It is not easy to find something cheap and nice to eat for lunch or dinner, but when me and I my friends keep trying restaurants around Kuchai Lama area, I could not help to notice this shop JoJo Little Kitchen Pan Mee which is always sardine packed with people during lunch time, and according to my colleague, its cheap and nice, that is why its always pack.

Jojo

Not until recently already do not know what to eat around that area, decided to give it a try at this shop since its recommended by them and read quite a number of good reviews on this shop and they have been opening branches in a few places.

We reach the shop early and nearly all the tables are already occupied. A simple interior, that decorate the place with wooden tables and chairs, walls painted with colours to look cheerfull.

When I look at the menu, the price is reasonable cheap with a standard selection.

If you are a fan of pan mee and chili lover, you will know what mixture of chili should be added into your noodle.

‘Fried Pork’ @ RM 6

A big slice of pork being fried and cut into slices after its done, that the outer layer is crispy and find it that it is a bit overcook, and if they were cook not that long, the pork will definitely taste good, not a bad dish after all.

Jojo (6)

‘Hot and Spicy Pan Mee’ is something that most people would  not want to miss if they are out of idea what to order. The look itself is not does not feel spicy as comes with mince pork, with half boil egg and added chili flakes ourself. Then you mix all the ingredients together, turns out to be very nice, with noodle cook perfectly and the taste of mince pork and chili flakes with sambal did not over power each other. RM 5.80

Jojo (7)

‘Curry Laksa Pan Mee’ been always one of my favourite and this taste pretty good too, with curry soup is not so thick, chicken is very soft and juicy, and overall it suits my liking. RM5.80

Jojo (8)

‘Traditional Pan Mee’ that will serve with slices mushroom, anchovies and mince pork. RM5.50

Jojo (9)

Then we decided to go for something adventurous by trying ‘Herbal Chicken Pan Mee Soup’ which turns out to be pretty good. Soup base of the herbs which is just nice (not very strong in herbs taste) and together with the noodle that cook till just right, my colleague drink till the bowl clean. RM 7

A place that worth a try and recommend for the price, portion and quality, I surely would not mind to come back again.

Please do come early to this shop as when we left around 12.45pm, there are already a lot people waiting outside and waiting for tables during lunch hours to avoid disappointment.

Been coming to Mid Valley couple of times recently, but not during the past weekend as I drove pass by the amount of traffic into Mid Valley is ‘SIAU’.. I guess this is due to a lot of people now doing last minute Chinese New Year shopping already.

As usual, its always a headache for me to think of a place to eat in MV not till me and my friend was walking around and scouted this place as I remember I ta pau the nyonya kuih before which is not bad. Since most of the time I walk pass by its always pack with people and decided to give it a try.

They hae a fix menu on the ala cart range yet the choices of Nyonya kuih are quite alot.

Nyonya1 (3)

The day when I went there was like a dead place cuz it was very early which is around 6pm.

Nyonya1 (4)

If you do come across of cooking a meal at home, all you need to do is to grab one of this pre pack curry sauce to buy back add in some water, boil and cook it and you are ready to makan~

Nyonya1 (5)

I just love my drink ‘Sour plum with asam’ as sure taste like pure blend of the sour plum and the asam is to make the drink even more sour till my jaw bone there so numb. Just love this drink as that day was quite hot and it’s a thirst quencher for me.

Nyonya1 (6)

Do not know what to choose in the limited menu offered by them , so I opted one of my favourite in list to give it a try, ‘Yellow Curry Laksa’ which sounds unique but with the name on top it did not disappoint me, with the vermicelli flooded with the thick laksa soup and added on with the mint leaf just pulls out the taste and with the minimal chili I top onto, turns out to be quite spicy yet satisfying. RM8.90

Nyonya1 (7)

Then my friend order ‘Nasi Lemak Rendang Chicken’. When it was serve, the first part of nasi lemak already pass the test, with some coconut smell is there when it was serve. The rending curry turns out to be not bad too. Mild spicy level, a bit thick curry gravy yet not the type of using curry powder that cook the chicken meat soak the flavor in. RM8.90

Nyonya1 (8)

Nyonya1 (9)

The kuih turns out to be not bad but I find it slightly over price maybe its because under MV but no complain with the taste of it. RM0.90-RM3

Overall, its not a bad place to dine in at with the price tag on the food. Do not mind for a revisit.

