Kitchen Stories For Four

KITCHEN STORIES FOR US FOUR...

We made our way to Taman Johor Jaya, it was nearly an half hour drive to this part of the area.  The last time I came to Kitchen Stories shop was in April last year.  This shop is famous for their Teochew dishes, the name has changed not too long ago for the old couple has retired and now the business is taken over by the younger generation.  It is a good thing to preserve the authenticity of the food, coming from the Teochew clan.  Not many youngsters are into this type of hand-me-down food nowadays, they are more into the new concept, cafes and fusion.

For oldies like me, I still prefer to go to "olden" kind of food and dishes and these were what we ordered when we went there during a weekday.  It was almost 2pm and by the time we finished our lunch, the shop was going to close for the day. :)
So they have recommendations for the day... 

The menu on the wall if one is not sure what to order.... 
The crowd was still there even though it was already 2pm... 
Specially requested for this Drunken chicken... Lor Mai Jau... 
VERY BEST!! 
*if there is such an expression!*
Bitter gourd with eggs... 
Claypot porridge with fresh fish....
Something like this..... 
Spinach to balance up... 
This is special... Shrimp Roll.. very crunchy and nice!
Homestyle Pork Trotters to boost up collagen... and cholesterol? 
LOL.... 
Lunch for the four of us with the above dishes came to around RM103... 
Not too bad.. I would love to go again for the Drunken Chicken anytime!

    I love the big picture menu on the wall. There is no doubt about what you order. I wish all places did this. The claypot porridge and fish is what I would love to taste!

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....
