'll write about this in my next entry). Becs got stuff from Betsy Johnson (I'm so jealous of her really gorgeous hot pink dress! It's fab!!) and Baz did some shopping too at Nordstroms etc.

After, we went back to the hotel. I was pretty exhausted. From all the lack of sleep! hehehhe... So off I went to bed. zzzzz...

Vegas - September 17, 2008

Hey guys...As promised, here's my first Vegas entry. Enjoy!!!

Wednesday (September 17, 2008) - Excited, excited, excited!!!

I woke up early today at about 8 am. The taxi wasn't coming till about 11.30 but I had to run a few errands before I left for Vegas. In total if I had to guess I only had about 5 hours of sleep. Between the excitement of leaving for Vegas, packing, washing my hair (yes I waited last minute so that it would look good for Vegas...hahah), and being on the computer I slept late. Oh well I thought, I'll be able to get some shut eye in the plane. So I woke up, took a shower, straightened my hair, and got dressed. I left the house at about 9 am while Itos was still in dreamland (damn lucky I thought to myself..ehheh). First stop was the library to return some books. Next was the bank to deposit some money into my checking account. Then went to get my eyebrows done. Finally I had some time to spare and went to a store to return some clothes. And whalla, I was back home with 30 minutes to spare! yay!

Itos and I reached the airport at around 12.15 and everything was smooth sailing. The airport was not too busy and security check went well. The only thing that bugs me is the new ruling that all airlines here have. You have to pay $15 for each bag you check in. Urrgggghhh...

There we met Becs and Baz who were going to Vegas with us. They just got in from London and I was very happy to see Becs since I haven't seen her for quite some time. She was lucky enough to have gone to London and Ireland prior to her Vegas trip! Man, I'm jealous!! :)

I knew I was in Vegas when once I stepped outside, I saw rows and rows of slot machines! kaaaaacccchhhhiiiinnggg!!! Man that was exciting. The four of us stayed at The Mirage on the strip (good location as it is right smack in the middle of all the action). The room is gorgeous and spacious. With a huge flat screen and the beds, oh my, were they comfortable...It's like sleeping on a bed of clouds...

We chilled in the room for a while, unpacked and got ready to go out again. We decided to have dinner at the Cravings Buffet in the hotel itself. The food was good and they even had sambal (chili paste) with bubur (congee)! wohooo!! That was great...My other favourite was their shrimp dim sum. I had a ton of that. After dinner, Becs and Baz went to sleep while Itos and I roamed around the hotel and its surroundings.

I was so hyper and excited that I just didn't feel tired at all. It is true what people say about Vegas, it's a city that never dies and the excitement just makes you want to stay awake all night!

All in all, my first day at Vegas was great. Can't wait for tomorrow!!

I love food!!!

What can I say? I love my food. Any kind of food... The first picture was taken when I had fajitas at a Mexican restaurant called Las Palmas. I used to not like Mexican food but now I love it and can't get enough of the guacamole!! The next picture was taken at Olive Garden, an Italian restaurant. It has good food which is reasonably priced. Also, they have unlimited soup, salad, and bread sticks...Wohooo!!! My dream job would be to become a food critic. Man, imagine being paid to eat? Wow! Just thinking about it makes me so happy... Food, glorious food...

On a different note, I know that I promised to write about the Vegas trip. I will soon k... Building anticipation konon! hahhahah...

Selamat Hari Raya!!!

Selamat Hari Raya everyone. Maaf Zahir Batin. I can't believe that raya is Wednesday! This will be my second raya in the US.

