Heineken Thirst 2012 @ Sepang

09/01/2013 No Comments

*OMG! I totally forgot to click post on this blog post. . :d Here you go . . Heineken

One of the party I am looking forward before end of 2012 is this Heineken Thirst 2012 that is being held at Sepang. It was a hectic day for me that I have to work in the early morning, attending wedding dinner at night then quickly cabut from the dinner head to this massive party and the saddest part is I have to work early the next morning. I reach pretty late about 11pm and the carpark is super full till I park at the highway and walk in. It looks near but I think I walk about 1km into the party zone.

Along the way you can see many people selling drinks, beers and party pack . .

Hardworking people at work yet they are friendly . .

Once and forall, one way ticket to party till you drop. . .

when I reach the main scene, I am totally speechless, as I never know the 3 neon tree is going to be there, as what I read in the press release. I rate it as their trademark for Thirst party.

Its divided into 2 zone, this is the second zone Star Arena and who is spinning here :

Justice

Gesaffelstein

Brodinski

LapSap

Jee Hoe & Hypeembeats

Nick Haydez

Justice was the finale DJ that spin at the peak hour .. Love his music. . .

Then walk over to Main Stage, I got blast away with the huge crowd. I never knew this rave was so well accepted and its so pack.

Then head to our VIP terrace for our entry.

Above and Beyond was spinning at that time and I love the stage. Below are the video that I have capture and enjoy~

At VIP area see who is there, most of the bloggers Simon, Jackie, Anna, Benjamin, Yatz, Joshua and many more. .

Great party like that how can we not to have Heineken on our hand. We ended up buy quite alot of beer that night.

Here is the tower .. . to keep the night going at first pit stop. . .

For VIP tickets we are entitle for 4 cans of Heineken.

AT the bar area or purchase counter

Come, mali mali partieeeeee !~!~!~

Head back to the floor to see the rest of the siau kia’s Fred and Anna’s Gang. . .

My sister decided to join the crowd too last minute. . 😀

As more and more drinks are flowing down, more and more pattern are showing up, with party like a rock star. . . Flying without wings. .

And the interval begins, with countdown of the DJ that many of my friends are looking forward for Avicii.

Then as I was walking every where, then bump into my PG friends.. cool~

let the finale section begin with the most inticipated DJ coming out, AVICII. . . . check out the video below how he pump the beat to blast every one away. . .

Its just amazing!

This is what I mean flying without wingz and see, please don drink that much and end up being capture in here. . .wakkaka . .

Guess who is in da house, Ashleigh and Pin Pin . . keke

One good thing in this event as they never let you go hunger, as they have smoking zone, first aid area and Food tent for you to refuel your stomach then go party hard.

The party ended up with a 5 mins fireworks.

I must say, this is one of the best RAVE I have ever attended in Malaysia, and I am happy that its now up to that standard. Heineken Thirst in year 2012 is really a party that will be kept in my list as the best~ Those that miss out? don be sad as I believe Thirst 2013 will be even much better as they have raise the bar to such high standard now.

Read the following day on the Press release, they have a huge strong crowd of 25,000. Thumbs up!

Ti Chen Chinese Restaurant @ Saujana Golf & Country Club

22/11/2012 No Comments

I have been to Saujana Hotel for a few occasions from Wedding dinner, events and review and neither did I know hidden this new refurbish Chinese restaurant Ti Chen is actually hidden inside the Golf Club House itself. Hosting many private functions since its opening after the face lift, celebrations for it is not only once but twice this time around reintroducing their newly refurbished Chinese restaurant, Ti Chen back into the market.

With its rich red and black tones adorning the walls and furniture of this oriental eatery, Ti Chen has a lot more to offer. Assisting Ti Chen in retaining its stature and reputation are two new chefs, Chef Lai Chong Seng and Dim Sum Chef Yau Kim Yew.

I love the new ambiance of this restaurant, not only love at first sight as its a total dimension from the exterior out from this restaurant as you walk in you are flank with the modern Chinese yet with classic touch of it. A simple concept that you can blend in comfortably . .

