11th March, we went to my sister – Jamie Lioh’s campsite to pick her up as she has finished her 3 months National Service. That also explains the crepe post that I blogged a few days ago, as the crepe was meant to celebrate her homecoming. She’s now a certified “Anak Emas Malaysia”.

She totally enjoyed it, from day 1 until the last day. Each time she opens her mouth, she would be talking about her NS experience. So, it was a blast and a wonderful experience for her, I guess.

On the other hand, my sister got 8A’s and 4B’s for her SPM result. Obviously, the standard has dropped. –blek-

As you didn’t notice, I have changed my template too.

Grey and monotone colour based theme. Again, it is my personal designer – Ah Nee who came up with the design, so all credit goes to her. As for the header, from the top left are Adeline, Chun Kit, Jamie, middle are yours truly, Ah Nee, Jinlan and bottom are Suet Lei, Ah Nee (again?), Pei San and Chee Yong. What do you think about the new template? Any feedbacks?

Some correction for the post – “All The Way From Japan – Mille Crepe“, according to my dad, the cake shop’s name is “Nadeje Patisserie” and it is their marketing trick that it looks like a “S”. It is also not a French word but Czech, which means, “hope”. Now, how does a cake, from Japan, with a Czech name, ended up in Malaysia? –ponders-

Sis’s housemate and my ex-roommate, Chris (Kampungkai) after looking at the pictures I posted the other day…

Both said the same thing, “Why your lips so red one? Macam applied lipsticks like that.”

-sweats-

Last night, I took a pictures of my lips and…

OMFGWTFBBQ! So reddish and purplish! Its like my lips got bitten by something poisonous and it went swollen and… and… and…

-faints-

I tried drinking lots of water, nearly 2-3 liters per day but it doesn’t help. Maybe my body is way too heaty? Or am I 发热气-ing? Who wants to boil herbal tea for me? -sobs-

We went out “yamcha” last night until 4AM and snapped a few pictures (with my N70) of Alexander crapping his ideal wedding. He said he wants 50 BMWs to pick up his wife, a wedding as grand as possible, the wedding gown is a mini skirt instead of those long skirt, all white wedding……

I finally met Jinlan in person!

Yes, after being FFK-ed for 3 times. (She should feel guilty about this. –grins-) Oh, you don’t know who is Jinlan? She a.k.a JiNz is one of the beautiful bloggers that I have ever met in blogsphere and I have featured her in my blog twice (Click here and here.).

I was walking towards Jinlan’s apartment when she was standing outside waiting for me. The anxiousness, excitement and nervousness were flowing like a high-speed bullet in my blood veins. After all, I have been chatting, crapping and “teh”-ing with her for the past… 1,2,3… 6 months.

“Jie 姐…” as I greeted her like I always do in IMs.

Since she wasn’t ready, she asked me to help myself while she continued with her stuffs. She and her sister – Jinwern’s photo were all over the little notice board on the wall. Obviously, both are self-centered infected with “cam whoring sickness” girls. (I took a picture of her workstation but she deleted it. –frowns-)

We went to Pyramid’s Manhattan Fish Market for our dinner and ordered a set of seafood platters. It is meant for sharing and has 5 prawns, 2 spoonfuls of squids, one big piece of fish, some fried oysters / mussels, fries and rice. Everything was good, especially the rice, tasty and fragrant. Yummy-licious. But why their drinks come in such small glasses, I finished them even before the food arrived. –sweat-

JiNz cam whored with my N70 throughout the dinner. –sweat-

Sis paid the dinner (Thanks, sis!) and we went to Halo Café for a drink. We chatted about food, holidays, academic stuffs (She is my senior, 1 batch earlier only.), tooth, family, and etc. There were moments of silence as well, when both of us didn’t know what to chat about. But, it wasn’t that bad until we were like having dinner/drinks alone.

It was almost 10 when we left Pyramid for Cyberjaya, as I needed to be in KLIA at 10:45PM to pick up my parents and my 2 sisters who went for a without-me-family trip to Jakarta.

Thanks a lot, sis for the dinner and the wonderful evening. It was my pleasure to have dinner with you and to meet you in person too. So, when is our next appointment? -looking forward-

I know I look darn ugly in those photos, like “Beauty and the Beast”, don’t rub it in. -glares-

Jason says :

“Actually, sis is super photogenic. When I saw her the first time, the first thing that came through my mind was short not very tall. She’s not fat at all, in fact, I consider that slim and slightly towards the not-chubby-at-all and cute type. Fair skin and seriously, nice hourglass body figure. –drools-

Although she photoshopped her pictures, she does look almost, or about 95% (-5% because her photos made me felt like she is very tall.) just like the photos. She looks drop dead gorgeous and pretty in photo and real life. However, seeing her in real life and through photos / camera lens are 2 different things. It gives 2 different feels. I don’t know how to say it, but when I look at her face-to-face and look at her through my N70 or her digital camera, both have different feels. Meet her in person and perhaps you might get what I am trying to say.