I remember fondly as a child celebrating raya in Teluk Kumbar at tok wan and tok's house. It sure was a full house since all the children (my grand parents have 11 children) would be there with their kids in tow. So that was the time when I'd meet all my aunts and uncles and my cousins. The things we did as kids during raya was loads of fun. At that age our number one mission was to collect as much duit raya as we could from family as well as the neighbors. So Itos, myself and few of our cousins would 'round satu kampung' and go door to door. However, as we grew older, we became a little bit shy and would not go round making our collection. This tradition is however carried on by our younger cousins :)

The other thing that I remember about raya as a kid was the food. There would be tons and tons of food and drinks. My favourite had to be the drinks that my grandpa would order especially for hari raya. We would get Coke, F&N Fanta, 7UP etc that came in glass bottles. Man, that was so special and I loved my grandpa for that. He was so cool to get all those drinks :) And at that time, being able to drink fizzy drinks was a treat since it was only once in a blue moon that I was able to get my hands on those bad boys (mama doesn't think fizzy drinks are good for you). Also, it was like a tradition that every year I would eat and eat and eat and puke right after for eating too much! You think I'd learn. But noooo, I do it every year. But I'm happy to report that I do still eat and eat and eat now during raya but thankfully my body has learned to adjust and I am able to hold my food in! hahah..

My favourite food for raya has got to be nasi impit with rendang daging (my mum's), rendang ayam (my aunt Q), kuah kacang with perut (my cousin Kak Ina), and my own kari ayam. Yum..yum..yum.. Hari raya now as an adult involves eating, relaxing and socializing in front of the tv, eating some more, relaxing and socializing again, eating, you get where I'm going with this... ;)

Once again, Selamat Hari Raya and don't be eating too much of that rendang now...Save some for me!!!

Pictures, pictures, pictures...

As promised, here are some pictures of Vegas. I'll upload more and write about it soon. There's plenty of pictures to upload and plenty to tell. I miss Vegas already *sigh* Kaaaaaacccchinnnngggg!!

I'm back...

Hey ya'll...I just got back from Vegas about an hour ago. It was what I expected it to be and more :) Sad to leave Vegas and all the excitement but glad to be back home...I will blog more about it tomorrow and yes, lots and lots of pictures. I promise :)

I'm leaving on a jet plane...

It's about 1 am now and I need to be up by 8 am tomorrow... Now I am beginning to regret having had a Starbucks Frappucino at 7.30 pm just now...Damn...Now I am up like an owl and too alert to even fall asleep...I must, I must, I must go to sleep soon...

Itos and I and another 2 friends of ours are leaving for Vegas in approximately 13.5 hours...wohoo! Boy am I excited...So I won't be blogging till I come back on Sunday. I promise to blog about it and yes, put tons of pictures...

Need to sign off now...Taxi's coming at 11.30 am. I need to go to the bank, library, and store and I have to do all that before the taxi comes. So hence having to wake up early...

Vegas, here I come...wohooooooooooooooooooooo!

Jumping, jumping...

Perhaps some of you have noticed, perhaps some of you have not..Itos and I are now big on taking our pictures jumping. Hahahha...Some jadi, some tak... But it sure is fun when after numerous shots (camera cikai so ikut nasib lah), we actually get good shots of us jumping! wohoo!! Fun and good exercise perhaps?

Anyways, these pictures were shot 2 weeks ago at this place called Independence Grove. It was a beautiful day when we were there and we had fun feeding the fishes and ducks and gees. And what else? Jumping of course!

p.s. Maini S, not until you pointed out that this is ala2 'Leap Ahead' that I remembered the Intel video! fun times..fun times..

On my birthday..

On the first day of being 28..Here is roughly a list of what I did today:

1) 9-10.30: Drove to the college to pay the tuition fee

2) 10.30-10.45: Stopped at Walgreens (ala2 Guardian/Watson) and picked up an eyeliner

3) 11-12: Read chapter 2 of my 'Social Problems' class. Test end of this week

4) 12-6.30: Work (note to self: next year take the day off on your birthday.. Go to a spa or something and chill :) )

5) 6.30-7: Got ready to go out

6) 7.30-10: Dinner at Wild Fish with Rob :) Thank you..Dinner was fantastic...Food was great, but most importantly company was superb ;) I have had a craving for sushi for awhile, and today my wish came true..wohoo!!

