Dining Out At Asada Yipin Ramen

FELT LIKE EATING RAMEN... and my friends suggested going to Mad Ramen in old town, Ipoh.  I was told that the Ramen there was quite nice and it is always difficult to get a table especially in the evening.  True enough, when my friend called up reservation, she was told that the place was full at that moment.  Oooh.. the food must be good then and we better not go when the place is full and crowded.

We settled for another ramen place called Asada Ramen (Yipin Ramen) at Medan 10.  First time visit for the four of us and upon entering the premises, only one table was occupied.  Normal days if we see less people, that means the food might be so-so only and we might bypass the place.  But nowadays, it is different, we prefer to dine in quieter places and don't have high expectation when it comes to the taste.  

Each of us ordered a bowl of ramen RM15.90 each and a side dish to be shared... 
Ramen in Black Sesame soup...
Ordered by my friend... 
I tried a bit of the soup... 
Though the black appearance of the soup is not attractive, 
surprisingly it tasted aromatic... 
And so the saying goes: Never judge the book by its cover... 
Ramen in Miso soup.... 
I don't really like the sourish miso... 
My friend and I ordered the Pork soup... 
Initially we wanted the spinach soup...
It was sold out...
So we settled for the porky one...
Not really to my liking cos the strong porky smell... 
I should have ordered the chicken soup instead... 
And 3 pieces of fish cake RM5.... 
Nothing to shout about... just edible...
As I said, don't expect too much of the food quality these days...

    Black sesame soup? Here the ramen to go for is the black garlic oil soup. Ah, you are so adventurous cos u dine out already. Here the cases are still high so we haven't dined out yet.

    You make me crave for ramen! Very true lah, sometimes the pork ramen has strong porky smell. I don't like it and would spoil my enjoyment of the ramen.

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....
