The Shang Palace @ Hotel Shang-Ri La

Had lunch with the Phang's :D

We were at the Shang Palace at Shang-Ri La Hotel

and I've actually been there a few times cause somehow my family loves the food there xD

This was what was on the table xD

Since it's Chinese New Year,

you gotta start with the Yee Sang ;)

The purpose of this is to have happiness among all your family members,

and usually you would wish for the best to all your family members while mixing this :D

We had prawns, 

with they're own mayonnaise.

It was HEAVENLY x3

For my readers,

in case you don't know, I am a HUGE fan of prawns

and this dish was amazing xD

To maintain a healthy meal,

we ordered vegetables,

mainly beans with lotus roots and nuts(forgot what nuts they were) and also asparagus

This was actually called four something something (I'm not too good with cantonese names)

and it consists of:

Siew Mai with Abalone,

Yam ball with pork fillings,

Scallop,

and fried mushrooms :D

Yong Chow fried rice,

a normal favourite of many :3

SIEW LONG BAO!!!! :D

Although these were a little on the dry side,

and the skin was a bit too thick for my taste :/

This dish goes with the "Lam Mei Fan" 

because in my opinion, 

it didn't have much flavour in it.

These are chinese sausages by the way,

and they are pretty salty.

But the family loves it xD

Have a Good Chinese New Year Everyone! :D

Jessica.

Being hardworking

Today is technically a good day for me :)

Had a day off college,

but went to college to meet up with my partner to do our assignment anyway 

HAHA so rajin right?

So after a while,

of course I'll take some pictures because I get distracted xD

So here's me and my partner's laptop xD

The empty hangout lounge :O

Well, one part of it xD

Camwhored with Sum Yee aka my partner xD

The other part of the lounge... xD

It's really empty cause there are no classes today xD

The people who come are just here to study in a quiet environment 

It's really nice LOL

I then had lunch with ze bf :3

Because it was our 2 year anniversary today :D

It feels nice xD

And he gave me a pretty scarf too :3

Cause it's pink bahaha ;)

I love you dear xD

Happy 2 Year Anniversary :)

I can't make heart shapes cause blogger just turns it into some weird code thing :/

That's all today I guess

Sleepy, gonna finish off my powerpoint tomorrow hopefully :/

But I AM LOVIN LIFE SO FAR XD

Cause I get to learn what I want :D

Therefore, I will put 150% effort in :D

Jessica.

Short update, Resolutions :D

Taken from Google.

Right, 

I know it's not the first day of January,

but the second day is still the beginning!

So, it's still not too late to create a resolution! I think ._.

Actually, nothing excited happened recently so I sorta ran out of ideas ><

Well, for starters,

IT'S THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL TODAY!!! 

In Malaysia anyway :3

How was it students of MALAYSIA? :D

Those not yet starting college/university yet,

just you wait :)

So those who are starting new pages in their lives,

what resolutions have you got? :D

I have a feeling that this year is going to be a good year so I will try to make the best of it!

I also want to blog better, make it less boring and of course, 

make new friends! :D

This is technically just a short update :)

I'm starting college soon too and hopefully I will be blogging as often as I am now

Also, hopefully I will be attending more events too :D

I'll blog about something interesting next time! I hope :x

Jessica.

End of 2012, Shopping, Fashion :D

It's the last day of 2012 people!!!

What did you do today?

I bet most of you are spending time with your families today,

having dinner,

playing with fireworks :3

I, went shopping with ze mum :D

Was in Uniqlo most of the time.. so yea la xD

Here's a knitted top,

but I didn't buy it cause I couldn't afford it :(

Bought this coordinate.

Ultra stretch Skinny Jeans and a knit top

I don't have to wear it like this only,

Jeans are OBVIOUSLY versatile

So is the top :P

Wore it with my flare skirt pants that I got from Kenanga Mall :)

Hairband is from Bonita 

So how did you spend the last day of 2012?

:D

HAPPY NEW YEAR! :D

Jessica.

Restoran Tak Fok @ Taman Desa

Right,

so guess where we're eating?

:D

Tak Fok at Taman Desa!

Their menu didn't have their restaurant name on it so I just took a picture of the crab dishes

cause their specialty is CRAB.

I know, it's a dream come true~

But somehow, 

everytime we go and eat at Tak Fok, it rains. REAL HEAVY Dx

God, you just want to ruin it is it?? 

So anyway, 

we had to sit outside since all the tables indoors were reserved

plus it's more cooling outside.

Had lots of seafood (love)

and probably also grew fatter T.T

That is fried squid :D

Then we had CRAB!!

Yum yum yum!

I think this was supposed to be butter crab or something,

but the sauce tasted like pasta sauce ._.

But it's still edible with man tao :D

Had lala soup.

