I just ♥ having meat-free meals occasionally especially when I've been a carnivore for a certain period to transform myself into an omnivore at least. How about you? If you intend to go on vegetarian someday, this post is for you!
Planned to go for lunch at Harvest Inn Cafe but then it was really packed during lunch hours and we were too hungry to wait. In the end we dined atJenxDan Lifestyle(click to link) again. This is actually my second visit to the place and besides Lily, it's also my current favourite vegetarian restaurant which servings are more to Western & Fusion more than typical Chinese dishes.
Chilled Fruit Punch is one of my all time fav. beverage as I just love drinks with zesty flavour :)
Mummy's warm Roselle
According to her it's tasted something like blackcurrant with a minimal salty taste
Egg-less Strawberry Cheesecake
I don't quit like artificial strawberry flavouring as it tend to remind me of the stupid fever liquid medicine..ill.yucks! However I could still tolerate with this slice, maybe I was to hungry at that time(ate the cake before having my main meal)??? & this was the only choice left so...whatever lar beggars can't be choosy.
Only Veg. Sushi
grated carrots, cucumber, beetroot, lettuce, seaweed & smtg like glass noodles, veg. ham in the roll to be eaten with wasabi and soya sauce. The reason I love this is because of the crunchy veg. wrapped with the seaweed.
Pasta
can't really rmb the name, it should be smtg. carbonara I guess basically it just tasted like normal cream of carbonara sauce, not really special but then I like the 口感(not sure if u guys understand what I mean?) of this serving.
Mermaid
Vegetarian fish in creamy ginger lemon sauce to be eaten with brown rice. So healthy right? yay! My fav veg is included :) The slight lemon flavour actually neutralize the entire creamy gravy to a minimal level and made it more appetizing than just plain creamy.
Spaghetti ~ ps. forget the name again
not too sour not too sweet, just nice! broccoli + cherry tomatoes. No wonder I've to order this.
Pumpkin soup ~ ps. forget to snap picture for this one. The taste was not too bad but it was too thick till we have to ask them to add some water to liquefy the soup which was kinda jam-like at first.

It is so not a great timing to talk about food at this time because it somehow triggers your desire of wanting to eat! Worst of all it tends to make your stomach growl but then I am still doing it in order to avoid procrastination.
Close-up of the signature Taiwanese Dessert
Black soya ice+Taro Q Balls(sweet potato...)+Baby Pearls+Peanuts
This bowl of 'Black Soya Series Taiwanese Dessert' from Snow House 雪花坊 @ Precinct 10 totally satisfied my longing for Taiwanese Dessert! The vibrant colours of the ingredients and the fragrance of the peanuts already made it looked so mouth-watering. Moreover the concoction of a portion of aromatic peanuts, sweet potato flavored Taro Q balls and chewy baby pearls as the toppings of the refreshing soya ice with an add on drizzle of milk, mmm...such a delightful dessert! If you are a dessert maniac like me who can actually replace meals with desserts, what are you waiting for? Do drop by Snow House which I highly recommend and I bet you will spoil yourself with the variety available on the menu there. Besides, I do hope that you guys will relish every spoonful like I did the other day! :)
Hi there! phew..what a relieve, finally I'm done with my speaking test for MUET :) It wasn't really a great start but then eventually turned out better as it went on, overall not too bad I guess. Whatever it is no point crying over split milk right? So, it's time to prepare for those upcoming ones which I heard it's gonna be tough. I don't know why but I felt kinda happy today which is beyond my everyday so-so mood? Maybe I've already get enough rest since alarm clock was off from duty today & biological clock was taking over the duty. :) Nothing is like having a good night sleep...
Cutting all those crap at the moment...Now switch your attention to the pictures below:
No joke but my dessert was actually my lunch or I should say brunch of the day...I don't mind replacing desserts as a meal especially when I'm running out of time or when my lazy mode is peaking :P Not good for digestive system, so better DON'T DO THAT! or else...in your face if you become like me need to take gastric medicine >< Guess I should add another resolution to this year which is to eat on time!
