Outing with Foong Ching, Tracy & new found friend, Apple

Yesterday was a fun day. I was out almost the whole day. Where did I go? I went to Midvalley. Woke up at 9.25am so that I won't be late for my appointment with Foong Ching. We decided to meet in college. I had no time for a full breakfast at home before I left. So, dad bought me an egg sandwich which I munched along the way. It was probably the most delicious egg sandwich I have tasted. Others found in other places like some stalls selling Nasi Lemak and other less popular bakeries have little taste and insufficient eggs, butter and mayonaise.

Since it was Labour and Wesak Day, the whole of Leisure Commerce Square was deserted. I managed to see Foong Ching's mum. Finally i know how she looks like. Well, i was just curious.

We boarded a train to Midvalley from Setia Jaya station. We waited so long for the train to Midvalley at KL Central. But i was able to pick up a few chinese words from Foong Ching. We didn't waste our time! So, you can imagine how many people crowded the station by the time the train arrived. So many people in a hurry to board the train. All impatient. At the same time, people were also coming out. Afraid that the door will close anytime. I told Foong Ching that we might have needed to take another train but haha we didn't have too because we managed to squeeze in. LOL.

So many patrons queuing up with anticipation to purchase the tickets for Spiderman 3. It's normal because it was the first day on screen. Suddenly, an announcer said that all the tickets for all the shows until 6pm were fully sold out! How about the other shows until midnight? Only two rows from the screen were available. Haih... We were a little disapointed for awhile. But just a little only. There is always a next time. We planned to watch it this Friday or weekend.

What to do since there was no movie to watch? Shop for Foong Chings's dad's birthday gift and window shopping! She wanted to get a Golden Oldies CD. I was there to help but I knew too little about Golden Oldies. She didn't know her dad's liking too. We went to Rock Corner, Tower Records and Jusco. Anyway, Foong Ching's mum suggested handkerchief. She bought a three in one cotton hanky from Jusco.

I was really looking forward to the dinner with Tracy and her friend. She thought of Porridge Steamboat. Sounds yummy! But, she was late. So, we went for more window shopping. Tried on sunglasses for fun. It is true that the bigger the sunglasses are, the nicer you will look. I like purple, pink, brown, grey and black ones. As we decided to walk out of Jusco, I turned back to look at some hair accessories. Sparkling diamonds and marvelous designs made my eyes blink! haha. And, they were so cheap! Usually, these type of hair clips are about RM 40 - 50. But they were having a promotion. So HAPPY! I bought one for RM 15 only!

The porridge steamboat was too expensive. RM 39.90 per head!! Not suitable for students like us. Then, Tracy took us to Talipon restaurant. WOW. She knows so many places to eat. Salute you, gal!

Awesome food there for RM 18.80 per head. It was a buffet! I didn't know until I arrived there. What is special is that it is not only steamboat with soup base but there is a hot plate surrounding the pot. This is meant to fry food. Mostly those marinated fish, prawns, beef, chicken etc. Actually, anything is also possible! If you want to fry the fishballs or ham, do it! (like what I did ^^) How about the oil? Butter is used as the oil! Since the hot plate is so hot, the butter melts immediately after u put it there.

We ate a lot!! I ate so much yesterday because it was a buffet. I was the one who took the most food. But we shared of course. Fishballs, fish noodles, ham, sausages, button mushrooms, crabs, crabmeat, taufu, vegetables, Bawal fish and more! Oh! I forgot. Ice cream too! Yeah. They also have ice-cream, cakes, fruits and jellies! In conclusion, I think it is reasonable. I'm going to bring my family and friends there. And, the good news is there is one branch in Kelana Jaya! Makes things much easier.

Foong Ching :)

Looks a bit like a black & white photo ;) Never
had one before. I'm happy with it...

I'm definitely looking forward to my next outing with Tracy & Foong Ching. I want to see Apple again too! I think we will play badminton the next time!

That's all, people...
