Goldsmith..

That day my tiny little gold bracelet was cutted accidently..... I only knew it is missing after I went to office...

Oh Darn.... I thought I will never find it back again... for God's sake I don't even realize it is missing and dropped somewhere...

Believe it or not...... it actually dropped inside my house!!! I found in when I was back home that time... *happy**happy*

So I have to find a goldsmith to repair my bracelet....who else if your own uncle is a very experience goldsmith....

Many of us might not even have a chance to see how goldsmith works on gold..... mostly people are using machine now.. man power is expensive, rite?

Uncle mending the broken bracelet....

Trying to join the bracelet back together...

Ohh.... fire comes!!! Blow and burn and melt and join back......



Tadah!!!!! My good old bracelet is back again :)

Thanks so much!!!

Sushi Queen?

That day we spent half day shopping at Jusco @Bandar Perda..
Then we decided to try out Japanese food..

There is this Japanese restaurant in Jusco, the founder is Sushi King's wife -- "Sushi Queen" ;p

Wonder Sushi King gonna sue her or not... well, not my business...

So this is the place....

All in Tangerine Orange environment... displaying all kinds of Japanese rice wine..

The place is quite comfortable and cooling..

But the menu here is quite pricey though...more expensive than her husband's....

This Ikura Sushi (fish eggs) ....... oohh.....absolutely delicious!! :)

It will burst in your mouth, abit salty and sweet... real gems okay!!!

The Unagi Bento... my favouriteeee....!!!!

It is very hot served, full of unagi aroma.. I like it....
The Unagi is very tender, very meaty.... just right to mixed with the Japanese "short&fat" rice ..



This is the Squid grilled with tuna inside... it looks very appetizing...

But too bad, it did not taste as good.. The squid is already too over grilled and lose all its tenderness... it is real hard to chew on, like eating rubberband ...

But we ate all of it too................ becoz we already paid for it mahh....

=.='''


All in all... Sushi Queen is okay.... but with the pricey menu, we would have higher expectation on the food and service, which is not yet up to par though... maybe she needs to get some key learnings from her husband then...

The New 'Pullman Hotel' @Kuching

That day I was back in Kuching, we went to the latest and greatest Hotel downtown, called 'Pullman Hotel'.

It is located uphill behind Hilton, attaching with The Hills Shopping Mall..

While I was wondering... how come it is named 'Pullman'?? Anything special with it? Coz it is really weird as a name.... one of its kind..

Then I saw this at the Lobby.....

*Pull* ..*Pull* ..*Pull* ..

*Pull Lagiiiii....*


*Pull Kuat Kuat.....sungguh sekali...*

*Urghhhhhhh.... PULL!!!!*

Ohh..... no wonder it is called 'Pullman Hotel'...

Dinner experience @Xian Ding Wei Taiwanese Tea Room

Right... weekend eatout @ Queensbay.... but then we did not have any identified restaurant to try out...

We were strolling at level two when we spotted this new restaurant at a far corner end..
Never seen this restaurant before, must be very very newly opened..

It looks very welcoming, so we decided to have a try... :)

The new restaurant, Xian Ding Wei Taiwanese Tea Room... here we come..!

Wah..... So many many mouth-watering taiwanese foods in the menu....

After a thorough look thru on the menu... we ordered this Taiwan Braised Pork Rice (滷肉饭)...


The pork rice is juicy and fragrant...it has a mixture of lean meat and fatty portion.... nice one..

I can just gobble up the whole bowl immediately >.<

This is the 台湾三杯鸡, direct translation would be like Taiwanese 3 variety chicken...fried together with red chilies and basil leaves... extremely aromatic... the meat is all from drumstick, awfully tender and juicy.....

Thumbs up!!!!!

We also ordered this 红糟炸排骨, well known as Pork Chop with wine... temptingly crispy and juicy; however, the pork meat inside is just too little to taste the pork at all..

I love the environment set up in the restaurant... with purple theme... I love purple!!!

We can eat our meal more comfortably as it is set up with all sofas instead os the usually small hard chairs..

See! I just love purple...... purple is just so soothing.... :)

Very nice experience eating out here although it is abit pricey....

Not bad at all for a romantic dinner... ;)

Weird local fruit..

Dad bought this weird local Sarawak fruit from Kenyalang Market sold by the aborigines that weekend when I am back home...

It has a weird dialect name called 'Tham Pui'... not a very nice name though if you understand Hokkien or TeoChew dialects.. >.<

Dunno the real normal name for it....


You just press it with both hands and it will split to halves..

It has 4-5 pieces, smell & taste sweet and with some juice, but the seed inside is quite big, leaving it with some meat only...

Not bad at all, if you see this in some local markets, can have a try :)
