Blue Mango @Ao Nang, Krabi

-
This is another one of the top recommendation by the bloggers to dine at Ao Nang, Krabi which called Blue Mango Restaurant & Bar. By carrying a mindset thinking that I should not give up the whole forest just because of a tree after a bad experience at Bernie's Place, I stepped into the restaurant...

Here is the restaurant everybody~
Nice table decoration. Different flower for each table but the flower is fake thou.
Their bar which is long but quite bare.
Smoking Area
Non Smoking Area
Kids Mini Playground
Vanilla Milkshake @120฿
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 3/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 3/5 - After drank a worst ever vanilla milkshake @Bernie's Place, I decided to search for a good replacement to rinse off my previous bad experience. Well, the vanilla milkshake here is pretty good but not as good as Star Cafe @Taman Desa, Malaysia.

Watermelon Ice Blended @120฿
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 2/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 3/5 - Lack of watermelon taste and it is too expensive.

Yellow Curry Chicken @175฿
Outlook: 2/5
Creativity: 3/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 2/5 - Such a small plate with this price is being very ridiculous. However, the food taste really really good.

Seafood Pad Thai @280฿
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 3/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 3/5 - When you are at Penang, Asam Laksa is the food you must try. Same here at Thailand, Pad Thai is just the food you have to try as it is made of noodle that you will not find in Malaysia. As for this Pad Thai, it tastes average and the price is way way too expensive. The hawker stall here are selling their Pad Thai @40฿ only. This restaurant is selling 7x more expensive!!! I understand this is a seafood Pad Thai but the seafood is only prawns and squids which are not so fresh.


Overall, this restaurant is another bad recommendation by bloggers which I have decided not to trust bloggers on their food recommendation for overseas food anymore. I am greatly disappointed.


Total Damage: 755฿
Ambiance: 4/5
Service: 4/5
Food Serving Speed: Slow
Recommended?: No
Location: Krabi, Thailand

City Square Shooting Gallery @Menara TKSS, Segambut

-
Image
I have been always wanted to get hold of a real gun and shoot like James Bond, Neo in Matrix and Max Payne. I have invited my buddy, Suyin who is very interested in it as well to accompany me. Thanks to ILoveDiscounts , this dream is no longer a dream and it is made possible and affordable to everyone. The link of the deal as follows: RM105 for a handgun experience + 25 Rounds of Ammo Before we attend, we are required to submit our passport photo, photocopy of our IC and filling up their Vetting form. The documents are required for a background check to eliminate those who has criminal record especially related to gun. 14 working days are required to run the check. After that, it is compulsory to attend their briefing which is lasting at most 2 hours to learn and understand the safety rules. At the same time, to learn the basic techniques in shooting. Since this is a real gun and it is not a gun we are playing in a fun fair, we must adhere to their strict rules not just for prot...

Sitigun Cafe, Georgetown

-
Image
Sitigun Cafe is located at the junction between Jalan Nagor and Jalan Bawasah. Finding a parking here is a pain. Well, they do served great coffee so it is worth it. Croissant with smoked Salmon @RM16.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - Their croissant are really fresh as they baked daily. The soft and fresh croissant mix with smoke salmon is truly great. If the croissant itself has the rich buttery taste, that would be perfect for me. Flourless Chocolate Cake @RM12.00 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 2/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 2/5 - Too plain for me and does not really amazed me. Not photos about their coffee but their signature is still their coffee. Do drop by just for a cup of their coffee because I saw them hand pick the coffee beans and roasted themselves. A very tedious process but brings out the best coffee taste to their customers. I like it! Another thing I like about this cafe is they have a seat facing the road. It ...

Image
Have you ever stay in a Durian Farm before? No? At Bao Sheng Durian Farm, you can do it! This 6.7 acres durian farm has been established in Balik Pulau since 1959. It really took them full 60 years to get the fruit of their hard work. Their villa is well equipped with air-con, hot shower and LCD TV with hundreds of Blu-Ray quality movies in it! They have existing queen size or king size bed and extra bed can be requested. To get close and personal with the King of Fruit...the accommodation charges will be Deluxe Villa is charged at RM280/night and standard villa will cost you RM180/night. They only have 1 Deluxe Villa and 2 Standard Villa only. So it is very easy to be fully booked during the durian season. Advance booking is greatly recommended for at least 3 months ahead so that you will be able to choose the right schedule for the durian you wish to taste. Why stay in a durian farm? This is what you see when you open the window with all the durian trees around you. The fre...

Cia Xiang Seafood Restaurant, Bukit Tambun

-
Image
In my experience so far, the best seafood restaurant at Bukit Tambun is Restoran How Kee Seafood Village . Surprisingly, it is not listed in "Taste with Jason" tv programme. He preferred Cia Xiang Seafood Restaurant somehow. So here I am to find out! Unlike  Restoran How Kee Seafood Village , Cia Xiang Seafood Restaurant is very close to Bukit Tambun Tol Exit. While waiting for the first traffic light to turn green, you will immediately see their restaurant signboard on your north east direction. Crab Claypot Rice @RM54.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 3/5 Price: 1/5 Overall: 3/5 - The rice in the claypot is extremely delicious with thick crab fragrance in it. However, this has caused the crab meat itself has little left taste in it because being absorbed most of it in the rice. The crab meat is fresh but very near tasteless. It is a waste. In addition, the price is just too expensive for just one crab in the pot. Fried Prawns in Coconut Gravy @RM20.00 ...