The restaurant can be divided into many sections, even for private dining that they do have huge wooden panel to block it off, unique of all they have see thru curtain to make it more elegant and separation between rooms.

Since its refurbishment, had attracted many wedding dinner to be hosted here that can easily fill maximum 25-30 tables.

Staging with Chinese lantern make up the ambiance even better.

A simple conversation flow between the manager and the rest of us then we are greeted with chef signature dish, coming up with Roasted Duck and Mandarin Orange Salad with Wafu Dressing.

Carefully chop duck meat with slightly crispy skin along top with some sesame seed along with wafu dressing make it a simple dish along with lots of greens with fragrant to start off with.

Steamed Cod with Preserved Radish. Cod is nicely cut into a slab, then sitting on top of bean spout, as chef creation to make this dish a slight cripsy when you eat along with bean sprout. I always love this simple dish with soy base.

Top dish in my list for the night is Prawn and Scallop with Green Ginger Puree. Purer are place on top of the scallop then steam along that make the taste blend in very well and freshness of both succulent prawn and scallop just make it awesome. Chewy texture from both seafood, seafood will make this dish pair very well with rice.

Appear next is Homemade Beancurd with Crab Meat and Pumpkin Puree. Creamy pumpkin flooding the whole plate with fresh crab meat, Shimeji mushroom and edamame that top along with deep fried tofu below is something many people would go for unless they do not take beancurd.

With a few dishes being serve, comes along Special Wok Fried Rice with Tobiko and Crispy Beancurd Skin is one of my favourite too. Filled with wok hei and every mouthfull is fill with slight burst of tobiko make it a perfect dish yet pair along the the dishes above is just perfect. Good enough to be satisfied.

The dinner ended in satisfaction when Sea Bird’s Nest with Aloe Vera in Longan Syrup is serve upon. First time learning this new fact that the marine plant is rich in enzyme nutrients, collagen and mineral substances, calcium, magnesium, iron, potassium, phosphorus, sodium and multitude fibers and jelly form proteins. It has to be cook in this way to preserve the mineral of it. Texture is chewy with slightly crunchy. Refreshing sweetness of the soup base from longan make it a satisfying ending.

Then we only found out that Chef Lai is from Penang, instantly the whole conversation converted to Hokkien. Its just a switch of language when usually found out kaki lang. :p Chef Lai with his vast experience of 19 years and overseas then found himself establishing in Cantonese and Szechuan cuisine, and wonders of taste he can do with Chinese food without using pork.

Besides that, also found out that Chef Lai is good in cooking homecook meal with his collection of recepies along the way.

Grand Hibiscus Ballroom Media Tour @ Swiss Garden Hotel, KL

02/04/2010 No Comments

Last year it had been a crazy year as got bombarded by lots of ‘red bomb’(red invitation card for Chinese means wedding dinner) for some of my friend had decided to settle down with their loves one, I particularly got like every week 1 card since beginning of December till end of January. If just by attending all, I would just need to fill in a form and declare broke. Usually the food in the wedding dinner would not be so good and it always depends on which hotel or caterer and its a good news for couples planing to host wedding this year, certainly this would be a option.

It was not until few days ago, got an opportunity to take a glimpse at Grand Hibiscus Ballroom media tour that organize by Swiss Garden Hotel and also a chance to taste on their wedding package menu.

The ballroom is brand new that was just opened recently, and manages to host around 5 wedding dinner in such a modern design ballroom.

Every couple will demand for the design of their wedding hall, and to make the choice easy, Swiss Garden had a proffesional in house wedding planner to assist the couple to cater for their demand yet they also do have certain package and theme to go along for the night.

The wedding dinner that was just hosted the night before that the newly wed’s chose the theme of Lavender, which signifies calm and peacefull. Besides this, there are a few other theme such as, Rose, IRIS, Jasmine and a few more.

