Woke up surprisingly early today even after a night out and decided to pay my cousin Irina in Puchong a visit. Haven’t been to her place in a while. Quite proud of myself that I found her house all by myself - albeit a few wrong turns along the way :P
Boys called for Sarawak laksa so made the slow crawl back along the LDP to BU. Urgh! Curse the bloody cars on the road on a Saturday morning. Don’t you guys have anything else better to do?!! Took me 45 mins to get to BU.
Deep found this food blog that said this hawker place in Taman Megah called Restoran Megah Good Luck (it’s a corner place filled with individual food stalls opposite the big Ming Tien food Court) served Sarawak Laksa just like the real thing.
Reminiscing on the Telang Usan one, we wanted to see if it’s up to par. It’s not too bad la but they used mee hoon instead of Sarawak mee. Soup was pretty alright, bit herbally & spicy, quite similar to Sarawak’s. Didn’t like the sambal. Too watery. Not like the original one at all. Brought tuak to complete the experience. Khang was whacking it in the car even before we stepped into the restaurant.
Tuak and Sarawak Laksa Lunch
Went back home straight after and kept myself busy with some house work. Managed to collect a bag of clothes for charity. Yea! More closet space now.
My colleague Michael was hosting a birthday party at his place in Pantai Panorama for Elaine, one of his blogger friends. Party was attended by many other famous bloggers as well. Michael’s place is amazing! Let’s talk about the collection of alcho first. There’s an interesting collection of miniatures & collectibles in a cabinet from Polish Vodka to weird beers. We would have been drunk on the miniatures just alone.
The party table had a variety of stuff too - vodkas, whiskey, brandy, tequilas, kahlua, baileys, sake, soju, wine, tuak, beer, even some egg liquor which tasted like shit by the way. Few other stuff too can’t remember. Michael had a crate of coronas, Heineken, a rack of wines and a cupboard of Hennessy. He’s selling the Hennessy by the way - at RM130 or so per bottle (neg - ask him for exact price I can’t remember but it’s def cheaper than retail) coz he realised he's repenting as an alchoholic and can’t drink everything by himself :P
Miniature collection, booze for the guests
Besides alcho, Mike has cabinets and I mean cabinets FILLED with toys and collectibles. He’s a major fan of Transformers and he has some real serious shit lying around. Autographed posters, figurines of LOTR, X-Files, Batman, vintage classics, a full length Eragon’s sword...(hope I got that right). Don you even dare try & nick any coz he knows where every single thing is. He said he had tons more stored in his cupboard. Just one word - WOW.
Toys galore
Party was not too bad. Had good clean fun playing Jenga + drinking shots & watching this hilarious politically incorrect animation called Robot Chicken. Although I just only met 80% of the people there for the first time, it was a good night.