My dessert! ~ black soya ice+ peanuts+taro Q balls+pearls
Personally I'm superb in love with desserts especially if it's TAIWANESE or Hongkies and been longing for eversince Adelyne told me about the shop but then no chance to go together with her till I've finally went there yesterday since I'm already on the way back from TARC.
Review: * the fragrance of this bowl of mouth watering dessert already made it win half the battle even tough without tasting it *the vibrant colours made it look even more tempting *the pearls are slightly smaller than other Taiwanese dessert stores I've tried but then still CHEWY! *<3 the slightly crunchy yet soft peanuts *taro Q balls is totally the signature of this bowl of delightful dessert *the soya ice with the combination of additional milk made mm...milky which I love the most
Overall rating: Acceptable sweetness which I'll rate ★★★★★/5, PERFECT SCORE!(fyi, I hardly give perfect score)
One thing good about having accompany while eating is get to swap or taste more servings as well as having someone to help you clear up when the portion is too much for your own share. So, I did tasted hers as well :) Kinda yummy but sorry lar I'm too **** to review about it..haha..but I can assure is that Mango lovers would like this!

Hello peeps! So it's already 农历初八(8th day of CNY in the Lunar Calendar) of the highly anticipated festive season especially for the Chinese Community. Not to mention, in Malaysia it's like the whole nation is celebrating together as we are so lucky that we always get to share holidays even if its not our festive season! :) As most people tend to utilize festival seasons to visit their fellow family members, the roads here will be ♫ HERE JAM, THERE JAM, EVERYWHERE JAM JAM..(read it as how ► "Old McDonald's" melody sounds & it rhymes! Right? ...crow calls*..lame)
This time I'm just randomly jotting down what I've done on 农历初六 (6th day of CNY in the Lunar Calendar). Planned, switched date, postponed, cancelled & at last kinda BROUGHT FORWARD were the process of this time's reunion which we purposely wanted to do during CNY. Thank God we managed to make it somehow or else I'm gonna be :( Seriously hate to cancel something when it has already been planned, it's like letting your peaking excitement dropping from sky high. Honestly, we did nothing special nor exciting(just had lunch @ Swensens, walked around & movie) for this time lor but still glad to spend time with the group. Picture was taken while we were waiting @ GSC cinema, Gurney Plaza...
So called group picture of the day #GPOTD < my own abbr. which one fellow was missing #edited
Since I've nothing much to elaborate, just wanna share briefly with you guys the movie we watched.
The Impossible
This movie has been showcased in Malaysia cinemas for quite some time, no wonder the ticket was the cheapest among all movies..lol. Personally, I'll rate this movie 4/5 as I like the touching story line after the calamitous catastrophe struck and hit the entire holiday resort to a flatten land. It was like a miracle for those being able to reconcile with family members after the horrendous tidal waves which struck and turned the holiday into a survival battle. Not going to review much about this movie, just feel free to watch the trailer for a clearer picture about thistrue story movie (click to be linked):
sighs* till now I'm still so prow at procrastinating and never post things on time :P I planned to publish this post two days ago and then as usual took some time to edit pics(probably just few minutes), chatting, Skype-ing as in video calling, watching video & short clips...etc.
snapshot of me and my primary classmate's video call Japan ~ Malaysia
blurry image :(
owh before I sign off, just wanna share with you guys a video I've viewed after seeing it appearing on my FB news feed
You guys may proceed to this linkto view it! I'm really stunned by the action of this not bias Muslim man who actually sacrifices his time to take care of stray dogs. His really a Good Samaritan for those stray animals who really deserve my respect!
#zomg Few more days and I'm going to sit for my MUET Speaking Test when I don't even know what should I prepare?? It's time for me to stop right here, see you guys next time! Bye!
hehe...pic of me during Primary 2
I guess that was the last pic I have with bangs till now
If you are on my FB friend lists or Instagram follower you guys probably found out that I currently have fringe. Finally I've made up my mind to bring back my childhood bangs ^_^.