In fact, I do think she is more beautiful than Ah Nee. (Am I looking for trouble?)

Wait, did I mention that she walks like a model, darn stylish and sexy lah! -coughs- (Video has been taken down as it was meant for early birds only. -wink-)

Note : Please read “The Downfall of Nadeje Patisserie” before you proceed to avoid any disappointment.

In my previous post, you have seen this picture…

The shop’s name is “Nadese Patisserie”, which I believe is a French word. Perhaps David of Narrowband can enlighten us on how to pronounce the word. He took French before what! –blek-

The shop is so small that I need to circle the area twice before I managed to find it. Upon stepping inside, there were no tables or chairs inside and just a small section for decoration purpose.

Why? Because it is a cake shop that sells 1 (ONE, SATU, 一) type of cake ONLY. Yes, a cake shop that sells only 1 type of cake.

I repeat : A CAKE SHOP THAT SELLS ONLY 1 TYPE OF CAKE!

They sure have big balls lots of confidence to run their business in such a way. I only saw this cake displayed in their display unit cum fridge. They were about 7 pieces on display, with 3 being reserved and remaining 4 for sale. I tried to look for their menu, who knows, their other flavour cakes have to be special ordered or something like that. But, I couldn’t find any.

The cake is called Mille Crepe. Crepe, according to Word Web, it means small and very thin pancake. At the price of RM6.50 per piece, it is even more expensive than Secret Recipe’s (RM5.60). This cake’s origin is Japan. How it ended up in Malaysia, I have freaking no idea. Actually I do know, but lets skip that part. Take note that all the ingredients, even the paper foil is imported from Japan. (According to the shop owner and magazine interview, that is.)

The cake actually consists of 19 to 20 slices of cream and “pancake”. As in, first layer of crust, then followed by a layer of cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust, then cream, then crust… Phew!

When you put it inside your mouth, immediately, you can feel the thousand layers texture. Like Ah Nee always like to say, “很有质感!” Soft and thin crust, sandwiched with milky cream, and the thousand layers texture feeling that melts inside your mouth, it is definitely a hero among all heroes (蛋糕中的英雄豪杰). However, due to the cream, you will avoid having another piece, not to mention it is very filling as well. Therefore, it is best served as desserts or during tea time.

As far as I know, this is the only shop that sells this cake in the whole Malaysia. So, if you want to eat this, you have to come to Malacca. 1kg costs RM45 while 1 piece costs RM6.50; it is worth a try especially if you like creamy stuffs like this one. It has cheese, original and strawberry coated flavour, but I only saw original flavour the other day.

So, another reason for you to come to Malacca for holiday other than Asam Pedas, Beef Soup, Satay Celup, Chicken Rice Ball, Chendol and ……

P/S : I am running out of Malacca’s delicacy to write already.

I was on my way to town to get a cake that my father personally requested me to buy for my sister, Jamie Lioh. Nope, it wasn’t her birthday but it was the day she was released from prison finished her 3 months national service camp.

P/S : More on that later… I forgot to copy the photos from my dad’s notebook to my pen drive before I came back to Malacca. Sign of old age… Forgive me.

Back to the story…

I was driving and there were 2 little birds flying not too far in front of me. Say, less than 5 meters? Imagine the picture below is your view inside the car. The orange / skin colour dot is bird #1 and shitty green colour dot is bird #2. The remaining dots were the path I supposed the bird wanted to take.

As my car was moving at the speed of 70km/h, bird #2 made a terrible mistake by flying not only LOWER but also SLOWER. Thus, out of a sudden, I heard a sound “THUMP”… and I saw this, right in front of my eyes.

I was amazed and then I laughed. Immediately, I took out my N70 and snapped pictures. Talk about handy digital camera. –grins- I was so afraid that the bird would die just like that! Who knows, maybe the bird is infected with bird flu, right? I look at it carefully and saw the bird was still blinking its eyes.

The bird passed out! ROTFLMAO!

After about 10 minutes, the bird stood up and was slowly recovering its sense of direction, or maybe blur-ness.

The bird stood there for another 10 minutes. Upon reaching the cake shop, the bird flew away. When it spread its wings, it was a little off balance, sort of lost control and after 3-4 seconds in the air, it was flying gracefully again. (Cake shop means another food post will be coming up. –wink-)

Phew!

Safe journey, little bird!

On the other hand…

My family has gone for another family holiday to Jakarta, Indonesia without me again. It was only 2 months ago when they went to Bangkok and Phuket, also without me! Seriously, I am disappointed and fucking pissed!

Side note : Although being a weight watcher is not an easy task , a simple diet plan that fits well with your life style is a good way to enjoy all the goodies like bird pies and pan cakes while maintaining your ideal shape. Although some diet pills act very fast on the excess of body fat (buy adipex) from all over the body, abs diet is the most widely adopted way to get a flat tummy. Although atkins diet is very good at loosing body weight by avoiding carbohydrates, it does not allow for controlled shape maintenance as does the abs diet.
