Early bday Dinner @ Riverside Grill, Casa Del Rio

Since the exam is coming up, i've decided to celebrate my bday a little earlier so that my frens n i wont b thinking bout it thru out dinner. I'm someone who's rly bad at receiving surprises.. so i have to plan my own Bday dinner. I gotta know who's coming, what they're wearing, where wer'e going and wat i'm ordering. Lol~ which reminds me, im rly horrible when it comes to going for vacation... but that's another story..

So i thought of going to this new-ish place called the Riverside Grill at Casa Del Rio, boutique hotel in Melaka. I called to make reservation under my name.. And =.= This is wat they welcome me with.. Table for four, wit a leaf written "mr Aren". Don't tell me the Starbucks girl works here too??? Nyways, the deco and ambience is stunning. Warm lights + english chairs + grogeous frameworks and elegant decors.. Hahaha. i made the right choice~
We started with a little appetizers of Deep Fried soft shell crab wit tartare sauce and caeser salad. Interupted by the manager offering me a discount card.. and then never gv me the discount card =.= apakah..



The best dish of the night was this Crispy pressed Moroccan Lamb. Lol~ this dish is just too amazing.. cravings~

Then we had Angels hair Aglio olio wit tiger prawns.. This one.. not so good.. taste like misua..
This is also another rly rly good dish.. Parpadelle wit spiced crust salmon =) YUMZ!
Then we had alot o cheesecake =p kakakaka~

Also this rly touching, heart warming, ego-boosting (i got called sexy 6 times in this card.. ) Bday card.. =) p/s: i do keep all my bday cards n postcards n loveletters since sec school =)
Complimentary Bday cake from Casa Del Rio, also a complimentary Bday song =.= which won't end.. and the staff queued up to shake my hand =.= soooo weird.. HAHAHAHA.
The gang~ Thx guys for the great company.. And you're most welcome for the awesome dinner =) HAHAHAHAAH <3

p/s: Best toilet experience ever... =) If ya noe wat i mean ^_^

Lunch @ Kampachi, Equatorial.

Had an amazing lunch at Kampachi's. I had so much sushi, sashimi, teppanyaki beef n squid, udon, ramen. Hahaha~ SO much salmon n tuna n pomphret...
I love love the macha ice cream =s And also the freshly made dorayaki =) hehehe. yumz! so worth getting fat over ^_^

Goin' To The Chapel, Gonna Get Married~

Was having a rly boring day in campus.. And i rly wanna buy something, just to relieve my boring, slow-paced life. hahaha~ and so i bought this.. A lil green apple candy ring. =.= And no.. it didnt work.. Not only is the item small, and inexpensive.. it takes too long to finish, and it ended up in the bin =.= Retail therapy has to be something that burns a hole in your pocket.. baru u can feel that zing!
So i decided to buy something from the Mermaid shop aka Starbux. A cup of mispelled coffee just wouldn't do it this time. So i got myself a cup. Tadaa~ A black cup wit elephant pic on it. And now i'm craving for another one.. Sigh.. the therapy that i need~ =.=

King & I: Dinner fit for a Prince..

I went to try this Thai restaurant near my place, which is called King & I Restaurant. I thought it wud be one of those hotels, claiming to sell thai food and sells fried kuey teow and calls it Pad Thai. So we asked the waitress, which speaks fluent siamese and English, to recomend my parents and i, for a delish dinner. And my.. was it delish~
We started off with appetisers, Meang Kam, which is pepper leaves with toasted coconuts, dried shrimps, carrot slices, spicy peanut sauce and a thai bird chili. This is rly rly good, the perfect balance of sweet, sour, spicy, salty and bitter. It has all the flavour component and is very interesting to eat. Yums!
Steamed fish with spicy lime sauce. This is the best dish. The fish is fresh grouper, with this amazing garlicky, spicy sauce, which has a tonne of lime flavour. And it packs a punch of flavour. Makes you sweat type of spicy, thank god for their super strong aircon =p

And of course we ordered the must, tom yum goong, which was rly flavourful and tangy with fresh prawns and mushrooms. And also this amazing grilled beef, which has an amazing marinade and is cooked to the perfect medium-rare.

And for dessert, my fave thai dessert of all times, sticky rice mango =p heheehe~ the portion here is small, but they have warned us before hand, that serving it small was intentional, so we can taste more different varieties of food. And they were right =)

p/s: Look ma! they serve Poo here =p

Still can't get it right...

The annoying thing wit starbucks ppl is they never get my name right =.=

Fine.. From now on, everytime i go for coffee, i'll give some random funny name..

I always wanted to be called.. Ah Boy aloud at a coffee place.. Or maybe i can try to be called Robocop. Oh! Pikachu~ =p kekekekeke~ zzzzz... i need to b more creative with this.. =.=

Suggestions?

Ra Ra Ra Ah Ah Ah!

Lady Gaga Live in Singapore May 28th? Muahahahah! woke up early and called my fren in Sg to help me get the tickets ^_^ Voila! Looks like imma be donning my Gaga Outfits! Weeeee.. I'm so excited =) Who else's going? ^_^
Oh wat shud i wear? stress!!!

p/s: Halloween came early? Woots!