Was in dilemma for quite some time whether to cut of not as I'm kinda afraid my bangs will make me look retarded like 'Ah Wong'. It's cute but then if it happen to be that way I'll need to hide at home for CNY this year. Since I'm slacking and didn't bother to perm my hair this year so guess I should at least make some changes for a brand new year and I guess the best solution is to have bangs as when I was at my younger days I also have them before so...ok fine! I decided to make a change of my hair style before the parting I had/ gonna bald spot worsen as I've noticed my hair on that particular area appeared to be courser than it should be :( When the hair stylist was cutting my hair I was hoping for the best and kinda preparing for the worst outlook but then it lucky thing the result turned out to be a satisfying one :)
my fav country singer Taylor Swift, 4minute's Hyuna the sexy queen, SNSD's leader Taeyeon, KARA's Goo Hara, Han Hyo Joo aka actress from Dong Yi, Lee Min Jung,Goo Hye Sun, <3 SNSD's Tiffany, SNSD's Jessica aka ice princess, Son Ye Jin, Miss A's Bae Suzy, 2NE1's Park Bom, Fala Chen, Linda Chung, the Korean's elegant Barbie Doll Han Chae Young , SNSD's dancing queen Hyeyeon, SNSD's natural beauty Yoona, Jolin Tsai & Zhang Zi Yi
Normally I'll take some time to adapt to my hairstyle but then this time I'm already used to my bangs. However, yes I'm liking my current hairstyle but then honestly since Malaysia's weather tend to be humid, I still prefer my previous one :P
Reasons I'm ♥ my bangs:
1. Looks more youthful
2. Don't need to bother about my eye brows
3. Kinda fashionable
4. Won't go off-style
5. Won't get bald head :P
6. Able to style it several ways (normal, pin up...etc.)
Annoying facts of having bangs:
1. Shitty hair it becomes whenever you sweat or the wind blows
2. Hot!
3. Need to spend some time to comb, style, blow dry...
4. Constant maintenance (as it grows very fast, it need to be trimmed to maintain it's shape)
Right (current hairstyle - ?) versus Left ( 2007 - 2012's hairstyle)
Curly hairversusstraight hair I heart my curled hair more as it's easier to manage(forgetting to comb at times is not a prob :P), don't have to sit so long as compare to straightening and looks more natural.
Before I end my post, I wish those who are celebrating Chinese New Year "Happy CNY! Wishing all of you a wonderful year ahead with excellent health and bountiful returns of what you desire as a whole in conjunction of welcoming the Year of Snake ^_^ sss*"
Still remember PSY's mega-hit 'Oppa Gangnam Style'? Kudos PSY! Your 'op op' song really spread like wildfire till every corner of the globe, not only netizens and Kpop fans but even those who don't really follow up musics updates, marketplace people, kids etc.
Moreover, haha..outbeated the guy who's at the same age with me yet already debuted 'Baby', yeah..I mean Justin Bieber. standingovation4PSY* Bielibers if you guys happen to come across this posting of mine, please don't get me wrongly and don't bombard my post as I'm also a JB fan who loves some of his hit songs too! Me likey his 'Baby', 'Boyfriend', 'Eenie Meenie' & 'Somebody to Love'. I've revealed mine, so, what's your favourite JB song? As for 'Oppa Gangnam Style', I don't really like the song like how I used to love my all time favourite songs but then honestly I was once kinda obsess with it and my mind automatically goes'op op oppa gangnam style'and then 'eh sexy lady...op op' whenever I hear that song #wth but honestly that song kept on replaying in my mind for quite some time, annoying yet the beats are addictive. Hypocrite much? Whatever it is I think I've finally get over that song. Maybe yes at the moment but I guess mostly not...:P Reason? Very simple because the Superstar uncle is coming to Malaysia but then surprisingly not to the capital city KL but he is coming down to PENANG! Hoping to be at the venue on that very day itself but on the contrary don't feel like being so fanatic, some even said there are ulterior motives which was the reason why PSY was invited to perform here foc, rumours...rumours..ignoring*not bothering*. The fact is damn it! PSY gonna be here, foc to see him omgf Penang is gonna be super jammed! argh! I hate crawling like snail traffic, I guess I better stay home? or..haha...if I happen to be there then I'll definitely report the hoo-ha of the day here :)
Find it hard to believe what I was blabbering? You are excusable since it's such a shocking news and may read it atthestaronline(click to link). Besides those of you who really don't want to miss this golden opportunity..seeing international artist for foc u know?...I suggest you to stay tune for latest updates with George Town, Penang's Facebook Page (click to link).

