Ipoh Desserts And Black Thorn

MY FRIENDS AND I HAD LUNCH AT LOKE WOOI KEE COFFEESHOP..... I didn't take any pictures then cos I was too engrossed in the peanuts pancake.... and after our lunch, we just crossed the road to the opposite side to try the desserts at the Tai Soo No. 1.  It is located at the side of a corner shop, just a small corner with three of four tables along the five foot way.

Since my friend had never tried their desserts before, we ended up ordering some funny additions to the authentic Tau Foo Far (beancurd dessert)
Tau Foo Far with Red Beans....
Tau Foo Far with Cendol...
Well, how was the taste for the above two?
If you ask me, I rather stick to the original... that is... no additions to the beancurd dessert..
Eat it just the way it is supposed to be.... it is not meant to be added anything else...
The varieties are only meant for the Ice Kacang... 
See what I mean?  The ingredients are meant to be for this... 
hahahaha...
Anyway, at least we got to experience some new taste.... 
Total cost is slightly below RM10
More desserts were served upon reaching home...
My friend brought along this special durian from Penang called Black Thorn...
And one box was definitely not enough....
I ordered some durians from my former office.... 
These are real "kampong" durians.... 
So creamy and nice too....
And the price was definitely much cheaper than those "branded" ones.....
Oh dear, I guess I have to refrain from any more durian purchase... 
These will definitely last me for one week or more!

    I haven't had any durian so far this season..It is always more costly over here. I would love to have the Ice Kacang, looks very refreshing.

    hmmm, the "special" TFF actually looks okay to me but of course i can never tell how they taste until i have really tried them, haha.. so they have the red beans and cendol version, i am sure they can have sweet corn and cincau TFF also since all are ingredients for ABC, and oh, ice-cream TFF anyone?? :D

    Me too I like "old taste". Don;t like to add this and that for TTF and Cendol. Below RM10 kira as super cheap lo. If in some "branded" shop one bowl like that cost RM10 above leh.

    Sure or not enough of durian? nanti i come find you and tempt you to eat some more muhahaha...can have durian party

    This morning I saw your durians and just now I went to buy some hah..hah... beh tahan :D I bought Musang King and it cost me a small fortune :( But never mind lah, once in a while can belanja own self. I agree with you that tau foo fah should be eaten purely by itself. So weird to add other ingredients.

    Wow! Black Thorn durians are expensive in KL as they had to come from Penang.
    You have eaten almost all varieties of durians this season.

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....
