The Weekends: Breakfast people!

As usual, the weekends passes by in a fly.  Regardless of the time you push yourself to wake up to and start doing work, it always goes.   Nonetheless, there are always a few good ways to have a good start to the weekend.  This in particular if you’re a Malaysian who missed the last flight home in Winter :D!  Time to be mesmerised by the good Malaysian breakfast Perth has to offer!

The mornings of my recent two weekends have been fed by two familiar food found in Malaysia.  I’ve officially declared them, the loves of my morning hunger since young. Mom knows it better than ever and I’ve always had these for brekkie in the mornings ahah.

Saturday and Sunday breakfast special
7:30am -2:00pm
Check the FoodPornographer’s blog for more coverage although I’d personally not recommend Gopis Roti Canai/Prata.

Next up is the best Roti Canai/Prata I have ever tasted in Australia.  Seriously!!

The Roti in Jewel of the Park is the best I’ve ever tasted.  It feels like the real one although it actually is considering how the good lads at the restaurant has a Sri Lankan whom work experience hails from the Mamak stalls in Malaysia.  Definitely a blast for the hungry people.  Malaysians looking for cheap and good deals would love this to bits.  Get 2 LARGE Pieces and a small cup of teh tarik for $5.90.  Deal done!  The curry only gets a credit though.  The sambal and dhal gets my marks. 

Jewel of the Park Indian Restaurant.
765 Albany Highway
East Victoria Park, Perth. 6101
Sat - Sun Breakfast - 8am to 10.30am

;-)! Yes and breakfast is important.   With these two in work for morning sessions, Makan Makan on Victoria Park is a disguised victor looming about in failure.  On the other hand, in the night, its super sweet and cheap teh tarik might help it gain its lost recognition.

On a side note: Great meet up yesterday as I have not seen Yvonne for like a gazillion years.  Korean barbecue at Tong 86 FTW.

Melbourne: Streething.

IMG_7252“This post is definitely not the Streething you would probably have instilled into your brains if you are a sneakerhead or just a casual nut.”
5 weeks or so since my trip to Melbourne and my only non-Melbourne post so far was the new Iphone4 which I’ve just got from my telco recently.  Sorry bout the abandonment of this bloggy for the past few days because really, it’s been such busy period considering the experiments that needs to be done and sort for the bloody thesis.  Sorry that the little darling is a bit neglected too!  Insane it is.  This weeks has been about me and the high speed camera playing hide and seek like Tom and Jerry.  Me being the bigger size one probably fits in as Tom.  Luckily enough, I managed to get a replacement camera and yeah man!   This thing shoots like hell!  Hopefully the post analysis gives me the results I want!! I had sometime for myself recently and after playing some StarCraft, I realise that there were pictures of Melbourne which I have failed to post up.  These pics were taken along Hoosier Lane, a street famous for its street art.

Dear Leonardo Da Vinci,

Mona Lisa was perfect.  Her eyes, her hair, her lips.  But she’s so yesterday.  There you go, the modern reinterpretation.

IPhone4: The free gift from my telco.

Jeng jeng jeng, I posted on my Facebook not too long ago that I was hopeful to get my  iphone4 not too long after the Friday launch day in Australia.  I was promised a delivery on the morning of the launch only to be disappointed by the lack of knowledge by the call centre.  But that was really not a biggie because after a couple of phone calls, the phone arrived just three days later.  And here we have the two iphone in the house ahah.  When Vanessa comes then we will have three hoho!

The best thing about the phone is its looks.  Not the facetime bullshit that does not even work with 3G.  It only works with wifi.  Gawd that is saddening!  Not to mention, transferring the contacts are a pain in the ass unless you are the most organised computer expert who keeps all the details in MS Outlook.  I believe not even 1% of the population does so =.=!

But enough rants, this shit is a beauty. The retina display is not joke.  Just like how HD on my new Fujitsu brings the Book of Eli to a new level compared to the aging Toshiba one.  The screen is clear and games look crisp.  Ok, a bit of exaggeration here considering the only games I’ve played is Angry Bird and Fruit Ninja ahah.

His and Hers.  slurrpsss.  In Malaysia I hear they sell for over 3000 ringgit each =X.  $$$!!

Ok some emergency calls for me!!!  Got to go! Light speed ahead gooooooooooooooo!!

WenY!
