2011 @ Subway

I noticed Subway at Juru Autocity around 2006-2007, and it has catch my appetit since then.



My 2 favourite orders, of course must be with Parmesan bread.



Now every time you spend RM25 and above, you will be given a 2011 special calendar


There's something for me every single month till Dec'11, I really feel rewarded with my royalty.






What a great deal, with a great meal, bon appetit !!








2010 Christmas @ Straits Quay

Straits Quay is the new landmark in Penang.
It's easy to get there, just turn right at the Island Plaza traffic lights if you were from Gurney Drive.






A lively fountain always welcoming its guests






Christmas by the sea @ Straits Quay



Beautiful architecture building


Strategically located in front of a marina, but i can't find any boat / yacht, yet ..

It has a structure looking like a rocket launching pad, maybe symbolizing Penang is being governed by DAP, a rocket party, at this point of time.




Well planned landscape with the right plants at the right place


F&B outlets are going to occupy its ground floor, direct facing the sea.
So far there are about 20-30% open for business.

We have Italian food in Bella Marino
Mediterranean Agua

Malaysian Blue Reef


If we were to put these 3 photos above together, it would sounds like: Getting a boat at the marina going to the water to get a fish (Agua in Spanish means water :)

Finnegan's Irish Pub


Asian Cheeky Duck


Another Irish pub is coming up. There would be 2 Irish pubs, 2 Italian restaurants, and 2 German bierhaus @ Straits Quay (SQ is my newly founded abbreviation for the place)





Familiar names like Pappa Rich and Starbucks are also joining the fray.



My assessment on SQ : It would be either very good or down the drain in 6 months time. The management needs to be sensitive to Penangite expectations.
Anyway, just make your plan to SQ this coming holiday season, bon appetit !!

A date with John Barnes in Penang ..

I met my childhood idol John Barnes in Penang.
He is currently the ambassador for Carlsberg Brewery.


John is one of the factors for me to fall in love with Liverpool Football Club.
At the function in Penang, he brought along two gorgeous Carlsberg ladies.



Thanks John, you really make my day and shape my life, to some extent :)
I told one of my friends saying if I hit a jackpot, then I will propose to these two beautiful ladies for them to become my wives, hope that it's legally do-able (:



Mooncake Container

A unique mooncake metal container for a single piece of mooncake, from Hong Kong.

First World Hotel

We always have an impression that the rooms inside the First World Hotel, Genting Highlands, are comparable to those budget hotels in Hong Kong, with narrow walkway and tiny bathroom.

But there are nice rooms inside the First World. This type of room shown is called World Club Room, a spacious room with a small living room. Good touch up comes with 2 sliding doors clothing cabinet.

It's situated indirect opposite of Nandos.


Ice creams come with Italian flavour, you must try one day ...

2010 Singapore Grand Priz and me ...

If I won the two tickets to the Singaporean night race, I would bring a friend of mine to watch the race and in the mean time, to observe and study the possibility of turning Malaysian Grand Prix into an early Sunday morning race, from 4am to 7am, with the Sun rising while the drivers passing through the chequered flag.

You'll Never Walk Alone - lyrics

When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don’t be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm
There’s a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark

Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Through your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone

Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll ne-ever walk alone