Copied the lyric from the above website and since I'm making it for my personal use so just casually sharing with you guys. Not gonna elaborate much about this MV/GG this time since it's already a lengthy post, feel free to browse through my previous postinghere.(click to link)
Anyoung and daume bauyo! (literally I wanted to say goodbye & see you next time). If you understand Korean do correct me if I've said it wrongly :P Kamsahamida!
Hi peeps! Unexpectedly I'm back to posting within 24 hours. What to do, I felt like blogging out of sudden so I better strike up while I'm in mood rather than PRO.......... again. Actually I wanted to post this earlier but then hehe..procrastinated a little :P So here you go with some of my lame excuses:
#1 Was too tired on that day itself #2 Not at mood on that particular day since some bloody issue ruining my day #3 Went on stalking others blog #4 Day dreaming #5 Was not used to the new version of Photobucket's Image Editor, kinda fed up with some features of it too >< especially when it simply rotate my pics!
Btw, this time I'm just gonna make a short review about the JenxDan Lifestyle @ Chow Tyhe Road, Penang which serves a variety of Asian as well as Western Cuisines. Since I've limited pictures of food (too ps to take other's dishes) I'm gonna make this post short without crapping. #laziness
My Pesto Pasta!
instead of ordering creamy sauce I opted for a change this time by having pasta with basil & olive oil sauce
Sushi
Sry for the poor photo quality but me super likey this veg sushi roll
Imma veg lover :)
Will definitely go back to the vegetarian restaurant again someday! Glad to say that now I've another place to dine when I wanna have a meat-free meal.
Short enough? ;) Prefer me to make a long-winded post or make it this way? Leave your comment below.
Planned to go to Look Yuen Chinese Restaurantaka 乐园饭店 for dinner since we are going over to Juru Autocity last Saturday but then went round and round around the mainland looking for it till I got gastric but then worst of all did not manage to figure out wth the restaurant is situated. ><
Reasons why we could not find and could not even ask for directions:
1. Don't even remember the name of the restaurant at that time even though been there several times :P
2. Yes we know it's located at the mainland but then could not remember the road name (Bukit Tengah? Bukit Minyak? BKT.???)
3. Landmark? We only knew there's an overhead bridge in front of the restaurant ><
& so in order to write this post I made the attempt to use Google Map's Satellite to find out the name as well as the direction to that particular restaurant!
Ha! Thanks to the anonymous who has pinned about the restaurant on Google Maps and enabling me to find out the exact location of restaurant I was mentioning :)
Address:Tingkat Kerjasama 4,
Taman Kerjasama,
14000 Bkt. Tengah,
Bkt. Mertajam, Penang
Contact:04-5074785 or 012-4708022
Hopefully with this info we won't lost our way again.
Since we were freaking hungry after several attempts of looking for the restaurant, we straightaway headed to Juru Autocity and had our dinner at Boston Hongkie Kopitiam aka 又一城 .Now, let the pictures show you what we had on that day:
some sort of cheese toast...
Too hungry to memorise the names :P
Yam Milkshake! :)
the killer which made me felt extra unwell that night
but then still superb <3 for yam flavour
Seafood Cheese Baked Rice #appetite spoiler
biggest disappointment of all.
uncooked rice >< tasteless sh**
Almond with Egg :)
Mmm! Drink I suggested for mummy but ended up curi minum. Just love the unique combination of the fragrance of the creamy almond.
We've ordered a total of nine dishes but then sorry har a hungry fellow could not manage to snap everything and so that's all for my food post. Lastly, Tadaa!
