2nd Trip to Sungai Buloh :)

We went for another trip to Sungai Buloh again last Sunday as we ran out of black soil and some pots for the plants we bought the last time so we made a short trip back there and this time around i get to spend much time playing with mon coeur's camera and it's functions and without using any map we managed to reach Sungai Buloh in one piece :) so here are the pictures :)

aha....

hrumppp..... hehehe

Mengada-ngada time...

Usually when i'm not feeling well or just on "mintak-puji" mode i will crave for food that i know i will not get like my mom's curry fish for example....So what to do..i was thinking..... i have some nice fish in the fridge and i have just bought some curry powder so i did it my way and make my own curry fish...this just shows i miss home and i miss my mom's cooking...huhuhu :((

so here is my own way of making....

"Chindika Fish Curry"

lots and lots of veggies just how i like it :)

Simmering .....

And....finally, Chindika Fish Curry!

Afternoon Lunch Time Melody!

Was just chating online with my aunt just now and was wondering what on earth to cook for lunch and then i went to look at the fridge and saw that i have some seafood that i need to clear out from the fridge and so what else ro do in such a limited time to spare as i ,ve got class later so decided to make "Seafood Paella" and its one of mon coeur's favourite dish and so he said it's delish! :)




Ingredients:

hand full of live prawns & squid
red, yellow and green capsicum + tomatoes (diced)
half cooked rice

Preparation:

sauteed the diced tomatoes & capsicum(s) in a wok with some finely chopped garlic,sharlots and green onions, Then add the half cooked rice and sauteed for another 5 minutes. Then transfer to the pot where you cook the rice with and cook till rice is cooked.

While waiting for the rice to cook, prepare the seafood by stirfrying the prawns and squid with finely chopped garlic+sharlots+green onion and add a little bit of fish sauce and some oyster sauce for 6 mins .

After the seafood is ready, transfer them to the pot where the rice is being cooked and mix well and just let it simmer and cooked together with the rice.

Done and ready to be serve :)

SeaFood Paella!


Voilà!

My secret indulgence :)

I went for a recent meeting somewhere @ Jalan Raja Chulan last Tuesday and after the meeting i found myself having a fair bit of time to go explore around that area and my first stop was Estana Curry House! I cant believe how my nose works to detect this place as i am not following any maps as i dont know these areas i just know that im hungry AND craving for some curry stuffs as it does feels like ages since my last curry at my mom's place back in KK :( How sad is that!! i used to have curries every single day back in KK coz mom knows how much i loveeeeeeeeeeeee curries....it must be my indian blood speaking out loud when it comes to curries and stuffs so here are the pics of the food i had eaten blissfully on my own and savouring every thing slowly hehehhe...but mind you look @ the bill...my goodness so very the expensive lah!!! but its ok for now its my hungger for indian food is what matters and so i got it!! ;)



The food display

what i had....bits of this and that
tofu, ikan tenggiri goreng, mixed vege, telur masin (my fav) then some sambal undang...yummmyy
and i has Teh -"O" - Ais!

The "BILL"

i was standing acrross the road when i took this pic and decided to go to "Sungai Wang" instead and i'm glad i made the choice coz whatever i bought that day is really worth all my money which was not that much. Bought two dresses for RM25 bucks so that was ok by me :)


satisfied me!

Happy Mother's Day Sunday

Well initially we wanted to go and visit KLCC as i have never actually went for the tour itself BUT...unfortunately all the tickets were sold out and according to the lady we had to get in as early as 7.30am to be in the line to get the tickets as per day they are only issuing about 1200 tickets. Unfortunately we were too late. But anyhow, mon coeur had a meeting there at KLCC so i tagged along but i went jalan-jalan at the KLCC shops while he went for the meeting.

I spend mostly my time in the bookstore and reading and reading and called mom a couple of times to see what shes up to and wish her happy mom's day...i miss her and i miss occassions like this back home we use to have a gathering or some sort and this year i miss it :( Mapsy was supposed to post some pics about the gathering but guessed she is busy ....

Mon coeur joined me browsing in the bookstore and before too long we were both are sitting on the floor reading our favourite books on Asian Homes Decor particularly balinese home decor. then we decided to get the book after all as it would be a nice addition to our own little collection back at the condo. Then we went for a simple lunch @ KFC my long time favourite heheheh :) then we went window shopping and ended up mon coeur suprised me with a gift! :)

Happy Mother's Day gift and am not a mom yet heheheh.....thank you very very much for the lovely gift mon coeur and now we are both Issey Miyake fan :)

Then after that we went jalan-jalan outside the KLCC building where there were swimming pool for kiddies and just a nice place to hang about doing nothing just resting your eyes and just observing people. here are some of the shots taken aroun dthe area and some of these shots are taken by either me or mon coeur :)

Not an interesting swimming place for the kids but it will do i guess...hehehe

Random pics of us at the KLCC park using mon coeur's camera ;)


After KLCC, we head off to Bangsar where we intend to do our groceries shopping and decided to go to the Pasar Malam Kuala Lumpur in Bangsar. I really had wonderful time going thru the pasar for our groceries needs like veges and fruits. Its not only good quality but also very cheap so i'm pretty sure we are going to this pasar malam every sunday for our groceries then.

cakes....tempting indeed...
les Cakes à la banane sont toujours là! Ouf!!!!
petit clin d'oeil à ma soeur Aline... hehehe

My favourite fruit ..and look how beautiful they look under the afternoon sun

And..another suprise from mon coeur...he got me these beautiful flowers when we were out @ the pasar malam....told me to pick 3 types and he said it's for me for no reason at all :)) i was smilling from ear to ear....hehehe merci beauchoup mon coeur! it means so so so much! emmuahhhh!!!
