Jalan-jalan Sunway Pyramid

Lepas makan, rehat-rehat kejap. Dalam pukul 6 pm, kitorang keluar ke Sunway Pyramid sbb En K ada job sikit. Mak tak ikut sebab tak larat nak jalan.

Since dah ada kat Sunway Pyramid, aku pun cari la Cupcake Chic, sebab nak redeem coupon free masa beli brg kat Zalora. Buy 1 free 1 cupcake any flavour. I got 2 coupons, so I got 4 cupcakes altogether. I chose 2 red velvet and 1 each of belgian chocolate and apa ntah lagi satu lupa dah. Reason pilih RV sbb tak pernah rasa lagi, tengok dulu jadi satu fenomena....well dah rasa, ok je la, takde la teringat-ingat ke apa.

Untuk dinner, En K dengan baik hatinya nak belanja Tony Roma's. Tapi sampai sana, aku clueless, sbb tak tau nak makan apa. So let En K decide. Dia decide amik Lamb Ribs Full Slab (2 pcs) ngan side dishes, Haqimie pulak amik kid's menu, cheeseburger. Air En K minta hot chocolate, aku ice lemon tea dan Haqimie minta Mountain Dew. Qayyum dan Rayyan kongsi-kongsi je ngan kitorang. Sedap la kan, setanding dengan harga. Sekali sekala boleh la makan cam ni. Tapi balik tu aku migraine, sbb lamb ke?

Haqimie's Birthday

My eldest son is going to be an 8-year-old boy on Friday. He already asked me to bake him a butter cake (originally he asked for carrot cake, but since he tasted my butter cake the other day, he changed his mind). Well, for me ok je since butter cake is one of the easiest cake to make after all. I already bought some of the ingredients when we went out for groceries' shopping and topped with some other on Thursday when I went out for lunch with my colleagues.

On Friday, mmg rasa macam nak holiday ke apa, serious malas nak wat keje, rasa lagi lembab dari siput. Abby boring la kan, sbb tetiba Mr W bagi dia keje, design box. En K siap ponteng lagi, malas. Aku pon kalau diikutkan mmg la malas. Tapi pergi juga, sbb kan dah janji wat potluck. Aku bangun awal pagi, dok menumis bahan nak wat daging dendeng tu. Tapi, I told En K that I planned nak amik time off, around 4 something. Sebabnya nak pegi cari hadiah utk Haqimie, pastu leh balik awal to bake the cake before we went out for dinner. Haqimie requested nak makan kat Vicchuda dan opah lak sudi belanja ::wink::. Dia siap create event kat FB lagi birthday dia makan kat Vicchuda.

Time potluck, masing-masing makan menambah, siap amik resepi dari Sherry lagi. Lepas makan, bertambah la malas nak giler nak wat keje. Mrs J pulak mmg tak masuk, Mrs C pulak half day, wah memang macam nak raya la. Spoil cuma Mr W, Mr A ada.

Sherry bawa tempoyak bilis, aku bawa daging dendeng, Muni masak nasi, Abby bawa air kotak, Flora minta Julie2 belikan buah2an, Julie2 beli aiskrim. Aku ada bawa jugak Puding Roti Pelangi tu, licin, Hajar siap kata dia tak sempat rasa pon. Huhu..nanti la aku wat lagi.

Oh ya, akhirnya tudung yang I thought dah MIA tu sampai jugak pada aku. Ceritanya, pagi tu aku dah bising2 kat Poslaju call centre, komplen la pasal how come diorang boleh let go je org tulis no phone instead of IC no ngan company stamp kan. Siap mintak nama posmen, of coz la diorang x bagi, tapi aku geram. Diorang kata diorang akan wat siasatan. Alih-alih lepas lunch tu, Fanny datang bagi, dia kata actually takde org sign pon...hmm macam mana tu....? Anyway, alhamdulillah, dapat jugak tudung tu.

So, dalam pukul 3.45 pm aku sms Mrs J, kata nak amik time off. Fuh, nasib baik dia reply OK....jeles je bebudak tu aku balik awal, ngeh. En K dah ada kat bawah time tu, aku dah pesan awal2 tak payah bawak Haqimie dan Qayyum. Lepas amik Rayyan kat nursery, ktrg terus ke 1U, ingat nak guna voucher Isetan yang En K dapat time annual dinner tu, malangnya takde yang diaim. So ktrg pegi ke Toys'Rus, monopoly ada tapi takde diskaun, so pegi AEON lak, ada tapi diskaun 10% je, jadi la..beli terus. Lepas tu, terus shot balik rumah.

