Japanese dining @Nagomi Sushi Bar & Shabu Shabu @ Bukit Bintang

On our visit to Japanese Dining @Nagomi (Menara Hap Seng) we found that this restaurant serves Premium Japanese Cuisine, with awesome dining experience & environment. When we first stepped in we were greeted by all the staff with some japanese greeting, felt special! Staffs are very attentive & getting you seated in matter of seconds, so no waiting needed.

We took atleast 15mins to decide on the menu as the Menu is like a huge art book. Hahah, they got too many on the menu. We often forget what we see on the 1st page when browsing thru the 3rd page!

As if we was in famine, we straight away ordered the main course! Banana Leaf Vegetarian.

The basic vegetarian serving

Those are the veg dish, basically some green leaves veg, cucumber with yogurt, tomato chutney and stir fried potato with spices. Realizing we were not herbivorous, we went ahead for some extras.

Xtras like chicken varuval , fish, & yogurt, and dont forget the pickle

After all this whacked thru, we wanted to have something mild to balance out the outrageous spiciness of the chicken. so we had Vadai soaked in yogurt (Thairu vadai) *Translation might sound weird lol.

Weng Yin Seafood Restaurant Port Dickson

On our weekend @Thistle. We decided to go on seafood hunt, and found this Restaurant called WENG YIN, supposedly its a Muslim Seafood, but they serve beer & No Pork. How HALAL was that ? I dont know lah .haha. We came pretty early and found only 2 or 3 table's occupied. We was abit sceptical though, but after 8pm, the place was full packed. People will have to wait for table, pity them lol.

Here is what we order, and we were just 2 person. So my list of food came short, we definitely cannot finish lehh.

The FREE kacang appetizer(We never bother to eat, waiting for the main dish)

Butter Crab (Very Creamy & Filling) lots of crab meat

The butter crab was tasty, but got MOQ lah, Min 2Crab /Order. RM13each

3-Flavored Deep Fried Fish

Fish was very crunchy & nice. Dont mind the half potion gone.we was too excited and went eating not realising photos not taken yet. lol.

 

 

Claypot Beancurd with mushroom & vege

 

 

Stir-Fried Sweet Potato Leaves with Belacan

The total package, which was too much for 2 person

For just 2 person, this is just too much. Added that the 2 Crab is eaten only by my Gf as im not into crabs. They even give you nutcracker tool to break open it up haha,

Weekend @Thistle, Port Dickson

After long days working without rest. We decided on a weekend gateway @Thistle Port Dickson as it is the nearest beach for us from KL. We moved from Seremban @12.30pm, reached at Thistle earlier than supposed check-in time. Yet it wasnt too bad, as we went around for a walk. On the first sight, lobby was huge open air with modern design.

The Lobby, open wide 4 Receps & Open air

This is the lobby of thistle, it has adequate space to fit large crowds, and it is just beside steps cafe. But Check in was a bit slow due to only 4 receptions available. but they do provide early check in with no cost. we got our keys at 2.30pm

The room//Garden View, King Bed

The toilet amenities, Basic stuff

The balcony with relaxing garden view

The room is Good, we choosed the garden view rooms, it has all necessary amenities with a mini fridge & coffee making facilities.

The main pool, with Pool bar Depth 1.4m-2.5m

Some seating  @Main pool

View of the overlooking sea from 5th floor, my Room

The pool & Facilities was awesome. We spend alot of our time in the pool here, its clean , large with free towel services available.

The Cumulus bar, For adults only.

Small huts for chill-out , Very quite & peaceful

This is why they call this pool as infinity pool, You got it?

Finally, we found this resort is very suitable for people looking for relaxation & romantic gateway. We will definitely come back again.

My Malacca Trip JUN 2010

When once we thought visiting a Historical Place.Malacca came up to mind. For the rich & Diversified culture we were little curios about the places there. we did heard that the food is good in Malacca, but how far its true, i dont know lah! I started from KL, due to my girlfriend living in Seremban i will have to drop by to bring her along.

Our first stop was the crocodile farm @Ayer Keroh. It was nice to be looking at a crocodile when u havent seen any for any reason living in a concrete jungle. But after sometime, i was left so bored just looking at the crocs.

They were not really posing, just sleeping with wide open mouth, tats all...lol

The ayer keroh Crocodile farm is very near to Bee Farm & Butterfly park. You might want to visit Bee Farm because its free! You will also get a chance to try FREE bee honey! We drank like 6-8cups of honey and bought 1 bottle ;) Chepos lol.

Well , We all know that Malacca is famous for the stadhuys, Christ Church & the a'famosa. So let me share with you guys what you might not know ;)

If you dont know, every sunday morning there will be a Morning market selling Antiques like coins, currency notes, records and anything which is old enough to be considered as old. Some of them looked very old up to 100years. Most of the people selling on the street here are either antique collectors or antique shop owners.

We stayed at HallMark hotel which is very near to Jonker street, well its just walking distance only. I found this low cost hotel from the Tripadvisor.com and Guess what it was good, cosy & cheap. For travellers with tight budget like me, this would be the best.

This is the Portugese settlement view at night.

 Be sure to visit Joe's stall to try his mango. A must eat item is dabel curry , hot & spicy curry with creamy gravy.
