Kuih, my favorite. I like most of them. Every time when I go to the kuih’s stall, I cannot help myself but buy all kind of kuih. However, I only can choose some of them because I will not able to finish them. If possible, I would like to buy all of them! Hahaha.

OK, It’s Kuih time!

Do you know what is the name of this kuih? I called it “Bomb” or “Zha Tan”. Hahaha, of course it’s not the correct name. By the way, do you want to know what is the filling inside?

Here you go…. It’s peanuts.

Want to eat the kuih? The first one who comment and correctly name all the kuih will have the chance to eat them! Yes, I will treat you! Siapa cepat, dia dapat! ๐Ÿ™‚

Today is my best friend’s birthday. I want to wish him Happy Birthday. Why I wish him Happy Birthday on this post? Of course I have the meaning. This Rasa Sayang Buffet is actually his Birthday Dinner from my another best friend.

Normally, 3 of us (Jiin Ling, Boon Huat and I) will go out to have dinner during our birthday. Although it’s not on the main day, we will try to arrange it. This job is normally done by the one and only Jiin Ling. She is the coordinator for our outing. She needs to call our big boss (yes, we call our friend big boss because he is very busy with his job) and me to make an appointment. After both of us are OK on the date, only confirmation will be made. Not forget to mention, she is also our driver. I will drive to her house and she will then go fetch him at his place.

We have this dinner on 5 April, Saturday, 16 days earlier than his birthday. Jiin Ling made the decision to go for Rasa Sayang Buffet. She has the discount card. Although it’s a 25% discount, it’s not cheap!!! To me, it’s very expensive! I am not sure when will be the next time for me to go again. The price is RM132++ per person!!! Cheap? Expensive? What do you think?

OK, main purpose of this post is to show you all the food there. There are a large varieties of food for you to choose from. The setting and the environment on the food corner are great! The food is fantastic! Very very yummy and nice! I eat quite a number of lobsters, prawns, fish, Oysters and many many more!!! Let’s don’t talk so much, let me see you all the food photos.

I only have one thing to regret for. I should have taken as much photos as I can but I didn’t. Too bad. I hope I will have the chance to go again and take all the photos!

I’m the one who always go and eat. Both of them are the one who always treat me. I’m so pai seh some times. Haha, some times only. Who asked I’m the one with less $$$ among 3 of us? Wakakakakaka.

Anyway, Thanks to Jiin Ling for treating me this fabulous buffet dinner. Once again, Happy Birthday to our big boss, Boon Huat. Oh, let me help him to advertise here. If you are looking for a Professional Insurance agent, you can look for him. He is the best agent ever. ๐Ÿ™‚

One more thing (hahaha, I’m a bit “cheong hei” for this post), if you never try this buffet, although it’s a bit expensive (actually is very!!!), you need to try it out, at least once in your lifetime! Hahaha.

Overal rating for the food and environment, I will give 5 stars out of 5 stars and Two Thumbs Up!!

I went to have western food with Akira just now. Akira said this restaurant serve a nice western food. Since I never went there, I want to give it a try. The restaurant was located at Tanjung Tokong, beside the Fatty Loh restaurant.

We found ourselves the seat and ordered the drinks. For the food, we need to go and made the order by our own.

Akira brought along his camera and he was busying taking photos non stop while I was looking at the menu, thinking of what to order.

See, got prove one! He was really busy!!!

He even took the photo on the frying pan.

At first, I want to order Hawaiian Chicken. Then Akira asked me whether want to have cheese or not. Just by adding a slice of cheese, Hawaiian Chicken will become Holland Chicken. Hmmmm, it’s so funny to me. Anyway, I ordered Holland Chicken and Akira ordered Chicken Cordon Bleu.

The food was yummy! Very yummy indeed. Akira was kind enough to give me some of his Cordon Bleu. ๐Ÿ™‚ The environment was not bad as well.

Akira was a very nice guy because he thought I was only 2 years older than him. How nice he is! Haha. When I told him my age, he said I didn’t look like it. Oh, should I be happy about this? ๐Ÿ˜€ I treated him this dinner, since he treated me the Kaya Puff previously. Remember the Ipoh Kaya Puff? Akira asked his friend to bought it from Ipoh.

For western food lovers out there, you can try out this restaurant! It’s recommended!

* Some photos are taken from Akira. I didn’t turn on the flash while taking the photos, become not nice. Next time I will try turn it on.

Just after I upgraded, I immediately go to the admin page for my blog. The interface looks great! I like the light blue. Oh, I just like it!

Then, I go to write a new post and test out the multiple photos upload. Problem comes!! ๐Ÿ™ I got the “HTTP error. An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later” while uploading the photo. I tried a few times and it was still the same.


* The screen capture is taken from hongkiat.com.

Then I search this problem in Google, I’m sure there will be solution. I was right! I found the solution from Hong Kiat’s Blog. We need to go to the public_html in the file manager in cpanel. There is a file called .htaccess. Edit and paste the following command into the file.

<IfModule mod_security.c>
<Files async-upload.php>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</Files>
</IfModule>

After the editing, save it. Problem solved! For more detail on this solution, please read it from hongkiat.com

After successfully uploading the photo, I try to upgrade WordPress 2.5 into my another blog. I do the same steps and this time, I got another error on the photo uploading: Specified file failed upload test.

Again, I Google it. It seems like we need to do some editing on 2 files:

wp-admin/includes/media.php, look for line 817, DELETE the coma (,).

