NEW PR! NEW STUFF! !

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG I did a new personal record for my 10KM(not sure if its the actual distance but I measured using my gf's car). 1Hour 10mins and 30seconds! My previous best timing would probably be from last month's Men's Health Run 2008 - 10.3KM Clocking 1Hour 11Mins 38Seconds. Here is what I ate throughout the day before the run. Pictures of the roti telur is shown later in this post.

11.00am Breakfast after Sunday mass 1 piece of roti telur Some mee goreng that my brother in law ordered. He gave me some to try. Damn the chicken curry was freaking salty. 1 cup of Teh C ice

1.00pm 2 Donuts - 1 is choc with peanut butter. the other was with dark choc 1 cup of coffee

3.30pm Noodles + some meat.

4.00pm 1 Nuts delight Energy Bar

5.10pm Ran 10KM

I did my first 10KM training with my gf 2 week ago (21.09.2008) and it felt good. For the first time, I've ran 10KM as my training. I paced with her and we both finished in 1Hour 12 to 15mins. But the main point is, we've both completed 10KM and we ran TOGETHER. What more could I ask? I've been running alone all these while and now to have my love one running with me. Priceless. I'm arrived in office today and saw my colleague, Edmund who just came back from US last week but only came in to office this week. My LiveStrong Wristbands are here!!!!.

As usual, MORE FOOD. People who are on a hunger strike, BEWARE!

First stop, Simply Penang @ 1 Utama Old Wing. Ok, as you can see from the picture, it was dated back 20.09.2008. Don't complain, I wuz busy. Me and my gf was at this cafe called Simply Penang. The food looks nice and decent from the banners displayed outside so we decided to give it a try. Upon sitting down and browsing through the menu, I somehow felt alittle deja vu.

True enough, I have eaten at one of their branches before. It was near my home at Puchong. And...the food wasn't really that nice. Anyway, since it was a different branch, might as well give it a go. We proceeded with our orders and I began snapping pictures haha.


Photobucket
My "Cham" and my gf's Chin Chau. The Cham(coffee and tea) was not bad. Not too sweet and the mix was balanced. Well I ain't a food critic but it was good enough for me.

Photobucket
My Nasi Lemak. They even gave me extra sambal and gravy for the curry. Pretty slick customer service haha.

Photobucket
Da Chicken Curry. The rice was alittle hard but no biggie as it still tastes nice and fragrant.

Photobucket
Soon after my nasi lemak arrived, my gf's Assam Laksa was ready.

Photobucket
Since I couldn't see wtf they have under the whole pile of soup, I asked my sayang to demo sikit haha.


Second stop, Kafe Joy! Man, you HAVE TO GO THERE. Highly recommended. The food is awesome, fresh and well presented. Drinks? From your usual soft drinks to herbal drinks and ice blended juices BUT they have some really weird combination. You guys heard of Old Town White coffee? They have Joy ORANGE White Coffee, which I ordered.

Photobucket
The shop and yes, I took this while standing at the junction with a small triangle divder.

Photobucket
The entrance.

Photobucket
On the left you have this huge mirror.

Photobucket
The place where your drinks are prepared.

Photobucket
Cashier =P Check out the Retro radio next to the modern radio.

Photobucket
Whatever this means. All I can read is the word "TA!" for big.

Chow time! Glorious food has landed. First up, drinks!

Photobucket
My Joy Cafe Orange White Coffee, not bad. But if given a choice, I would get another drink. Don't get me wrong, it is nice.

Photobucket
Cucumber and plum orderd by Joanne and Sai Mei :)

Photobucket
My Dry Curry Chicken Noodle. THIS IS AWESOME! And guess what...it is only RM6.90. Small portion? Wait till you finish it. The noodles are made by themselves! NOT THOSE WAN TAN MEE NOODLES. The texture, my God, how do they say it? Q Q ? By the time you finish it, it's pretty filling.

Photobucket
It came with this soup as well haha, however, I only took afew sips of it.

Photobucket
Next up, Joanne ordered this Siamese Assam Laksa(We all heard she said Sai Mei's Assam Laksa when ordering HAHAHAHA). She couldn't finish it as it was a big bowl. Certainly looks good.

Photobucket
Sai Mei ordered the Joy Nasi Lemak Special I think. Chicken Rendang on the left and Sotong with sambal on the right. She said the rice was very fragant as well.

Third stop, Nyonya Colors @ 1 Utama just last weekend. Was hungry and wanted to grab a quick bite.

Photobucket
My gf ordered Dry Curry Laksa, which doesn't look dry to me. =.="

Photobucket
I decided to try the Thai Mee Siam + Honey Lemon Chicken this time. Not bad, the chicken was not hard as rock like some reheated fried chicken. At least they are consistent.


Fourth Stop, was at some mamak near the church on Sunday(yesterday lah). Ordered Roti Telur.

Photobucket
Where is d egg?

Photobucket
Oh, there. Damn did they really use 1 egg?
