生命是一种遇见

生命是一种遇见
美丽的生命里,你遇见了谁?

生命的开始,我们遇到了最珍贵的亲情。亲情像阳光和空气般, 让我们慢慢的茁壮成长。父母亲温暖的大手握着我们的小手踏出了生命的第一步,开始写下我们美丽童年回忆。

当我们不再哭闹要奶瓶后,我们遇见了真挚友情。朋友陪我们共欢笑和患难;笑也好,哭也好,就是要抱在一起,大步大步的往前走。没有了友情,就像蜡烛没有氧气,燃不起来,生命没有了色彩。

在众多的友情里,我们遇见可以投缘的对象。爱情开始时的甜蜜为生命写下一页又一页的精彩故事。当爱情走时,心碎了。 从遇见到失去,也是一种成长。直到有一天,我们遇见了新的恋情,生命才重新有了目标。

美丽的生命里,我遇见了美丽人生。在茫茫人海中,有些人只能与我擦身而过;而有些人却在我生命里写下许许多多的故事. 这个部落格要写给我生命所遇见的人和事,因为一次又一次的遇见,让我的生命更有意义。

一切从遇见开始。。。

Food Gossip 2- Fishing Wharf, Look-Out Point, Atrium Cafe

Fishing Wharf:

After work, we wanted to find a place to dine in KL, but unfortunately there are massive traffic jam everywhere due to the heavy downpour. So we turned into Taman Desa, and we saw this place called Fishing Wharf. Base on the name, we assumed that they are selling all kind of seafood. Actually, they are not. This place is more likely a beer garden.

Look-Out Point, Ulu Langat:
Selangor's only forest reserve look out vantage point is 263m above sea level and is known simply as the purpose it is there for - Look Out Point, where the government spent about RM20mil for this project.

There are three restaurants that sport the unmistakable Minangkabau roofing incorporated into their overall architecture. However, Tourism Selangor plans to only open one serving local cuisine for the time being.
From the tower or the restaurant's terrace, a breathtaking view of the Ampang Jaya skyline stretching into Kuala Lumpur meets the eye with a multitude of buildings, houses and skyscrapers dotting the landscape.
Unfortunately, the weather is bad the night we went due to the heavy downpour in the afternoon. So i can't get a better snapshot.
Look Out Point's attraction lies not only in the grand view it offers, but also in the century-old trees, cool environment and jungle flora and fauna there are in the vicinity. As one walks beneath the towering trees, the musical sounds of insects, birds and monkeys are distinct and inviting.
But, what i scare of is the mosquitoes love bite!!

Disadvantage for this place is the lack of parking space.

Atrium Cafe, Sunway Pyramid Hotel:

This is not the first time i patroned Atrium Cafe. Yet, i like the buffet served in the restaurant with many varieties of choices. Why? I will just let the following photos to do the talking.

Normally, when talk about buffet, my friends will tease me coz i can't each much. So it's not a good idea to invite me for buffet. Well, eventhough i can't eat much, but i will set priority to Salmon, prawn and oyster. The most important is the quality of food, not the quantity!!


Yeah! i like dessert.


Wao..so excited to see salmon here. I can have a lot of salmons on my plate. But i have to make sure the salmon is fresh enough to put into the mouth, otherwise...there is another place to visit after that!!





Sunway has a very good chef to make Tiramisu. But i heard from the Sales manager that he has left the group. That's why, i didn't see any Tiramisu here. What a waste :-(



i like pumpkin soup. Who can share the recipe of making nice pumpkin soup??



Sri Ayutthaya, Medan Damansara:

If you like Thai food, you must try it at this restaurant. This place offers a beautiful ambience and environment for dining. On top of that, the food served is simply tasty and delicious, as well as their service is good.

Once we arrived, there are a few beautiful girls in Thai costume welcoming guests with a big smile. I like the restaurant setting, so clean and romantic.

Pic : Tomyam Kung (RM9.90) ! too hot for me..
Pic: soft shell crabs with spicy sauce at RM16.00. Pic : water chestnut dessert at RM7.90.

Is a good dining experience! Total bill is about RM162.25 for 5 dishes, 1 soup, 1 dessert and including steamed white rice and drinks.

Sitiawan, Perak

Sitiawan is primarily known for rubber, palm oil, fishing and ship building. Not much in the way of tourist attractions, but it is near the port of Lumut where traveller can board a ferry to the resort island of Pangkor.
There is a famous old shop which selling Gong Pian. The shop is swamped with the locals to buy the biscuits. Every customers will buy at least min 10 pc. If you're late, and you insist to try it, then you have to be patient to wait for it. Good thing doesn't come easy huh!

We arrived at about 10.30am. The biscuit is almost sold out. So we waited another 15min, in order to get some fresh and hot biscuit fron the oven. In the mean time, i just walk around to snap some shots of the making of Gong pian.
All about hand make, instead of using modern technology. The crispy biscuit filled with chopped unions sell at 60cents/pc.

One month ago, my two bosses suggested to have a party for the staffs in conjuction with Mooncake Festival in September. Therefore, i prepared the necessary things to get his approval. Of course the most exciting news for the staffs is, the boss agreed to give lucky draw in cash. Wow..that's really exciting where everyone aiming for the highest amount of the night.

I reminded all to bring their own lanterns. Hah! guess which one is mine?...hehe...CJ7! too bad, i have no chance to carry it ..too busy!

After the sumptuos dinner, is time for fun. As usual, the staffs are shy to participate the fun games. Due to the attractive prizes give away, they go for it. We laughed all the way to see the participants busy with the strings inside their shirts.Is time to show your lantern. There are 75 of them, carrying lantern to go round.


The most excited moment where Lucky draw of cash prizes give away.
Every staffs are entitled to a cash prize, but it depends on how much they can get. Of coz the last name to be called will be the grand prize winner. So that, we hope that our names will not be called so soon. Same as me! But .....sad thing is my "buddy" Michael drawed my name from the bowl.
From there, Michael's nightmare starts after i kicked him hardly with my high heel. I swear, i don't want befriend with him anymore! coz i lost the chance to get the grand prize. There it is the grand prize winner of RM500 cash. A Malay collegues from Warehouse department. My boss proudly presented the prize to him. Congratulations!
My boss promised to give all staffs a get together trip this year end. So now, we are planning for that. Seeing all staffs enjoy the event, i feel satisfied.
