Posted on By sweet surrender 14 Comments on The Opening Ceremony Of Sushi King In Sarawak – Part 1

YO! So happy! Got invited to the Opening Ceremony of Sushi King in Sarawak at Boulevard hehehe… Woke up so early today because of this. Need to go there early, scare can’t find parking. I went to pick up Alysha and then we went to Jimmy’s house and waited for Rose, 4 of us went in one car 😛 Met Greg there.

YAY! We’re here. Registered ourselves and we got a goodie bag each! Guess what!??!?! FREE Sushi King card! I had spent my RM15 applied for it the other time, so regret… Hahaha… I’m selling it off and it’s SOLD for RM10! 😛 There’s a pen in there, RM10 voucher, and ang pao packets(no money of course).


Hehehe… Went early and got the front row 😛 While waiting for the VIPs, we were feast with Sarawak traditional music.


Left: Waiting for the VIPs.
Right: Silas the MC.


Orang Ulu traditional dance. However, they were not all in Orang Ulu’s costumes. According to Silas, those with feathers were Kelabit (they called themselves Anak Adi Rurum Kelabit) and those with interesting head dress were the Lun Bawangs.


Left: Sushi King(Sushi Kin Sdn. Bhd.) is under Texchem Resources Sdn. Bhd. This is the the Founder/Chairman/CEO of Texchem, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Fumiko Konishi.
Middle: This is YB Haji Datuk Talip Zulpilip, chairman of SEDC(Sarawak Economic Development Corporation)
Right: Opening officiated! As far as I know, we were very good boys and girls, we tried not to interfere with those reporters. Only went up close after they were done.


Presenting a souvenir.

This is the press conference session. We got to know that there will be a Sushi King outlet opening in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah this 31st March. They are planning to open in Miri, Bintulu and Sibu. There will be 5-6 more outlets opening in Sarawak within this year to achieve the 50 outlets target. Currently there are 44 outlets in Malaysia. The thing about Sushi King that stood out from the rest is the pricing for West and East Malaysia are the same! I know the kentai sushi is the same(kudos to that!), the set meals aren’t… Hmm… Not so sure, as I got the price from the website that time.


Let’s cut the ribbon! We tried our best to stay out of the way of the reporters. I stood on the chair with Rose hehehe… What to do? We are so small hahaha…


Toured the place. We didn’t dare to follow but all the reporters followed. So we waited outside, then Greg went and we followed his back. When we were there, the Asst. Business Development Manager said,”Bloggers right? Yes, yes… Bloggers can go in, Go… Go… Go…”. *LOL* We quickly scrambled to the kitchen to take some shoots of the VIPs and the kitchen.


Left: You don’t get to see this everyday 😛 Hehehehe… The kitchen is clean and spotless.
Right: The buffet… Food post coming up in part 2 hehehe… OMG! Lots of sushi!!! Yum~ Yum~

Coo Coo Ron’s Cafe

Posted on By sweet surrender 19 Comments on Coo Coo Ron’s Cafe

Coo Coo Ron’s Cafe is quite new. The latest addition to the F&B industry in Kuching. Went there on 19th Janaury after I went to The Spring with my friend.

The location of this cafe is not that easy to locate. However, if you know Gold Jade Road, Green Road area, where the Hakka Association and those lottery tickets outlets are, then you will be able to find it because it’s just above the green one! Hehehe…


The interior, very simple.


We sat at the floor. You can opt for the table and chair seating or you can take off your footware and sit at the platform area.


View from the window and the menu.


The teas we ordered because we couldn’t order cold drinks, we’re having terrible cough and flu, Strawberry Tea(RM2.50), Lavender Lover(RM5) and Homemade Ginger Ale(RM3.50). Someone ordered two drinks 😛 I did order two also but the last one was just warm water hehehe…


The Club Sandwich(RM8). It’s pretty filling. I had problem finishing half of it because I was sick, not really in the mood of eating, not very good in assessing the taste too. The chicken fillet in there tasted quite nice though. Hahaha…


Left: Chicken Choppachop with potato salad(RM9). The sauce that came with it is quite spicy but I didn’t really taste the spiciness because again… I’m sick!
Right: I was here! Hehehe… 😛

They will have new menu after CNY as in new menu(as there are spelling errors in the current one, you can find “lamp” in it hahaha…) and new food. They started their operation on 25th December 2007.

It’s a nice place to hang out with friends I would say. WiFi might be available after CNY also. However you can get it now by stealing it from somewhere nearby *LOL* The signal is pretty low though 😛

I Dreamt About The Future! OMG!!!

Posted on By sweet surrender 12 Comments on I Dreamt About The Future! OMG!!!

OMG! This is really really scary! It’s so real! 100% accurate! OH MY! What happened? Ok… Let me tell you…

This morning, I woke up around 7am+ to go to the toilet. Then I went back to sleep. Yes! Went back to sleep, I work from home, I work anytime I like, I’m also an almost-fulltime-blogger. I don’t wake up until after 9.30am. Then I dreamt…

I dreamt of a friend who didn’t contact me for almost a month, his MSN popup with a caption(not telling you what it was), you know where we could have customised message below our nickname? So… After his MSN popup, I woke up.

