North Indian Food At Old Andersonian, Ipoh

SOMETHING HOT AND SPICY...

Weather is super hot nowadays in Ipoh and of course, in many parts throughout Malaysia too.  To add to the "hotness" we went for spicy food at this restaurant located within the confines of SMK Anderson.  Old Anderson Cafeteria is hidden within the vicinity grounds of the school field and very well known for their South Indian food in the afternoon and North Indian food at night, serving the best of both worlds on a platter.  Isn't that special? 

I have been here few times, all in the evenings and never tried their lunch before.  I heard that they serve banana leave with rice during the day, their entrees are irresistible too!!

For this evening, the four of us ordered a "rice-less" meal, we opted for their special Naan and Puri instead.  These are what we ordered.... oh yes, everything we ordered, we requested for "less spicy"... and they came out wonderfully right for our taste buds!

Boneless Fillets...
Okra with their special sauce...
Sizzling Tandoori Chicken... 
Lentils is my favourite... 
Garlic Naan...
And a few other Naan and Puri we ordered.... 
On hot scorching days like this, we went for the famous Cendol
at Old Town, Ipoh Padang...
This is new to me... Mango Cendol...
I wanted to order the Durian Cendol but unfortunately it was sold out!
Not giving up yet... we will go again!

    I so love Indian cuisine, bursting with all the herbs and spices that go into the cooking.

    Everything look so scrumptious. I wonder if the naan can beat the one in Malacca. :D

    Gosh! All red and yellow, really 'hot' but I like it. I don't mind North Indian cuisine once in a while.

    Mango cendol is new to me too.

    It’s a tradition in southern part of India to serve food in banana plates. It has its own reasons plus its extremely eco-friendly.

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....
