PENANG HOKKIEN......

Was going to write this blog quite few weeks ago till now. Guess were being busy during past few weeks, it is nearly chinese new year & so gal like me sure do lots of shopping. It is so happen to get to know this site, it is during the journey to my gal fren's wedding dinner out of town when colid play his mp3 in the car.

"Qiang....tuk tutuk tuk tuk tuk tutuk" the mp3 started with instrument sound and a greeting from a guy in hokkien, a language that we (penangites) all very familiar with.
That how i start to get to know Penang Hokkien website, a site where a lots of podcast is getting on almost once a week and all the podcast will be upload to the site for YOU to listen to.....

What was all about this podcast? Well, the topic is no restriction, they could talk on any topics, even the "yellow" story or curse word and the way they talk, like no other just like how penangites talk lor...hee.....

The main talker/iniatiator have a cute name - Miku xxxx and of course with his guest, whoever that would like to share their experience with one condition, the person must talked & named their name in hokkien. Example of their names: Huat Kueh, Ang Mo Kin Cheow, EeBohLeng, Pong Paa & etc. Among the guest, i like Ah Tox the most... :-) but he is not a good guy, listen to topic - Pator if you wanna know Y...In there, u can just laugh whenever you hear Miku laugh...i can just tell you, get in there whenever u get bored, listen to their conversation, u sure got lots of fun...

Ipoh...Ipoh...

As promise, i am blogging on the Ipoh food hunt with the same gang that attended the CC's wedding. :-) Not pretty much we had ate actually, we went to 富山for dim sum, the "siu mai" and "mo mai kai" was good and the "char shao pao" too.

Due to too full, we went to Jusco to burn our calories...Some of us had a great deal with our purchase items, of course end up as happy customer. After that, we heading to 旧街场 kopitiam, yeah! white coffee, my favourite drink lately...love it very much, taste so good! And we had "koay teow teng" and "ga choi kai" (in kantonis), the "koay teow teng" is similar to the one that we can have in Old Town @ anywhere. The "ga choi kai", mm.....just so so only....

Time to burn our calories again, we went to Perak Cave Temple. It is been a long time i didn't step in here, the temple is still as beautiful as it used to be.

The Outside.....

















Inside......


















With the little walk in Perak Cave Temple, we still felt full and we plan to head home. On the way we stop @ rest place and we are so lucky to meet the TVB celebrity - 食神,Man Tou. What else, we grab him for photo.....

After the photo shooting, Man Tou ask us whether we know his name, of course we do and he smile big as he scared we thought he is 蔡澜。 ;-) Also we found out later on, he is doing program @ Ipoh food hunt together with 官恩娜。 But we don't have chance to see her. :(



Well, it is really time for home, colid brought me home with his special car, a car that you hardly find nowadays. Remember when small and when u first learn to draw a car, ya that kind of car, square square one... Take a look!

Car with no air-con but little tiny fan with noise....stune?!

My Gal Friend Wedding...

It is 3 days holiday on last weekend, it is also one of the big day for my gal fren, colid as well, CC's wedding which held @ Sungai Siput, Perak. Me & another 9 colids went over in 3 cars for her wedding celebration.

Colids was smart, didn't lost when on the journey to Sg. Siput but we U-turn for several times. *_* We start our journey from Juru tol @ 1pm and it took 1 hour to reach Kuala Kangsar and we had met the bride @ our accommodation, a house that not far from her house.

Due to still have plenty of time before the wedding dinner, we had some snack and do some shopping @ the boutique shop that we "found". After that, we take a short rest and started to get ourselves ready for the dinner that start @ 7pm, early ha? Ya, Sg. Siput wedding dinner start @ this early time. :-)

We really have a great dinner that night, do you believe that we had a total of 10 dishes served for the night? Ya, you didn't see wrongly and i didn't write wrongly. The dishes was in big portion except for 1 dish, so you can imagine that the food had filled up our stomach until our throat, hee...


All the way from Penang.....













We sang on stage.....












After the dinner....













The next day, we went to "keh poh" @ bride's house. Seem like we are the first guest, and the bridegroom reached so in time, but unbelievable thing is the PIC for open door task was not around, the bride's youngest brother. Pitty bridegroom, waited in the car, couldn't come out until 10.00am when the PIC is ready. After the bridegroom and his "heng tai" sastified the "ji mui" demandsssss, we were able to see our CC, she is so pretty in her gown, of course with her handsome white horse prince...:-)












Overall, we are glad being there for her big day as we really enjoy in her ceremony. We actually head to Ipoh on her wedding day for food hunting. <-- Wait for next blog for Ipoh food hunting ya!
