There is a syabu-syabu (Japanese styled steamboat) restaurant at the newly renovated food court on the 3rd floor of Queensbay Mall (the cinema floor) but each time we passed by, we never thought of patronizing it since PiggyBeng is not a huge fan of steamboat meals.
Then, while shopping on new year eve recently, I decided [...]

We are not a huge fan of pizzas so we rarely thought of having any since the pizzas here are extremely pathetic. I can still remember my bad experience with Pizza Hut a while back. I can bet with anyone we could never get good pizzas here (from those fast food chain outlets) like the [...]

This morning I brought the kids out to Tesco to have lunch as well as to stock up on our daily groceries. Everything went well until when we were on our way out of the parking lot. One dumb ass just parked his/her car right in front of my car (even where there were a [...]

On the 28th of December last year, most parts of Penang island were effected by the water disruption due to some upgrading work by PBA. Though we kept water in our house which is more than sufficient, I felt that it is extremely inconvenient since we are so used to having the taps. So, to [...]

Just when I thought I was done with my CNY posts, I discovered we took some photos of the annual CNY light up at Kek Lok See a few nights before Chap Goh Meh. We did not go up the hill this year since it is more or less the same. The one and only [...]

However, thinking that [...]

The weekend before we went to KL, we had dim sum at Town Steamboat Restaurant. I was not aware of their new business (selling dim sum) until recently. All along I thought they only operates at night doing steamboats which we visited some time back. Before they took over the premise, Red Tea House used [...]

On 10.10.10, after our scrumptious vegetarian meal at PiggyBeng’s aunt’s place, we decided to pop by the Air Itam Dam for some light workout since the weather on that day was beautiful. Cloudy but no rain and not warm so it was a perfect time to visit that place. It was Baby G’s first time [...]

If you are a Hokkien, probably you’ll know about the current festival. Yes, the 9 Emperors Festival just started a few days ago. The celebration begins on the 1st day of the 9th Lunar month where most Hokkiens will go on a 10 days vegetarian feat 10 days prior to the 9th day. The entire [...]
