Home Cooked Food

I wasn't back at home for long during the past Chinese New Year due to sudden assignment from the company.

But I was and am very thankful for my mother for willing to prepare great food for me while I was back. Still, home-cooked food is the best! :)

red fish? steamed, my favorite way of cooking a fish. I like steamed fish though, regardless the type. :) hehe...

sweet and sour pork. nice!i was stealing to eat some while my mom was cooking them. hehe...

dim sum!

one of my favorite dishes, mixed vege. I don't know why my mom can always make it taste so nice. hahaa..

fried eggs soup with mushroom and minced meat. :)

this is the lunch I took before I left. Mixed vegetables with prawn, again, it tasted fabulous. haha..

and yea, chicken steamed in white gourd. the soup is fantastic. :)

steamed fish! too luxurious huh? hehee...

so you have known my favourite dishes? :) anyone needs some recipe? haha...

Happy Chinese New Year 2011!

Happy Chinese New Year everyone! Finally after one year I am back in Miri again. It has been a while since I last saw this town/city! hehe...

Met up with some secondary school friends just now, can't believe the last time I saw them was one year ago. Time flies indeed! and everyone has changed, some little changes, but some changed quite a lot. Hmm... :)

Quite a relaxing season, how I wish I can stay here longer and enjoy the atmosphere more. :)

Pizza for Chap Goh Meh

It was the last day of Chinese New Year, or some of us we called it "Chap Goh Meh", and some of my friends invited me to join them for dinner to spend the night together. We decided to have Pizzas for the night. hehe...so, we went to Pizza Hut. :)

We ordered Chicken Supreme and Island Supreme for 3 of us. :)

Chicken Supreme pizza

Island Supreme pizza

The meal costed us around RM47 as we ordered combo meal for 4. hehe...it was very filling as there were only 3 of us that night. Personally, i would prefer the Island Supreme over the chicken supreme as the taste is nicer and it has a lot of ingredients in it, especially with pineapple in it. hehehe...

An old house

Hi there, sorry people, it has been a while since I last updated, was really busy and tied up with my Final Year Project and also upcoming test. But still, i find time to update! hehe...

It is still Chinese New Year, and yea, just wish to share some experience when I went back home for the celebration.

This year, i went back to visit my mother's old house. Yea, in case you din know, i grew up by the river last time when i was very very young ( less than 5 years old that time).

Took some pictures, just to share with you all. :) hehe...

the wooden old house, the place i grew up as a Kampung boy, or river boy...hehe....

this is the long infamous wooden bridge that connects the river deep into the jungle. :D

the river view...see the colour of the river? :) It's the Baram River.

another view of the river, note the colour of the river, hehe...it's getting darker due to the landslide of the riverbanks.

anyone has any idea what is this? hehe... it's the floating toilet. :) interesting? hehe...

haha....glad the house is still there. but dunno when will be the next time i ever see it again. :) hope it is still there the next time i go back . hehe...

First day of Chinese New Year-Foo chow style

During the first day of Chinese New Year, according to the foo chow's tradition (according to my grandfather perhaps), we need to take "mee sua"(longevity noodles) with chicken soup. :) super yummy...hehe...

first, the noodles are put into the boiling water to cook it.

then, the noodles are taken up from the boiling water...lol

then the noodles are mixed with the well cooked chicken soup...

everyone will get one bowl! hehe...here's the trick, if u want to eat less noodles, finish the noodles fast, if you finish the noodles slowly, the noodles will keep on increasing as the time goes. why? cause the water will soak the noodles and expand the noodles thus making the noodles seem longer! hehee...

and of course, we eat with the chicken as well....very tasty! super like it. you all should try! heheh...

Happy Chinese New Year once again! Gong Xi Gong Xi. :D

Happy Chinese New Year 2010!

Happy Chinese New Year everyone! Wish you and your family a blessed and prosperous year ahead! Hope that everyone will enjoy and strive for the year of tiger! :D

This year's celebration was a bit special for me as I went back to Marudi then Lubok Nibong to celebrate the New Year with my grandfather and some relatives. Just in case if you all don't know, Lubok Nibong is a suburban area of the Baram district, the place by the Baram river, the place where I grew up. hehe...

My grandfather cooked well, and he prepared mostly all the dishes for the reunion dinner. :)

steamed fish. :) (anyone knows the name of the fish in English? I only know is Bai Mu in mandarin...LOL)

chicken with corns and mushrooms.

fried boiled egg with minced meat.

this is my favourite, fried pork cooked with pineapples. sweet and sour...yummy....

all the dishes for the night...super a lot right? just for 7 of us. huhu....we are all big eaters. >.<

hehe...Happy New Year 2010! I am sure you all had a great reunion dinner too right? :D

Gong Xi Gong Xi!
