Going Kemaman (Part 1) + Restoran Kemaman

I had a trip to the east - Kemaman with my family in the end of May; to welcome the arrival of summer! We have chosen this place was because there is beach; and also to unwind and have a break from the hectic schedule.

There isn't much Chinese restaurant here. We started our Kemaman trip with Restoran Kemaman for lunch. They served quite homely taste food and stuffed crab. Well, Stuffed crab is everywhere in Kemaman!

Stuffed Crab. The mix of minced crab meats, onions, and some other ingredients, and finally filled in back; covered with a thin batter and deep fried into golder brown. it tasted okay and not the best throughout this trip.

Food Crawl: Jaya One (Part 1)

Food Craw is another thing I love. I used to have food crawling session with a gang of close friends or makan kaki-s. We did an extreme one in Ipoh for 3 days and also a short one at Balakong. Just some weeks back, I received an invitation to have food crawl in Jaya One.

But noooo, it is food for the skin.


This is the Lemon Cleanser I bought it from My Beauty Cottage and I have been using it for quite some times. My mum has always "implants" me with the theory - "You are what you Eat" and this applies well to the skin too.  

This Lemon Cleanser contains:
Lemon with Vitamin C, will help to tone and refresh the skin
Herbs oil will help to soften and enrich the skin
Bioflavonoids moisturize and nourish the skin
Biocomplex, an antioxdant booster of Vitamin A, Vitamin C ester, Vitamin E, Coenzyme Q10 and alpha lipoic acid

Tea Party with delicious bites ♥

Shhhhhh....
be quiet, we are now stepping into Citygal's wonderland... ...

***

It has been a long time since out last high tea together at
Cafe Stelle by Raffles. We always longed for another session of high tea, but high-tea-ing at those places is always costly and burns our pocket. So, why not make our own high tea session at home?


Chapter 1 # Getting ready

Sakura @ Jalan Imbi, Kuala Lumpur

Dining in Sakura Restaurant winded me back to my parents' years.
About 25 years ago, they used to have their dates here.
Hands in Hands, walked in and dined.
Had plates of Nasi Lemak at RM 4 (per plate).
Back to their old days, it was considered a splurge for them...

DSC_3171

Sakura, established since 1977, for famous local cuisine; needs no further introduction, has been a landmark and touristy spot too for the foreigners.

Tom Yum Seafood Soup served with bread and butter

DSC_3130-1

Nasi Lemak (RM 14.80) with coconut steamed rice, served with chicken curry, sambal ikan bilis, floss, hard-boiled egg, acar, and fresh cucumber. THe chicken curry was good and sambal was very spicy; but the coconut steamed rice was slightly not that 'lemak; (a little bit lack of the coconut milky fragrant).

Pla dib @ The Heritage Village, Seri Kembangan

If it was not The Star, We would not be able to find out this hidden gem.

DSC_3053

Pla dib, the Bangkok's top-ranked Thai fusion restaurant, has just started their business 3 months ago, situate at here Heritage Village, Seri Kembangan; facing a great view of 50-acre lake; serving the very interesting Thai fusion dishes.

DSC_3063

Pla dib means "raw fish" in Thai.


We ran through the menu - pasta, pizza, main courses, fusion appetizers... it is more like Japanese fusion dishes or Italian cuisine. there was no sight of tom yum too.