The whole ballroom and lighting will be decorated among the theme as the main colour for Lavender is light purple. I just love their modern design with a touch of nature with some of the wall lighting are flower’s design, so do the carpet. The ceiling colour will be set according to the theme too.

The table cloth and settings are set accordingly to the theme.

This is media review for the dishes of the night that the package ranges from RM750++ – RM1450++ per table.

‘An Infusion of Hot and Cold Combination’ was the first dish of the night.

It was fried very crispy on the outside till you feel like you are eating crackers and inside is filled with shirmp.

‘The japanese Octopus which is fresh and juicy, Fried Wan Tan and Fried Egg with Shark Fin and Egg Roe’

‘Braised Shark’s Fin Soup with Crab Meat and Crab Roe’

As I would rate one of the best, love the starchy salty taste and with vinegar in dark maroon colour add on it, just pull out the taste of the pot cook aroma. The sharkin added in was genuine and top grade, that every sip we can taste the slices and the crab roe added in can just feel the rocky solid and a bit salty. Makes me remember the first bowl of shark fin when I try when I was young.

‘Kwai Fei Chicken’ something that look and taste very simple but had been cook to the best, the soup base taste is very mild, with Chinese wine, a bit of Chinese herbs, a bit salty taste in it and the chicken meat had been steam and cook to its juiciest and soft meat.

‘Red Garoupa “Yin Yong” Style’

This fish is one of the best dish with its meat so juicy and tender as the chef mention had used 8 hours of marination. Imagine it the succulent taste.

If you are a cheese lover, the meat had been dough and marinates well to stuff the cheese in it and fried under hot oil till it was golden brown and the cheese just melt. This is what we call Chinese version of Stuff crust pizza. It taste awesome and we had not enough of it.

‘Wok Fried Tiger Prawns “Yin Yeong” Style’

Salad mayonnaise prawn is rich in taste, not that creamy which suits the taste of old people with high cholesterol that the meat is chewy and fresh.

My preferred choice, as when I we took picture of this, the smell of the fried Nestum had just makes me put want to eat it instantly. It was fried till the aroma came out and its crispy to eat along with the prawn.

‘Braised Abalone, Sea Cucumber and Black Mushroom with Broccoli’. The first thing that came into my mind was the abalone that had been cut into cubes shows the sign of big abalone and the chef use ‘2 head abalone’ that been boil, steam and marinate with its gravy for a few hours that makes it so soft, juicy and chewy. The soup base is top notch!

‘Salted Egg Fried Rice’ fried with wok hei and the salted egg had just pull out the aroma and eat it with sambal, taste perfect.

‘Pastry Duets’

‘Double Boiled Shark’s Fin Melon with White Fungus and Honey Dates’

Which is something new to me, as one of the type melon that had been finely chop till it look like shark fin. Then cook under high temperature to get the sweetness of it out and mix with the rest of the ingredient that end me with 3 bowl of it.

The wedding dinner set menu certainly serves great quality of food that I would say with a classic touch in a modern feel. The Chinese dish taste is very authentic as what I feel. If wedding dinner with this kind of serving, surely it would make the wedding even more perfect.

Wedding Cakes by Sunny Yaw to Kelly & Matt @ Parkroyal Hotel, Batu Ferringi

17/01/2010 No Comments

Since this 2 months is all about wedding season so I take this opportunity to blog about this as it was on my previous long holiday back at Penang and that is when I got a chance to tag along with Sunny to deliver his cake to the client for his wedding cake. To my surprise, I never thought that the wedding cake could weigh so heavy that easily weigh around 9-12kgs as I always thought that the top layer would be the original and the bottom layer is all dummies that proves me wrong on this wedding cakes until I lifted it myself.

Helping out Sunny to do the delivery as the cake is place on my lap and have to take a good care of it during the journey to Parkroyal at Batu Ferringi. When I reach, I was bombshell that it was actually a garden style wedding dinner instead in a ballroom that I have not attend one in actual before.

It would actually be a girls dream to have a garden style wedding, perfectly setting up garden style with outdoor atmosphere that located next to the seaside, with sea breeze blowing and the smell of the salty sea.

