Celebrities at Popular Book Fair 2009 – KLCC Convention

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

I was caught  in surprise when i walked into KLCC convention entrance yesterday, 2 men dressed in laboratory suit or doctor’s white coat held a infrared scanner to check the body temperature of people who attend this book fair. After that, they paste a pink round sticker on our clothes to indicate that we are not having fever or infected with this H1n1 virus. Lucky i was not having fever or else have to send to hospital to quarantine.

Restaurant Zhing Kong or Starlight hotel @ Petaling Street

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

Went to this Popular Book Fair at KLCC Convention yesterday. I had this Lo Mai Kai for my breakfast with Big pau (Tai Pau) and a cup of hot milo. I’ve been to this restaurant a year ago and it’s still my favourite place when i feel like eating Lo Mai Kai.

I swear this is the Best Lo Mai Kai or glutinious rice that i have tasted so far. I have been to different places and tasted their Lo Mai Kai but this Zhing Kong restaurant situated at the corner shop lot near to the Petaling Street and right opposite Pasar Seni LRT train station simply captured my taste bud!. The glutinious rice texture is soft and sticky and wet (stickiness with sauce) with chicken meat and it’s not dry compare with others. Really, this is the best, if you ever come across better than this, you’ve got to let me know!, coz i am a BIG FAN of Lo Mai Kai

15Malaysia

Friday, August 28th, 2009

15Malaysia short film is very popular in Malaysia. When comes to this type of meaningful short film reminds me of our late Yasmin Ahmad. Our mix culture and racial is combined altogether giving Malaysian a message of 1Malaysia (a slogan meant to promote unity and mutual respect and trust among the different ethnic communities in Malaysia )

15Malaysia is a short film project. It consists of 15 short films made by 15 Malaysian filmmakers. These films not only deal with socio-political issues in Malaysia, they also feature some of the best-known faces in the country, including actors, musicians and top political leaders.

Personally, after watching those short films video, I find that it’s too hard for me to understand the meaning behind the stories, especially “Chocolate”

My Batu Tumbuk or Mortar and Pestle

Friday, August 28th, 2009

mortarnpestle

For centuries, spices have been used by our great grandparents till this ages where people are plain lazy to make their own spices and they head to the nearest convenience store to purchase chicken stocks, maggi stocks, fish stocks, what else. They don’t need any MSG or the so called non-MSG to add flavor in their dish because I found out that the best way to bring out the spice flavor into any dish is by pounding with mortar and pestle.

Batu Tumbuk or in English is called (Granite) Mortar and Pestle. Indestructible, will not chip or crack no matter how hard you pound. Plus it received top endorsement from celebrity chef David Rosengarten.

After watching the Singaporean drama series “The Little Nyonya” i find myself attracted to their recipes and preparation of ingredients by grounding spices for better flavor.

Here’s the link to Nyonya Recipe which i find in the net.