Restoran Yu Hing, Kota Kinabalu

-
Image
By the appearance of it, Restoran Yu Hing definitely doesn't look appealing enough to become a tourist spot for you as your dining choice. However, I am still going to introduce to you their noodle. They do serve other variety of food but something worth to be here is only their noodle which is known as Beaufort Fried Noodle. Beaufort is a name of a town in Sabah. This is their very own local delicacies which you won't find it easily at any part of Malaysia or even Sabah. You have to be either in Kota Kinabalu or Beaufort to experience it. We can even hardly able to find a table in this run-down looking restaurant which already suggest that how good they are. Beaufort Fried Noodle @RM9.70 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 3/5 - Still a common looking noodle to you which does not convince you why I am purposely creating a post just to introduce it? You have to come visit for yourself then. I think the same too when it is displayed right in f...

Muzium Diraja (Istana Negara Lama) & Istana Negara

-
Image
In 1957 which is the independence year of Malaysia, this was the palace for our Yang di-Pertuan Agong (Monarch) and Permaisuri Agong (Queen) until 2011 where they have moved to a new palace which is located in Jalan Duta. With 54 years of history and it has becomes a Muzium Diraja in 2013. Muzium Diraja is a museum where you will see how the castle exactly looks like in Malaysia.  The parking in front of the castle is free but not ample. However, it is enough to accommodate the visitors as the maximum time you will be spending here is just 30 minutes top. That's the admission fee. If you are Malaysian, you are required to show your MyKad to proof. They do have caddie ride to take you from the entrance to the castle and return for just RM2.00/pax.   How I wish this is the view when I am looking out through my house's window.  So the caddie ride will stop you here and you will get to visit the first site of the museum. This site is strictly prohibit you fr...

Champ's Bowling Centre, Sandakan

-
Image
Not really much entertainment in Sandakan even though they are just beside the sea. No nice beach for water activities and the nearest island like Pulau Selingan and Turtle Island are about 90 minutes away. As for the town itself, basically is this bowling centre called Champ's which has a very nice and good condition bowling alley, bowling shoes and bowling bowls if to compare with bowling centres like in KL.  Not very big at all for their bowling centre which only has 12 lanes. Their shoes look so new! Here is a demonstration on how to bowl. Looks pro...I wonder how is the end result. So what do guys think? Is it a strike? They have a lounge here as well. And a cafe too! The price of the bowling is cost at RM4.80 per game per pax. We went at their most peak hours so their price basically has not much different than our KL City price. As for the bowling shoes is chargeable at RM2.00 per pax. FYI, the prices not inclusive government ta...

Tamarind Springs @ Jalan TAR, Ampang

-
Image
Tamarind Springs is a sister company with Tamarind Hills but at different location and different concept. Tamarind Springs is located inside a jungle like area. So there are no air-conditioner provided and you are surrounded by greens. Very nice atmosphere to have your meals. An exotic dining experience! Tamarind Springs serves Indochinese Cuisine so you will be expecting Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand cuisine in their menu. To get to here is a little bit tricky. Even Google Maps and Waze failed to guide you to the right place. Basically you will only see this restaurant after you passed by the Royal Club Selangor Golf Course. For exact location, please click on the link on the word "Location" at the end of this post. There is a guarded parking lot provided which is free of charge. So do not worry about your expensive vehicle leaving in the wild and dark in the middle of the night. You have to be amazed with the landscape and design of this restaurant. Pretty...

Keropok Lekor B.T.B 2209, Kuala Terengganu

-
Image
Kuala Terengganu only famous for two things, first is their wonderful piece of landmark which is called Masjid Kristal and the other one is the keropok lekor . There are a lot of keropok lekor stalls around in Kuala Terengganu but nothing as exaggerate as this one. This stall is called Keropok Lekor B.T.B 2209 and i am not sure why they named their stall this way. I have to thank my client that for bringing us to the most popular keropok lekor in town. No specific address or coordinate for this but you can always click on my "location map" at the end of this post. Yes, you have to obtain your number here. Each purchase must not more than RM100. This is because they do not want you to ask another person who has the earliest number to purchase for them. If this happens, it will be the numbering purpose. Brilliant move but I hardly follow. LOL This is their "oven" using dry woods to boil them. I can tell you this area is super hot! So many pots and so m...

Mulu Pinnacles Climb

Image
After a night at Camp 5 , finally I am here to make my finale of my Mulu trip which is to climb the Mulu Pinnacle! The above picture already telling you all the warnings and time that you will take. As early as 8.00am in the morning, we started this adventure. I have brought myself 3 liters of water, 4 chocolate bars, dozens of biscuit packs and a lunch box which is included in this tour package. If you are not signed up with any tour agency, you need to pack your own lunch box. Total distance is 2.4km, it may sound easier than 9km jungle trekking walk but you are wrong if you do think like that.  Not a well made road like you can see in Mount Kinabalu (for those been there). All are rocks and roots. Actually I prefer this trail more than the ladder type of trail in Mount Kinabalu. The reason is I can adjust the height that I would like to put my step onto. For Mount Kinabalu, it is a fixed height. The terrain on this mountain is very spiky. It has a lot of spiky rocks ev...
