Flying AirAsia to Bali

Airasia recently won the 2013 Low Cost Airline of the Year Award again at the 2013 Air Transport News (ATN) Awards ceremony in Montreal, Canada. This repeat recognition and reputation is probably why we chose to fly with them again into Denpasar the capital of Bali, and also maybe because of their affordability, due to [...]

Taman Bukit Anggerik Street food

One of the best things about Taman Bukit Anggerik, Cheras is the enormous number of good street food stalls in the area. That, and also the RM2.50 Lor Mai Farn (glutinous rice). Run by a chinese family (mother, son and dad) this lor mai farn stall sells out pretty quickly. And if there’s any doubt [...]

Feasting at Favola!

Eating out at Favola, always reminds me of eating out in Venice. With its moody weather, that’s almost always threatening rain, breath-taking ancient architecture, winding canals, and endless mysterious passageways, Venice was one of the places I loved most for great sightseeing and food, in Italy. This trip was almost a decade ago, but I [...]

Flying Wantan Mee @ Simon’s Delights, Paramount PJ

It was the case of the Flying Wantan noodles, that brought us out to lunch at Simon’s Delights one fine afternoon… How high can you go?   Or How high can you fly? Tossing the wantan noodles to new heights – that’s what this guy does for a living. He can be spotted at Restoran [...]