Making Tang Yuen is one of Chinese culture but its special on December 22nd which is a day for Chinese family member get together and make tang yuen (glutinous rice ball) which is also a day remarks that we are a year older.

Dong Zhi know as “The Winter Festival”, is the last celebration in a year before the arrival of Lunar New Year.

My mom bought this ready made flour at the market and just need to roll it into small balls.

of course you have to tear it into small pieces or your desire size to make it into small round balls.

Usually will make the rice ball a few colours.

and after boiling into hot water with added on some sugar syrup this is ready to be eaten. Usually one of my favourite. I took 3 bowls of this. kekkee

~ Happy Dong Zhi ~

After our satisfying dinner, then the first thing that came in my friends mind was ‘ Lai lai…cepat!! Pong sui, Pong sui’ to combine and go gamble. On that day itself, who ever say things that lose lah, things that go against the luck kena Tiau.
But actually our very original schedule was to head to ‘Hong Kong Disneyland’ but it was me that influence them to change their mind to go Macau. All the while I know that Macau is just a gambling island or I would rate it as mini Vegas but I did not know that they had develop till so nice. I got inspired that I must visit this island when I was watching this romantic movie acted by Andy Lau and Shu Qi – Look for a Star. Cannot deny that it was a great movie and also the whole film mostly film at Macau that they film it so nice till I wanna to there so badly. How I influence them was most of my friend did watch this movie, so just relate and describe..kekek
Our dress code for the day, White and Blue.
So every 1 contributed HKD 100 each and created a mini tou san group.
We are on our way…Macauzzzz…. And my friend were asking auntie Cyndy whether she can vomit a not..cuz she so old liau. Can tahan or not. Then gave her a pill and told her its ‘Feng Tau Yuen’.

The seating in the ferry and we have the front row. Cant really see the view as the front part is kinda high. This is how much it cost to go Macau for 1 way.

Finally, excitement mode on, reaching the new Pier as what the Macau tour guide told us and in front of us is the Macau International Air Port. Where he ask us where are we from, told him that from Malaysia and he directly mention that Air Asia also fly in here very frequent and a lot of his client take Air Asia. Something should be proud off.

When we learn to pronounce the word in the board, it totally sounds ugly, funny and damm weird, we were laughing all the way with our stupid facial expression and tongue twisting.

From far, that building with 3 colours, is one of a building that I am amaze off, its MGM Grand Macau Hotel which is very famous in Las Vegas and now in Macau.

One of the place that we will be heading with all classic Portuguese style building are in there. Picturessssss….
One of the old Pier that previously all the ferry and boats from China and Hong Kong would stop by. Now they have diverted to the new Pier.

I didn’t know that Macau have Grand Prix till the tour guide told us. That its one of a famous event that held over here annually. Its something like Singapore, they are using the normal road as their track.
When no more grand prix event, so what do they normally do with the track? It’s a grand prix for busses.
This is their starting point.

Ladies and Gentleman, please start your engine. . . . . . Passengers, please fasten your seatbelts.

Warning:
Those who have high blood pressure, heart attack, pregnant women, old folks above 55 and other sickness, please choose another alternative public transport. Your safety and after effect, we will not be responsible.

 

Then after this, normally for a tour guide, they will bring you to a particular shop for you to stop by and buy souvenir. In this shop we bought a interesting lighter which is a size of a chip the I forgot to take a pic but will later posted under souvenir post. Found out that in the very back part of the shop in a small cupboard I found this little cute souvenir.

Tadaaa….learn your skilss. . . .

Next destination. . .

One of Macau’s most famous landmarks, whereby every 1 that visited the island will NEVER miss this historic place. It’s the ‘St’Paul Church’ which was build on 1582 by the Portuguese and be one as the largest Catholic church in Asia at that time. 300 years later around 1835 was burn down by fire during a typhoon.

