蓬莱茶房 @Sunway Pyramid & The Garden

在Sunway Pyramid 逛街的时候遇到午餐时间,我们就努力“物色”好吃的餐厅,准备好好善待我们的“五脏府”以便待会儿能够走更长的路,逛更多间的店。
经过了好多间餐厅,都没有一间是吸引我的,最后我却被这间吸引到了----蓬莱茶房。


蓬莱茶房是我每次去The Garden, 都会看到很多人在外面排队的其中一间餐厅,但是从来就没有亲自进去过。今天我们经过两次了,店内除了坐满人潮,店外也站满了排队要进去用餐的人。就是这个原因让我很好奇地想进去品尝,想知道到底这间店的食物有什么好吃。 
就这样,我们就去排队了。

这是我们的幸运号码-4 号!
真的觉得这家店很用心,看!连排队拿号码也有那么美丽的卡片!

我们在排队的时候就可以翻开menu“讨论”待会儿要点的食物, 而且在我们排队的时候,服务员还细心地为我们捧上两杯的柑桔汁。
虽然只是一杯小小的水,却让我们对这间店多了一份归属感,感觉那边的服务生都很亲切。 他们的服务费,我可是付得心甘情愿的!

这间店的食物其实不是很贵,但是乍看之下,他们的饮料可是一点都不便宜哦!
一杯很普通的柑桔汁都要RM6.30, 一瓶矿泉水RM3.30, 一壶菊花乌龙茶也要RM12。。。
不过如果你是负担得起,这些都不算什么。

我们点了一个番茄炒蛋焖鱼套餐

还有一个干捞乌冬牛肉面套餐。

番茄炒炒蛋焖鱼是装在一个小锅里面, 小锅 下面是一个还在点着火的小炉, 很可爱! 
而且食物送到很久了,小锅里的炒蛋焖鱼汁还在滚着,热腾腾的烟还不断冒出来。
 
在每个套餐里,配菜都是大同小异的。
不过最令我们喜欢的配菜就是这碗汤了!
这碗不是味精汤,而是一碗真材实料的药材鸡汤,而且里面还有很大块的鸡肉,那感觉很有妈妈的味道!

其实菜单里面还有很多台湾小食的,但是因为我们只有两个人,所以只能点两道食物而已。

这间每次店里店外都充满人潮的餐馆,是值得进去尝一尝的。如果你有机会去到The Garden或Sunway Pyramid的话,不妨有耐性地去排队然后点一些台湾小食来品尝。

自杀?不要!

 自杀事件一直以来从没间断过,但是最近江世丰跳楼事件却是轰动全国。 
也因为他的跳楼,大家开始关注“自杀”这回事。

对于他的行为,有人严厉批评,有人却把他封为“情圣”。警方更是在媒体声明:”自杀是刑事,会被提空的!”


随着江世丰事件,有人模仿他在网上留"遗书“倒数自己的日子,更有网友说要报警抓他!

我不是什么专家,没资格批评人家,只想在这里分享自己的看法。

大家都严厉批评和谴责自杀者,还有那些赞成他做法的人,但是有多少人是用心去关心这些人包括赞同自杀行为的人呢???

有多少人尝试站在他们那边看,看为什么他们会这样做呢??生命何其珍贵,为什么他们视为无物,随手可丢呢?

现在的年轻人都被称为”草莓族“,外表鲜丽可是内心脆弱。
那又是什么原因造成他们这样呢?? 

在这年头,大多数父母都以为只要自己给孩子所有的物质享受就是”爱“,试问有几个做父母的真正关心孩子内心世界呢?? 又有几个父母愿意花时间和心思去跟孩子做”朋友“,认真聆听他们的心声然后努力了解他们呢?? 

我懂东方父母都是比较含蓄,不懂得表达对孩子的爱,甚至很多父母都摆出”我是长辈“的模样,可是这一套已经不适合用在这个年代了! 孩子什么时候初恋,什么时候喜欢异性,什么时候不开心, 在外面交怎样的朋友。。。有几个父母知道??

有多少父母在孩子失意的时候把孩子抱在怀中,然后温柔的说:”别怕,你还有爸爸妈妈在身边支持你!“之类鼓励的话?

在这年头,不难发现很多孩子都把”家“当成是一个睡觉的地方而已,为什么??

再说我们自己,良心自问,我们当中,又有几个人是真正关心自己身边的人呢?包括自己的家人,朋友,同学或同事。

 在这个个人主义的时代,大多数人都只追求自我的成就,有多少人会留心发现身边有人在流泪着,彷徨着,受伤着?? 

我们说要报警抓那么预言自己要自杀的人,因为他们为社会做不良示范。但是,我们不是更应该去关心这个人吗?让他知道人间还有爱,有希望。。。不是更实际吗?


朋友们,请停止谴责那些自杀者,死者已矣,让我们转个角度关怀那些站在生命边沿,内心世界是无助而且是彷徨的另一群人吧!
他们会厌世,我们身为社会的一分子或多或少都有责任。
那是因为我们往往都忽略了身边人发出的”求助信息“!

