Downhill Orbing @MAEPS, Serdang

-
This time I really need to be grateful with Groupon for bringing such a great adventure with minimum price for us. The link for the great deal as below:
Downhill orbing + Water orbing + KMX Bicycle Ride for RM35/pax


Yes, for the 3 great rides, you only need to spend RM35. It is absolutely a deal! For this post, I am going to show you the Downhill orbing only. It took us just 45 minutes to reach Serdang from KL City. The location of these great adventures is located at Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (MAEPS). Very near University Putra Malaysia (UPM). All I can say this place is really HUGE!!!

We are ready for orbing!!! Just throw us down the hill...bring it on!!! Woohoo~~~ Opps...before that, you need to remove all your accessories such as watches, necklace, wallet, handphones, keys, coins, shoes and etc. These items will definitely come out and hurt you!
First you need to jump inside the orb and strap your ankle tight.
Second fasten your seat belt.
Finally, grab the handle as hard as you can.
My girl is ready as well...so what are you waiting for....PUSH US DOWN!!!
It took 3 men strength to push us. It is not because we are heavy but it is just to increase the speed and velocity.
Here we go...roll~ roll~ roll~
We continue rolling but we are inside just hoping it to stop and end it soon.
Arghh...this journey seems like going to be forever...are we there yet??? Ouch...OMG! We are not just rolling but bouncing too!!! OUCH!!!
Phewww~~~ Finally...the whole adventure just lasted for 10 seconds. However, we were inside feel like it was 10 minutes.
This is how the orb holding on each other which allows it to bounce as well.
A nice ride back to the top! Yay!
Sorry, my soul still not back yet. I think they were still rolling and bouncing somewhere else. Let me sit down and wait for them to come back. LOL
The experience was truly awesome! Who created this anyway? Haha...really thanks to Groupon for introducing this. However the deal is only limited on Saturday and Sunday which quite limited days to choose.


Total Damage: RM24 (estimated for 2 pax)
Freakout Level: 3/5
Service: 5/5
Price: 4/5
Will I Revisit?: Yes, with my sister...she needs to expose with things like this.

Merlion Park, Singapore

Driving in Singapore is really a pain especially the traffic congestion, parking hunting and speed cameras alert which is seems like everywhere. As for parking, weekdays parking is like vampire sucking all your money out from your wallet when the clock keeps ticking. Not just parking but their ERP toll is sucking the money out of your Autopass card too. However, I have realized that the best days to travel to Singapore is on weekends and especially on Sunday. ERP toll is free on Sundays. Parking rate are cheaper on Sundays and there are places are free parking too. Not much cars and peoples on the street on Sundays. Sunday is just perfect day at Singapore! Of course, if you plan to eat their buffets, Sunday will be not a suitable day as it will be super expensive. Anyway, today I just want to share one of the tourist attraction in Singapore which is the Merlion Park. I parked at Fullerton Hotel which has ample of parking spaces and it is only S$5.00/entry. The Fullerton Hotel is j...

Coliseum Cafe & Grill Room @The Gardens Mall

It is my day with my little princess, Ying Ying. She is getting cuter every single day. We had our own sweet time at Coliseum Cafe & Grill Room. This restaurant has been operating since 1921 and this is the first time after 92 years, they started to branch out their restaurant to Plaza 33 and Mid Valley. This restaurant has clinched Malaysia Book of Records award for the "Longest Operating Western Colonial - Themed Restaurant. Their first ever restaurant is at Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman.  It is not easy to sustain this long. They surely has their uniqueness in their menu to keep their customers happy. One of the reason is they are pork free restaurant. This easily encourage Malay citizens which stands more than 70% in Malaysia to enjoy western food in this restaurant. Mushroom Soup @RM10.90++ Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 2/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 2/5 - I have made my own mushroom soup before so I understand how it is made. It is made from chicken s...

Restoran Jade Garden Seafood Corner, Sungai Rengit

Seafood is very common food to eat especially we are having a trip to a beach or an island. So I got to know a restaurant which is recognized by Singapore U channel as the No.1 seafood restaurant. The restaurant name is called Restoran Jade Garden Seafood Corner which is located 30 minutes away from the Desaru beach. This is a small village called Kampung Sungai Rengit. You will find a lot of seafood restaurants around here and this restaurant is one of them. This is the display of their signature dish. A lot of their signatures dish is got to do with lobsters. So you will see a large amount of lobsters here but this is not all of it. Here is another HUGE bucket of lobsters. Feel kinda pity with them all of the sudden. But never mind, let me pity them after I have tasted them. Jade Special Lobster with Gravy @RM190.00++ Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 1/5 Overall: 3/5 - It is like in heaven when having this whole lobsters all by yourself. Their me...

Songket Restaurant, Jalan Yap Kwan Seng

Image
This time I am going to take you all to a high class Malay restaurant which is known as Songket. However, it is going to be a disappointing one. First thing when I want to make an order, I saw a rat at a palm size running around at their drink counter. The waiter saw it and smile at me. LOL. His gesture makes me think that it is normal. Second thing, their drink menu is quite boring because of limited choices. Nasi Minyak @RM6.00++ - Very delicious but quite expensive for just a rice. Pandan Nasi Lemak @RM6.00++ - Rich coconut taste but not much of pandan taste. Most likely the green color is made from the coloring. Pucuk Paku Goreng @RM15.00++ Outlook: 2/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 3/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 2/5 - Taste quite delicious at first but the more I eat the more salty it is.  1/2 Ayam Lemak Masak Gelugur @RM14.00++ Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 3/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - Just at the level of spiciness I can accept. Delicious gravy but the...

