Gary and G-ja Family Day at Bagan lalang!!

Ever since Gary and G-Jar "GG" planning for the arrival of their prince , i was sooo excited !!! First time someone close , and i mean like "close" to me is expecting a baby... hehehe I was like yeah !!! Finally can play and babysit him. So when baby Ariean Indra Putra " Ean" was born , i was ecstatic!!! From then one every time we meet up i surely nak hold and cuddle with him.. hahaa .. 

One find weekend, GG invited me and hubs for the weekend away, just saying that they booked a apartment and we just lepak tepi laut . Only a day before or a few hours before only we were informed that it was actually a family day/gathering of G-jar's family. Hahaha ... Truthfully malu gak nak join but since both GG said its ok, we just ikut jer la. At least i can babysit Ean while , GG have time for their family gathering .. hehehe .

Bagan Lalang from our house only takes about 45min-1hour drive. The moment i hop onto GG's car i quickly wanna hold baby Ean.. and He slept the whole way through.. hehehe . When we reached the apartment, GG needed to go down to the beach camp-site where the gathering was being held to set up a few stuff. So hubs and me volunteered to babysit Ean. But the moment GG went out to the beach side and left us alone with the baby, hubs went to sleep. Hahaha, so much for "US" taking care of the baby.. lolz, end up "Im" the one taking care, feeding and putting the baby to sleep. 
After babysitting baby E'an for a few hours , we joined the others later on in the evening. They were all setting up the barbeque pit and the grill stations. It took us all hard work to get the fire started . So, we were all excited when we got it going. Thanks to GG's friends/family that is a frequent camper, as they knew what to do and how to do it . While some was getting the fire started, me being a camera hogger. I went around to snap pictures of everyone here and there . The most tak malu thing was most of them, i dont even know and have never met . But alhamdulillah, GG's family and friends are all very friendly and made me and hubs felt at ease with everyone . 
What was on the menu u say ?? There were cockles, stingrays, prawns, chicken, sausages and even grilled corn. Since the getaway was sprung on me and hubs at the last minute we felt bad that we didn't bring anything. But thank god everyone was nice enough to share ...=).. Next time Hubs and me promise to bring our share of the food stuffs. But since we didn't bring anything, hubs volunteered to help in the preparations of the seafood's. 
Hehehe, too many chefs spoils the dish heheheh, so while hubs help G-Jar's sister with the prep of the seafood's . hehehe ,  G-Jar, Me and Gary busy helping on other preps and also disturbing baby E'an. 
While hubs and G-Jar's sister preping the seafood's  G-Jar's Friends and other family members started the fire and made sure to keep it going. But since ppl were getting hungry they grilled the cockles and corn first since it was the easiest and fastest to cook. 
 While cockles , corn and some other seafood are just started being grilled. I 'kidnapped' baby Ean and took some time enjoying the sea breeze and even took photos of US by the beach area. hahaa , um .. Being around baby Ean sometimes does make me wonder how me and hubs will be when we have kids of our own. hehehe , For now , because of financial matters , we can just pinjam baby Ean and keep on wondering until we have one of our own.. hehehe .. 
hehehe .. a moment with the adorable baby Ean..!! Um.. Mama  D and Uncle Tito loves u baby boy !!!
Gary , G-Jar and Baby Ean ... A very lovely family ..!!! <3 you guys!!
hehehe... a dusk moment with baby Ean..!!
While, we were buys taking loads of pictures. The others have started grilling the prawns, stingrays, chicken and potatoes.. SInce we came a bit later then others, while they all went to freshen up and taking baths. GG, me and hubs took over the grilling stations...=). By the time they came back we all devoured the food , hahah , because we were by the beach and i took loads of random pictures my battery ran low and that i didnt take any night pictures and of everyone devouring the food .. hahaa .. But honestly kudos to the chefs and marinator's ( GG friends and families)... the food was awesome delicious !!! The more hubs and me ate, we felt bad for not bringing anything, and we promise our selves next time we will make sure to bring some supplies and food stuff too..=).
After dinner , we all just laze around the fire and just hang out with GG's family and friends. And nearing 11plus i think , we all headed back to the apartment/hotel that GG booked for the night. Since , we went prepared for anything. We didnt know that everyone else was camping out for the night. That would be interesting though. But lolz, my husband being a "POLAR BEAR" hahaha , he cant stand the heat much, i dont think he will enjoy it much.. Lolz, We said our goodnights and retired to the hotel to sleep. The day had been awesome that it didnt take long for us to fall into a deep sleep..=).

The Next morning, GG woke up very early and met the family and friends at the beach. Since it was sooo hard for me and hubs to get a holiday, we kinda slept in a bit ... =). After breakfast, we drove to the beach side where they camped and they were all playing monopoly deal. But i was mainly distracted by the giant eagle kite that GG's brother in law bought.. It was cool... At the beach i even saw a pirate ship kite that was soo cool, especially the way it glided in the air !!!



