Ampang Park - Twice in a row

For 2 consecutive days, we went to Ampang Park. I was and still am busy preparing for Saturday's event. My baby wants this and my princess wants that and of course, my hero will have his own wish lists as well.

So, for 2 days in a row, we had lunch at Ampang Park. We by definition will be Cik Puan Ambang and Ms Money Matters. I thought if I have lunch with friends, I can eat more...

First day to Ampang Park, we ate at the Laksa place at the entrance of Ampang Park. We also ordered chee cheong fun just to add on this. I did not eat much. I feel full by the time I finished half of the bowl.

Second day, went to eat at Cozy House. Order Kueyteow Hailam and my favourite, prawn with dried chillis and cashew nuts. This time was even worse. Makan skit jer...

Maybe I am becoming paranoid. Maybe I am too scared to eat...I don't know....

But, one thing for sure...I am determined this time around, I WILL LOOSE WEIGHT!!!!

Kickers Closing Down Sale

While strolling down the KLCC during lunch hour with Cik Puan Ambang and Ms Money Matters, we discovered that Kickers was having their closing down sale. In normal situation, I don't usually have the guts to enter this store as I know the price is on the high side. But this time around it was different.

I bought this 2 T-Shirts for my better half, each price at RM29, usual price is RM89 each.

Then I bought this trousers one each for the cuties price at RM29 each, usual price RM128 each

I also bought this shirt for my hero price 12 RM17 each, usual price RM70.

There were also shoes for male, but since I don't know the exact size for my better half, decided not to take it.

Some pointers for those interested to go for this sale :

1. It ends on 9 November 2008, but while stocks last

2. They have this no return policy so make sure you have the size right

3. The choices are quite limited considering loads have been sold off

Have fun shopping!!!

Raya@PNB

Myself, Cik Puan Ambang and Ms Money Matters were invited again to another Open House, this time organised by PNB held at Dewan Perdana. We booked a cab to go to this place as we anticipate parking may be a problem. We also booked a cab back to office after the event.

As predicted, parking was a problem. And what makes it worse, it was raining. We had to go through massive jem on the way there and on the way back as well.

The food however, manage to compensate the other not so positive aspect of the event. They have this Shamsudin Lamin some sort like ghazal group to entertain us.

We did not stay for long, have to go to our company event. While we were waiting for our ride back, the DPM, Dato' Seri Najib Tun Razak was making his exit as well. So, dapat ler snap gambo dari jauh. He got alot of bodyguards so no way to take a close up.

The funny thing was, many VIPs were waiting for their ride back at the lobby and all are using big cars...And when our ride came, all dok staring, naik cab je minah bertiga nie...apa pandang2, ingat org naik teksi nie takde duit ke??

Carl's Junior to satisfy cravings...

Apart from the shoe cravings which led us to Pavillion, we also wanted to get a good lunch here. We were contemplating whether to have this at the foodcourt or Carl's Junior. Considering there is no Carl's Junior in KLCC, we opted for this instead.

The que was long, for a fast food joint, the service is quite inefficient. Only one counter open and we did not get our food immediately. We were given number to indicate that the food will be sent to us instead.

This is the only food I ordered....

NOT!!!!

This was the food actually. The burger here is huge so me and Ms Money Matters decided to share. I just had mineral water, I am trying to stop myself from taking carbonated drinks...very unhealthy.

Of course, the trip to this place won't be complete without ordering Chilli Fries. Memang superbly delicious!!

Kasut dapat, makan sedap dapat...apa lagi mau!!!

Our first Charles & Keith

I've been wanting to get my very own Charles & Keith for the last 3 months. But, no trips were made to Pavillion and the last trip made, not in the mood to buy shoes ler pulok!

So, yesterday, during lunch, tiga sekawan i.e. myself, Cik Puan Ambang and Ms Money Matters gigihkan jugak diri and went to Pavillion. We had Carl's Junior for lunch and with a very significant eye contact between me and Cik Puan Ambang, we went straight to the dream destination, Charles & Keith boutique.