Sampai je, terus ke dapur, sediakan bhn2 nak buat kek, terus buat. Kek siap lebih kurang pkl 9 pm, tak sempat nak sejukkan pun, Haqimie dah tak sabar nak potong. So aku pun hias secara ekspres, tuang Hershey's Chocolate Sauce keliling kek, pastu tgh2 letak fresh strawberries. Pacak lilin 8 btg, nyalakan, nyanyi2 tiup lilin potong sorang sikit merasa, terus ktrg ke Vicchuda pulak. Hujan time tu.

Order ikan kerapu masak pedas, sup ekor, En K order nasi goreng USA sbb Qayyum suka, mak pulak nak lidah masak kicap. Alhamdulillah, ikan kerapu punya la besar. Kalau aku tau, aku request yg sedang aje. Total RM85. Aku tanya ikan kerapu tu berapa, dia kata RM55. Hoho mahalnya...

Balik rumah Haqimie buka hadiah, suka dia dapat Monopoly Cuti2 Malaysia. En K bagi jam Casio.

Well, that's my Friday's story.

Restoran Periok, Sungai Buloh

Tgh hari tadi, lepas balik dari pasar, ktrg singgah makan kat Restoran Periok kat area The Store, Sungai Buloh. Aku la bagi suggestion, sbb masa blogwalked hari tu, ternampak restoran ni jual asam pedas, nampak best.

En Koji order nasi beriani daging, mak order nasi beriani ayam berempah, aku order asam pedas ikan merah dan ulam-ulaman. Order jugak telur masin 1/2 biji.

Masa ulam sampai, aku pun cicah sambal belacan. Perghhh...pedas giler tapi sedap...Pastu asam pedas sampai, mmg sedap...meleleh air hidung menahan pedas asam pedas + sambal belacan, hahahah....

Mak pun kata nasi beriani sedap, tapi aku rasa nasi beriani JM sedap lagi kot, tapi aku suka la asam pedas dia...ikan pun fresh....tapi aku tak suka air Nescafe Periok dia, tatau dia bubuh apa, macam gula melaka pun ada, tak kena dengan tekak.

Menu:
1 pinggan nasi beriani daging
1 pinggan nasi beriani ayam berempah bhgn peha
2 pinggan nasi putih
1 pinggan ulam + sambal belacan (kacang botor, kacang panjang, salad, timun)
1 pinggan asam pedas ikan merah bhgn ekor
1 gelas Nescafe Periok
2 gelas teh o ais
1 gelas kopi ais
1/2 biji telur masin

Total: RM57.90

Aku rasa ok kot harga tu dgn portion yg dia bagi...

Cerita raya haji (Part I)

Last keje hari khamis tu, actually aku dah minta 1/2 day, tapi not approved, sbb mrs boss kata aku dah amik cuti 2 kali dah bulan 10 tu, plus katanya aku byk keje (padahal keje tu takde la heavy sangat pon). Tapi takpe la, dah tak dapat cuti kan, tapi plan asal kena ubah la kan.

MIL ada kat sini, datang beraya ngan her sisters, anak2 and menantu. Un and family pun ada juga. Tapi aku dan En Koji dah ada plan lain. Kitorang cadang nak ke Jerantut, Pahang, beraya kat sana with my mom and Nyah's family. Diorang kata diorang ada buat korban. Pastu En Koji bercadang nak ke Terengganu dan Kelantan, saja jalan-jalan. So, plan asalnya nak belanja the whole family makan-makan, kira awal la sikit kan, lepas tu kitorang akan terus bertolak ke Jerantut. Tapi disebabkan aku tak dapat cuti, so reschedule plan. Janji ngan diorang pukul 8 pm.

At first, En Koji ajak ke Madam Lim's. Tapi aku teringat, hari sebelumnya Abby pegi makan kat D'Manggis, so aku pun bagi la cadangan kat En Koji pegi makan kat sana. Sbb at least something new la kan, takde la asik2 makan kedai tomyam and such kan. Lagipon ada ice cream so sesuai la utk bebudak yang ramai tu. En Koji pun setuju walaupun dia x brp suka makan kat situ, tak menepati citarasa katanya. Dia lebih prefer Johnny's.

