Serendipity @ Torquay Centre

Today when I was having lunch at Serendipity, I met a middle aged lady who started asking me what I do for a living, and where I did my studies. I felt that was very strange coming from someone I did not know at all. I didn’t want to reveal much, later I found out she was interested in getting [...]

Card Bar @ St Austell

I was supposed to be shopping for a plus size lingerie for my aunt (she was complaining she can’t find them in malaysia), but guess what?? 

I ended up in Card Bar. There are so many different designs, how am I supposed to know which ones she like, and I just feel so weird shopping for lingerie [...]

Chicken and Bacon supreme @ McDonalds

I was working in town centre today. When I was waiting for the bus, I was already thinking what I should have for tea. Tea as in dinner, if you dont know by now, the Brits dont say dinner, they called it Tea. Anyway, I was so tired after work, and the weather was still [...]

Busaba Eathai @ Bond Street, London

Thai food has always been one of my favourites. The other week, when I visited London,  my friend recommended and brought me to this Thai place called Busaba Eathai near Bond Street, London. The place was a little bit too dim for my liking, but food and service were good.
However, you are only allowed to take pictures [...]

Waffles @ A&W, 1 Utama

It’s been such a long time since I had waffles. But I only like the ones from A&W. I know many like it with ice cream? But I prefer the classic flavour – Butter + Syrup (Double). I bought one to sneak in to the cinema awhile ago, but it was a disappointment.

1st they made [...]

Tropical fruits in Malaysia Part 3 – Dragon Fruit

It was the fruit season when I went back home. I really enjoyed the fruits I had when I was home 2 months ago.

I never liked dragon fruit, but now I do. I guess being in a foreign country for too long has taught me not to be picky with my food.

I never knew there was a [...]

Are you getting a christmas tree?

I am seeing christmas decorations everywhere! Are you already in the mood for christmas?

I for one, never really celebrated Christmas. In Malaysia, Christmas isn’t as grand as it is here in England. We don’t normally buy christmas tree, because to us, christmas is just another ordinary day. How about you ? Is christmas a [...]

Tropical fruits in Malaysia Part 2 – Durian

I am not a great fan of durian, but my parents and uncle love durians. My uncle got me some really delicious durians when I was home awhile ago, I know most people prefer the bitter ones, but I only like the sweet ones, and I like to eat it cold, especially after the durian [...]