7) 10.30: Internet (blogging, facebook)

Today was really good. Happy birthday self...I feel more like 18 rather than 28.. In denial perhaps? muhahhahahah..

p.s. Thank you all for the birthday wishes...You guys are the best!! xoxo

It's my birthday...

In approximately 1.5 hours, I will be 28. I am already 28 in Malaysia though :) Thank you all for the birthday wishes.. So so sweet and I feel so loved :)

It's raining again..

It has been raining non-stop today since about 11.oo am. I love the rain when I am indoors. Given a choice I would love to just curl up in my bed reading or watching a movie. Listening to the rain pouring down is kind of therapeutic. And being so comfortable, soon enough I'll doze off to sleep...So so nice..Man, I miss doing that so much. I don't remember the last time I did that.

However when I am outside it's kind of a pain *sigh* It's really cold and so wet.. But I am not complaining.. I love the rain...Love the smell of it and how fresh rain makes the surroundings look.. But it would be nice if it was only raining when I am indoors :)

Cold weather and ulat bulus...

Before I came to the States, I had a few things that worried me. At that time (February 2007) my biggest worry was whether I was going to be able to endure the freezing temperatures. The night before I flew to the States there was a massive snow storm. So I was just anxious to see how my body would handle such extreme coldness. I didn't want to go home in a kotak (box) lah! Surprisingly, I handled the winter pretty well. Yay to me.. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.. And now I am looking forward to the winter again so that I can put on my boots! Yes, I am obsessed with boots! The sad thing about it though is the fact that I won't be able to wear any of my boots when I go back to hot Malaysia *aih*

My next biggest worry was whether I was going to be able to find someone to help me maintain my eyebrows. Having been blessed with ulat bulu (caterpillar) eyebrows, I had to thread them every 2 weeks or so. In Malaysia I was lucky to have had Mrs Maninder to thread my eyebrows. So I panicked when I thought that I would not be able to find a threader in the States. However, my worries disappeared fast when I was roaming around the mall (5 minutes away from the house), I found a threader! wohoo! Boy was I happy. I found Mrs Maninder's replacement and her name is Mrs Uzma :)

My kind of food...

After spending the whole day in Chicago last Monday, Itos and I decided to go have dinner (bukak posa) at the Penang Restaurant. It is located in Chinatown (about 10-15 minutes by car) from downtown Chicago. I have been there a couple of times with my Malaysian friends and food has always been really good. So wanting to be the good tour guide, I knew that Itos would want to sample some delicious Malaysian food. She's been here approximately 3 weeks and already she misses Malaysian food. Who wouldn't right? It is the best food in the whole wide world! yum..yum.. So I was really excited to go eat there.

We took the cab from downtown instead of the 'L' (like our LRT). It would have cost us $4 if we had taken the L, but we opted for the cab that costs us $13. Oh well, we were both so tired and didn't want to walk no more.

There we ordered laksa, roti canai, and koay teow goreng. The food was excellent. The laksa was really spicy but so succulent and yummy that we finished both the noodles and the soup. I was impressed with the fact that the laksa was 'laksa basah' and not laksa from a packet. So that was a plus point. Even in Malaysia when you go to some stalls they give you laksa from a packet which I hate..So I am pretty impressed by that.. The koay teow was good too. It had shrimp, towgeh (how do I spell this..Lupa lah), and eggs. I just wished that the koay teow had kerang (cockels) in it. That would have been so delicious..Man I am craving for koay teow kerang right now... The roti canai was more like roti tisu than roti canai. Not having had roti canai for more than a year, it was pretty amazing to have roti canai again..I believe that roti canai is one of the greatest food inventions ever...Go roti canai!!

We were happy with the food and as usual I ate way too much.. *sigh* It was worth it though.. My only complain was the fact that service was very very slow. It took ages for them to take our orders. And at one point I asked for some sambal (chili paste) which never arrived till today.. haha..

Having recharged our batteries, we decided to take the L back...wohoo..That saved us a couple of bucks and we needed the exercise anyways ;)
