  • Hot & Spicy Chiang Mai /Chiang Rai

    Haizzz....2 days before the flight, received an sms that AA flt to Chiang Mai will be earlier from 10.30am to 7.30am...Can u imagine, I have to leave d house by 5pm d latest. Wake up by 4am

    Goshhh.. always pack my back last minute.So I packed till 2am...i have got only 2 hrs to sleep comfortably before boarding AA flt.

    Well, this is my second trip to Chiang Mai.Been to most places by motorbike (within Chiang Mai)and infact I have travelled to outskirt like Mae Sa,Mae Hong Song & Pai district by 4 WD.It was indeed interesting and adventurous. One should try this. It's very beautiful & worth the money .Paid around 4500THB 2 years ago for this trip.Inclusive of 3 nites accomodation,2 meals, 4WD with driver (you can drive yourself too) plus all the entrance fees to where ever we go.

    The main reason, I was in Chiang Mai was to travel to Chiang Rai to attend a wedding. I always love to see the local culture. and ...yeah dreams come true.

    I reached Chiang Mai around 9.30an (local time). There was a delay of 20 min as announced by the captain.And he also informed us that there was a military exercise and the plane has to stay out from the Chiang Mai Air space.My heart was pumping when I heard this cos I thought there was a riot going on in Chiang Mai and the plane has to stay out

    Finally when the captian announced "Cabin Crew, please be seated for landing"...it was such a relieved. We took a taxi (approx 2300 THB).We sat comfortably in something like Toyota Innova.Made a stop in Chiang Mai City to grab some food.Driver took us to eat thier famous congee...real yummy indeed. We had some Thai version Dim Sum...no chili or sweet sauce but gave us black vinegar...taste funny but OK.

    Chicken Congee ala Thai (very smooth like cantonese porridge)

    It says Roasted Pork Rice..I guess this is Thai style

    Thai Dim Sum

    It took us abt 2 1/2 hr to reach Chiang Rai. On the way, we saw many small stalls selling grilled corn and grab 2 sticks...YES stick they have got this bamboo thrust into the corn. Very easy to eat instead of holding the corn itself that made it hard to eat like our version.Hands got dirty and messy.Love it very much.They don't grilled it at the stall and they kept the corn hot in a styrofoam box.FYI, the corn tasted DAMN good...very sweet and not dry like ours.It is a MUST TRY. The scenery to Chiang Rai was awesome...reminds me of going to Kedah via the coastal road.

    Finally we reached our hotel - Palm Garden http://www.thepalmgarden.com/ . Paid abt 767THB per nite with bbf. Very clean (room & bathroom -m very particular), friendly staff including the GM who is an American married to local Thai wife.They will greet us whenever they see you of course with Amazing Thai hospitality. They are a bit out fr the main city however I really don't mind since m staying in the city already and I just don't want to land myself in the city again. Tuk tuk is easily available.Just get the receptionist to call for you.The hotel is over looking the paddy field .What a view! Basic facilities.Only 1 restaurant that serves b'fast every morning. FYI, No elevator.Choose to stay on the 1st floor.

    At around 3 pm the bride & bridegroom (bro in law) came to the hotel...bought us some local food (kuih)...macam macam ada.Like some only. Then took us to Wat Rong Khun which is just 10 - 15 min to from our hotel. It was WOW!Just take a look at the pix. It is all white.Still under construction.They are building something beside which is GOLD in color. A must go place.

    Wat Rong Khun

    Then later we head to outskirt which took us 45 min to reach. It was the bride's house. Errr...can't recall the name.Is a simple village. And directly outside the house is a market. So easy if you wanna grab anything.And there's mini mart beside the house.Behind the house is a river. The bride's father breed cat fish there. There were lot's of ppl at the house helping out to get ready for the big day. All the villagers came voluntarily to help out. They were bz cutting veges, pork, beef etc.When we reached there,we had a lot of food to eat but what it is I had no idea. Then they served hubby some spirit (HOMEMADE)....GOD KNOWS WHAT IS THE ALCOHOL CONTENT...I guess is worst than tuak...it is made of glutinous rice.


    Some kuih muih ala Thai

    Neighbours & Relatives came to help on the pre-wedding day

    The bride's mom make us BBQ pork with special chili sauce.Then later in the evening the aunty made us cat fish soup and had it with glutinous rice (sticky rice) They hardly eat steam rice.The fish was fresh and the soup tasted like Tom Yam but it wasn't spicy...specially tailored made for us. Mind you Chiang Rai people eat EXTREMELy spicy food. M a fan of spicy food however I couldn't take it. It felt like the volcano is going to errupt....yeah! Because of the spiciness, I had gastric pain for 2 days and lucky me to have brought along Zantac and restrain myself from eating chili for the last 4 days I was there. Drink milk every now & then

    Grilling Pork

    Cat Fish Soup.

    Their Som Tam too tasted different...very salty & spicy, they used fish sauce and prawn sauce/paste (very strong smell of belacan & Kelantan's budu. I do eat belacan however I have stay away from this one). I prefer the one I had in BKK or Hatyai. Sweet, Sour & Spicy.

