JB Trip in Sep 09

We ventured into JB again to visit Fling sometime back in Sep 09 & headed straight to Gianni's for their value-for-money set meal!

We were disappointed that they didn't serve us with garlic thin crusts :( However, the rest of the dishes saved the day! As usual, nothing but praises for the quality of the food.

This is the reason why their pizza tastes so good!

Miaoli was supposedly to be with us, but she was caught up in her appointment. Don't worry sister, we got a cushion to be your substitute :)

Debating on which movie to watch ....

The start of a 2hr terror. Gosh, till now, I still can't believe that I actually paid for & sat through this movie. Nv going to listen to Leecher's recommendation on any movie again!

After the horrendous movie, we need to go find something cute to look at. If not, our minds will be filled with "prawns"

OMG! Prawns coming back to haunt us!

Fling & Noel took us to this Korean BBQ restaurant for dinner. We even had someone to BBQ the food for us, though I would prefer to experience the joy of BBQ-ing the food myself.

5 filled stomachs & we were all ready to leave the gory images of the "prawns" behind in JB. This post also concludes our JB adventure in 2009; more to come in 2010 (I hope)!

JB Trip in Jul 09

Another lazy Sunday afternoon spent in front of the computer; I wonder if this will be my weekly Sunday routine for 2010? With Leecher's laptop @ the service centre, I forsee that I will be arrowed to blog more in the coming weeks :(

Another JB trip in July 09! With my lovely sisters, Fling & Qian.

Settled our lunch at Shun Fa Bak Kut Teh, cuz Qian didn't get to try it previously. Fling went to pack 纸包鸡 as well.

Leecher & Qian spotted with lots of cuttlefish products upon seeing the signboard.

The agenda of the trip: for Leecher to take a dip in Fling's pool. Leecher has been complaining that we deprived him of his chance to swim during our last visit. Thus, to save my ears from unnecessary noise pollution, we decided to grant Leecher's his wish. It was very windy @ Fling's apartment that we could barely open our eyes!

Mahjong session after a good swim. Guess whose winning tiles?

Leecher-with-his-cui-hairdo-and-winning-tiles.

Dinnertime @ Hak Seng, once again. Though I am not a fish person, but I love the sweet and sour fish here! Even the vegetables taste nice. No wonder people keep flocking to this place though the owner has got serious attitude problem. We looked pretty tired after a long day of feasting & activities. You can be assured that there will be more such trips, as we are about to plan our 1st JB trip of 2010 :)

JB Trip in May 09

We went over to visit Fling yet again over one weekend. Can't really remember which. Looks like we might become JBians really soon.

Pics with some pretty babes before setting off! Taking public is actually a quite a bliss, if u minus all the walk that is, but we really cleared the customs faster den if we were to take the car.

Fling brought us to this restaurant which according to her, is where most ppl go to during festive seasons like Christmas in JB. Fully booked always! And I'm about to find out why... ...

Garlic thin crusts (at least this is wat I called them) served in advance for the soup. However, since all of us were famished from our journey, we gobbled them up in no time. Really crispy and savory. It tasted heavenly! Maybe it was because we were all too hungry, but first impression counts, I'm beginning to like this restaurant!

Most of us ordered the mushroom soup except Fling who wanted to go for the healthier tomato. I'm a soup person and oh man, their soup was simply BAGUS! All natural, as in, u could really munch on the mushroom bits, not those campbell quick fix, my my and the portions were really big.

We ordered a pizza for sharing too. Fling said their pizzas are a must try... and I think I know the reason why.

You see the oven below all the tin cans at the top right hand corner? Wow, that's a traditional firewood oven man. No wonder their pizzas tasted so good!!

And now the mains. My order was cod fish with spaghetti done alio oglio style. U could really taste the freshness in the fish. Flaky, not overly cooked. Although I would prefer the pasta to be a little softer.

Blamer ordered the grilled salmon risotto, but blur blur Blamer actually wanted to throw away the salmon skin! My my, do they know that in Japanese restaurants, salmon skin are akin to a delicacy and can be served as a dish on its own, so wasteful, tsk tsk.

A group pic and I must say Fling looked so bright and cheery with her new hairstyle.

Last pics outside the restaurant. And the best bit is, for all those food that we had, it only cost us MYR12.90 per head for the set lunch which consisted of the soup, main and a drink. I forgot how much the pizza cost but the meal was still a steal. Super duper value for money guys, so if any of u ever visit JB, this place is a definite must try!

Next activity: Karaoke! Although I'm not much of a crooner, had to tag along. Was actually thinking of having a dip in Fling's pool but... ... Looks like my tummy will continue to grow... While waiting for our room, chance upon this kiosk selling name stickers. Miao was the last to make hers, but man she really took a long time.

Fooling around while waiting for Miao... ...

Finally in the room singing, quite a cosy room and yes, they are using wireless mic. Not too bad yeah?

A surprise guest dropped by... ... And thanks again for that round of drinks!

Last stop: A visit to the lastest member of Fling's family. Baby Jeriel!

Here Blamer was trying to figure out how best to carry Jeriel while I was desperately trying to capture the precious moments when Jeriel smiled. But looks like Blamer's not doing a good job wa ha ha.

Miao and Qian took their turns as well.

Finally my turn! See I think the Jeriel likes me, notice this is the only photo where she smiled. Wa ha ha ha, and Blamer had to come chap ji kar... Blea... ...

Thanks Fling for having us over. Next time, I'm definitely going to swim... ...
