Malaysia's Ass: Instagram Husband

Image
Book Xcess at REXKL provides a fantastic backdrop for photos.  The converted cinema hall was filled to the brim with bookshelves. The many steps make for great details, but not quite friendly for the elderly and infirm. However, I welcome the able-bodied to go crazy in there, like this Instagram Husband that I spotted. Those two globes of his really caught my eyes from far away. Those calves of his aren't too bad as well. Would love to see him in some Nike leggings and a tank top. Pasti sedap!  Can also imagine him doing some HeartPatrick-style nude shots in the quiet corners of the bookstore. Bet his perky ass would look great against all those books. Oh, the possibilities! 

Wilayah Walkabout

February 1st is Federal Territory Day, a holiday which commemorates the transfer of Kuala Lumpur to the control of the Federal Government. Prior to 1974, Kuala Lumpur was under the governance of the Selangor State Government. KH and I took the opportunity to paktor  at Petaling Street, the historic heart of Kuala Lumpur. Had no idea about lunch options, so we were lucky that the lady boss from Wu Li Tou Drunken Clam Noodles was very persuasive. The stir-fried noodles were quite flavourful with decent wok qi .  The restaurant was at Jalan Sultan, just a stone's throw away from REXKL, the old Rex Theatre. The theatre was rejuvenated into community and arts hub, and also houses a very Instagram-able BookXcess. The place has the feel of a bookstore maze. There's a food court on the ground floor, with some hipster cafes as well. Further down the road, we found a tong sui shop with some great options called Zhaoji Desserts . The ginger milk pudding comes with a mini hourglass to t...

CNY Cuties: Dua Space Dancers

Image
For several years now, I have been lucky enough to catch Dua Space 's contemporary dance performance's at The Gardens Mall. Not only are they talented, but cute as well. Kenny Leow  is lithe and graceful, which makes him shine.  Another regular dancer is Chee Kar Hung , who is young and boyish. Gotta love his arms. Defintely brings much CNY cheer!

Sixteen years together is no easy feat. Although KH and I had already spent so many years together, we can still say silly things to each other. Poke fun at each other about subjects that have origins from when we started dating. Our inside jokes. Does it mean that we have not progressed? I would like to think that we still maintain the same innocent love that we have for each other. To mark the occasion, we had a wonderful lunch at Entier French Dining located in Alila Bangsar. We had a table with a view, and the natural light really makes the food porn photos pop. A memorable dining experience complete with anniversary cake compliments of the restaurant.  Mei and MiniMei were in town, so we took the opportunity to catch up with them at Chye Seng Foo Coffee in Cheras. Perhaps MiniMei was exhausted from all the social events that her momma dragged her too, so she was a bit sulky. Nothing a little bacon fries couldn't solve. With Mei, she updated us on her situationship and life b...

Hopped Over to Sungai Burung

Image
On the second day of Year of the Rabbit, we made a trip to Bagan Sungai Burung to visit my maternal cousins. Did the usual visiting at the fishing village. For the first time ever, my cousin brought us to the nearby beach. The mind-blowing thing was that it was just a stone's throw from the old house. Just a short walk. Guess we never went there because it isn't a particularly beautiful beach. The government fortified it with stones to stop erosion. According to my cousin, its popular for wedding photography among the Malay community. That beach is close to the estuary of the Bernam River, so once in a while there would be tourists waving to us on their boats. Being a fresh spot, we took quite a number of photos. Would have taken more if not for the sweltering sun.  With the touristy things out of the way, it was time for a hearty home style seafood hotpot. Anticipating our arrival, my cousin laid crab traps at two in the morning, and brought home loads of flower crabs when the...

Hopping into 2023

Image
For the first time in many years, SK joined us for Chinese New Year reunion dinner. With the passing of her grandmother, she no longer returned to Kuantan. Since she was in town, we also attended the Chinese New Year mass together. For the first time, I was in charge of all the logistics and arrangements, and boy, was it challenging. Nobody wants to deal with obstinate people on  Chor Yat , but can't help it. The stress overflowed, and unfortunately it caused some in-fighting among the team. Lord, grant me patience and wisdom!  At the end of the mass, I was sweaty, and drained. Phew....

Restaurant Celebrities: K-Boss

Image
Ticket to Korea is one of my favourite Korean fusion restaurants. The menu is small, but the few things on it will get you hooked. Even if the food ( the cheesy ribs are recommended ) doesn't attract you, perhaps the K-Boss with the American accent will. P.S.: At the time of writing, the outlet at SetiaWalk is temporarily closed :(
