Bonding At People's Park Cheong Loi

HAVE WALKER WILL GO!!!

This morning I woke up at around 10am after some staggered sleep during the early dawn.  First thing I logged in was my whatsApp messages and it was good news when I read my group's messages.  Someone suggested going for lunch in a secluded shop in old town and someone was also willing to pick me up!!  YAY!!  I wanna go...... and hop hop again!!

This shop is located in old town inside People's Park... I really couldn't imagine that there is such a stall inside the narrow lane here.

In fact the shop is right at the end of the small shops.....
Right at the very end... 
Called Cheong Loi.... *Future*
Bigger version of the signboard...
The last shop here..... the tables were almost full when we arrived around 12pm...
Thanks to my friend who arrived early to book a table for the five of us....
Most of the tables were waiting for food....
Some are prepared food....
The chef behind the crowd....
Another one in front... working without stopping...
My young buddy with her sweet smile....
And one with all grins only.....
Waited almost half hour before the soup arrived... old melon soup...
Then the fresh clams came.... fresh and tasty!
Stewed pork knuckles!
Stir-fried kangkung.... 
And the best dish was the steamed "Wan Yue".... 
We were asked whether we wanted the whole piece or just half...
Of course... The WHOLE piece!!
And for the four dishes with one soup, the bill came to RM67!
Thank you for bringing me for my first meal of the day...
It will last till my dinner time cos I ate so much!!!!

    The makan place looks shabby but the food is so good! Usually places like this, no frills no glamour, but can get good food at affordable prices.

    Such a lovely place. I would love to go there. These places have character, not like those new, lifeless, pretentious places. Sad that there are not many left now...

    Notice a typo. 1st paragraph. 10pm. Should be "10am". ^^

    I love going to such stall for food. You could get nice and cheap food at such place. Love all the dishes you girls had.

    So many years in Ipoh and we didn't even know about this place. It is so well hidden.

    wow, indeed a very retro looking place but this place is surely attracting people to dine there, look at the crowd!! and you mentioned the kitchen crew work non-stop and you had to wait for 30 minutes before the dishes started serving.. i see the photos and definitely worth the wait, all looks so delicious~~ :)

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....