Before the above dream, I got a dream that I was in my Hotmail account deleting some mails and there’s a forwarded mail from Jimmy. I deleted the rest of the mails and left his mail untouched. (It felt like it happened yesterday. It felt like you are recalling something that you had done before instead of dreaming.)

Those are the dreams.

Then this morning, few hours after my dream, my friend called me up and after the call we had a short MSN session. Guess what??!?! The exact same caption on his MSN! We were on MSN summore!

After I had the MSN session, I quickly checked my mailbox. I couldn’t find the mail that Jimmy had sent to me. I thought I accidentally deleted it along with the useless e-mails, so I checked the trash folder and nothing in there. I asked Jimmy whether he did send me an e-mail yesterday or not, he said that he didn’t. So I was like, “AIKSSS… I thought I saw it yesterday… Hmm… AIKSS… It’s my dream!”. It felt like it really happened in real life, it happened yesterday. It’s not a dream but it’s a dream.

At about between 6-7pm+, I got Jimmy’s forwarded mail with the same subject among all the other mails that I deleted in my dream! Of course, I deleted those useless mails and left his forwarded mail in my inbox.

What do you think? -.-” Scary or not?!?!?! My goodness… I’m still feeling a bit shock with all that happened today, though nothing serious, the point is I dreamt about things that would happen! It really happened exactly as I dreamt! That’s so… SCARY!

2008 Spring Charity Fashion Show

Posted on By sweet surrender 7 Comments on 2008 Spring Charity Fashion Show

Sorry about the looooong down time of the server yesterday. I didn’t manage to update my blog yesterday because of that and I got many complains and enquiries from bloggers about their blogs and also corporate clients about their websites being down. -.-” You can imagine how many phone calls, SMS, MSN and e-mail we got yesterday. Sigh… I know you guys were worried, we were too. We had to worry about your blogs, our own blogs and our corporate clients’ websites. Good thing it’s back now and hopefully this upgrade that took more than 6 hours will mean less down time in the future.

WOW… I’m so touch that there’s even people asking why I didn’t update my blog hehehe… Just one day no update 😛 But I had updated yesterday posts today.

This has nothing to do with The Spring. Many people thought it’s related. Oh please… Something with the word “spring” doesn’t mean that it’s related to The Spring ok?!?! *shake head*


Went to 2008 Spring Charity Fashion Show at Civic Centre on the 24th January 2008. Bought the tickets way back before I went to KL.


Left: If you don’t have time to have your dinner, you can buy a set of tart and tinned drink for RM5/set. Portion of the money would be given to SCCS.
Right: The MCs, Robert Chung(organising chairperson) and YB Datuk Yong Khoon Seng.

Let’s not waste any more time. I’ll show you the fashion show. Not all the outfits are here as many of them are blurred.

These are not professional models. Some of them walked pretty funnily hahaha…


Most left: Chua Hua Beng serenate you with some songs.
Right: The male models.


Left: There’s also lucky draw but we didn’t win anything.
Right: Dance from Tyng Studio. You can view the video here.


The clothings were from Tyng Fashion, Red Pepper Fashion, Private Design, Mix Boutique, that’s all I can remember 😛


More fashion.


Most left: Kenny Sia giving speech. I’m sorry but I didn’t really pay attention to what he had said that night, all I know is that it’s so… Don’t know how to say.
Right: The evening gowns.


More evening gowns and evening wear for the males.


Most left: The last piece of male evening wear.
Middle: Dance by students of Chung Hua Primary School No.6, view video here.
Right: Ms. Fara singing some songs.


These are from France & Taipei.


More wedding gowns from France & Taipei. The picture on the right is just random picture that I took. I quite like this gown but I don’t have such big boobs for it *LOL* I wonder how much padding I would need in that!


These are from Genesis.


More gowns from Genesis. The most right photo is also another random photo that I took.


The end…

Was so hungry after the show because it’s started during dinner time and the tart won’t be enough to fill your stomach. I had a quick dinner at home that day. Many working adults had problem attending the show because it’s in a rush, there’s no time for them to have dinner before going, most also had to rush there right after work. Many left early. If there isn’t dinner served, they should start it later instead of during dinner time. This is something you have to take note of when you organising an event like this.

Anyway, it’s not an easy task to get this show running. It did go well eventually 🙂

We had it at Pizza Hut Jalan Song. These are our pizzas.

Spaghetties.


The birthday cakes. Left from Secret Recipe and right one, don’t know from where. The right cake was smashed on his face and messed the floor of Pizza Hut. Oh dear… We were so noisy also. We overshoot the time slot also. For party, we could only have it for 2 hours hahaha…

After the party, we went to Tao. Called it a night at about 11pm+
