Edelweiss = noble + white

A few weeks ago, Stan was in Penang and asked for a dinner with the 4 sickawans. It was a weekday but I was more than happy to have a simple reunion with my good friends. After much deliberation, we decided to go to Edelweiss Swiss Restaurant for dinner. Since it was a weeknight, the restaurant was

Traditional toasted bread at Toh Soon Cafe

What comes up to your mind when you think about breakfast? Ham and eggs? Noodles? For me, it's toasted bread! Well, on that particular morning, that is. Saucer came to visit in Penang, and we met up with his ex-colleague Wailian, who's a true blue Penangite. He always has a long list of famous eater

Visiting the roots of Penang’s founder

Last weekend, my friend Wailian brought Saucer and me to a very unsuspecting 'tourist spot' in Penang. He was telling us about how this place was even used as a venue for wedding photography. I'm sure you would be as surprised as I was, when he revealed this place to be...Cemetery!Tadaa! Got you, di

Kek Lok Si Temple, Penang

2 weeks ago, my parents and grandparents came over to Penang to pay me a visit. It was a great idea that they came up because I was almost bored to death! After all, it was more than 1 year since their previous visit, hence I was looking forward to it excitedly. One of the events that we never misse

Jetski for the first time

Everyone, here is Marcin. He's my new colleague who's working in the German office, but he's actually a Polish. He's currently here in Penang for a few weeks, until just before Christmas. Since I was free during a weekend about a couple of weeks ago, I decided to bring him around to tour Penang. Tal

My delicious home-cooked meal

Earlier this month, I went back to my hometown and spent some time with my family shopping. I know what you're thinking now, what is there to shop in the small town? Well, we only went to the brand new Tesco Kampar, which is pretty much the most popular hangout place right now. *LOL* Anyway, my mom

Twisted neck

It was Saturday morning when I woke up, only to realize that I couldn't turn my head around without causing immense pain. I tried to tilt my head up and it was painful. I tried to turn left but I could barely achieve 10 degrees. I could only turn right or tilt my head down. It was really a bad day f

Zhong Hua Dim Sum

Somewhere along Midlands One Stop in Penang, there lies a Chinese restaurant by the name of Zhong Hua. Truth be told, I had never even heard of this restaurant before during the more than 3 years I stay in Penang. My friend highly recommended this place for dim sum, so I decided to go and give it a

Feeling ticklish at Happy Feet

Ever since the advent of fish spa earlier this year, many fish spas have mushroomed even in the small island of Penang. Even as of now, there are two spas in Queensbay Mall, one in Gurney Plaza and one more in New World Park. I suppose the hype was really strong back then, until many people are tryi

Farewell my friend

It was 28th of September, 2008. A group of us gathered to meet at Chili's G Hotel to bid farewell to our dear friend, mentor, coursemate, teacher, Vickna. Personally, I only got to know Vickna better during the last 2 semesters of my masters degree. Previously, we were just coursemates who happened
