Birthday Dinner At Lanna Thai, Ipoh

EX-CLASSMATES THIS TIME ROUND...

Her birthday is around the corner and one of my ex-classmates suggested celebrating an early round for the birthday girl.  We have to be considerate, right?  When the real day comes, she will be celebrating with her own family, hence we have to "book" her a few days before her real date.  This time my friend suggested going to Lanna Thai, they have not been here before except for yours truly.  I told them that the food plus the price has nothing to shout about but something to shout about is the ambience.  And after the meal, they agree with me....
I was the first one to reach there... so I took my time taking these pictures....
It was only 6.15pm when I arrived... 
We were supposed to meet at 6.30pm... 
So I have lots of time taking these shots right and left.... 
Front and Back.... 
Supposed to be a Thai restaurant....
But looks very chinese-sey... 
As for the dishes.. we have the stinky beans with prawns...
Steamed Fish Thai Style...
Braised Trotter without bones...
Pandan chicken...
Lemongrass chicken wings...
Tomyam clear soup... 
And the bill came to an astonishing RM226... 
Birthday girl ...
And the Famous Five.. 
Sorry, I mean ... the Foodie Five

    It does look like Chinese restaurant with all those decor. The food looked good.

    Happy birthday to your friend. So nice to be able to meet up with old friends.

    Decor looks rather Chinese - I guess that's in line with the season, Chinese New Year coming. Food also looks Chinese, not quite like Thai.

    Wow, this place is gorgeous! I especially love the square lights combined with the lanterns.

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....
