Genting Highland Skyway

Hubby, Khalis and I had a short retreat for the raya holiday in Genting Highlands.... just for one night... Stayed in Awana Genting Highlands Resort....
situated at the lower hill area of Genting....
we opt here instead of the hilltop area because we wanted to have a quite time for ourselves up there seems to be too pack and too many tourist....
we had bought a voucher (.. very very cheap....!! ) and the voucher includes a one night stay in a deluxe room...2 buffet breakfast... and 2 return tickets for Genting Skyway...
cool eeh...
so here's our trip ride up the hill in the genting skyway ...

on our way up.. we had some kind of emergency stop .. twice !!... the cab stopped suddenly... and then the skycab was swaying left.. right.. left.. right.... 100 ft below us was the jungle ... can u imagine !....
the second time it stopped slowly ... so i didn't get that swaying feeling ....


the free skyway return tickets !!

the main terminal near goh tong jaya

on our way up..

here.. the skyway cab stopped for about 3 minutes that had our heart pounding..

the second time it stopped .. i had a clear shot of the cab beside...

on our way back ...

me and hubby are not the type you would want to bring to a buffet style dining...
we just took a few plates .. and that was it...
then some coffee and plain water....
but the selection here was awesome... so much food.. malaysian cuisine... western... indian.. arabic... all sort of foods....
we sat near the balcony.. so we had a view of the golf club....

this is what i ate.... hihi.. not much eih..

Holiday Food Contest - Trip to Kuching TOPSPOT Seafood Paradise

Salam Syawal semua....

this post is actually for a contest by DIAN BIZZ CORNER - a very good friend of mine....
Click Here Dian BC Holiday Food Contest 


ok .. let's start.....
I love vacation... hey .. who doesn't .. hehe..
and i love taking pictures.....snap gambar saner... snap gambar sini... snap snap larr....tapi bile time food ajer.... tak sempat nak snap... waiter letak jer food atas table..ngap... letak nasi... ngap... letak la ape sajer.... terus ngap......hurmmm ......cam ne la nak amik gambor....
.... last 3 months .. i went off to Kuching with my best friends.... our theme for this vacation was
"leyparking with food"...

before i write off about my 'essay' on travel food....
i must highlight that ... certain people have certain 'requirements' in food choices and places....
some might prefer high class restaurant to dine in... (i do too...if i have enough $$$$... hihi)
and some might prefer a simple stall by the road .......
it all depends on the 'citarasa' of each individuals....

for me.... i'm a simple person..... if it serves high class tip top HALAL tasty dishes.... then it's good for me too...(and of course.. tempat dia haruzz la bersih jugak.... jgn la ada en.tikus bin mondok tetiber lalu depan laks..)

so....back to the story.....
i got no pics of the food with myself in it... but i manage to ask my fwens and search thru my handphone for some picture that i might took.......so here's what i got....(ada gak food yang da terlepas masuk perot) but... still i manage to get this....



mase menunggu makanan.... kene bawak khalis jejalan.... huhu......hubby and khalis
my fwen's husband busy taking pics......
large prawns...  soon to be crispy butter prawns.. heheh
menunggu makanan.......this is the table we booked.. but later had to move to another table.... sbb silap order kedai lain... hehe...... i'm taking the pics... hubby and khalis pergi jejalan...so yang tinggal kat meja is my fwens....

Siakap Tiga Rasa anyone???
my fwen with the handphone.... my fwen's husband and his son... and my hubby with Lil Khalis..... picking out the fresh seafood... memang tak dok diam bebudak nih....
this is the stall in front of us.... the best stall is beside it....

Khalis terpesona dgn Ketam Batu
more seafood....
ok.. this Prawn is actually larger than my palm.... yes .. lagi besar dari tapak tangan.... bayangkan ! there's even a size as big as 2 palms...
food for 6 perosn only...... a simple dinner... but taste so fresh and marvelous..

the place... haha.. maybe some of you might already know..... TOPSPOT Kuching..... at first sight ... i was captivated by the choices of fishes and all types of seafood you can imagine...... it's like a very big food court but selling the same stuff..... seafood ofcourse...
however, even tough there are offering the same menu.. each stall has thier own specialties of cooking ....... you can see there's dozens of stall side by side... selling the freshes catch of the day.....

PS : for muslims... do check out the place first with HALAL signs.....

the presentation of the food is SO-SO for me........
but the taste............ AWESOME.... totally marvelous.... plus the price is so cheap from KL....
the best dish of all.... huhu.... Crispy Butter Prawn..... meleleh you....................

this is my favorite dish of all..... Crispy Butter Prawn...nyum....! Separuh da masuk perut time gambar ini diambil......
made from Prawns, milk, butter, eggs and spices.....

Sempena bulan Syawal yang mulia ni.... kite haruz bersyukur atas kurnian Tuhan yang memberikan rezeki.... bak kate Kak Nora from Dian Bizz Corner.... 'ada sesetengah golongan yang maybe don't even have a food in their table for 2-3 days. So be grateful and be more generous during this holy month.'

Yes ...we all should... and nurin nak promo satu rumah anak2 yatim....
Rumah Anak Yatim Al-Munirah.... click here .. Rumah Al-Munirah
It's in Klang.... quite near to Bukit Rimau and JJ Bukit Tinggi...

i went there once (some few years back ) to make a personal donation of old clothes and some duit raya... (ada wat nazar dulu) and was told that this Home is NOT under the Government..as some might think..... ia nya actually sebuah rumah kebajikan yang di usahakan oleh seorang yang baik hati....... (name not mention) ... dulu rumah ini di sponser sket oleh pihak TOSHIBA.... namun sekarang setelah TOSHIBA berpinda.... maka Rumah ini hanya bergantung kepada derma dari orang ramai sahaja....
Rumah ini dalam keadan daif... and in need of major renovation for the children to have a decend shelter...
and more sad to hear that some time the food for the childrens have to be rationed... sbb kekurangan bekalan makanan...
here's some information for anyone who's reading this and would want to give a helping hand for the childrens...

..... Selamat hari raya......
