Ysquare Photoblog 26: The most quantity Birthday Cake.

It was hubby's birthday last month. Called up some classmate to celebrate her birthday.

Hahah.. of course, she is 18 no more, don't be fool by the cakes...

Do you know what cakes are they?

Cupcakes?

Nope!

Sushi?

Nope!

Puff?

Nope!

Pastry?

Nope!

It's donuts! ^_^




P/S: Hubby just came out from the hospital yesterday. She was having high fever the day before deary came to Melaka. I'm more relief when she is staying with her family to take care of her.

Multi-layered Tokyo Fruit Tarts is now in Karafuru Tokyo Street, Pavilion K.L!

They said money is man's best friend, Chocolate is a girl's best friend. Me? Dessert of course!

I tried various of desserts ranging from ice-creams, cakes, sorbets, crepe, chocolate, fruits, puff etc. So when I know there is a new fruit tart shop open in town, 2 days a go which is 21th Dec 2011,  I was getting so excited. Too bad, I am out of town, else I might gained 3 kgs due to the food indulgence I have there~ LOL

This new fruit tart shop is called Karafuru, which is the pronunciation of "colorful" in Japanese.

A lil fact on the new shop:
Address : Tokyo Street, Pavillion Kuala Lumpur.
Contact no : 03-2143 5737 (Outlet) or 012 312 3971 ( Shea Leen )
Email : hello@karafurutarts.com

The flavor includes:

o Strawberry Chocolate

o Mango

o Grape

o Oreo

o Green Tea Red Bean

o Raspberry Peach

That is such an enjoyment by just looking at the attractive tarts

Mind you that these handmade tarts are perfected by chefts from Japan, using only fresh ingredient, ranging from the custard/choco filling, cream, fruit puree etc.

You will be surprise by the tart once you try it yourself.

Bad for me but good for you than when you like Karafuru Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/karafuru.tarts , you will get a 30% discount voucher on the whole or sliced tart.

Although they promised to treat me some tarts but

My Penang diary 11: Berlin's Bier Houz

Berlin's Bier Houz in Straits Quay.
Do you remember I introduce Straits Quay before?


Just a recap:

Straits Quay is a beautiful vibrant place at day.



At night, it turn to be a mysterious hang out place by the sea, where you can see people chilling, drink, strolling with the company of salty winds.

I would wanna sit out side the bar for a nice, windy sea breeze, but it was full. So, we have no choice but to sit in the bar. It was not too bad, but I still prefer the sea-side scenery.

Probably due to 2 major event in Penang on the earlier of the evening, Straits Quay was packed, so is Berlin Bier Houz.

We share the liquor. Since I am not very good alcohol resistance, so I ordered half pint of cider.
I am very sorry that I forgot the name, but I have to say that the apple cider taste sour sweet with a bitter after taste. Not really how I like my cider would be, but the taste is still very complimented.

As for the guys, they ordered half pint of Franziskaner Weissbier (also known as white beer or wheat beer)
It does not have so much of malt taste like your usual Carlsberg. Surprisingly, it has very smooth after taste which I love.

I was driving a lone from Kulim that night and I wouldn't want to risk my life by drinking too much, so I had some snack with the cider. I ordered meat balls. Very well marinated and chewy (tendons). Probably because I was hungry too ^__^


So, this post indicated my last post of My Penang diary at the moment. So far, I have no solid plan to go back Penang in the near future for career development, but for vacations, I think I can go back Penang once in a while since I really like this place a lot.


Next will be another historical city travel diary. Are you excited? Me too XD

Ysquare Photoblog 25: What is This On My Arm?

Hey, whats this?

Nah... I am not trying to kill myself.

I am a strong girl, but strong girl is usually the one who got hurt the most. If I don't wanna get hurt, I have to pretend to be a timid, cute, slutty girl.

You know what my decision is, don't ya ;)

My Penang Diary 9: New World Park Hawker Center, Penang

Coutesy to Isaac Tan to bring me to tour around his home town, Penang Island during my internship period in Kulim. Glade that Ivan, Isaac's brother and Henry aka Clevermunkey join us that day in New World Park

Xi Bei Pai, The Melakan (Malaccan) Vegetarian Steamboat food review

If you are not my classmate, you probably don't know that I am a vegetarian back in Melaka. Althought I do lots of food review which more of 'em are non vegan food or some are even non halal.


