Fishes

In my previous post, I told you I had lunch at Telok Gong. Well, before that we went up to Klang - the place is after the the terminal where Star Cruise used to dock.

Look at the fishes. Hubby choose the fishes he wanted to buy including prawns. Then he gave it to the lady to weigh and paid the lady. You can even get them to gut and cut the fishes for you. After that you can get big plastic bags, fill it up with ice and then pack it.

Lunch at Telok Gong

Was at Telok Gong for lunch after buying fresh fish from Klang. Have not been to this place for a long time and the kids have also forgotten that they came before. On the way in to Telok Gong hubby commented that the place have changed a lot - more factories, road also better.

We went to 'Coconut Flower Seafood'. Kids and I love seafood, and you will notice that most of the time we go on roa

Stir fried vege

Salted Egg Crab - looks a bit dry but it was good. Some places fry it with too much grave and tend to make it to 'jelak'. This was just nice. Kids and I finished the whole plate.

Kam Heong Lala - bit spicy, son did not eat much.

Ikan Bulus

Overall, the bill came out to RM83 inclusive of rice and drinks.

Euro Deli

Asked my son what he wanted to eat for his birthday and he said 'Lamb Chop'. So we went to Euro Deli at Damansara Kim. Actually, three of his birthdays were celebrated there. heheh. This place can get pretty crowded especially on weekends, but we went there on a Friday night, so it was still quite OK. The birthday boy initially told me he wanted 'Lamb Chop', but changed his mind after seeing the Menu. This was what he ordered. More like 'breakfast set' right.


'English Plate' - Sausage, bacon, egg and fries.

My girl had Spaghetti Carbonara





Parents took Lamb Chop





Hubby's dish was AglioOlio



Finally, I had Emmenthaler Sausage

and Potato Skin - Cheese and Bacon

Ikan Bakar

A colleague of mine brought us for lunch to this delicious Ikan Bakar yesterday. Actually he brought us here once before, but that time another colleague of mine was on leave. We told her how good it was and she insisted on having it yesterday. So, here we are again. It is just a little shack by the roadside err somewhere near Segambut Dalam or something like that. My colleague and I were planning on remembering the roads and how to get to this place but after I passed the 'Hockey Stadium' then I am lost. It was turn left, straight, right and I forgot. Anyway, we finally reached the place, and we quickly got a place to sit. It can get pretty crowded, so go early. Before we went, one of my colleague already said she wanted to order two fishes.

This is how the place looks like. Anyone been here? The food is on your left and places to sit are on your right.


They have lots of varieties. Beef Rendang, Curry Fish, and lots of green vegetables and also ulams. The last time I came, I took their rendang and 1 ikan pari. Phone camera was out that time so did not manage to take any pics. This time I took rice with a bit of nanka (jackfruit) cooked in curry with santan (masak lemak) - delicious

I took 2 fishes also. A stingray (Pari) and Hardtail Scad Fish (Cencaru)


Half eaten cencary, as I took off the skin before I remember to take a picture. hehehe

The fish cost RM4 per piece for a small fish and the big one is RM5 per fish. My rice is RM0.60. The two fishes cost me RM8.00.

The above is their sauce. Once is black, the other is chilly with onions, lime. Goes so well with the Ikan Bakar.

They even have squids cooked in sambal, which came out later. One of my colleague took it and shared it with us. She took 2 fishes first and when she finished it, she went to take another one, because she says she won't know how to come again, unless, our colleague bring her. So must eat until satisfied.

Bread

Sunday, after fetching the kids from Sunday School, we went to see an 'Old friend'. She is very dear to me and recently her grandaughter told me that she has not been well. So I made it a point to visit her as weekdays was out of the question. Anway, she was chirpy as usual and it was good to see her.

On the way home, asked hubby to drop me at Carrefour as I wanted to pick up some stuffs. Wanted to try baking a BREAD. Got all my stuffs and quickly went home. I have a cake mixer at home. I have used it many times to mix doughs for cakes, biscuits, etc but I have not tried to use it to knead with the 'curly kneader' (don't know what it's called). Mixed all the ingredients in the mixer, and I on the mixer. It was going fine, until I noticed the dough all stuck to the 'curly kneader and going upwards until it was going to spill out from the mixer bowl. I quickly, off the switch, pushed the dough down and started again. Again the same thing happened over and over again. Anyone knows why? Finally, I just removed the mixer and started kneading the dough with my hands. Gosh, its really hard work. My hands really felt like coming out. After kneading, I had to cover the dough and leave it to double in size. This is how it looked like after kneading. Don't look too good as I dint not knead long enough. No energy. heheh


After that I had to knead again. and then leave it for a while and then put it on a tray and leave it again and the finally put it in the oven.

Ohhhh the smell of bread baking in the over was wonderful. The outcome.

Melaleuca

My daughter has very bad eczema on her arms. I have taken her to numerous Skin Specialist, but it still does not heal much. After seeing the Skin Specialist and using their cream, it will heal a bit but after that it comes back. I try not to use too much of their cream because I feel if the skin improves very fast and well, they usually have steriods and I don't want my daughter to use too much of it. Every time we go out, people will always ask 'what happen to her arms'. We happened to be in Petaling Street one day, and one of the vendors also commented on her arm. She even recommended me to buy one cream from one of the Chinese shops around (can't remember what was the name/brand of the cream or which shop) and says that it is very good. Wasn't really paying attention as I know I won't buy stuffs that I'm not sure about.

Anyway, one day at hubby's stall one customer saw my daughter's hand and recommended a cream. He says that he will buy the cream to let her try. The next day he came with the cream and we let her try it. I must say that it helped and she does scratch so much. But of course, its not a miracle cream that will heal you immediately. Anyway, she has been using it and even use their body wash. I have recently joined as a member so that I can buy it whenever I want and not trouble people too much. They have lots of other products too, from vitamins to floor cleaner to skin products and yes its a MLM company. As you can see from my heading, what the company name is. This is from my own experience and I am not doing any promo for the above company.
