Trip to Legoland - Part 1

This is actually unplanned trip...when i renewed my car road tax, i got legoland voucher from the insurance company that valid for a year..
So, one weekend hubby asked what is our planning this week..and I said let's travel..
The next thing we knew, we were already in JB after 6 hours drive..
We reached around 6pm..off for some shopping in JPO..then had dinner at Stulang..
Later, search for hotels near to Nusa Jaya..
There's a few budget hotel but full house...
At last we managed to get last room in one of the Boutique Hotel, though the room is small for a price of RM120 but quite comfortable..

The next day, after breakfast we headed straight to Legoland...
One of my school friend is working here but because it was unplanned trip, didn't get opportunity to meet her..
Lucky enough, the weather was hot and sunny through the day...really really hot I must say..not much shades yet..the most item we bought inside Legoland is drinks...

Dont forget to take the Legoland Map at the entrance..it will be a good guidance..
We took like hundreds of pictures...every single thing...
We spend almost the whole day there..starts from 10am till 4pm..

There is a few separate sections and games, but you can see many lego builds anywhere anyplace in it...So, enjoy the pictures..

Kota Kinabalu Sabah

Actually trip ke KK ni pada masa bulan puasa yang lalu (1st week of Ramadan)..first time puasa minggu pertama kena out station..atas urusan kerja sebagai delegasi... Actually ni kali kedua ke KK atas urusan kerja..atas urusan holiday belum sempat lagi...

So, masa kat KK stay kat Hotel Le Meridien..sebab lokasi strategik..senang nak jalan-jalan and cari makan sebab semua spot area just a walking distance..

Ni la bilik I for almost a week... dengan sorang lagi team partner..

 

Quite big bathroom...ada shower room and bath tub...

Then, disebabkan waktu siang sepenuhnya digunakan untuk urusan rasmi (cewah ayat!!)...and plus pulak bulan Ramadan, so memang tak sempat la nak berjalan-jalan ronda-ronda KK.so I cuma ble cite tentang makan-makan je la.one thing yang best hari hari makan seafood...

First day, kedai yang we all pegi tu tak best sangat..ikan bakar bodoh je (i yang bagi nama ni)..dah la sejuk, keras pulak tu...then of course la kena try rumpai laut Sabah. SO, we all try yang macam biji-biji ni...Sedap..rangup-rangup sikit..i like..

 

Menu hari pertama di medan ikan bakar

Kemudian, hari kedua, our driver bawa la kami ke satu restoran yang katanya agak famous di KK...
i order nasi ayam...erk...i must say..menu original Sabah tu tak berapa nak masuk dengan tekak i...
So, hari ketiga, my bosses cakap..hari ni kita makan seafood je..So, tak perlu nak pergi jauh-jauh.. Sebab berhampiran dengan hotel tu sebelah dengan Pasar Filipina tu kan ada satu area makan yang besar. Gerai-gerai kat situ semuanya jual seafood.. Tips penting, survey dulu harga bagi setiap makanan. Walaupun menu sama, tapi ada sesetengah gerai yang lebih murah..Lebih-lebih lagi kalau kita ni nampak macam orang luar, ada juga kedai yang tekan harga..Nyaris-nyaris terkena, nasib baik dah survey a few gerai, then baru decide..Tengok kedai yang ramai pengunjung tak semestinya yang termurah dan sedap..

 Gambar-gambar ni bukan di pasar ye, sebaliknya adalah makanan laut yang display untuk dipilih..
Kaedahnya, pilih makanan laut yang dikehendaki..timbang...then bagitau nak masak ape..

Udang..Lobster..Heaven

Macam-macam jenis ikan

 Antara menu yang we all order ~ actually banyak lagi.tapi ada yang terlupa/tak sempat nak snap...antara yang tiada dalam gambar, soft crab goreng tepung, udang goreng tepung, kepah halia, sayur Sabah goreng belacan

Chili Crab

Ikan sweet sour

Ikan Bakar

Tuger Prawn Buttermilk

Mahbub Nasi Beriyani

This is one of our favourite beriyani in KL.. Lokasi opposite Bangsar Village, Bangsar. Apa yang best? Of course la nasi beriyani . Ada dua jenis nasi beriyani bukhara dan nasi beriyani ayam madu..serve satu set dengan acar timun dan dalca..atau boleh minta set kambing atau daging.. please bear yang setiap lauk tu sebenarnya boleh makan 2 orang..Selalu, we all minta 1 set je dan tambah satu lagi nasi..kecuali kalau sangat lapar, then baru order 1 set seorang..and for me, setiap kali makan tetap tak boleh nak menghabiskan nasi tu sepinggan..serius, banyak..so, for ladies ~ 1 set boleh makan untuk 2 orang..

Lain-lain menu best adalah sup dan tandori and lain-lain menu restoran mamak..

Sup dia ok..pekat likat and berempah

Manakala Roti Nan dia pulak..terbaek!! Lembut gebu.. 

Yang uniknya kat sini ada roti nan ayam dan daging..di mana ayam atau daging yang dicincang (beef flos) akan diletak antara roti..

Sebab apa we all suka? Sebab the only beriyani yang kat KL ni yang macam Restoran Hameediyah, Penang..oo, one more thing, nasi beriyani mamak tak sama macam nasi beriyani johor tu..hmm...kalau sapa yang biasa, mesti tau perbezaannya macam mana, which is tak berapa berempah..

Sup Mamak

Sup Tulang

Nasi Beriyani Ayam Madu

Satu set dengan timun dan dalca..

Nasi beriyani ayam paha pula..

One complete set

Roti Naan Daging yang lembut dan gebu - macam pau ada inti daging kat dalamnya.

About Steak

Just some information about steak:

Milwaukee Steak Corner

Milwaukee Steak Corner in Balakong, Selangor...

I have tried many local western food  restaurant around kajang, bangi and cheras..and usually for first time i will order steak, either sirloin or rib eye will be my favourite..

But most of the restaurant disappointing me..even i have told them that i like my steak to be medium rare..and each time i will get well-done meat..not juicy and some time hard to chew..

To be franked, i ni memang skeptical sikit tentang local western food restaurant sebab most of them not really understand the art of cooking good steak..but i like to try those local restaurant..bagi support la konon..takkan everytime nak makan kat TGIF kan...

Ada sekali tu satu restoran di Bangi, dalam menu tulis served with mashed potato..dah teruja sebab jarang kan ada restoran hidangkan mashed potato. tapi bila sampai depan mata, it was baked potato!! Bila tanya waiter tu, selumber je cakap memang serve macam ni..duh!! Rasa nak masuk dapur jumpa tukang masak tu..mashed and baked potato tu dua benda berlainan kot.. the menu said mashed, so i expected it to be mashed not baked!!! Stupid chef..

But last week so happen lalu Balakong nampak Milwaukee ke..so, memandangkan dalam bulan puasa ni belum lagi makan kat luar, Mr hubby cadangkan we try this restaurant..cadangan yang diterima tanpa bantahan langsung..

But in the end, tidak mendukacitakan...the meat was grilled to my expectation. I requested for medium rare and i got medium rare..lembut and juicy..Love it so much, the juice flow out when cutting the steak..

So now enjoy the pictures...