This was my first time trying, 

cause I have this skin condition that doesn't allow me to have seafood T.T

but I just paid a visit to a skin specialist, 

it's healing so I can finally eat! :D

I can't really make a remark on it cause it was my first time ><

And also since we were "celebrating" uncle Princeton's birthday,

it's a family tradition that we have noodles :D

I think it's a Chinese culture but it sure is my family's.

This is Curry Prawn :D

DELICIOUS but then I say all prawns are delicious :P

and the last dish,

SOFT SHELL CRAB.

This I really recommend to have as a snack or something, 

cause it's a good snack :P

The service, 

I would say it's not TOO bad, 

but it isn't very very great either because they are usually very busy as the restaurant is usually filled :/

If you really want to secure yourself a table, 

I'd suggest you make a reservation :D

Otherwise, just show up REAL early :)

and the pricing is also quite reasonable :D

btw, THEY SERVE LOBSTER TOO! :D

Here's where they're located:

Restoran Tak Fok

No.26a, 

Jalan Desa Jaya, 

Taman Desa (Faber Plaza), 

WP Kuala Lumpur,

58100,

 Malaysia

The Han Room @ The Gardens Mall

Sorry for the late post!

Was busy so I couldn't,

until now :D

So yeah,

with dad and lil' sis,

we decided to have brunch at the Han's Room at The Gardens Mall

I know it seems as if I keep going to Mid Valley/The Gardens,

it's true hahah

It's like my second home! :D

So before our orders came,

we were served this as.. I don't know.. appetizers?

We were hoping to get the boiled/steamed groundnuts/peanuts

but sadly no :(

This was still delicious and addictive though! 

We ordered roast pork aka siew yok

because it's actually a family favourite, 

and this one specially melts in your mouth!

Also some egg tarts :D

Cute things, and also good to it!

Though it requires gentleness when handling the tart as it is quite delicate 

My favourite seafood,

PRAWN

Had a salad prawn or deep fried prawn :D

Dim sum is usually never perfect without char siew bao aka BBQ pork steamed bun!

This was a little too sweet for me as I usually prefer the traditionally made ones

p/s: The taste and texture of this bao is very different from the ones you find at normal coffee shops

This is fried radish cake or zha lo bak you

Its a little spicy so beware ;)

It's still nice though for people who can't handle spicy,

be a little careful :)

Ahhh, siew mai,

one of the most common dim sum dishes,

to my family anyway ><

but I observed that a lot of people usually order this as well :P

and finally, 

chee cheong fun!

Hong Kong style as dim sum is usually eaten in Hong Kong!

(correct me if I'm wrong)

This was the dish that managed to fill our tummy's enough to last the day :D

Until dinner that is B)

Service was good,

Food was good,

Tea was good,

Price was "pretty",

but once in a while,

it's recommended to visit! 

:D

Here's where they're at!

The Han Room

Lot G243,G246 &G247,
Ground Floor,
The Gardens Mall,
Mid Valley City, Lingkaran Syed Putra, 59200 KL. 

That is all for today!

Till next time! :D

New hair at number 76style :D

After reading Cheesie's, Audrey's, and Chuckei's blog,

And 

SO MANY OTHERS~ 

I decided to actually go to number 76 style

For my hair :3

As you all may/may not know, 

I have really... 

Frizzy,

Dry,

Curly 

hair

:(

And so far, no treatment has ever come close to making it softer and.. smoother? o.0

Anyway, 

I decided to do rebonding

After SO long...

Cuz hairdressers keep recommending me to do rebonding

As my hair... is really bad :(

See? :((

Why la I was born with such messy hair :(

So anyway, 

I made an appointment

and I went there today :D

Yoshi-san was my hairstylist

I actually have this HUGE obsession for Japan and.. Japanese ><

But hopefully I didn't freak anyone out there :3

The service there was. unlike any service I've ever experience..

EVERYONE IS JUST SO DAMN POLITE. 

OMGSJKJSHDFKJS

Anyway, 

Yoshi-san took a look at my hair..

And I was laughing to myself cause I know how bad my hair is ><

It was my FIRST time doing rebonding

and, 

I didn't know what to expect really

I actually thought it was gonna hurt LOL

Anyway, here's a picture of my hair after putting all the chemicals..

Still like a lion mane.. 

Then they straightened it, 

add more chemicals,

wait some more,

and rinsed it off. 

They I had Yoshi-san cut my hair..

and omgosh, 

It was really fast okay. 

He looked so pro and cool and everything

LOL 

Then, 

My hair became this

AWESOME RIGHT?? 

Super loving it now :D

Seriously, 

thought it cost me... 

a lot..

But it was worth it :3 

Plus, 

I got Yoshi-san's name card

and became a member of number 76style :D

I will TOTALLY go back there for a haircut :3 

and

I will remember to take a picture with Yoshi-san the next time 

:D

To Yoshi-san and that assistant, 

本当に、どうもありがとうございます!

:D

Jessica.