814 file_queue_error_handler : fileQueueError,
815 file_dialog_complete_handler : fileDialogComplete,
816
817 debug: false,
debug: false
818 });
819 $(“#flash-browse-button”).bind( “click”, function(){swfu.selectFiles();});
820 });

wp-includes/js/swfupload/handlers.js, look for line 99, the coma (,).

96 jQuery(‘#media-item-‘ + this.id + ‘ .filename’).append(‘ ‘+swfuploadL10n.deleted+’‘).siblings(‘a.toggle’).remove();
97 jQuery(‘#media-item-‘ + this.id).children(‘.describe’).css({backgroundColor:’#fff’}).end()
98 .animate({backgroundColor:’#ffc0c0′}, {queue:false,duration:50})
99 .animate({minHeight:0,height:36,}, 400, null, function(){jQuery(this).children(‘.describe’).remove()})
.animate({minHeight:0,height:36}, 400, null, function(){jQuery(this).children(‘.describe’).remove()})
100 .animate({backgroundColor:’#fff’}, 400)
101 .animate({height:0}, 800, null, function(){jQuery(this).remove();updateMediaForm();});

For my case, I only need to delete the coma (,) in wp-includes/js/swfupload/handlers.js and the issue fixed!

Upgrade to WordPress 2.5 and experience the new features now!

Thanks Hoon for buying this for me!!

I upgraded my blog to WordPress 2.5 this morning. It has been there for some time but I didn’t do the change. Before I did the upgrade, I read about the new feature in version 2.5.

2 features that make me want to upgrade to WordPress 2.5 are: multiple photos can be uploaded at one time and the dashboard interface will be different. The multiple upload is the best change in this latest version. I no longer need to upload my photo one by one. It can save my time.

How to upgrade? Just go to the cpanel for your blog. Click on the Fantastico De Luxe under the Software/Service section. You will find your blog’s name on the left and there is a upgrade to 2.5 link for you to click. After clicking on that, it will ask you to confirm before the upgrading. Once you click, your blog will upgraded to use WordPress 2.5 in few seconds. The upgrade is fast!

Some screen shot from WordPress 2.5.

Now, you are ready to use WordPress 2.5! ๐Ÿ™‚

Most people know about Wikipedia. Wikipedia is like a dictionary to me. Whenever I have some words or anything that I need to look for further info, I will search in the Wikipedia. I get what I want all the time. It really helps!

Now, there is one website called Shop Wiki. From the name, maybe you can roughly guess what is the website for. Shop Wiki is a shopping search engine that combines the Web-crawling technology with consumer-written wiki. Shoppers can just go to the site and search for any item they want, from clothing for kids to car DVD players or even engagement rings. Shop Wiki will crawl to each and every online store and list out the result. Shopper can then compare the item from all the stores and get the one with the lowest price.

Anything you want to buy recently? Start the search from ShopWiki.com.

This is the 3rd time I go to Manhattan Fish Market, if I’m not mistaken. I didn’t plan to go there to have lunch in the first place.

Last 2 times, I don’t need to pay for the food. My friend treat me once and another one is department team building. This time, I ordered Fish n Chip, the cheapest food in the menu, 14.90.

The Fish n Chip served in a big portion, as you can see from the photo below. At first, you will feel the food was nice. But, after you eat for some time, it’s not that nice anymore. I think the portion is too big and it’s too oily.

Is it worth the price? To me, you can get a better Fish n Chip out there with a lower price. I think of the western food in Tanjung Bunga. I think you guys will know which one I’m talking about.

I will cook the instant noodle if I am lazy to go out and buy food.

I think most of the people will know how to cook instant noodle. Some will just eat the noodle with soup. Some will add in a lot of ingredients to make the noodle more yummy. For me, normally I will only add in egg.

The other day, besides egg, I added in 2 sausages. I bought the sausage from Sunshine Square during the sales. The noodle was yummy.

Of course la….. It’s Allen’s Instant Noodle, for sure it was yummy! ๐Ÿ™‚

What I mean by custom Nasi Lemak? Yes, it means that you can choose the dishes you want for your Nasi Lemak.

On Monday morning, when I was on my way going back, I stopped at Jalan Tengah to get my breakfast. I bought the Nasi Lemak since I want to try it. For Nasi Lemak, of course need to have the ikan bilis. To me, Nasi Lemak without the ikan bilis will not be a Nasi Lemak anymore. I got me an egg and a sausage as well.

The Nasi Lemak turn out to be very nice, although it looks not that nice! If you go there one day, please try it. Oh, by the way, this Nasi Lemak is selling by an old Malay couple at the last stall.

I like all types of kuih, Che Ku is one of them. Normally, Ang Ku will be the famous one. Ang Ku is used for praying. I’m not sure the Che Ku is used for what purpose. The only purpose that I can think of is for me to eat! Hahaha.

dsc00484.JPG

During the Cheng Beng, my mum asked me to go buy Ang Ku and Huat Kuih. I saw the Che Ku and I bought one. The filling inside the Che Ku is the coconut and not the “tao ar” in the Ang Ku. Both I also like. What about you?

One of the food that I will order in Super Tanker is the Clay Pot Rice. What is so special about this food? I think will be the clay pot.

dsc00518.JPG

The rice is pre-prepare and put into the clay pot. Then, the cooked chicken will be add it in. Egg will only be added when it’s ready to serve.

Look nice right? I’m also hungry when I see this photo that I took.
