As I have been brought up in a Cantonese family, Chee Cheong Fun, 猪肠粉, is one of my favorite food. Recently, there is a shop newly opened in Gala City Kuching, called 潮汕肠粉. We decided to give it a try. The Menu The Menu There was a small pot filling with the paste which looks like the mixture of chili and bean paste on the table. Chili Bean Paste Looking at the picture in the menu, it is different with Hong Kong style Cheong Fun. We ordered Singature Cheong Fun, Cheong Fan with "Special" Char Siew (BBQ pork), and Mushroom Siow Mai.  Signature Cheong Fun Cheong Fun with Char Siew Mushroom Siow Bee Both Cheong Fun's ingredients (Long Cabbage, Egg, Mushroom, Minced meat) is basically the same, except that there is char siew added for one of it. The Cheong Fun skin is quite thick and the portion is quite big. Personally, I still prefer Hong Kong style cheong fun, which is having thinner skin in roll and topped with thick sweet sauce :)

It always fun to drop by post office out of the blue to just check out what is the first day cover or new stamp series they are offering. I'm not really a stamp collector, but I like to collect things which I like and having special meaning. As me and my mom were touring around Plaza Merdeka and Carpenter Street, I felt a sudden urge to go inside Pejabat Pos Besar and have a look. To my surprise, they were selling Batman series and Marvel series folder set as both were in 80th year anniversary. For Batman series, they were selling the folder set for RM120.00. The folder Folder unfolded 3 envelopes with stamped stamps. Post cards The stamp sheet The stamp sheet Add on another RM10 for the miniature stamps (a postcard and 3 stamps). The envelop of the miniature set. The postcard Inside of the card The stamps for the miniature set.

Having a nice dinner here with Pei Pei, the food is nice, but may need to hire more stuff to handle the crowd. Beef Noodle RM12.90 Pork Burger  Vietnamese dripping coffee They are doing the set promotion. I order Pork Burger + dripping coffe (RM12.90). I like the burger, with different vege inside, especially the coriander.  The shop is off every Tuesday.

I was attending Digital Forensics for First Responder training at CyberSecurity at Mines area, so I had a chance to stay vat Palace of Golden Horses hotel. My friends told me that it is a famous and quite high class hotel. When I checked in the room, the interior deco was good and I would say luxurious, however, the maintenance of the room seemed like long time ago. Here they have free shuttle bus service to klcc and mines shopping mall, the time table can be acquired from the counter. They are having the water taxi service as well, from the hotel to mines wellness hotel, one way costs RM8, for every half an hour. Is a short walking distance from the mines wellness hotel to mines shopping fair. They have good scenery and free shuttle bus service. The price considers reasonable. Next time I might wanna try stay at mines wellness hotel. The scenery there looks nice too.

Share Finally McD drive thru is here! It is located near the Tabuan Giant, and is nearer to Kota Samarahan as well :) excited for this McD drive thru as I no need to go all the way to 3rd mile or town McD.

Due to the part time job as RA I'm working on, I went to Daro with another friend to test her system with the Melanau community there. Early morning, took 7am Mas Wing to Sibu, from the Sibu airport took cab to Sibu wharf. Around 8am, we left the airport, thought that we were in time to catch the 9am boat. We were told that the boat for the trip to Daro was only available at 1130am after the 8am trip. Having no other option, we walked to the hawker center above a wet market and found a place to sit down and have our breakfast. We were told that there were two kinds of boat to travel by rivers. One is express boat, another is speed boat. Express boat is a bigger boat compared to speed boat, but slower than speed boat. From Sibu to Daro, it needed 2 hours and 30 minutes by using express boat, 1 hour over by using speed boat. It was my first experience using boat to travel to other place. A different experience for me, and thought that i might get dizzy by sitting inside the boat, i