Thai Thai @Sunway Pyramid

My love with the Thai food never fades even I have left Thailand for 4 months already. I wanted to refresh my memories on the beauty of Thai food so I took the chance at Thai Thai restaurant which is located at Sunway Pyramid. The design not really Thai style but makes me remember about Ben's General Food Store who is using the same sets of chair as well. Spicy Tom Yam Mee Hoon @RM16.90++ Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 2/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 2/5 - The tomyam soup aromatically great when it is in your mouth but once you swallow the burning hot sensation makes you feel very unpleasant feeling. I have drink a great tomyam soup with no such effect but I do not why I experience this here. Pineapple Fried Rice with Prawn @RM17.90++ Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - Fragrance rice and crunchy cashew nuts plus a little sourish kick from the pineapple. This is perfect for me. However, a little dry feeling when towards the fina...

Hawker Center @Jalan MacAlister, Penang

What will people think first when we talk about Penang? Penang Hill? Batu Feringghi? Hard Rock Cafe? I doubt any of them come first but their local food! Penang famous with their local foods and that is the reason there are a lot of hawker center at Penang. One of them is at Jalan MacAlister. No name for this hawker center but the local good foods are concentrated here. A lot of hawker stall like this here. There are just too many to choose from. Prawn Mee @RM5.00 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 3/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 2/5 - As I mentioned in my previous post at Raodifang, I just hate to eat a prawn mee with small prawns in it. Loh Mee @RM5.00 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 2/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 2/5 - Nothing special for an expensive small portion. Carrot Cake in chinese style @RM6.00 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - We ordered two plates and one plate is very delicious and fragrant but another one is too s...

Stone Forest, Shilin, Kunming.

-
Image
Many people asked me what is there in Kunming, honestly, I will say nothing. It is just a city with a dirty lake called Dianchi Lake. The locals love there though but you really do not wish to waste your flight ticket, accommodation and time for that. Trust me. The best part of Kunming is located 82km away which is a town named Shilin.  Kunming Stone Forest, Shilin in Chinese, is a spectacular set of limestone groups and the representative of south China’s karst landscape. Known since the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) as the 'First Wonder of the World', it is one of the most important attractions of Yunnan. An old local goes that if you have visited Kunming without seeing the Stone Forest, you have wasted your time. To get to here from Kunming has several ways: From the airport: There is a special bus line straight to this location from 9.30am - 6.00pm with 8 trips per day. The return bus is from 8.20am - 5.50pm with 8 trips per day as well. The cost is CNY45/trip. T...

Sports Shooting Club Hatyai (SSC)

-
Image
Most of people think if you travel to Hatyai and not visiting their temples, you are just wasting your time at Hatyai. As for my personal opinion, if you come to Hatyai and did not go to Sports Shooting Club (SSC) Hatyai to experience the shooting experience with a real gun, I think you are not just wasting your time at Hatyai but you are wasting your time being a human. You only live once and there is no better way to understand these guns than coming over to SSC.   Their gun selections are enough to satisfy your urge. From rifle, pistols, revolvers to shotguns. You would be surprised that their rifle is the cheapest. The price is stated from 890 baht nett for a 15 rounds.  I have tried the rifle, beretta and this Smith and Wesson 4506 .45 ACP. This 45 is my favorite among all with 50m shooting range and 8+1 capacity. One of the most expensive gun to rent here. Basically you are shooting at the target paper like this. You can adjust the range of the target ...

Warakuya Japanese Garden, Mount Austin

-
Image
I used to whine that Japanese cuisine in Johor Bahru is horrifying and disappointing until I meet Warakuya Japanese Garden at Mount Austin. From the exterior itself, this restaurant looks so grand and luxury. The first thing comes to my mind is the price will be hefty. However, when I saw the queue in front of the restaurant, I already doubt their price is going to be really expensive. I know people just loves good food but at the minimum price. Who doesn't anyway? One of the best part of the restaurant is they are providing 42" LCD TV, free flow of drinks and seating area for the queue. You will never know time flies when you are having those things at the waiting area. Something that Sushi Zanmai needs to consider. Mango Sushi @RM11.90++ Outlook: 5/5 Creativity: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 4/5 Overall: 4/5 - The moment I put the whole piece into my mouth, the sweetness of the mango already started to pamper my tongue. Once the biting started, the sweet taste is ge...

Chong Siew Lam Restaurant, Serdang

Never know about this place until I watched Ah Xian from the TV Programme which is known as "Taste with Jason". This restaurant is known as Chong Siew Lam Restaurant. No signboard to show this place but this is the only the crowded place in the whole street. They only serve for lunch so do expect great crowd roaming to this place between 12.00pm to 2.00pm.  Steamed Tilapia Fish Head @RM20.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 4/5 Overall: 4/5 - Tilapia is a freshwater fish and the best is to steam it. Without a doubt, they did it very well. The meat is so fresh but what is the best part is the gravy. Not sure how they made it but it brings a little wine taste in it with spicy kick. Absolutely uniquely delicious! Steam Salted Chicken @RM22.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - By steaming the chicken like that, the gravy has already penetrated the entire chicken meat. If you just eat the chicken itself, it i...