    Zzzzz...To be continued.

  • Food Republic @ Pavillion Kuala Lumpur

    It has been a while ...or shall I say I have not made any trips to any mall in KL. So I decided to go during Awal Muharram as I expected there weren't any traffic jam.N I was right. Traffic was perfect. I have not really explore Pavillion. And this is my 3rd visit to Pavillion n most of the time I went to meet up friends an chit chat at those eating outlet...can't even remember the name... I used to work around that area however Pavillion was still in progress years ago. I was hungry n went down to the so call food court....WOW!so nice...like those in Singapore. And u can find all sorts of variety and from different countries. I saw one particular stall which is quite different from the rest, it was fried prawn noodle serve in Nipah leave...YUP not banana leave. We usually have out Mee Goreng or Char Koay Teow serve on banana leaves.

    So this one is different..I had that before while in Atria food court Singapore.And it tasted very good while I wasin S'pore.This one is not too bad either however the sambal chili quite dissapointing.And not quite the same as it expected it to be. Too diluted. And it cost me S$4.00 in Spore. And the one in PAvilion cost me RM7.00. Ummm...I think is too expensive for a Malaysian. And m comparing dollar to dollar count. Why can't they charge us only RM4.00.Is the nipah leaves imported from Singapore and the prawns, noodle are imported from Singapore?FYI, we have all the resources and I dunno why Malaysian always have to pay so much for food. When Singaporean pay lesser in their own country.Is the rental very high?Atria is also located at the prime area - Orchard Road.And m sure their rental don't come cheap either.And many years ago, I could get a glass of soya milk at S$0.80 and while in Malaysia, we are being charged at RM1.00 during that time.Wonder what is the different?

     Anyway, here are some food that I managed to capture.Food looks great but m not sure about the taste. By the way, I don't recommend the Pan Mee....I think normal hawkers centre taste better.Tried some tarts... really good. I tried the durian tart and egg white with milk (healthier)...it taste good without the yolk and can taste the milk too

  • Xing Chao - Greetings in Vietnam (part 1)

    Went to work in d morning for half day and rushed back home to catch a taxi to LCCT. Got my free ticket (who else Air Asia lah) since last year n cost me about RM300 (KL/HCMC/KL) which include 15 kg bag charge.(is expensive cos fuel surcharge involved)....I didn't get refund even though the fuel surcharge is no longer applicable for this year. Flight was delayed for 1 hour and by the time I reached HCMC it was 7.30pm (HCMC is 1 hr behind M'sia) . And poor boy (Eric from hotel) waited for us and was very hungry. WOW! it was a Freelander 4x4.WOW! this budget hotel definately got a little bit of class.It was a wet wet wet day.It took us about 30 - 45 min to reach District 1 which was bustling at nite and we were so confused with our bearings .

    According to Eric - it was the beginning of rainy season or the wet season (was there late April to early May). And finally we reached our hotel, and the driver stopped by the road side and some ladies came running to us with umbrellas, OMG where's the hotel, do I have to walk somewhere. For a moment , I regretted to have book this hotel. The next thing was, they took us to walk down an alley...OMG where are they taking us too? Was clueless, and the more regrets I had. Thought it was a red light district area.Finally less than 1 min, we reached the budget hotel which was run by the family and...WOW! so clean.So they gave us the key. We all have to leave our passpost with them. Reason being every night they need to report to the nearest police station who are the in house guests.So police will know that all tourist do not carry their passport. My room was on the 1st flr, and I had my triple sharing room. Towels super white, comes with mini bar (beer, juices,mineral water etc - chargeable of course), bathroom was clean with soap, tooth brush & paste and hot shower too....So was I happy with room ...YES...!Actually, it was good to have the hotel at this quiet alley cos it is less noisy compare to the hotel by the main street. So the next thing was, we went for some munch and Eric actually gave us some restaurant name ...got a lot of choice but we have no choice but to eat there. Quite expensive.M expecting some hawkers food like Thailand...U know what I mean. This restaurant called Gom was just next to the famous Travel agent called Sinh Cafe. Can you imagine 4 pcs of Spring Roll (Vegetarian ) cost me VND45000 (RM10.00)....it is not cheap at all being a 3rd world country. What d heck , we really dunno where we are ,so makan saja lar. Then we went to get some mineral water 1.5L @ VND8000 (RM1.80) and I found out there is this convenient store further up d road cost VND5000 (RM1.10). By the way, it is only drinking water not mineral water.Mineral water will cost more. It is advisable not to drink any roadside drinks which may cause diarrhea, however I guess being Malaysian, we are used to hawkers' food...so I did drink and eat roadside hawker's food... so far no problem. And end of my first day in Saigon Hotel that I stayed in was www.nhatthaohotel.com . How it looks like, it is exactly what u see on the website.

    Here's some uploaded photos Vietnam - Ho Chin Minh City, Dalat & mekong Delta
