Jack's tempat

Another makan post... heehee... yeah, thats what me and my cheemuis like to do - shop and eat and yak yak yak! Muahahahar! Bliss!

This new slaughterhouse we went to is the newly opened Jack's tempat, Sunway Pyramid outlet. Comfy settings, and suprisingly rather deserted on a Sunday noon. Prolly due to the location... Anyways, they do have attentive waitresses. What I had ;

Lobster bisque soup - was mildly disappointed that it didnt meet up to my expectations. Howver, there were some pieces of lobster meat in the soup...

My maincourse - sirloin steak, medium-well done. It were rather alrite - the sauce wasnt oustanding. It did not manage to imprint any impression on me :P

My cheemui had teriyaki chicken - which was SALTY. First time in BOTH our pig lives we ever tasted SALTY teriyaki sauce! I tried my best to convince us that the chef prolly mistaken the salt jar for sugar :P She also complained that the peas served along it were overcooked, where the fries served along mine were overfried... :(

The only dish which appleased us a little is the mango prawns salad...

Which wasnt a total proud praise - as the mango flesh served was only HALF of that mango, and they are experts in choosing SMALL sized mangoes... BUT, it tasted good...

Well, this is one place I dont think I am satisfied with their food. However, they do offer a huge variety of tempting servings. Their quiet settings allow patrons to have pleasant conversations with friends or clients.

This time, I shall rate this place a 3.5 /10 for their food, 5.5 /10 for ambience and 7 /10 for their cuatomer services.

Korean BBQ, Taipan

After the long anticipation, finally, FINALLY get to 'serbu' and 'takhluk' ( well, maybe 'ditakluki' is a better word since we hafta pay for the meal... :P) The shop is located on one of the new buildings in Taipan - faham-faham la... hehehe... On the 2nd floor.

Once we enter the shop, we were quickly escorted into a vacant table. You can choose to sit either in booths, tables or those pseudo-sit-on-the floormat tables. My sexy-legs' cheemui was wearing a short skirt and requested for a booth seat :P

They serve not only Korean BBQ, but also some ready-cooked Korean dishes like bul-go-gi, soops, bim=bim-bap, Korean pancake - the likes. Since its not those buffet kind of BBQ, we had to choose the 'raw' dishes ourselves. Their menu was very patron-friendly as they inserted generously large pictures previewing their servings.

We started off being served with appetisers - included for all patrons wan... The soup was trully appetizing - chinese cabbage stewed in a unique soup, and fresh, finely shredded cabbage dressed in similar-tasting sauce like the soup.

Shortly after, we were bombarded with these tiny servings of Korean side dishes - also included for all patrons. All uniquely pleasant - of course, who can miss the ever popular kimchi?

And their standout quality - they use charcoals for their BBQ instead of those hot plates!

And our order of beef on grill! Muahahahar! The most disappointing part is that we werent involved in the grilling session as the waiters will do the job for you :( boh-syiok leh... And they included halved pips of garlic for fragrance - turned out that those garlics were yummy as well - sweet tasting...


We also ordered their Kimchi-Jiggae soup. Thick broth with generous helpings of kimchi, but lack of other stuff like tofu, meat and glass noodles.

Overall, the food there is good. Free-flow of Tea is served. However, the servings for the beef is rather small. Price wise - not exactly economical - though am alrite for those who like to share meals like me n my chee muis, especially when those many plates of side dishes and appetizers. When you call for the bill, they serve you 'pencuci mulut' of a slice of watermelon each :P

What we dont like aboout this place was their waiters who seems to be very diligent that they cant wait to clear your plates. It seems as if they wanna rush you through your meal. Though the ambience is alright, but it was rather noisy as other patrons too seemed to be very excited and chattered rather loudly.

Overall, I would rate their pricing a 5 / 10 , food 6 / 10 and ambience 5 / 10. Service 4.5 / 10.

Their beef sure draws me back for a second helping though! :)

Anjing Muslim

Fatty Lucky tried on a head scarf... In protest that we doesnt feed him pork :P

Fat Luck : What? Don't I look demure and pretty?
Let you all guess - Bunga apa ni?

Heehee... Cantik anot? On a gloomy morning which threatened to rain, ( tapi tak hujan-hujan pun...) on my way out with me in a drowsy mood having to wake up early for exam and not enough tidur - this caught my attention. I was just so fascinated by it that I must take pictures of it :)


Taadaa...! Its a flower bloomed from a cactus plant! Yup, can you spot the cactus behind the flower? Hehehe... It was soooo beauuuuteeefuuuul! Of course not I tanam wan le - you all know how impatient I am wan... My gila sis punya kerja...

What makes this flower so unique is that it hardly blooms and when it finally did - the flower only opens for ONE day then withers. Ya - you must bela your cactus till old-old baru dia akan berbunga :P

Oh yeah, SP, I managed to catch the flower in its' glory! Muahahahahar!

My first business!

I am so proud to present my 2nd attempt at this bear-bouquet tingy, and what makes it worth the entry here is that - ITS MY FIRST PAID CRAFT WORK !!!!!!


Am so excited la... I've never been paid before for my crafts as I usually make stuff as gifts for my close friends. This time, it took me even less time to complete one as I sort of know how to make liao... heeheehee... And I've gotten so addicted to this new hobby! Can open shop - who wants to invest? :P

So, nice anot? Anyone wanna order from me? I charge cheap-cheap one :P

Clueless Me

Time sure waits for no man - its goin to be August of 2006 liao. Until W@i mentioned it, I too seemed not to be so aware that 2007 is juat 5 months away from ending * sigh*

Its time to start to finalise my major * arghhhh! * This is a very important decision of my life and I'm * gasp * CLUELESS! OMG... Yeah, my degree a bit weird one, Bachelor in Management with a major of our own choice. When I thought its just a studies of management, boy, I was so wrong... I'm soooooo in dilemma now...

Help me. What would you people choose?

  1. Knowledge management
  2. Quality management
  3. Management Science
  4. Leadership
  5. Entrepreneurship

At times, I wonder - Am I in the wrong field? W@i always wonder what happened which deviated me away from the science & medical field. She also thinks I should take Law. ( No, darling, I dont think I have what it takes to be in Law) Close friends thinks that I should have ventured into the creative field. SP thinks I should be in Journalism for my overactive, exaggerate imaginations and my passion to write ( yeah, cos i read so BYK *ahem* books ma... know-lah :P) But most mainly thinks I'm alright in Management since I'm bossy and due to my past experiences in SJAM.

Then again, what do I think? Hey, I should know myself best, right? No, I truly dont, actually.

I guess I've changed so much over the years, I lost touch with my inner self. I dont even know what I want anymore.

One of SP's advice which I held strongly - When you do not know or are not sure of something, you are actually heading the right way. I hope with all my life that its true...
