paiseh for the lack of updates...

have been quite a boring few days lately, except for the 2 nights out with a close friend who came back from Singapore to attend another friend's wedding as well as to sort some stuff out for his own wedding coming September...

Image
the to be husband & wife... congrats dude...

he's the first amongst us life-long buddies getting tied down, so we're gonna hold one hell of a bachelor night party for him before his big day, and talks/arrangements are already underway...

Image
got my car washed... after like 1 month+ because it has been raining all the time in town... :(

Image
also helped out at one of the annual celebrations of the association...

Sunday relaxation...

went for a swim on the Sunday evening... however this time it was not at the usual StamPark swimming pool but at Somerset Gateway.

Image
the lobby...

Image
top floor of the building, typical facilities namely pool, gym, sauna etc are all here...

Image
the rooftop swimming pool... overseeing Kuching South...

Image
the other side, overlooking the golden triangle of Kuching...

apart from swimming, went for a few rounds of sauna... and man it was freakin' hot. it has been at least 4 years since I last step into one, and it actually felt good... will definitely go again... and seriously considering the membership... hehehe...

more pictures:

Image
great view from the rooftop...

Image
yea, that's the building where I work in, so it's just a stone throw away if I were to consider coming here for a swim or workout after work...

Image
it started to rain at around 430pm, but we're already done...

new gadget...

got myself an air ionizer from Super8 on the weekend Saturday ...

pretty good stuff I should say... coz it really eliminates smoke odor in the car... hehehe...

Image
got it installed at the back of the centre console...

scoops...

nowadays in Kuching, when you think about going for ice-creams, you'll no longer only think of Sunny Hill Ice-Creams. This new place - Scoops will also pop up in mind... plus, it's also more strategically located - right smack opposite Hilton Kuching...

so this boring Sunday night, it was decided that ice-cream was gonna be the theme rather than the usual beer... and off we went over to Scoops...

after trying out (testing) almost half the favours available, she decided on having *I forgot oredi*, while I went for the Tiramisu favour...

Image
you'll get spoilt by choice...

Image
my Tiramisu ice-cream... got liquor taste sommore... hehehe...

Image
very soothing place I should say... good place to hangout and watch the Kuching night life goes by...

Image
can choose to sit inside (got air-con) or outside if you wanna puff, and feel the breeze rather...

early Father's Day dinner

we didn't wanna join in all the crowd for the actual Father's Day dinner this coming weekend, so went out celebrated the event a week earlier...

Image
went to this seafood restaurant@RH Plaza

Image
crispy duck... probably the best dish we had...


Image
FuRong Tofu... normal stuff...

Image
BBQ pork knuckles... gotta dip the meat with the sauce first before eating, else it's too dry...

Image
salted chicken... pretty decent dish, albeit not salty enough...


the bill came up to be slightly over RM100, quite reasonable considering the portion, because we had to tapao about 30% of the food as we were too full already... too much meat... :p

Image

makan @ Pandan Delight...

I have not been to this Thai restaurant for almost 2 years, and after some 2 hours shopping at Parkson, decided to go over for some spicy stuff...

Image
pretty cosy place... sommore no one was there that time, so it was extra nice...

we ordered:

Image
Thai style oyster omelet... taste like those typical local ones, but spicier...

Image
seafood tom yam... very spicy... got me sweating all over...

Image
raw shrimps... never tried this before, and it actually turned out very nice...

the bill come out to be abit over RM30 only... a reasonable price for Thai food...