Till today, what is standing tall is the main part of the church and behind it had become a historic place to be visited.

I like the style of the surroundings, where at the bottom of the church, their building style is so classic and feel like you are in Europe like something similar in the movie of Angel and Demon which they show more about Rome.

From these moments onwards, we were jumping like hooligans to take the best pic. Just from this point, I think we jump quite a lot of times till the tourist scratch their head and thinking what they hell are this group of ppl trying to do.

This is what they have behind the main entrance, a heritage site that mention about how the church grow and so fort. As we were given limited time, so this is the onli pic I took.

Inside with this priest.

One of the best traveling vehicle in Macau is motorcycle. The tour guide told us, if you lost your key or don need a transportation, just simply use a key and open one of these bike, just pump and ride. Lol…that’s mean stealing. He said no. Just borrow to get to destination A to B.

After he mention that, there is a couple and the guy with a hot chick and the girl just put on helmet, took off with that guy. In Malaysia, if you were to ask a girl to ride on a bike with you for a date, I think they rather go back to their house or fine, this will be the last time I am going to see you.

They only have 1 way street and the street is damm narrow just enough for fei hai like me to walk.

After jumping and running around that makes us sweating like hell or the weather in Macau is just killing us even though that the weather for the day is cloudy. Thank God! We are heading to Macau Fisherman’s Wharf. A place for dining, Shopping, Convention, Fun and Hotel’s are located in this mini area. Click on the link, it’s a cool website to visit.

Our lunch had been arrange and was eating in this restaurant. The food was totally disappointed and I never careless even to take a picture. The only thing that interests me to take the pic is the 70’s car concept dining area.

A safari if not mistaken.

Then we trail down the road on the side and lead us to Rocks Hotel. After I came back from the trip and read in the newspaper that Star Metro was featuring this hotel I was impress as it is a 5 star hotel. They have very cool classic room interior design. The find out more about the hotel click here Rocks Hotel.

 I don know which part is consider which part. The back or the front.

Trying to act cute infront of the hotel. So all ended up Hamster style~

After photo shooting there a lot and slowly trail back to the other end. We reach back here which is the Babylon Casino which is the restaurant that we had lunch and this building was next to it.

It’s a long way to reach to the there end which had a mini Coliseum. The weather that day, is seriously killing us.

This area was build upon to very Portuguese style.

This is one the scene where the movie of ‘Look for a Star’ by Andy Lau took place.

Non stop of taking pictures all the way~
A gila pic took place when can come out with something weird by trying hard to polute the water.
Finally we had reach the Coliseum, and my very first pic, running and jumping around…weeeeeee~~~~!!!
Another pic we trying to create.

One of the alley.

When me and my friend saw this lady, I fast fast took the pic of her and my friend were saying, she must be ‘Ngor Tai’ standing here pretending to hold the broom and look at opposite. Come come, faster take, the feeling of ngor tai police in action mode.
While walking back to our bus, then the tour guide suddenly tell us about her daughter, that to maintain a girl in Macau is the same as the 1 in Hong Kong which Sg’rean have their 5c’s but them are even worst, head to toe all branded, go holiday this and that. Then ask us any 1 interested in her daughter or not. Lol. Forgot to take the pic of her daughter, but her daughter is quite pretty. Then one of my friend like wahhhh..uncle, correct 1 or not, or you download from the net and put in your pic. Then the tour guide like suddenly, U dou chi sin ge! She is 19 years old this year. A funny old guy, like that promote the daughter.

After this place, we were so freaking tired. Wanted to bring us to a temple and we just cancel it, lazy to walk, jump and run anymore. Tour us to Li Ka Sing very first house in the island. Then told us about his 3rd wife, how he manage to marry this wife as before marriage, he gave the wife a blank cheque and ask her to write what ever figure you want. Then if not mistaken she tore it off and told Li Ka Sing something touching that is how she is one of Li Ka Sing wife’s today. To know more about the story, please google up.
Quickly ask the tour guide bring us to casino. Then suddenly my friends eye like ‘ting ting ting’ with stars at the side, no longer feel tired. Straight away *gambling mode on. On the way, she was telling us how to bet, what to do when win, what to do when lose. Then I said ok ok.. No problem. I asked her, got wear red pantie boh? She said no. Then I said haiya…how to win like dat.. No Ong la!!!

