Ice Ice Rojak

Somewhere unfamiliar (to me) in Cheras!

I wanted to try their “street food”

I saw the TT of the lady boss making the cendol herself. 

Can’t be bad, right? 

Then I read the reviews. Some horrid ones. 

Hmmmm, gotta try the food myself then. 

Cendol was good. Not sweet.

What I LOVED was their Sotong Kangkung. Sooooo yummy. Maybe I haven’t eaten this for like 50 years!!!?

Rojak was yummy too. Great combo and the crackers…. SEDAP!

Chee Cheong Fun was okay lah.

Acupuncture

Tung Shin Hospital, Pudu

My first time!

Thought it might help make the pain go away.

My bill came to only RM75!

Thank God. 

******

Will acupuncture make my pain disappear?

Hmmmmmm 🤔

I went to get some acupuncture

To shoo my pain away

Arm still has problems holding a wok

The doctor poked me with a needle, then another, and another…

I was waiting for pain. No pain.

Felt like a human pin cushion.

Doctor said “Don’t move”

Fine.

Jeez i must look like a human porcupine 🤭 

Second doctor steps away, my right hand dived into my bag.

Snap snap snap and phone was resting peacefully when doctor came in.

Phew!

So now what?

Would my energy realign?

Would I finally reach my Zen?

Zen gotta wait.

My tummy was growling.

Subang Parade

It was out of curiosity mostly. DD was offering a RM38 per pax buffet breakfast. Hmmmmm! That cheap? In this economy?

Gotta go try for ourselves.

Subang Parade was kinda eerie when we reached at 8.45AM. 

Never will I go there again.

DD was easy to find but hmmmm place looked nice cosy and nature-like. Flooring was horrible. Some parts with wooden planks, some parts were loose pebbles and some were cemented. Not friendly. Not safe to me. 

Especially when you are carrying food back and forth from buffet section to table.

Service was bearable. Because they only do buffets on the first Sunday of every month, the staff are still chaotic. Table reservations were not organized properly. It was lucky for us as we were the first to arrive so we managed to get our table in order. 

Honestly buffet line was quite good. However, the crowd in that small bar - like place. Not my cup of tea. The crowd made the place extra hot!

Oh well, our first and our last. 

Serve us right for trying out cos it’s cheap! LOL

That’s all I had for RM38! 

Not bad eh 🤣

 

Jalan Ipoh Fish Head Mihun

Very yummy food here, not just the fish head mihun. 

Everything is yummy here!!!

 

Pick your own Golden Melon

TKPM Serdang (Taman Kekal Pengeluaran Makanan - Serdang Permanent Food Production Park) is a special commercial agricultural zone created by the government. Located in the Serdang Agricultural Complex, this area was developed under the supervision of the Department of Agriculture to enable agribusiness entrepreneurs to carry out large-scale food production in a modern and consistent manner. 

Sites and infrastructure such as fertigation systems and open crop farms are open to entrepreneurs and agricultural graduates to generate income. 

TKPM regularly hosts “Pick On Your Own" events where visitors can harvest fruits & vegetables directly from the greenhouses at their integrated farms in Serdang.

Cik Zulfa’s farm is open for harvesting until 15 June. She is great to chat with. Fun and informative. Salute her for her hard work and enthusiasm.

I love visiting farms although mozzies and I are dire enemies! Love picking my own veggies and fruits.
