Takeaway Giant Bun Curry Prawns From Soo Har Yee Restaurant, Ipoh

ON ANOTHER LAZY EVENING, we ordered food again, this time from Beggar's Restaurant aka Soo Har Yee, direct translation.  

This restaurant is famous for the Beggar's chicken (made from herbs) but I did not order that.  Another signature dish is their Curry Bread.  There are three options we can choose from, the fillings can be either curry chicken, sweet sour prawns or crabs.  We chose prawns and besides this dish, we ordered another two more.... dishes which I could not cook at home, of course... LOL...

The food were delivered by the restaurant staff, not by Grab or Foodpanda and no delivery charges since the cost came to around RM116.  This was our dinner on that rainy evening.... 

I was surprised to see the big bun in a big nice box.... 
The bun was still warm and soft... 
Upon opening.... 
I am not a good food blogger....
When we started "tearing" up the bun, I forgot to take pictures of the fillings!
That should be the most important part, right?
Compared to the two other dishes, doesn't the bun look giantic?
Braised yam with pork... RM25
This is salted egg chicken..... RM10 I think....
There are 11 big prawns inside the Big Bun... RM76
I think it is really worth ordering... LOL... 
We finished the whole bun except for the bottom layer...
Cos we had white rice too.... 
Well, it was certainly a Big Dinner for us... 
We thought of ordering this Giant Bun once again...
Maybe the next time with crabs...
I make sure that I will get my camera ready!!

    Yes, what does the filling look like? I love those curry buns, used to enjoy the ones in Penang but that's a long long time ago. They had it here but they wrapped the curry inside with cling wrap so I never went back for more - dunno safe or not, the plastic cooked inside the bun.

    Good price for all the food. I guess with hands occupied with peeling the prawns so no hands to take photos.

    I miss the big bun from this restaurant but this place too far from my place. Making me hungry now. All 3 dishes also I like.

    Prawns are easier to eat than crabs. Yummy, I miss that.

    Wow such a huge bun! The braised yam with pork must be very flavourful too.

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....