Most of you that come to Melaka are for the food. Top of the list would be Satay celup. One of the famous satay celup located in Jalan Ong Kim.
Most of the time, we don't travel alone, but how if someone in our travel group is vegetarian? That would be some awkward~


However, finding a vegeterian shop in Melaka is not hard, even if are not a full time pure vegetarian, Malaccan(Melakan) have habits to dine in Vegetarian restaurant once in a while.


So, now I am introducing a new restaurant, probably not the best the Melaka but provide convenient vegetarian meal to tourist.

Hennessy Artistry 2011, MIECC

Cheers to the largest Hennessy Artistry on 2011 in Malaysia! Woohoo~
This event is pretty celebrate-able, except it was 2 weeks ago ^__^||||
I am admire by my own blogging speed.

My Penang Diary 10: Ichiban Ramen Aeon Seberang Prai City Shopping Center

 
I visited this Ramen shop when I was still doing my internship in Northen Malaysia. 
I still remember I had a meeting on the Penang Island in the afternoon and have to drive back to the mainland to this mall after work then stuck in a massive jam just to attend a movie gathering with my housemates.
One of the reason I didn't blog about this shop ASAP is because I don't really like the food here except their gyoza.

Tenshi no Cafe (天使の喫茶) Food Review

Like I mention in my teaser post, thanks to Ivy and Tenshi no Cafe for inviting me for a Selangorlicious Foodster Trip last Tuesday(8th Nov 2011) in their shop in e@curve.

P/s: Tenshi in Japanese means angel, hence the logo.

Tower Heist Movie Review

Suppose to Watch it last Sunday in Melaka with deary but Sisi got jealous and did odds on us. So I have to postpone the plan and left her in Melaka to calm her down and let the mechanic have her fix LOL.

My Happiest Moment

Do you ever had a happy moment that is so memorable that you feel like you want to seal and preserve it in the fridge but you just missed that split second?
why could I possibly know?
Coz I face this dilemma ALL THE TIME!


Beeing a girl isn't easy, we have to groom ourselves, dress nicely, talk politely, carry ourself gracefully in any kind of occasion and the list go on and on.... And for our bag, it probably stuffed with 50 pairs of fake lashes in case of emergency, not to mention that 97344326 different colors lip tics and 43598234 colors eye shadow that should be all bring out during EVERY occasion.


Well, I may have exaggerated on the last 2 lines but which girl is willing to carry a dumb bell like DSLR every where? The most is that girls bring along their compact camera that give them shitty kind of pictures especially under low light condition which is super noisy >.< ( I mean image noise, I am no photo noob =.=) so that they don't over stuff their bag and later hurt their arm and shoulder due to carrying it?


The definition of happy photography should be a carefree, pressure-less experience where only a click of the shutter that *puff* a picture is taken. I am not degrading or discriminating girls can't take photo well. In fact, I know a few girls that can take very nice photo (and you are looking at one of their blog now XP). They are great in controlling, name it shutter speed, ISO, aperture, lightning, manual focus etc, But the questions is, how many of us can really manage to tweak the setting on the camera before the split second gone?


That's is why M 4/3 is so popular recently. This mirror-less camera may not have the exact out come like DSLR, but it is far better than compact result with just a compact size and weight of camera.


So, my happiest moment would be a carefree time spend with friends and being myself, or just being plan stupid for a laughter that will mark as memory when we grow older. When the camera is taken out, only a few button is need to mark the moment instead of waiting for the photographer to tweak the setting and everybody post for it.

That would be my happiest moment with my happy photography experience.

How about yours?

Nadeje, Perks of Studying in Melaka.

Haven't posted some quality photo in a while.

Just wanna make you drool.

Actually I am doing so just to comfort myself that I am not #forever alone in Melaka T~T

My Nuffnang Story

Hey, how ya doing? ^__^ I can't stop a grin on my face when every time I talk about Nuffnang.
I don't exactly remember when did I joined Nuffnang, but it is definitely a long way during these 2-3 years time. I first found out Nuffnang on some famous blogger's blog advertisement section. I was already blogging that time but I was "humble" enough to think that I am not eligible to join since I have so little visitors and I was only blogging about private stuff. So I share it to my closer friends that have higher visit, maybe they can earn some pennies from there.Later, the friend pulls me in to Nuffnang too, explaining the benefit to me. My 1st event/competition/ticket I won from Nuffnang was a pair of Urbanscape passes, and later more to come.


I didn't expect Nuffnang is not only a advertising company but also a community that gathers bloggers for fun activities such movie screening, outing, event, launching food sharing etc etc....Well, I can't deny that most bloggers that join Nuffnang for the penny (caching on the end of every month yo!). I don't judge yourguys on that but Nuffnang is so much more than just money. It's a community that bring you friends, opportunity, knowledge, fun, excitement, prices and food~~~~


No point to just keep lecturing or preaching, let me show (more like show off) you how my Nuffnang journey was so far.

