Alan’s Birthday at Ecoba

Celebrated Alan's birthday at Ecoba over the weekend. 

  Lots of drinks and laughter but it felt more like a mini MS gathering to me.

Diver’s Den

Just completed my second diving class last night.

Half way through the class, it started to rain when we were doing our stuff under the water with our regulator on and all that. So I was watching different sizes of raindrops dancing on the surface of water from below, which I find kinda cool.

We have to learn how to install oxygen tank into our BCD jackets, regulator, weight management, all kind of things to expect in times of emergency and how to deal with them etc.

Working Out at Batu Caves

Few days ago the girls suggested to go to Batu Caves for a workout after work.

Workout? as in exercise?? In Batu Cave??? You may wonder…

Yes you heard that right!

The girls who have conquered Mt. KK claim that Batu Cave is the best place for mountain training, better than any stepping machines you can get in the gym! These steep flight of steps really works the core muscles around the legs area, hamstring and pelvic and most importantly, it builds stamina. With some level of consistency, your body will result in super toned calves and a perky butt!

There are 272 Steps! I kid you not

 

The place stink of bat poo real bad! I was sniffing my towel the whole time.

Day Trip to Ipoh

It’s been a while last since I went on a road trip like that. After a few smses exchanged on a Saturday evening, LihBin, PohSze and I were all set for a day trip to Ipoh the next morning. I did have a hidden agenda though, I wanted to go back to visit Bin and 10 days old baby Charlotte.

 

This was taken at Kellie’s Castle in Batu Gajah yesterday. More about the trip later

Happy April

Café Café, KL

I’ve been meaning to blog about this place for ages but never got round to doing it till now. Café Café is an Italian + French restaurant in KL, a place I’ve heard of for many years through word of mouth, blogs and forums alike. Apparently it’s the only “Parisian” restaurant (or close to for the lack of a better word) ever existed in Malaysia… few months ago I finally had a chance to experience it myself. 

Reviews suggested the restaurant wasn’t easy to find; it's true. hint: Once you reach Edinburgh roundabout, look left the shop is right in front you.

  

Restaurant was tastefully decorated with dimly lit chandeliers, “Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain” was playing in the background, overall ambience was quite romantic. However, I couldn’t feel I was anywhere near Paris at all. Did I set expectation a tad too high? I find it really weird when some diners started walking in with their shorts and slippers while me and dining buddy all dolled up for the New Year Eve celebration. 

        

But food wise I couldn’t complain though…

Escargot in garlic and parsley

Honey King Prawn in truffle sauce

 

Duck Confit

Can’t remember if it was a T-Bone or Ribeye already…

   

Just the way how I like it done
