Kam Hor Steamed Chicken, Ipoh Garden, Ipoh

WHEN I WAS STILL IN US, I was thinking of Ipoh curry noodles... now that I am back, the first thing I wanted to eat is Chicken Koay Teow aka *kai see hor fun* 

 After waking up at 4am and published my previous post, it was almost 6am... I was still very wide awake by then and one thing came to my mind.... Jogging!  Okay, not jog.. walk will do... Quickly I woke up my girl and together we went to Polo Ground....  It had been so long since I last had a good brisk walk and I really sweated...

An hour later, we landed ourselves in Boon Bak Garden for the famous "Kai Si Hor Fun!"  
Waited twenty minutes to fulfill my satisfaction... 
The soup is just enough to cover the noodles and I didn't waste them at all....
This bowl lasted me till dinner...... 
*I think I am still a small eater... seriously*
For dinner, my friends came and fetched us to Kam Hor in Ipoh Garden...
Oh oh... Kai Si Hor Fun again?
Yes!!
Ipoh Beansprouts... ever crunchy!
Their Sai Toe Fish balls....
Nicely arranged Steamed Chicken with green leaves... 
Servings for three... 
And my bowl of Ipoh Koay Teow....
Still as smooth and fine...
I like their generosity of the greens in the soup....
The half hour wait in Kam Hor is really worth it.... 
For four people plus drinks, the bill came to RM43....
Ipoh... Ipoh... I am Back!!

    I see your photos in the previous post, you didn't "expand" like I do every time I go to the US. I think US did not turn you into a big eater lah...

    Ipoh hor fun really rocks. Can't find anything that comes close in Penang yet...

    Seems like you really like Kai Si Hor Fun, even two in a day, but still two different taste, one is spicy and one just soup.

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....
