Since our Prime Minister announced the "1Malaysia" concept back in 2008, it has become almost a part and parcel of our lives - we see this published in the media all the time and businesses have jumped on the bandwagon to leverage on its appeal. The idealogy behind "1Malaysia" emphasizes national unity, ethnic harmony and efficient governance. The 1Malaysia concept is widely promoted everywhere and it is no wonder that One World Hotel has adopted it to give significance to its Ramadhan Buffet … [Read more...]

Causeway Bay Spicy Crab
If you are familiar with Hong Kong, you would know that Causeway Bay is one of the most densely-populated areas in Hong Kong and a major shopping district. What's interesting is that Causeway Bay (known as "Tung Lo Wan" in Cantonese) started as a fishing village and due to the typhoons which often strike the island, shelters were built at the bay to protect the inhabitants against the strong forces of nature. As time went, people actually live in the boats in these typhoon shelters (known as … [Read more...]
That Famous "Klang Thong Yuen" in Pin Chou
Not too long ago I received an invitation from a blog reader asking me to go check out some food served in Restoran Pin Chou.... somewhere in Klang. I had no idea where this place could be ... so what did I do? I turned to Google Maps. I absolutely love Google. I think Google is one of da best things to have ever been invented on planet Earth! Dang - I can find out just about anything in Google! Just like the other day when my boss asked me how to curve something in Powerpoint (having just … [Read more...]
Renovated!
It's about time I did something. Change the outfit from the old boring one to something more contemporary, eh!Blogger's new themes are pretty cool - so many combinations of templates and backgrounds! I like my greens and cyans ... restful shades that don't tax the eyes too much. The whole thing doesn't reflect food or gluttony much (no pics of food in the template) - that's intentional... coz the posts will be full of foooood!Hopefully this agrees with the majority of you out there, ya! ;-)) … [Read more...]
IR1968 @ Terrace Hock Choon
Prior to visiting this place, I have often wondered what the "IR" stood for. There had been several reviews about this restaurant and the name itself kinda piqued my interest. So when I received an invitation from FBB and Poesy Liang for a review here, I took it upon myself to research it a bit. As it turned out, "IR" simply stands for "Indonesian Restaurant" and the 1968 is the year it was established, in Hong Kong. With 2 outlets in Hongkong, they have been serving authentic Indonesian fare … [Read more...]

pla dib @ The Heritage Village
pla dib. What do you make of that name? Can't fault you if something Thai popped into your mind. It is Thai for "raw fish" and the original restaurant was set up in Bangkok. However, pla dib doesn't exactly serve Thai cuisine - based on their philosophy of "freedom of food", its menu features a variety of Asian fusion items... namely marriages of Thai, Japanese and European cuisines. Besides KL, the other Asian city where you can find pla dib is Singapore.pla dib is located at The Heritage … [Read more...]
Giovino @ Changkat Bukit Bintang
Changkat Bukit Bintang. A popular and "happening" upmarket dining & clubbing area in downtown Kuala Lumpur. Countless hip and trendy restaurants, pubs and clubs line this never-ending street a busy hub for both visitors and locals. To be honest, I have not checked this place for some time. So, one evening, braving the usual after-work horrendous jams from Petaling Jaya, I had the pleasure of Marian Eu's company in the car while we made our way to Changkat Bukit Bintang (CBB)... to … [Read more...]
