Gurney Drive in The Gardens

Gurney Drive has duplicated its entry in the city centre of Kuala Lumpur. After hearing so many good words from the my fellow blogger friends, we have made our very first date after our sweet heart was born.

We were a bit surprise to find that it was actually located at the 3^rd floor where there was no other neighbouring food outlet and it does not resemble Gurney Drive in Penang at all. Guess the name Gurney Drive is only to indicate the food origins.

The ambience was quite relax anyway. Not crowded with people and the decoration was very oriental with a row of bamboo plants at the side and a old-time bicycle at the front door.

We order a plate of Char Keow Teoy, A plate of Lo Bak and hubby ordered his all time favourite Air kacang and I ordered a cup of local hainanese coffee.( By the way the cup of kopi was way too big until it looks more like a bowl of coffee.)

The Char Keow Teoy was really tasty, it was served piping hot and the Lo Bak was ok only. Hubby did not comment about the air kacang, but I find it too sweet for me.

We were given a complimentary dessert of local delight after our meal..

Overall we are quite satisfied with the food and the service and yes, we will come again, soon !

Dessert @ Vivo City

After a long journey to Singapore, we finally settled down and managed to spend some time at Vivo City. At least something new apart from Orchard Road. We went to this dessert shop which sells Hong Kong style dessert and made 3 orders, one "Ice Kacang", one "Tong Sui" and a "Chu Cheong Fun".
All three tasted great. Love the "Chu Cheong Fun" most for the sauce is quite special, it was a mix of peanut sauce and sweet sauce.
The "ice kacang" is a bit unique in the sense that it is not so sweet. Although it resembled the ice kacang in Malaysia, it does not add in any evaporated milk, it was coconut milk instead.

Thai Restaurant @ Suntec City

As I mentioned before, Thai cuisine is my all time favourite. Since I have been craving for Tom Yam for so long, we decided to go for Thai food.
Located on the top floor, we were attracted by the name "Tuk-tuk". Tuk-tuk is one of the vehicle in Thailand which is like a taxi but looks more like a motorbike. Because of the heavy traffic in Thailand, this type of taxi will bring you to your destination faster.
We ordered our favourite dishes : Pineapple fried rice, Tom Yam, Pandan Chicken and Fried Kailan. All the dishes are so yummy especially the pineapple fired rice. A bit disappointed with the Tom Yam, it was too hot until it burned my lips. All are authentic Thai food. Overall the service is good and minus the Tom Yam, I will rate this restaurant a good one and yes we will come again next time.

Malaysia - Pangkor Laut

Situated in the middle of west Malaysia, this is an isolated island in Perak and is a YTL project which is very well managed. Both me and my husband had a great stay at Pangkor Laut Resort. If you looking for a holiday getaway from the city life. This is the place for you and your loved ones !

A long bridge to Jetty and the Water Chalet

Sembawang Park

We went to Sembawang Park yesterday. It is not a huge park but quite a good place for family outing. Lots of camping and barbeque sites and I love the greeneries there. Plenty of trees which you will never get sun burnt while enjoying the sea views.

Shopping in Singapore

This time round, my shopping experience in Singapore is getting more and more adventurous. Unlike the past, I only shopped along Orchard Road, as though there is no other places to shop in Singapore.
After a few trips to Singapore and staying here for more than 1 month, I made a conclusion. If you want to shop like a local, Orchard Road should be the last in your list. I always find Orchard Road is a place for Channel, Gucci ... and all other branded stuff which you may only want to buy one or two items in your life time.
If you want some casual shopping, Junction 8 at Bugis Junction is a better choice. There are quite a number of local boutiques which sells better designs which is more unique to Singaporean taste and yet fashionable.
What impressed me more is the Food Junction at Junction 8. The ambiance there is very good for friends gathering and they have a great variety of food.
Think of going there this weekend. Will post some pics if i make it !

East Coast Park

This is my second trip to East Coast Park in Singapore ! The first time I went there is to attend a casual dinner at No Brand Seafood Restaurant. This time round, we went there for a walk at the seaside.
It was relaxing and I like the place. Simply because it is clean and there are plenty of trees there which you would not get sun burnt. And if you have kids, you may want to bring them to a new attraction called Big Splash !

Did not manage to take much pics as I did not bring along my camera. Just took a few shots with my phone. Look forward to the next trip to East Coast Park !
