"Remember to Remember"

A Lok-Lok Birthday Soirée!

Oops...
An outdated birthday celebration post. Sorry Yen!

Yen celebrated her 21st birthday at her place on mid-September and what's more endearing is that, she organized a Lok-Lok party! Totally the opposite from shabu-shabu that I reviewed earlier! A soirée to remember, as one of my best pals finally reaching for the key of happiness or bliss!



Booking a lok-lok vendor was indeed a very thoughtful idea; convenient, out-of ordinary and special! Compared to having the lok-loks at night markets, these are much cheaper and somehow yummier! *eating while chatting with a bunch of friends* Chillin' out! They charge RM10 per person. Yen's mom made an order for 50 person and the portions can actually accommodate up to about 70 people's satisfaction :)
Try it! A lok-lok party can be very interesting. *wink*

Before the party starts, AiWei and I hurriedly gather round the van to take pictures! My stomach was already growling while doing that!

We were busy posing while managing our lok-loks!


The fried BeeHoon was fragrant

I love the curry chicken, but somehow over-spiced up.


The Yam Cake and Curry Puffs had my vote! Thumbs up!


Dessert! Cincau quenched and soothed our thirsts! Best taken to fight-off the body heat generated during lok-lok!


From us to Yen! hope she love our gift!

Shabu-Shabu Restaurant @ Bandar Puteri Puchong

My dear friend, Khee...had left for India again. A few days before her departure, we decided to meet up again for her farewell dinner. My girlfriends decided to pay me a visit at my place since it's been quite a long time they ever come to "my territory"! Did some silly camwhoring and girl-talked for a while.... then left for Puchong for our dinner!

AiWei and I was initially contemplating whether to have Shabu-Shabu or head straight to Bumbu Bali. We ended up at the Shabu-Shabu restaurant since Lick insisted that we should give this Japanese steamboat a try.. I've never had any shabu-shabu, so it's kinda new and I wasn't reluctant 'not to try at all'!



Since the last time MeiYen reviewed on this restaurant, and reminded us that there'll be lotsa people, we decided to go there earlier. We managed to choose our places to sit comfortably as there were not many people yet still.... We then saw people swooshing in later while we were eating. Luckily we were here earlier ;P





We optioned for the buffet dinner at RM25 per person. If you can really eat, it's really value for money!! They serve ala carte too, with price as low as RM1 per plate of steamboat dish... but the serving is very small!



This is a Japanese Steamboat restaurant and what's different is that, instead of sharing a pot of broth like we normally do at typical steamboat restaurant, each of us get a pot to cook the dishes ourselves :) Just put in whatever that's available on the conveyor belt and cook! We just put in lotsa vege, pumpkin, tomatoes to make our broth yummier! and.... we had fun doing that!

The dishes served were kinda ordinary... I thought that, what makes it special were only the conveyor belt concept and a pot for yourself. Yet still, I enjoyed it :) We had fun trying each others "soup" See... we still prefer sharing ;P

The sauces served...



With soya sauce, fried shallots, chopped spring onions... what else ya? I still prefer that sauce I had at Bar-B-Q Plaza ;) The chili was good. If it's hotter it'll be better definitely! :)

Let see what we had... yikes! Didn't get to capture everything that I ate.. Was in my pot.. Cooking!

assorted fishballs& crabsticks

Kimchi!! can be added to the soup base, but I ate it just like that. Delicious!


CIMG2935 copy

The dumpling (sui kau)


CIMG2940 copy

This cute little fishball with milk-like or cheesy filling. Love the taste of it :)


CIMG2943 copy

Enoki mushrooms

I love having Oyster Mushrooms a.k.a the abalone mushrooms!


CIMG2944 copy

The sliced pork was tender. Don't cook it for too long ya!


CIMG2942 copy

We made an order for fried dumplings too


The baby octopus tasted just wise


CIMG2947 copy

The fish noodles ;)


CIMG2952 copy

and sausages?? Ok.... thought they would serve Japanese dishes, but it turn out to be dishes of a different origin...


Noodles... looked instant to me.


CIMG2956 copy

I love their fishballs! Bouncy!


CIMG2962 copy

I really have no idea what's this. Yam? Crispy and sweet... not bad at all!

For dessert, we had slush! From the self-service counter, they serve grape and orange slush. Preferred the grape version although it tasted like Ribena to me!




Hope to see you again real soon Khee!!!


my gals


Before leaving......!


Ok. I was really full. We headed back to my place after that and celebrated a one-day-late mooncake festival! The moon was still as round and bright as ever! Hung up lanterns and pictures taking time! Took lots to fascinate!


Chris and I


The incredible 4! Lick ruined it! he's scary!



Friends till the end!

Yuen Garden Dim Sum House @ Puchong

Yohooo!

Exams are finally over! Battling with the exam nerves throughout these few weeks was really not an experience to mesmerize! Really need some 'real' relaxation before getting 'hypertensive' effect again when the results are out....

The holidays that I've been anticipating...
So many back dated posts to catch up!
Kinda bewildered...

I'm so mad with FlickR photo sharing right now! Connectivity way low! can't upload my pics!

Let's focus on food right now! *yikes!* I've gotta eat more! *lose weight already!* Thanks to my Uni!

Decided to have a dim sum breakfast after an early swimming session with Chris, we met his cousins at the Yuen Garden Dim Sum House and we were late ;( So, we didn't get to capture some of the dishes ordered. However, I've still some delicious recommendations!




I just love their portion of Loh Mai Kai (the glutinous rice with chicken). Tasty, the essence of the sauce just penetrate well into the glutinous rice. With tender chicken meat, mushrooms.... Hmm.. Perhaps it's been too long since I last tasted any 'delicious' loh mai kai.




The Steamed Spare Ribs is also a tempting one. Gravy embedded firmly on the pork was flourished with deep aroma :) Not bad... Ok. I'm exaggerating because I was way too hungry after swimming. But yes, it's still well accepted.



Another glutinous rice serving that should be tried, the Loh Mai Fan! Presented beautifully on our table, I can't wait to land my chopsticks on them! Still drooling @_@ worth trying!



What about dim sums? I didn't get to try any as the presence of those evil prawns just shoved me off! Allergy ... I hate you!


Siu Mai was an ordinary one, claimed Chris.


Same goes to the Har Kau.


I suddenly had a powerful desire for Egg Tarts and made an order quickly. When they are served, those cute little mini tarts just grabbed my attention as I preferred having the mini versions lots! Tasted like Tong Kee's definitely!



Well, didn't really like their HK chee cheong fun.. The gravy was kinda sweet and not really up to my liking. Anyone who have tried?



At affordable price, our orders were ranged from RM2.50 - RM3.00.
Tired of having noodles as breakfasts? Check this place out. However, there's one disappointment... Slow service! No doubt that this place is loaded with lots of customers, but we don't really get to try the variety if dim sums offered as we're not served. Most of the times, we have to call out for orders :(

Gonna plan ahead on spending the days fully :) Shall not waste them... my long awaited extended period of recreation!