Recently, before my semester starts, I attending some food related event (LOL Imma food blogger, food always comes 1st, unless I finally decided to diet which fails 193484 times already). One of my favorite would be the Digi Buka Puasa event by Digi and Nuffnang at The Bee, Jaya One.

Not only we are served with yummylicious foods and treats(say YAY to desserts!)

My Penang Diary 8: Penang Traditional Cendol at Lebuh Keng Kwee

I always thought only Melaka has the best Cendol but I think many people will deny. I know Melaka and Singapore has Peranakan but I didn't Penang has it too!


During my intership in Kulim, I travel to Penang very frequently. The main reason of course it's because of my job. The 2nd reason is the food + hang out with friends ^.^

My Penang Diary 5: Straits Quay

I once said/tweet: If I have to recommend some place in Penang, it must be Straits Quay." Oh God, I missed this place a lot! I have visited Starits Quay for a few time and each time gives me different memory.

Entrance of Straits Quay Mall

DiGi Presents the HTC Sensation [HTC Sensation Review]

Ysquare Photoblog 24: So whos' more stupid now, Siri or Sam?

I know I have not update my blog very frequently , either here or dygadget..

I have so many thing to share yet I am bond by my studies and extreme expectation from my final year project's supervisor.

But I do know how to entertain myself. Siri has been a viral discussion among tech geeks like us, but who knows, my Android phone has such a similar stupid assistance as well.

Hint: Go to Android market and search speaktoit.

Ysquare Photoblog 23: Library in the car aka The Moving Library

Thanks to the complexity of my Final Year Project, I have to do a lot of research. however, Library isn't open 24 hours, so I have to bring back ALL the related reference home~

~_~ Soooo many books. God bless me >.<

Ysquare Photoblog 22: I Missed Penang already~

This is one my my dinner I had in Penang Island when I was having my internship there 3 months ago. The Set consist of Dory fish, Mash potato, spaghetti and salad. If I am not mistaken, it was only RM6.90. Although the fish isn't awesome, but RM6.90! You could never get this set in spaghetti set in any other placecs!

Fry Chicken Nuggets. RM10 for 8 Chicken Nuggets chunks + Chili sause.

Wasn't too good as well, but I can never find such cheap but decent food around K.L or Melaka already.

Penang is emerging to be one of the high living standard town in Malaysia due to fast development. However, Penang still remains warm, hospitallity and humanity in their culture. If K.L don't want me after I grad, I think Penang is another very good starting point =)

It's a public secret that every Snoopy's fan in Malaysia know there is a Charlie Brown Cafe in Penang. But how much of you (the fans) has went there before? ^.^

Located on 2nd floor or Straits Quay, it's not hard to spot such an out-standing restaurant like this.

My Penang Diary 6: Hard Rock Hotel

Then you will never expect I took this photo during my Penang Island trip 2 months back.

Happy Birthday To My Besties Buddy - Jackieloi

The lil boy Jackie Loi is finally 23 and start from today, he is same age with me again! XD

Did this amateur e-Birthday card very last minute and posted it to the Birthday Boy's blog just on time XD

Am munching the cake above when doing this blog post.

I have know this buddy for more than 5 years. Longest bestiest ever from what I can recall.

There are so much ups and down during in our friendship. We start to know each others as rival but the story after that doesn't went very well too.

There are so many uncertainties in futures, maybe we might not get the chance to walk into the Church together... aikk... maybe not Church, I am not gonna convert anyway~ but I can't deny that you will still be in my heart wherever we go. You are my most influential friend, even if we may separate later, hope our friendship remains.

Love,

Ysquare <3

FML - Wikipedia's Simple English =.= are you kidding me?

There is once I am very proud that I study Science and bombard my friends around me with the scientific terms that no1 could understand(I know, so mean right?). It was so bad at a point that my friends have to ask me to speak ENGLISH! LOL


Thats no the point of this point. When I was doing some research about my Final Year Project, which is some how related to medical (but you know my major is in Electronic and Computing), it really give me some hard time. One of the most complete guide to encyclopedic on net should be Wikipedia. Like you know, their English is so Fu(k!ng hard to understand =.=

So I decide to find the Chinese version (since my mother tounge is Mandarin + Cantonese), but hey! I found the J3sus Chr!st in language:

Wiki, are you kidding me? =.=
