Thanks Guys!!!

I'm so old now..

*Sniff* *Sniff*

I can't believe how time flies..

I just want to thank everybody who've wished me "Happy Birthday" and for those who forgot or who didn't, its ok. I won't bear any grudge against you. (Very Grammy speech....Arrrggh!!)

So right after our BMedSc exams today, which was kind of bewildering for most of us. We head straight off to Ampang to have some great Korean Food. Thx HL, I know its your hood man... And getting a glimpse of the mini Korea town in Ampang does bring back memories when I was still in Korea a long time ago for a holiday. All the Hangul writing, Korean grocery store, Korean Restaurant and a weird bungalow call Korean Hairdressing???

Ok, not that I haven't been to this place before. But I can tell you for certain that a large population of the people living there are Koreans and so I finally got a glimpse of some Korean chicks after a darn long time, ok not really the recent one was during the AFC semifinals...

OK Korean Food.....

Not this one Doink!!!!!
This is actually an aquarium by the side of our table

Hmmmm....yummmy

Yeah. We ordered so much. Nearly 4 rounds of the kimchi. It was good but somehow we weren't feeling satiated. So we head over to some grocery store and bought some Korean snacks to munch after dinner. Hehe :)

Ok I don't know what this call.I kind of doubt this is genuine Korean or Malaysianised. But it's still good!

BMedSc gang

Debbie and Hong Lim

Ok obvious enuf, HL and me

After dat, we went to watch Ratatouille. Seriously this show is a must watch animation of the year. Forget the graphics and animation. The storyline's quite easy to follow but interesting. Ok not going to spoil it for anyone. Very original and hillarious.

Hmmm, is this a good impersonation or wat??

Definitely an A from me. Hahaha, I guess animations are my kind of shows.

Tis, The Dumpling Season is Nigh..

Deck the halls with strings of dumplings,
Fa la la la la, la la la la!
Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la!
We shall all begin our feast now,
Fa la la la la, la la la la!
Sing we joyous all together,
Fa la la la la, la la la la!

Every year, just before the 5th day of the 5th month of the lunar year, my mum would be making dumplings for all of us. Before this scrumptious dumplings can make it out of the wok, she will spent long hours meticulously preparing the ingredients, so that she will not waste them, cos there are getting more and more expensive every year. Believe me, the initial process is painstaking and very tiring. So she's really worried how it will taste like.

Dumplings: Glutinous rice the major ingredient, plus "mei tau", fung lut (chestnut), "ha mai"(shrimps), egg yolk, oyster, pork, mushrooms all make wat I call da "Home Made Dumpling".

The Final Verdict: Is almost always certainly so good, that I have to always remind her that she should open some makan shop. Dun care whether it is dumplings.... Bcoz she's really a great cook

Lunch at Annalakshmi

Since research life have been treating us so well, we decided that we should go somewhere for a good makan. Mei Shiang has been telling us about Annalakshmi for a long time, that it serves great Indian food and you pay as you like! So when I heard "pay as you like...", I was like cool so can I pay 1 cent for a buffet meal. Naaa..... I'm not dat kiam siap and you pay at least RM1 for any meal regardless of how much you take.

Annalakshmi actually means "The Goddess of Meals", and there really is a magnificent statue of the goddess inside. Surrounding the interior are interesting Indian crafts and paintings which adds even more to the aesthetics. If you were to look at the whole restaurant inside, it does exude a higher class feeling. It operates based on the concept, "Eat as you want, pay as you wish."

Ok, what could be more important than the food right despite the already pleasing interior decorations. The food here is great. I recommend every single person who has come across this post to try the food!! According to one of the volunteers, they serve Southern Indian food, Northern Indian food, blah blah....blah. Believe me, I only came here for the food and I wasn't bothered about their background. But really, after searching on the Internet, there really is a difference. But I won't bore you with a mini lecture on what's the difference between Northern and Southern Indian cuisine.

Annalakshmi offers fine, Indian vegetarian cuisine. They have Chappati, Poori, Tosai, Vada, Sambhar, rice, dahl, curry coconut oil. Oh yaa, the vada should go with some orange powder. I've no idea what izit call and some sauce. The sambhar, which is some donut thingy. Even the rice they have two different variety, The also have a variety of vege, which is kinda obvious. Again, I dunno wat izit called. They also have fried eggplant if I'm not mistaken. They have yogurt which you can take it as it is or add onto another dish. And the yogurt is good. For beverages, there have quite a variety but I only tried the mango lassi. The desert for the day was red bean soup with sago. But they said, they also serve purple rice as desert. I forgot wats the name. The owner also said the buffet sometimes varies from day to day.

At the end of the day, we left with a very filled stomach thanks to all the delectable choices. We payed RM10 each. Most of it goes to charity after paying all the overhead. And all the workers are volunteers. Even some of them are medical students. Ok I din confirm dis but Mei Siang said so. Oh yes...I haven't mentioned where izit yet.. It's in MidValley, very close to Chillis. SO PEOPLE GO THERE!!!

Make sure its between 11.30-3.00 and 6.30-11.00pm
