A Lure Fishing Project

A secret project is about to commence.... A group of fishing enthusiasts is trying to conduct a large scale lure game ponds full of monster predatory fishes.... But this is just an initial idea and now we are surveying some existing fish ponds and still in discussion on how to convert them.....
With the sufficient existing ponds and manpower it is easier than what we initially thought....
The existing ponds are now growing this Australia Jade Perch naturally....
Well, the owner caught a few for our lunch consumption that afternoon....
Fresh steam method...
And deep fried with seasoning sauce.... They look yummy and tasted even yummier!....

A trip to Beijing

An unexpected trip to Beijing.... Out of the blue a friend called up and informed that I should come over immediately to meet up someone concerning my China prospect.... I booked my ticket right a way after the call and flew over that night itself....
Well, I can't tell you what exactly was involved but I can surely show you the Beijing food delight.... When talking about the old Beijing, you should not miss out on the Beijing Hutongs 北京老胡同.... a traditional courtyards and alleys....
兴丰包子 Hing Fung Dumpling which was proudly introduced after the visit of the Chinese president Xi Jinping..... No so bad... I personally love the 北京炒肝 Beijing Chaogan, a starchy dish that is made with pork liver, pork intestine with the garlic, soy sauce and vinegar seasoning...
Beijing is really cold in this time of the year.... Let's go for something hot.....
Queuing is compulsory when you want to dine-in in a famous restaurant...
Yes! Beijing Lamb Hot Pot..... I am starving, can't wait no more...
 ..... Nice sunrise the next day....
What we had in the morning for breakfast was Beijing Soy Bean Paste Noodle  北京炸酱面, Fermented Hot Soy Milk 豆汁...
Ohhh! Too many eating stuffs,... Let's cool down with some Chinese Tea.....

Chinese New Year Holiday @ Langkawi

Now a days you can't really separate the child and its video game.... What a big difference from our time. So, get out of the house and here we come Pulau Langkawi....
Thanks to a friend that helped me booked a good chalet at the beach side at the last minute.... it was not easy job at all since it was the Chinese New Year holiday season....
This was a long over due vacation with the family & friend... Kids and wife were overjoyed to holiday here.... Sunshine, sea breeze, white sandy beach and my family, what more could I ask for....
Beautiful scenes along the sea side.....
FISH FARM a famous seafood restaurant at the beach... recommended by a friend... The ambiance was nice but the food serving was too slow... Maybe because of the holiday crowd...
I let my kids play until very late in the night... Well, better than they play with their video game...hahaha...