Lunch @ Plan B

I've always prefered to hangout in Bangsar, i liked the pretentiousness u instantly get when u step into Bangsar. hhaahah~ =p I bugged MJ to bring me to Bangsar and we had brunch at Plan B. We ordered vegetable soup, lamb pie and eggs benedicts. =) Not too bad. kekeke ^_^




What i'd do to have poached eggs in Melaka.. =( sigh~

Lunchner @ Market Hall

Went up to Kl last weekend.. Didnt have lunch, reached at 5pm, and decided i was too hungry to have dinner at 7ish, and went for a lunchner instead =) I decided to go to Market Hall, because i remembered having brunch there, and it was alright. So, we ordered an Aussie burger, which was.. Not very good. Lol~
I myself had a spicy chicken aglia olio, which is alright, definitely not the best. But my fave is the caeser salad. Which i also had the last time i was there. and yeah.. The salad's really good. I'm a sucker for runny egg yolk on my crisp salad. =) But the overall dining experience was, below average. Should have went to Spasso instead=.=
What made the night so much better was to receive a big bloom of blue hydrangeas.. hahaha~ Made my day..

p/s: hydrangeas > roses > bunga tahi ayam

Side Orders

Funny how everytime i say my name, some people will still mis-spell it. I mean, there's quite alot of famous Aaron's out there. If u're english speaking, there's no excuse, it's the 1st biblical name, there's the not-so-famous Carter brother. If u're chinese, there's no excuse. There's the para para sakura guy. If u're malay, also no excuse, u don't wanna piss off the KL Gangster (yes..=.= i watched the movie.. hahaha and it was gooood~) So, it's still weird how come some people still can spell my name as Aren =.=

Oh, and know, the Starbucks person was not an Indian. It was a chinese girl =.= hahaha~
p/s: I get what i want. =)

Molten Chocolatey Goodness..

On Vday, I went for ice cream with my close single friends.. hahaha~ it was rly fun, because Haagen Daz was filled with lots of couples in couple tee, and parents with tiny kids reminding them of what happen on Vday few years ago.. hahaha~ The night was going great until Haagen Daz decided to play a long list of depressing song.. From Adele's Someone Like You and Don't You Remember, to Colbie Cailat's I Never Told You (Major depressing, no?)
But lol~ it was major fun also to talk about our past rships and make fun of our future rships. Kakakakak~ =p And oh, ice cream was good.. We had so much ice cream that night, i probably need a week to burn it off =)
Weee. Vday = VadgeDay..

Happy Valentine's Day.. Or.. Happy Tuesday~

Come on people.. don't be so bitter and say happy tuesday.. It's the one day of the year that being overly romantic and annoyingly mushy is allowed. Hehehe~ Nyhoo! just wanna tell u, i'm going for my date now ^_^ I memang selekeh... =p

Have fun guys ^_^

And It's Valentine's Already =)

if you haven't found a date for Vday, u're probably too late.. if u already have a date for tmr. Congrats=) hehehehe.
stolen this pic from FMJ (kekekeke. amarylis double bloom~ )

So if u've read the news, some religious groups are trying to ban Valentine's Day, and do some arresting for people who go out on this night to intimate restaurants and romantic settings, because to their narrow-mindedness, a dinner on Vday, with oddly-shaped pizzas (=.= dump him!), and ferero rocher bouquet (dump him already!) indirectly equals to sex.

Sigh~ it's a shame political leaders have never attended a single class of biology. Ehem.. Here's lesson 1 in human reproduction.. When two people are in love with each other, and they are both consenting adults. They will do the nastay nastay in the bedroom, which involves alot of thrusting, nudity, sweating, moaning, and probably, just probably, a calling out of the Almighty's name. And no kids, sitting across the table from each other, trying to heimlich a 0.3carat diamond ring, because ur oh-so-thoughtful partner baked it in the cupcake, does not, i repeat, DOES NOT = Sex!

So for the rest of you, enjoy ur night tmr. One night of the year that we give in to cliche's flying babies in diapers and overpriced flowers. Oh and~ i dun mind this for my Vday present.. Thx in advance! WHoever who gets it for me.. gets a free... hug n a kiss =p (unless u're old, and have some weird infection.. eeew =.= )

p/s: im not a coach fan.. == but this latest Huge Guiness for Coach print on canvas, reversible soft leather tote has me all gooey inside.. =p

Houston, We've got a Problem...

If i were to name few of the best voices ever graced this world. Whitney Houston would be wayyy up there. I woke up and read the news all over Facebook saying that, the legendary voice has passed away at 48. Part of me was at disbelief and told myself it was just an internet hoax. But i went on reading news feeds and, finally came to accept that perhaps one of the greatest vocalist ever, has left us.

I'm not going to go on and on about how many Grammy's or how many time her albums have gone Platinum. I've always listened to her and at the same time loved those parodies where they make fun of her and her coke-days. The first song i ever loved from whitney? I remember wayyy back, when i was still living with my grandparents. I was probably 8 or 9, and my dad used to buy these compilation CD's which has the latest musics from various artists. One of it i can still remember vividly, the first track was 'I'm Every Woman'. I listened to it once, and got hooked, and i know in my past life, i was a strong, black, woman. =)

Just to share one of my favourite songs of all time. I'm gonna miss you..
