Swim Sunday

Image
Can't remember the last time I had a slow and lazy Sunday. Because mum had a charity event on Sunday morning, we went to sunset mass on Saturday. My day started at 8:00 AM, had a light bite to eat, and sent mum out. Then I went to the AirBnB to replenish some household items. For the very first time, I could swim at the pool there. It was an L-shaped infinity pool on the 6th floor, with a 'splendid' view of decaying shophouses along Old Klang Road. I didn't have the pool to myself as some kids were having their swimming lessons. That didn't stop me from changing into my skimpy yellow Marcuse swim trunks that SimonLover helped me purchase online. A couple of DILFs were there but they were in conservative suits. Did my laps then moved my stuff to the other end of the pool where it was quieter. Flopped myself on the lounge chair and relaxed. Unlike what SimonLover and ForIHaveSinned usually do, I didn't stick around to sizzle in the sun. By the time I left, i

Sunday was hazy and hot. Mum and I were supposed to go to Jejak Purnama in the evening, so we gave the malls a miss. Hopped over to Origins Cafe for a simple lunch thanks to their B1F1 promo on Entertainer App. My first time there although its so close to my church. A no frills cafe that seems to have its regulars. The whole time we were there, a guy was giving chemistry tuition to a couple of teenagers at the adjacent table. It helps that they use canteen-like tables. Both the chicken chop and cajun pasta were decent in terms of taste and portion. But the flat white was weak. At around 5 PM, mum and I left home and headed for KLSCAH. Jejak Purnama is a cultural event in conjunction with the Mid-autumn Festival. According to the schedule, there would be a lantern procession from KLSCAH to the Guan Di Temple at Petaling Street. The rest of the cultural performances would take place there. Mum and I were among the earliest to arrive. Thought that we would have to do the lanter

Small Scrimmage

Khatijah and I went to yumcha in Taman Desa for an underwear pick up. He suggested a Thai cafe there called Mamamon. I arrived earlier than him, so I went in first, looked at the menu, sipped some water, and even used the restroom. When Khatijah came, he took one look at the menu and jio-ed me to leave. Lol. Not many choices were available, so we just sat down at Pappa Rich . Khatijah, SimonLover, and I had grouped our orders to take advantage of a bulk purchase discount at the CIN2 website. Got myself a pair of green Scrimmage jockstraps, while I chose an Oxide brief for KH. Unfortunately, the jockstrap didn't fit me. The S from this range is too small for me. Could practically hear the stitching give way! OMG, I'm so fat! :P. P.S. : The jockstrap has now found a new home with JJ. Ban was definitely delighted.

Keep Those Crepes Coming

Out of the blue, The Tribe appeared at the vicinity of my church during lunch time. Since the timing was fortuitous, we had lunch together at Strangers at Forty Seven . Business was brisk as usual. While I was poring through the menu, a member of the service crew dropped off a glass of orange juice on the table. I thought that The Tribe ordered it. Then Sis realized that they hadn't even ordered anything. Told the waitress about it and she took the drink away. In a flash, she returned with the juice and declared that its on the house. We were cool with that. Remembering that the portion of dessert crepes were small, I kiasu ordered four savoury crepes~ Nasi Lemak , Buttermilk Chicken, Eggcited Over Cheese, and Uncle Salmon. Three came with the exception of the salmon. After checking with the waitress, she confirmed that they bungled up the order, which was fine by us. Already too full. Suddenly, we got a free slice of cake as compensation. The people there can get my order w

Cafe Hopping

Mum did her usual marketing at OUG morning market, and was the second week in a row that I bumped into MIL. We were eating at Kopitiam Eng Huat when she suddenly walked in with FIL. She immediately came over to say hi to us. Also some sharing about her favourite stalls at the place. Before noon, mum went out for her massage and facial session. SK was in town that weekend, so we went out for lunch. Finally tried the food at LT Fang Cafe . Nothing magical about the pork chop in terms of taste, but there was something special about it because it came out so much quicker than the roast pork fried rice ( don't expect to see recognizable pieces of roast pork ). Big portion though, surely enough for 'rice bins'. Our coffee session was just a short walk away at Day 9 Kitchen . The weather was so hot that I opted for a cold coffee instead of my usual hot flat white. Told the waitress that I wanted a MoMo Ice and she went "huh?". Pointed her to the menu which descr

Happy Father's Day

On Father's Day, mum and I went lepak-ing at Paradigm Mall. Had a simple meal of chicken hor fun at Nam Heong . Was a bit flabbergasted that their tiny chicken sou actually costs RM3.80. Spiderman was roaming around the mall as part of some cosplay thing, but it wasn't Eric Lau Lofstedt . Stopped by at Starbucks to use my comp drink. Used it for a seasonal drink ( maximum value! )~ dark caramel frap with coffee sphere. Starbucks' answer to Koi's golden bubble. Truth be told, it was good. Not sickly sweet at all. And the coffee spheres were delicious. I actually finished that whole drink. Well, the drink was great, and so was the view. Starbucks Shin was sitting opposite me the whole time. Such a cutie. Perfect for those who like a good matcha latte. SK jio-ed us for dinner at Yuen Yuen , Taman Kinrara but I told her to avoid Chinese restaurants like the plague. Never a good idea to venture to such places during Father's Day. We ate at Day 9 Kitchen

6th Sense

KH organized a birthday lunch for Apollo and Andy at 6 Senses Gastrobar . It was a good opportunity to get everyone together. Timing was a tad difficult, as SK had just flew in from Istanbul that morning. 6 Senses is located in Taman Perindustrian Pusat Bandar Puchong, an area that I had not ventured to before. For some reason, most of the light industrial lots along that road were snapped up by bars, cafes, and restaurants. 6 Senses has a nice ambience and some of their food is pretty good. I recommend the Dip in Funghi and Pork Chop. The dip is actually a cream of mushroom soup topped with egg, and served with toast. Its served in a hot stone bowl, making it extra yummy. And it's unheard of for a place to serve set lunches on a weekend, so it's quite a steal. During the lunch, SK let us try some premium Turkish Delights~ multi-hued sticks imbued with multiple flavours. My favourite is the rose petals.
