Crispy Pork Knuckle At Bonnie's Dining Place, Bercham, Ipoh

SAW A NEW PLACE ADVERTISED IN FB... and quickly informed my Ipoh foodie friend about it.  Together we arranged to try it out one fine evening and the day finally came.  Initially we thought of having something light but ended up ordering something really "heavy" ... The place is called Bonnie's Dining at Bercham which serves western and asian food.

Normally I would opt for Asian food but in this place, one must try their Crispy Pork Knuckle.  I know I must not take too much meat but then.... the temptation was just too strong for me to resist. Eventually we ended up ordering just two dishes from the menu and we shared among ourselves, the three of us.  Phew.... at least I do not have to do double workout the next day!

While waiting, we looked around and captured a few pictures....
A painting on Roosters was displayed at the side of the shop.... 
No patrons at the time we arrived.. 
We had the whole place to ourselves till much later... 
We ordered a plate of Smoked Duck Aglio Olio... RM16 something... 
Portion was quite big... I tried a bit of the noodles and a piece of meat....
Kind of saving space for the Pork Knuckle!
And it finally arrived after we finished the noodles.... RM39.90
This dish needs time to get it crispy again, I guess... 
Some special sauce to go with the knuckle... something sweet, sour and spicy... 
Nice combination!
Portion is not enormously big... 
Well, probably I am a Big Fan of this.... 
Normally I will skip the mashed potatoes... 
But surprisingly, they are very well marinated and suitable for my buds!
I ended up eating most of it... sorry, friends!
Next time no sharing with me, right?
LOL...

    Wah, lots of collagen for you and your two other friends from the pork knuckles. Looks crispy and tasty. The duck pasta looks good 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....
