First Meal At Madam Kwan, 1 Utama

One of the reasons for cancelling my Singapore trip is because I have to go to Kuala Lumpur.... I have booked the Firefly in April, it was the cheapest rate then... but alas last minute, something propped up and my family had to drive down on Sunday.  I was quite worried about the jam but to my delight, going down south was a smooth journey but not the other way round.  Many cars were seen going up north instead...
Hope coming back to Ipoh will be as smooth too!
My first meal after touching down KL....
Met up with Madam Kwan for the first time... 
Must "acknowledge" the Madam Kwan before entering... right? 
hahahaha....
While waiting for the food...
Madam Kwan's special Nasi Lemak...
Fragrant to the fullest....
Their signature fried chicken...
Nasi Briyani with Fried Drumstick
And Rojak as desserts...
A satisfying meal.... 
To burn our calories, we lingered in 1Utama for some time... 
My girl is most happy to do that!

    I've read mixed reviews about the place - one very bad one about the outlet in Mid Valley. Always thought it is a HongKong franchise, with a name like that. A friend of mine likes it, said it'ssome kind of nyonya food place. Will try next time I go to KL.

    It has been a long time since I ate at Madam Kwan. Their most famous dish is the nasi bojari. Are you sure it is briyani and not bojari in your photo?

      I believe it is bojari and not briyani that you ate. The fried chicken rice meal is exactly the same as the nasi bojari I ate last time.

      But i thought it is briyani rice? Is it the one with the fried chicken?

      The name of the dish with fried chicken is nasi bojari. I am not sure whether the rice is cooked in a way that it could be called briyani.

      In the menu, for nasi bojari the rice is just described as tri coloured rice.

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

First Day In The Royal Caribbean Cruise To Mexico

ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT.... gently down the sea....  Royal Caribbean, it is my second time following this giant vessel, the first time was from Singapore to Phuket, that was a very nice cruise.  So when my son mentioned that he found a good deal online, this time to Mexico, I agreed without hesitation.  Let's Go! A three nights stay with food and lodging only cost around $250 per person with at least one senior in per room.  Meals were either buffet style or fine dining, we can choose and cafes were opened 24 hours for us to rest and relax.  How not to resist... LOL...  And so here we are... just one week after landing in US, I was on the sea....  Looks small from afar...  It was a giant vessel with at least 14 floors.... On the way to embarking after Custom Clearance...  Our room for the next three nights....  Small and cosy.... And adjoining to my son's family room through a door...  The one with balcony cost a bit more...  A short briefing about safety after we checked in....
