Salted Chicken And Vietnamese Desserts For Tea Time

VIETNAMESE FOOD nearby our area...

We stopped by a Vietnamese shop on our way back from shopping.  Feeling not so hungry and yet wanting to eat something, we ordered a very light meal but undoubtedly, we were wrong again.  Everything looks good at the shop and we ended up eating these around 4pm and eventually, we skipped dinner and had supper instead.  That explains why I have gained two kilograms in just a month stay in Sacramento! 
Inside the Vietnamese shop... 
We ordered salted chicken rice... which comes with a bowl of chicken soup as well... 
Vietnamese paper wrap rolls... 
And steamed tapioca with peanuts as dipping instead of Gula Melaka... 
Their Avocado shake is the best... very thick and generous with the fruit.... 
Our meal in-between lunch and dinner....

  1. I like the salted chicken rice and the avocado shake, does the salted chicken rice taste like hainanese chicken rice in any way?

  2. I like to eat the steamed tapioca. Don't think it will go well with peanut sauce. Prefer to eat it plain without any sauce.

  3. Fabulous food! I would have gained 5 kilos or more :(

  4. Salted chicken? Like the one very famous in Ipoh? Very nice ASEAN food here - I, for one, would love it a lot more than those western or whatever joints.

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....
