The Tour Guide To Food

I WILLL FOLLOW YOU...  You, as in my neighbour.... He is really a food taster, wherever there is good food, he will be there...

Oh, good food to him also means the price must be reasonable besides the food being nice and he is not all for the fine dining type of food.  His passion of food takes him to the hawkers' stalls, food court, coffee shops and restaurants around Ipoh and outskirts as well.  

On this day, he "guided" us to a small town outside Ipoh called Kanthan.  It is a very small town, half an hour away from Ipoh and he likes to go there the varieties of food which mainly comes from the Hakka clan.
 
Our stop for lunch at these two shops....
An Ji sells a selection of dumplings made from this shop itself....
We bought a couple of this and that to take home.... 
Then we walked to the shop next door to have our lunch...
Eggplant with shrimps in sambal sauce...

Fried mantis ....
And steamed stingray with salted black beans....
I love this dish cooked this way instead of the normal grilled or curry sauce....
The bill came to around RM80 plus with drinks and rice for four persons...

    The best foods are to be had at hawker stalls, food court and kopitiam. How nice that you have a foodie neighbor to point you to the right direction. Fine dining is not for me, big ass plate but food portion so small hah...hah...hah...

    How I wish to have a great foodie neighbour like him when I am living alone now.
    Kanthan is a new place to me and I had to Google its location. Perak is such a big state with many affordable and delicious restaurants outside Ipoh. Lucky you.

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!

The Good, The Bad But Not Ugly

MISSING AND NOW BACK IN ACTION...  I checked back my last post and it was 8 March last month and today is 19 April, less than two months only.  So what has been happening in my life?  Lots and lots... good news, bad news, sad news... all concerning health and I guess this is our life cycle as we live day by day.   My health is also not that "fantastic" during the past few months, but mine is a small rock compared to giant boulder which my best buddy is undergoing... I guess some of you know what is happening to her from her blog posts.  I was totally devastated when this happened to her, my tears couldn't help falling and my heart goes out to her.  I am ashamed to say that instead of me giving the comfort that she needs, I am the one that have been receiving her strength in times like this.  She might be crushed physically but she is not broken in her spiritual mind and soul.  One word... "Unbreakable!"  She is a shining example..... "What can death do to m