On the way saw this building which looks like bottle, the tour guide told us that the building was build with a feng shui purpose. To ‘Ong’ the company. In Macau you will get to see a lot of nice and weird building because its all about feng shui and all gambling area where Chinese believe.

The tour guide bring us to the biggest Casino, Hotel and Shopping area in Macau which is ‘The Venetians’. All in one area. You can gamble and you can shop and you can stay The pricing in the mall is not cheap even for food. Its like Genting, when you go up there everything increase in price.

But I was totally impress at the place, they had make it a mini Venice in there. The sky on top is fake but it looks bloody real. The sky color changes accordingly to outside. If its cloudy outside then it’s the same in here.

They had a lot of performance in Italian style exactly you are in Venice. Singing, street performing really an eye catching mall. Looks very plain from the building outside but once you step inside, its another world. It was weekend and the place is full of ppl especially the casino.

This is how it looks like with the sky on top. Does it look real like you are outside?

One of the main area and this is the south gate if I am not mistaken. After taking some basic pic, all my friends are ready to go in and gamble. Lai Lai lai..huat ah…Then I told them I do not wan to follow them, I want to walk around, taking pics and do some shopping. So left a few person with me as the Malay cant go in so I am with them.

I told my Malay friends, see now they go in so excited. Ask them they must see the after effect which is I told them, if you see they all talk very happily and come out excited means the win. If the come out look very tired and speechless means the lose. Of course I hope them they win cuz my share is in there.

Then I make my mark in the toilet by taking my very own sweet time baking my hot chocolate cakes. When I was sitting in there, I knock on the toilet door, it was a solid sound on it and the thought in my mind how nice if I can steal this door and sell it.

This is the boat that they use to take the tourist or the passenger around the mall and the guy that row the boat will sing all the way. Forgot to take that pic with the guy in it.

One of the shop that I came across which find it pretty interesting is, by knowing that how crazee of the people to Hello Kitty, there is actually the whole shop selling the items. Its very nice. Should check this out.

This is the human statue. They are so proffesional till that no matter how or what kind of reaction you did to them they wont laugh, unless you use your finger to poke them. The catch is you put money he will dance for bout 30 sec then stop.
In this pic he close his eyes what right, how to catch he open his eyes is you stuck your hand towards the money area, then he will suddenly stare at you. Damm geng.. He also can know~!
Camwhore around the shopping mall.
One of the coffee area.
Inside the mall walkway.
For all the Man U fans out there, please do not miss this shop. Its a very huge shoopppp with all Man U items.
After this place, we head back to the pier around 4.30 pm to catch our 5 pm boat and head to Avenue of stars~

Last week I watched the movie Bolt when it got release. watched with the 3-D version..The glasses are so cool.
Now i believe pixar is moving into the direction of 3-D animation with most of their upcoming movie are available in 2 versions. 2-D and 3-D with all their preview in 3-D version which is pretty cool. This picture the quality of the colours are so fine and so nice.
For this movie, i would only recommend to watch in 2-D version as there is not much special effects that you can see in 3-D version yet it is kinda pricy for 3-D version. which is RM18 for 1 ticket. Still think its nicer with the Journey to the Center Earth in 3-D version. with the piranas flying around, lava, the bird.
Hamster a.k.a Rhino
Definately the movie is enjoying, its the dog which is so naif that he actually believe that he was the real superhero to protect that girl(Penny) and definately i find the cutest is the Hamster a.k.a Rhino..’ka ching’ lol~
If you are a animation lover, this show would be worth a watch.
— Tik Ching, Pass, Stamped —

Overall I personally rate this movie in 3-D version – 3/5

— The movie rated by me is by my own personal preference. Watch it at your own risk —