So, aku pun call Abby minta no phone D'Manggis, tapi Abby dengan baik hatinya tolong bookkan utk aku. Ok settle.

So, sementara nak tunggu masa dinner tu, kitorang ke Sunway Giza, beli stok susu Rayyan. Masuk Village Grocer, beli bahan-bahan untuk buat nasi ketumbar kat rumah Nyah nanti, sbb mak teringin nak rasa.

Masalahnya, hari dah start hujan dan diorang yang lain tu agak lambat turn up. So, En Koji sudah bising, katanya nanti takut makanan dah habis, sbb time tu dah nak dekat pukul 8.30 pm dah. Dah la kitorang nak ke Jerantut pulak kan. Dah la jalan pun agak jauh, lokasi kat Kuang. Diorang tak tau jalan, nak tak nak kena tunggu jugak la. Sementara tunggu kat Shell Seksyen 7 tu, kitorang pegi ambil Ika dan Mirzan dulu. Mula-mula En Koji kata ex-kak ipar nak ikut, tapi agaknya sbb kitorang yang pegi ambil anak2 dia, dia segan la kot, dia bajet Abg Din la nak amik dia kot kan, Ika kata mama demam. Well, kalau dia setuju nak ikut pun, I'll feel awkward jugak, sbb tak berapa rapat ngan dia. Actually aku pun pelik kenapa dia beria-ia nak ikut. Sbb time dulu2 pun dia bukannya suka sangat family En Koji ni. Hmm...whatever. Peoples change anyway.

By this time, hujan dah lebat, diorang sampai je terus gerak. Jam tak payah kata la, aku risau je makanan abis diorang tak top-up, so rugi la kan, nak cari tpt mkn lain pulak, dah kesuntukan masa. So aku call, alhamdulillah diorang kata food still ada.

Sampai sana dalam 8.50 pm kot, terus duduk dan En Koji terus ambil bahan2 nak steamboat and grill. Later baru Abg Din sampai, dia baru balik keje.

Menu yang ada: Nasi goreng dan rojak buah (sedap).

Bahan2 steamboat dan grill: 2 jenis daging perap (salah satunya lada hitam), ayam (rasa macam sate), udang, ketam kecil, sotong, ikan kembung kecil, pelbagai bebola, sosej, yee mee, maggi, mi kuning, kueytiow, telur, sayur2 (baby corn, cherry tomatoes, oyster mushrooms, sawi, dll). Sos ada 3 jenis kot. Banyak juga la pilihan.

Sides: Kerepek2, biskut2, ice cream (ada 8 jenis), air sirap, oren.

I must say, ok jugak la even though kuah dia tu tak menepati citarasa sangat, sebab to me, quite sweet la tomyam dia, why la tak buat pedas sikit.

Utk harga pulak, dewasa RM25, kanak-kanak bawah 12 thn: RM12, kanak2 bawah 3 thn, free.

Lepak2, sembang2, dalam pukul 10 pm cam tu, gerak ke Jerantut, punya la jam kan, malam raya la katakan. En Koji decide ikut jalan lama, Bentong. Dia kata dia rela ikut jalan jauh daripada stuck dalam jam.

Sampai Jerantut dalam pkl 3 am.

Movie: Toy Story 3

I never watched the first 2 movies, and I don't really into cartoons unless the ones from my childhood days like Smurf, My Name is Jem, and so on. But since I have two boys who loves cartoons so much, we went to watch Toy Story 3 at TCM. RM22 for all 4 of us. Great bargain. Ate at this café (3 cafes combined), I ate Teriyaki NZ Beef with rice and vege (nice), En Koji ate Nasi Ayam shared with Qayyum (and En Koji said it was sedap, which I think ok mmg sedap coz En Koji is not the ‘café’ type person so it must be really sedap then). Haqimie had Hailam Meehoon which I think also sedap la kot based on his concentration on that food.) And En Koji ordered Eggs Fried Rice which he said sedap also. So, it’s really worth coz I’m the one who paid for the dinner.