The lovely board that show the seating of all the invited guest which pair with the theme of that place.

This is what I mean with garden style wedding dinner concept.

The seating arrangement of the newly wed and all their fellows parents will be seated in this area facing all the crowd. Feels like one of the part in Hollywood movie.

I just love how the tables got set up with lovely Chinese fusion influence with the guest name all on the table with a pair of chopsticks as their souvenir.

Yet you are enjoying the rest of the night with nice char grill, bbq, and buffet style dinner.

With the invited singers that singing slow ballet songs on the background yet we get a chance to talk with every one on the table with some windy sea breeze yet if you don like it here, you can walk to the sea side or pool side.

Popping your champagne with a blast …

Cutting the cake by Sunny Yaw with the white wedding cake with something relates to home, she wanted flowers and have the seal on the cake that had requested by Kelly.

Yet amazing natural portrait photo shoot that will capture the happy moments of every one at such a nice environment is absolutely memorable.

The photoshoot of both the families.

Yet I want to congrats to the newly wed Kelly & Matt.

That few years from that, their families will grow and kids will be as cute as this little girl.

and wish their moments will last forever and lovely yet to capture another portrait again 30 years down the road as their child get married.

Yishensu, A Vegetarian Connoisseur @ 1-Utama

19/10/2009 No Comments

Now is the Vegetarian season and in KL to do that is really a pain in the ass, that’s why I have hold up this posting and decided to posting around this time. I have to thanks to Sidney (BigBoysOven) for the invites. If its not him, then would not have known this shop.

This shop is currently managing by the daughter and the mom is responsible on most of the dishes. All their ingredient are very pure and some are important from a few countries.

Renovated with very nice and cozy interior that really suits on what they are serving.

A variety of food you can get there which is the same as the normal menu in any restaurant but its just that in vegetarian form.

The aroma of the dish was flying around the area and it smells good. Can’t wait to eat it. The food presentation is like the wedding dinner set. If I am not mistaken, this is the ‘Combination Platter’. A dish that you would not want to miss.

I like this the most, ‘Vegetarian Baked Bacon’ very chewy and abit crispy, the sauce that topping on top is a kick on your taste bud. Once eaten, it just cant stop cuz its taste very the same.

‘Shark Fin Egg’ well fried with ‘wok hei’ yet the structure is very similar and you will wonder how they make it till it taste so good.

‘Cuttle Fish with Satay Sauce’ chewy and springy texture, enjoying every bite of it with very fragrance satay sauce top on top.

Deep fried till the outer layer is crispy and preserving the softness of the prawns in it. The own made mayo had make it a great combination taste will be the ‘Golden Prawn Mayo’.

‘Ginseng and Turnip Soup’ taste like home cook, deliciously finish the whole bowl till the very last drop.

‘Toufu Topped with Preserve Vegetable’ salty enough yet mix well with the taste of the toufu.

‘Mixed Veggie’ a perfect fried of vegetable that the lotus root is abit crispy and the aroma of the nuts jus sunk in make it a good dish that you would not want to miss.

‘Sizzling Spicy Fish’ Sizzling hot plate with the gravy pour upon still boiling and the sauce taste so good that it had mix well with the fish. The homemade gravy is one of the signature in there. Anything that with this gravy, it’s a good try.

‘Stir Fried Prawns in Sweet and Sour Sauce with Man Tou’. Man tou was friend to perfection as expected the crust is crispy yet inside is very soft. Makes it a great couple. As we tried out the prawns, we could not believe the texture of it. Taste so similiar with springy feeling.

‘Terriyaki Mock Duck with Scramble Eggs’. Love the terriyaki sauce that brings up along the aroma of the vegetarian duck meat. If I were to go there for lunch, this would be a great order.

We enjoy the whole vegetarian meal is a good experience yet the food there is first class yet their price is very reasonable as you can see in the menu. Since now is the season, and having a headache where to find one nice Vegetarian Restaurant, this restaurant is highly recommended.