G-Jar's dad was so cool, he spoilt the kids with bubble guns, mini kites and a whole load of toys ..=). 
Soon, it was afternoon and everyone started to packed. hehehe , it was such a fun and awesome weekend. That truthfully i didnt want it to end . But it being a weekend we had to work the next day , it was a bum to end it .. But hubs and me got to meet awesome friends and family of Gary and G-Jar...=). And the most that i liked was being able to hug, hold and kiss baby Ean all my heart desired ,, hehehe .. lolz.

Till our next outing Gary and G-Jar ..!!
heeheheh, one of these days i SERIOUSLY nak pinjam baby Ean  for the weekend.!!
Heheheh .. Muahss,

Cheers everyone!!!

Korean delight @Gangnam Station Shah Alam

We'll if you guys have read my previous blog entry, you would know by now that i am slowly getting korean crrrraazzzyyyy..... So, when my Sistere in law told me that there was a new korean restaurant opened nearby her old tuition centre, we just had to go try it out . So far the day went awesome .. hahaha ... We played a game of old school carom , went for about 4 hours of karaoke and then straight to dinner .
 Since BOTH my Sister-in-law (SIL)Nora Jane and I both are korean crazyy.. hahah .. My friend Wawa and her was the one who influence me in my journey into korean-ism. So, we were watching our korean shows/drama, we said there was a new korean restaurant that opened nearby their house so during our karaoke session it was already decided that there was where we will be having dinner . After the tiring 4hours (actually i could still go on ) ... We made our way to the gangnam station.
Upon reaching , we realize that it used to be a mexican restaurant before it was changed to a korean restaurant . The menu is very limited and the dishes are all sharing sizes and prices are what i would say quite steep . If you were to divide it to the amount of ppl who is sharing, its is actually quite affordable but for me the downside is that you cant try different types of dishes at one go. Since even the basic bibimbap was still unavailable (at the time that i went) , we choose the safest menu item bulgogi set. 

Bulgogi set was served with the following ,
a) Bulgogi set - a huge portion of beef,clear noodle ,mushroom and vege enough to share 3-4 people depending on appetite..=) (Rm60 perportion)
b) All meals are served with an all-you-can-eat side dishes which may vary from day to day but the staple kimchi is of course served. Thou if u asked me the kimchi was too mild ..
c) Rice has to be ordered separately and each bowl is charged . (Rm3 per bowl)
d) All drinks are priced um slightly expensive for my taste even plain water was charged at rm1 per glass.
The array of side dishes that was served when we came. It will change form day to day.. =)
The bowl of rice is expensive but i gotta say it did taste good..
Just look at the huge pile of beef, mushroom and jap chae.. Yummy yum yum!!
My sister in law Nora Jane look how huge it is in front of her ..=)
Close up of the bulgogi..=)
After we put the vege and waiting for it to start  cooking and boiling..
Basically we could pretty much say we were quite satisfied with the portion of the meal is just that if they could offer a choice to get a smaller portions at least we could have ordered and tried several items on the menu at a go ..=).. But other than that i would say the place is quite ok and the taste was not too bad .. But my choice would still be The Street Cafe ..So i guess thats my view on this new restaurant . A last comment , if they could make the place look and feel a bit more kerean would be awesome . Like mayb some decorations and nick-nacks that would make ppl be interested in korean culture more. Buzz Korea!!!

Cheers and till my next entry ..!!

Interested in trying this place out ??

Dim Sum Buffet at Holiday Villa , Subang

Ever since mid of last year i had been craaavviing for Dim Sum. Its kinda hard to get halal dim sum, either its too expensive or not much variety . Well, i was again proved wrong by getting an online voucher that was soooo worth it .... Hahahaa , I have hear and seen on facebook that a lot of people went and enjoyed Dim sum at Holiday Villa Hotel and Suites Subang, however after finding out the prices i just had to "telan air liur" . Hahaha ... Thats was when i found the online voucher it was too die for !!!!

So, on one fine Sunday, i invited my aunt, my bro  and hubs to go . But since my aunt had last minute plans i invited my brother's gf instead . Lolz, we were spoilt with choices , I assume its just an all-you-can-eat Dim sum only. Guess all of us was pretty surprised that they even had  buffet line up of desserts, salad bar, fried stuffs, noodle station and a few other food stations.. hahaha .. However my main delight was the Dim sum  so we truly indulge in those .. hahaha 
Normal price : Rm58.00
Online voucher that i bought : Rm29.00
THERE WERE JUST SOOO MANY 
TO CHOOSE FROM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The variety of desserts were also a lot.. sweet, savoury and even hot and cold ..
Dessert heaven indeed!!
Since the buffet started from 11am till 2.30pm. We were all there by 1130am and left about 1.30 pm. 2hours we awesome!! hahaha ... I would say i truly and honestly enjoyed the brunch !!! I finally satisfied my craving's for Dim sum. 
What's more awesome than enjoying delicious meal with family ... 
IT was definitely a voucher worth spent ... 
If there were any more promo for this .. '
Ill definitely get some and enjoy it again..!!!
Till my next foodie moment !!
Toodles~~!!