各位父母,各位朋友,物质并不是”爱“,”吃喝玩乐“也不是做朋友的唯一活动,偶尔放下生活脚步,关心一下身边的孩子,家人和朋友。偶尔一起去做义工,出席宗教活动,会让你们促进彼此关系,甚至会让你们对生命有不一样的看法。

希望读着文章的你们好好珍惜自己的生命,妈妈怀胎十个月不是一件容易的事情。不管发生什么事情,都要坚强!不是每个人生来这个世界都是四肢健全,丰衣足食的! 无论遇到任何事情,请记住”死亡不能解决一切!“

人的一生就像一部连续集,故事有低潮和高潮,如果没有伤心失望的滋味,你又如何能品尝到快乐高兴的滋味呢?每一个低潮,每一个挫折是我们生命中的磨炼,是必经之路,只要熬过了,我们又长大了。。世上没有熬不过的挫折,不要小看自己,  记得给自己一个生存的机会!

请爱自己,请爱你身边的每一位!

Ireland's potato-@ Sunway Pyramid & Times Square



Hang out with friend to Sunway Pyramid yesterday. When we reached there, she told me that she want bring me go to somewhere to eat french fried. 

At the moment, my mind was thinking that, "har? french fried? french fried can eat at everywhere, there is nothing special, why you introduce me to eat french fried?"

End up, we came to the TGV cinema which located at the highest floor.
In front the cinema, i saw a stall- Ireland's potato (爱尔兰疯薯).
 If your mind thinking that Ireland's potato is came from Ireland, then you are wrong! It was actually came from Hong Kong.

Sunway Pyramid( in front TGV) is their first outlet in Malaysia, 
and now 
they opened the second outlet at Times Square (in front GSC). 
Although both the stalls opened in front cinema, but their food is not allowed to bring in, unless you are 'SMART' enough. 

Picture taken from Ireland's potato website.
There are variety of sauces available for you to choose, end up we ordered Honey Mustard Potato chips (蜂蜜芥兰酱), it cost RM8.80.
This sauce is the best selling sauce. In the picture,  the green colour flour is wasabi but it is not spicy. 
I like the sauce so much, really nice, thumb up! 

I know that some people will said " wah, so expensive! RM 8.80 just for french fried." 
But after you has a first try, I sure that you will like it and definitely will forget the RM8.80. 
 I noticed their logo there written:
Ireland's proverb says: there are two things in the world that can't be joked: 1. marriage 2, potato
I was curious about this. Why potato? Is potato so important for Ireland's people?
Hmmm, let's Google search later for the answer.

大山脚美食篇-芋头饭

刚在蕉赖所谓的“唯食街”用餐。
所谓“唯食街”应该有很多食物才对,可是这里却让我觉得档口很少,
都不懂为什么它叫“唯食街”?

才走到“唯食街”的第一档,就看到摊子的招牌写着“大山脚X记”,接下来就是“槟城虾面”, 炒果条,蚝煎。。。。

身在异乡的我,看到人家的招牌写着“槟城XXX”,“大山脚XXX”的时候是特别兴奋难和光荣的,但是也同时也让我想念家乡的美食了。

刚才闪过我脑海的就是大山脚芋头饭了。

如果你去过大山脚,可是却没吃过芋头饭,那你就走宝了哦!

在大山脚不难找到卖芋头饭的档口,
但是唯独这间“大山脚芋饭专卖店”是最著名的。 
这间坐落于旧的大山脚学院(IBM)对面的芋头饭每天都迎来了很多顾客,
尤其是周末和假期。

看,这就是今天的主角了-芋头饭。
饭是用芋头、虾米烹煮出来,饭绵密却粒粒分明,虾米的香味很重却盖不掉芋头的香气。
白白一团的就是芋头了。

是不是还没吃就感觉到那个味道了呢?

当然,一碗香喷喷的芋头饭,还得配上猪杂汤,才叫完美。
汤是以水梅、咸菜熬制出来,加上猪肉丸、瘦肉、三层肉、猪内脏等丰富的猪什汤。
如果你不喜欢猪内脏或者三层肉的话,可以要求老板只放猪肉丸。

我听说有几个美食节目之前来找过老板说要介绍他们的芋头饭,但是都被老板拒绝了,也因为这样,很多外地人都不懂大山脚原来有那么美味的食物。

这是一碗充满大山脚味道的芋头饭,在我们心中永远无法被取代,它象征着大山脚。

以下就是大山脚芋饭专卖店的地址:

6, Jalan Murthy, 14000 Bukit Mertajam, Penang.

地点就在大山脚伯公埕附近。

Balls and All- Tofu Ball and Dessie



Still Remember Balls and All that i introduced last time?

 Now,there are two more flavors available here -  
Tofu Ball and Dessie. 

 Tofu ball made by herbs, vegetables and cheese. 
They stuff lots of cheeses in the tofu ball. 

A picture is worth thousands words, lets take a look! 

 
See, there is a lot of cheeses inside the balls, I really like it!

Dessie- i called it as " pumpkin ball".
It made by butternut pumpkin and assorted herbs. 
Dessie is sweet and full of nutrients. 


Sister and I did enjoy our meal at Balls and All with a cup of Perfect Ice ( dragon fruit mixed with honeydew). 
wooouuuu...it is really PERFECT!



For your information, their apple sauce is made from granny smiths and spices. You can try it with tofu ball.
Hmmm, I will give it a try next time when I go with my boyfriend.

At the end of the post, I would like to thanks Balls and All for RM10 gift voucher. Thank You very much.
