Bonda Lemang

We were driving around (yet again).. and got lost somewhere in the heart of Kampung Melayu Subang...

The nice thing about getting lost is that sometimes, you see some pretty interesting things.

Like this Bonda Lemang for example. It just popped out of no where..

We stopped to buy the nice, hot , steamy, fresh lemang from the Bonda.

I wanted to eat it on the spot because I was so hungry, but apparently, we were still looking for our lunch destination.. so, the lemang had to wait!

Ah.. finally we get to the location we are looking for.. Bandar Pinggiran Subang.. the funny thing about this area is that though it is called 'subang', it is under the Shah Alam Postcode.

We see Restoran Sin Seng Leh and park.

We heard that this place served up the spinach wantan noodle and we just had to try it.

We ordered one normal Charsiew Wantan Mee, (RM3.80 small)

...and one spinach Wantan Mee. (RM4.50 large)
The thing i liked most about the spinach wantan mee was the sauce that came it. The clear sauce was sweet and tasty. It makes a change from the black wantan mee sauce.

The spinach noodle did not disappoint. It was soft and springy whilst a little more starchy than the normal noodle. It tasted 'greener', so to speak.

When we had finished paying the bill, we saw Chua Soi Lek on the way out... (don't you think the resemblance is uncanny?!)

Seeing red

At Chicken Cuizine,
They wear Yellow T-shirts , drive Yellow Getz cars and sport Red hair.. ;)

We were in Shah Alam visiting a friend and were told to go to Chicken Cuizine for some Hakka Mee.

Incidentally they run a catering business here too.

Here it is . The Hakka Noodles - pretty tasty with crunchy Wantan. RM4.00

Hubby asked for the famous curry mee sauce ( this curry does not come with the hakka mee) so that he could try out the taste. Adding it to the hakka noodles was a bit weird, but the taste was really not bad!

This is the pork noodle dish that I had at RM4.00.. not very impressive but edible. Next time, we plan to go next door...

Conquering my Acrophobia ...

Follow that old rickety road... off the beaten track...

Keep following the fence...

Until you see..
a HUGE field! and there I will be... waiting...


That's what our paragliding instructor told us...!

And there he was.. true to his word... eventhough dusk was approaching fast.. he waited for us

Yikes! Do I have to do this??! Don't make me go.... lol... :(

This chapter I would like to call... "Conquering my acrophobia"!



Sorry lovey... everyone has to go.. yells our ruddy faced instructor... !

And I tell you....

Boy was I glad I did! It was one of the most awesome rides of my life!
Up... up.....

... and away....!

That's me.. that tiny black spec in the sky!

The place : somewhere on a field, in a kampung.. North Port Klang, Klang...

What you need : Nothing but yourself and a sense of adventure! (check out this activity here link)

Time: Normally weekends, noon onwards, when the winds are less strong.

We rushed back, in time for dinner with our friends, at Pasta de Gohan... Sunway Pyramid. We had read so much about this place from other bloggers we just had to try it!

What can we say.. the pasta was good... but perhaps all that "flying" had our adrenaline pumping and we were therefore thoroughly famished... and found that, for the prices (averaging RM2o plus - RM30 plus plus, depending if you have plain egg and bacon topping ... or high end seafood..), the portions were really small... !

The pizza crust was almost wafer thin. We had Carbonara Pizza which was really delicious, but again, tiny ! I could have eaten it all by myself in one sitting... and then some!

maybe next-time, we will do the SET.. which at RM14.80, seemed much more value for money!

Pasta: 7/10

Pizza:7/10

Taste: Excellent (8/10)

Price : Small portions for those prices

Service : Good (Plenty of eager beaver staff)

Skytrex !

Oh.. this looks so EASY...


Or so, he makes it seem...


our instructor was so agile... we thought.. to ourselves...


No Sweat!... 'piece-of-cake'...

Then... we saw the actual HEIGHT !!!

Arrrgh... ! not funny. Thank God i was designated photographer.. coz i am way scared of heights.. and that's putting it mildly... try cold sweat, seeing black spots.. then white... then blacking out :P

Anyway, here are some shots of the amazing feats my friends accomplished...

They'd put Cirque du Soleil to shame, i tell ya... :D









.
.
Phew.. made it! All in all, the course took 2 hours.. but apparently it felt longer... and man were we famished at the end of it..
.
.

We were soooooo hungry, and it was late by the time we finished, so we didn't make it to Klang town for the 'hardcore bakuteh'. Instead, one of our friends who was familiar with Klang recommended Teck Huat to save time and to get our stomachs filled QUICK.

Hmmm.. you've never seen a group demolish their food faster i tell ya!

So verdict? I don't know if we were really hungry, but the food tasted pretty all right.
However, this bakuteh is not the herbally sort, so if you like you BKT tasting stronger and infused in Chinese herbs, then, this is not the BKT for you.

Whatever it was, we left feeling full and happy with the day's work.. !