*Image by Google

Overall, I never imagined that Toy Story 3 is such a great movie, at least to me coz I’m not a cartoon lover. But this movie is good, I laughed all the way and cried also, sedih la near-ending dia. At first I thought, alamak am I gonna watch cartoons? Haha… but seriously, recommended.

Anyways, works as always, hectic and headache. Got to finish the whole English Y6 by next week. She rushed us all with exception in F’s case. She’s so special indeed. She can always drag her deadline whenever she feel like to.

When I was gossiping with M yesterday’s evening near her car, suddenly I saw J at her car. Alamak, so we changed our subject quickly, and J called for me and told me that she’s going to watch Eclipse. So, me being covered up, asked her did she get her tix already? She said she bought it already last Sunday. Then she offered me to buy the tickets coz if she’s using her CC she can get 'buy 2 free 2' tix (which I think quite interesting but Cineleisure is not my fave cinema). Then, I said nevermind. She offered me again and again. When En Koji arrived, I told him about that and he said why not? So, embarrassed as I am, I sms J and asked her to buy the tix for me. Hahaha…what a shame. So, we got the tix for tonite’s show at 10 pm. Yeah 10 pm and probably ends by 12 am and tomorrow is Saturday and I’m working. Definitely great.

Hmm, J called me just now. She handed me some stuffs and also the tix. I gave her the money but she said she belanja me. She thought I’ll be going with my friends but when I said I’m gonna bring my sons along, she said, really aah? Yes, of coz, (I hope they can behave themselves though)..ahahah. Well thanx for belanja anyway. But all those came with some tazkirah (a short one) from her.

J: Sh** u know la rite, we are going to rush this project, if u think you can’t cope up, pls arrange ur time, whether u come early or stayback….

Duh…

Me: Hmm, I’ll see to it…(then cepat2 blah, before her ‘tazkirah’ become ‘ear candy’).

Well, yeay…am gonna watch Eclipse for sure tonite (or Edward to be specific). And I really hope the kiddos will behave, they should be.

Had lunch at Naina Mohamed KD with M and we met AM there. Sat at the same table (he asked us anyway), and we talked none other than office matters. I bought for them coz since J didn’t want me to pay for the tix, so I belanja them la. Amal jariah once in a while. Anyway, to me this mamak restaurant is very different from other of its kind. It’s cheaper and tasty altogether. Very worth for money.

Vicchuda lagi

At least once a week mesti nak makan kat Vicchuda. Muka pun dah nak jadi muka tom yam. Ni Encik Koji la ni, tak jemu-jemu. Sampai aku dah tak tau nak order apa, last sekali order ayam goreng kunyit dengan kacang panjang sudah.

Haqimie tengah menelaah menu.
Qayyum konon-kononnya baca mag Upin dan Ipin. Macam la paham kan.
Sampai Haqimie bengang la Qayyum tak nak bagi mag tu pada dia.

Tengok tu Haqime dah menung sebab bengang.

The best Som Tam in BBSB

So delicious, Restoran Zai Tomyam, Bandar Baru Sungai Buloh. But the grilled fish is not to my liking anyway.

Vicchuda Kota Damansara

Sotong Masak Pedas


I guess Papa can be the ambassador of Vicchuda already. In a month, we will go there so many times. The menu will be the same for him everytime we went there. Must have sotong masak pedas and telur dadar. Apa yang sedap sangat haku pon tatau la.

While for me, mmg la boring nak makan kat sana. Dah tatau nak order amenda dah. every single thing pon rasanya dah try. Sometimes order kedai sebelah lagi...punya la boring ngan menu Vicchuda.

Tapi 3 layers tea mmg sedap.... tapi dah 2 kali pergi order tak dapat sbb dia kata base kaler hitam tu tak sampai-sampai lagi. Rasanya gula melaka pekat kot....

CintaRia @ DJ Cafe

Lamb Chops


Papa always love Dave's Deli Roast Chicken. So we went to Yus's friend's cafe (the owner originated the original recipe - FYI - Dave's Deli were sold to other people so the owner opened this cafe) at DJ to have a feast. Unfortunately, Roast Chicken were finished already by the time we arrived there. SO he had to order Grilled Chicken and I ordered Lamb Chops. For the kids, we ordered Mushroom Soup and toast.

The servings were huge. Grilled chicken comes with olio spaghetti, mashed potatoes and vege. Lamb chops with mashed potatoes and vege. And the mushroom soup was marvellous coz it was not like others - this type got plenty of mushroom's slices in it. Overall delicious (bertambah sedap sebab Linda belanja, thanx ya Linda).

