Cravings for MAGGIE CURRY with eggs

Maybe because i slept too early last night, so i was awake since 2am till now. Since i was tired of sleeping too long, so i will just take a break and share my wonderful day with you guys....

 
 This afternoon, I was actually half way enjoying my Tiramisu trying to relax and enjoy...
 Very tired after a longggg journey back from Cultural Village (mayne i will mention why did i go there on a working day later)..
I received a call. I got a good news... I was happy.
Suddenly i was laughing to myself, like a crazy women kena loteri!
Hahaha.... but i couldn't bring the cat out of the bag yet...
Soon.. soon...





Then, suddenly i had a crave... "I want to eat Maggie Mee with egg!!"
Lol, people must be thinking that im conceived, or what... haha.. Definitely not!!!
So, i called hubby just to make sure that he brings home eggs. Because both of us are not sure whether we still have eggs or not at home. We seldom cook, or seldom eat at home, or seldom never really clear the fridge... LOL

  Fried Drummets with Mayonese...

Hot and spicy soupy MAGGIE CURRY with 2 eggs.... Perfect!!!!

It's 4:27am now... Should be going back to ZZZZzzz... 
Going for my belly dance class tomorrow morning at 9am..

Father's Day Round 2 @ Dong Guan Restaurant

On Sunday we went to Dong Guan Restaurant for Father's Day Dinner..

 
As usual Autumn wants to have her own set of plate and spoon...

We booked a VIP room for ourselves so the children could have their free and easy walk around...
Not much pictures taken as this is a very typical Chinese Restaurant, nothing much to see, except the FOOD....

 Sea Food Chicken Noodles "鸡丝面"

 Cold plate "冷盘"...

 
 Shark Fin's Soup..鱼翅汤

 Pork Leg with Dumpling, everyone was grabbing for the dumpling, not much pork eaten as it was too fatty for everyone else, except for me coz i am the only person enjoying fatty fat meat, everyone else only eat breast meat or not fat meat...

 Butter Prawn and Nestum Prawn, 2 flavours in a plate...
 
  Special Thai styled Fried Chicken..

 Yam Basket, in my mom in law's Must Eat List.....


 Complimentary fruits....

We left early as Autumn had to go to bed. We managed to get the bill and it was about RM350....
Pictures are taken with Blackberry 9700 and Sony Cybershot DSC T-200....

Father's Day Round 1 @ Top Spot Seafood Centre Permata Carpark

Father's Day was last Sunday...
Whenever there is any festival or any celebration day whether father's Day, Mother's Day, Chinese New Year, Christmas, Raya, Gawai, etc it is always the busiest time for me. Firstly, i gotto plan and organize events and promotions. Secondly, i gotto celebrate 2 times, which is usually my family tradition. Normally, i have dinner with my husband side's family on the actual day, while having dinner with my side of family on the eve of the actual day. So, that's 2 rounds...
Last Saturday, i brought my dad and my family to have dinner at Top Spot Seafood Centre Permata Car park. It used to be one of our frequent eating places ages ago, but when it became more towards targeting tourists, and started to slaughter people with their unreasonable price we stopped going there. Since, there are too many other better seafood centre like Bako, Buntal, Sematan, etc. If you don;t feel like driving too far, you can also find nice seafood in the City area like Pending, Batu Lintang, Hui Sing, etc...

I went to Ling Long Stall straight away to choose my prey after we got our table.


The first thing i did was, pick the crabs!! Hmm.. where are the Giant pincers?? 
Ok, about 2 kG, how much? Just to make sure that they don't simply over-charge...

Then, choose some press Prawns, weigh it>> almost 1 KG, enough!


Then.. choose a Fish to steam...

Eee... and get some 1/2 side Clams also.....

Fresh Sugar Cane...

Fresh Coconut

I wanted to order Sugar cane + Coconut but they said "Don;t have! Different stall!"  few year back and now still the same. not innovative!! I wonder why are these people so selfish and don't know how to think far for the business,they can just mix half glass of coconut and half glass of sugar cane, and then come out with a different menu bah! Stubborn!
So, i ordered Coconut Longan in the end.

Father's day Cake

Mom & Dad posing while cutting the cake before the food arrived...

Dad ordered this>> Umai (fresh fish & jelly fish mixed with lime and onions)  
Such a small plate costs RM15??!! Wow, memang Angmo pricing~ anyway, it's father's day bah... so never mind...

This is the Gerai Mahal (Expensive Stall), i won't step near this stall...

Giant Crispy Oyster egg... Favourite!!

"Dou Miao" Sprouts....

I ordered 1/2 shell clams but this is full clams?? reject! Later, they fried another plate of 1/2 shell clams for us..


Fish Lips soup...

Special Tofu.. 

I wonder why every restaurant would cal their tofu as "Signature Tofu", when almost every restaurant cooked the same style?? .....Strategy maybe.

Venison with Ginger and soy sauce...

We wanted to order Bidin with Red Wine but they said no wine here, everything is HALAL, 
so i ordered Bidin Fired with Belacan..

Here comes the Crabs...

Steamed Fish (Silver Pomfret)..

Butter Prawn,  i ordered the wrong cooking method, it should be just as simple as quick steam with salt so the freshness still can be tasted....

Everyone was busy eating....

Pollen, my youngest sis who loves blogging here...
Autumn and Sylvia, my dearest sis who is getting married soon!!
After the 11th dish, we were all blotted, too full to continue.....
and i was like.....

You know what happened to me?? 
My lips started swelling, and there were little rashes around them. So ichy and burning but........ I SANGGUP!!!

Wahahaha... You guys must be thinking that why am a so "Tam- Chiak", I'm a born-to-be seafood lover! I only started to get these types of allergy after i came back from my 9 months stay in KK. Maybe too much of Fresh Tiger Prawns??!! Yeah, we were harvesting those Giant Tiger Prawns, steamed it immediately when they are still alive and jumping...Ate too much of the fresh ones so my body became choosy??? it's only my own Crazy theory... LOL

Everything was perfect, even the total amount was only RM200!! Surpisingly cheap!

However, the management of this Food Centre really needs to look into the Cleanliness & hgiene of this place! Toilet and hand washing sink was extremely dirty!! Worse still when those to throw rubbish also squeeze into the patrons' lift!! Shouldn't there be a "loading/ unloading lift", which is specially for those rubbish and ingredients??