The price range here is not bad, for shoes the price starts from RM80 and for handbags RM160.

The staff is very friendly and helpful, but not pestering and follows you around like other place that I've been too.

I bought this shoes...Cantik kan? Suka sangat!!!

And Ms Money Matters grabbed this handbag. If she didn't purchase this, I wanted to but I prefer the other colour. Picture below, Ms Money Matters malu2 menunjukan handbagnyer...

And yang membeli bagai tak hingat, of course is Cik Puan Ambang. She bought this handbag and this shoes. Cuba teka sape the handbag model!

It was indeed a stressful week but after I stared at my shoes....the stress is no big deal!

Chillis Action

We wanted to go to Pavillion last Friday, wanted to grab some Carls Junior as we have been craving for that since the fasting month. However, with meetings that need to be attended to, and having all this back to back, that just didn't happen.

Lunch hour which was supposed to start at 12.15pm on Friday, only started at 1.15pm due to the work load. Nak buek camno, work first, fun later.

So, the next best thing will be Chillis...

The four of us, me, Cik Puan Ambang, Ms Money Matter and Mrs GREEN went on this crusade to search for good food.

We ordered quite a lot. Yup, we know membazir itu kerja syaitan and will try to be better at ordering in future. Anyway, all the leftoovers were tapau'ed and eaten by the hungry boys in the office....

But, don't think we forgotten about Carl's Junior...this Friday yer....Insyallah!

Raya@Wangsa Maju

Ms Money Matters sent an email to me on Monday inviting us to her house for makan2. I was fasting so I told her I will come after Maghrib.

The traffic was quite bad, so we arrived later than expected.

The food was delicious...I want more of the rendang ayam!!! Kena masak lagi sekali tau!!!

And the finale of the event, Ms Money Matters' son insisted that his photos to be taken with the cuties. And lastly with his dad. Comel sungguh!

However, Ms Money Matters, we still want the laksa johor, next round yer...

Happy Birthday Ms Money Matters

After over due by nearly 2 weeks, we finally managed to organised Ms Money Matters birthday. It was a busy season(like pernah tak busy) for everyone so this lunch itself was quite a challenge to organise.

And of course, we choose Chillis cause we wanna have free delicious birthday cake. And the cake don't have to be a big cake, as long as cukup for sikit sama dirasa.

I was joined by William, Mr Info and Azrul. Ms GTL was still not well, and the rest were not able to join.

Ms Money Matters arrived later than the rest of us so we ordered on her behalf to ensure that the food arrive on time.

Dear Ms Money Matters, we wish you nothing but for your happiness. You have a been a great friend whom never failed to be there when I need someone. Have a good future ahead and God Bless!

2 mothers

We had our usual Friday lunch spree. At first, we wanted to go to Quality Hotel KL to enjoy the buffet spread of dim sum since Cik Puan Ambang dok mengidam nak berdim sum. However, the weather did not permit us to do so but the cravings for Cik Puan Ambang was still there. So, we went to the nearest dim bum outlet, Spring Garden, KLCC. I have few favourite choices there namely the deep fried yam dumpling, turnip cake and steamed bbq chicken. We also had chinese fried rice to compliment that.

But what's interesting was the after lunch event. Cik Puan Ambang wanted to look for her youngest and only daughter birthday present and she wanted to get her a teddy bear. We then went to Lovely Lace and bought one for her. Cute giler and I still insists that's a second hand teddy bear, Cik Puan Ambang dah dok gomol the bear before it gets to the birthday girl. GTL can verify that.

While Ms Money Matters bought something out of ordinary, a rubber made centipede for her son. Well, not for her son to play with but more to be placed in the fridge so that her son will stay away from opening the fridge and start to consume things which may make him fall ill. Creative giler...But jangan mak bapak more tekejut than the anak dah ler...

Well, the morale of the story...

Different mothers have different ways showing love and affections but they mean well..