Cucur udang

Hmm can't remember what day I cooked this dish. Last week.

For these few days, me got nothing to update. Actually got, but too tired to do so. Started from Saturday, I already felt tired. That nite, Papa ajak pergi ke OU pon malas, so he just went there with Haqimie. Qayyum was left with me.

On Sunday, I got things to attend in DJ till evening. I thought of resting in my house after that, but then when Papa came and fetched me, I saw Yus and Enal. Okay... but I'm tired and moody because of my scarred face due to terkena percikan minyak panas on last Thursday. Ada kesan hitam-hitam... lepas tu nak jenjalan la pulak kan. Tension je.

Anyway, we went to Sunway Pyramid. Luckily my fringe saved my day. I can hide the biggest scar under the fringe. Others on my cheeks and center of the forehead of coz can't help it but they were small scars so nevermind with that.

And am so damn hungry sebab sengaja tak nak lunch time kat DJ. Bcoz that morning I already had nasi goreng that I made for breakfast. Ajak diorang sumer makan kat food court Jusco. I had Sizzling Longevity Noodles (dengan harapan akan panjang umur, ngeh!). Okey la, but then, maybe I was too tired plus perut dah masuk angin, I can't finish the noodles.

Then, hujan yang amat di luar sana.... Went to The Mall la pulak, since Papa nak survey ada kasut Levi's ke... aku dah tak larat, just melepak kat tepi koridor sambil pangku Qayyum yang tengah tido.

Then, takde yang dijumpa, ke Campbell's la pulak. Huhuhuh, can't describe how tired am I that day!

On the way to KD, Din called and said he was at Pelangi. So, went to Pelangi, but me and Yus just waited inside the car. We were going for dinner.

Dinner at Gulam, but me ordered Tauhu Bakar (tapi tak sampai-sampai), pastu dah tak sampai, mood pon takde nak makan, still full sebab pukul 5 ptg tu baru nak lunch kan. Just ratah chicken wings 2 ketul kecik tu, pastu minum air tembikai sampai 2 gelas, tu yang kenyang tak ingat. Kenyang air.


Around 11++ pm baru la sampai rumah, adeh la esoknya keje pulak. Penatttttt!

Chilli's

Erm, nampaknya profesion memasak di dapur sendiri tak bertahan lama. Coz semalam, Papa ajak ke OU (mentang-mentang dia cuti panjang - asyik ajak berjalan aje). Anyway, Qayyum masih demam lite-lite.





He brought us to Chilli's (rasanya sebab ari tuh aku ada bagi hint bila dia nak belanja kitorang anak-beranak kat Chilli's). Tapi, dah Qayyum tak berapa sihat, yang si Haqimie pulak tanak duduk diam, so we didn't really enjoy our meals. Tapau je lorr... yang lebihnya.






Papa ordered Lamb Shank (tapi dia menyesal, sebab bukan taste dia, he should ordered the chops instead - aku pun tak berapa suka sebab terasa sangat herbsnya dan the meat was too soft)

I ordered Cajun Club Sandwich. Since every single main meal that has been ordered, we can order kid's meal for free - so I chose cheese macaroni and kid's burger for them.

Tapi yang sempat makan just the lamb shank and the cheese macaroni, itu pon the macaroni tak sempat nak abiskan sebab Qayyum dah meragam sangat. So the sandwiches and burger, kitorang tapau aje la.

After that, just browsing around. Bought a Ben10 t-shirt for Haqimie. Sian Qayyum, takde size la untuk dia. Nanti mama cari lagi ya.

Later on, singgah kat rumah Yus dan Enal. Diorang pulak masak nasi, jamah la sikit. Sembang punya sembang, bebudak pon dah heboh nak balik la, nak nenen la... so balik, sampai rumah dah pukul 11 pm.

Terima kasih ya En Koji aka Papa belanja kitorang... Btw, balance semalam tu, jadik breakfast la untuk Haqimie dan Mama.

Oh ya, Haqimie dah dapat uniform PASTI after more than one month of waiting, tapi lupa nak snap gambar. Esok je la...

I think I have to consider to change his kindy la kot since he always looks unhappy whenever we are sending him over.
