Kuching Festival 2022 Live Cooking

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Kuching Festival 2022 Live Cooking

Went to Kuching Festival 2022 many times, yet didn’t get the chance to take a video of it. We’re always there for a short time just to get some takeaways for dinner and left. Also, by the time we’re there, it’s already packed. It’s so hard to take proper video or even to move around.

This video is a compilation of some live cooking that I managed to capture last week. It rained midway. Otherwise, there would be more. When the rain stopped, we were rushing to get our dinner and left as it was getting late and the crowd was pouring in.

How many times have you joined in the fun at the festival? I think I should be going there again one more time one of these days. Do check out my latest post of the festival on my Instagram if I did go again.

After Kuching Festival, the Mid-autumn Festival will take place at the Carpenter Street. It’s another round of gastronomy fun. We’ll see what I will be able to get there by then.

Kuching Festival 2022

Posted on By sweet surrender 1 Comment on Kuching Festival 2022

Have you visited Kuching Festival at MBKS? After not having it for two years, it’s back this year. More stalls and more food. It started on 29 July 2022 and will end on 21 August 2022. I’ve been there 4 times. How about you?

Here’s the compilation of my visit. I foresee that I will be going there again for few more times because it’s pretty near to my place. I have everything updated on my Instagram. It is much more updated there than in this blog ;p

So far, what’s the best food had you tried? To me, I feel that the food from Pinoy’s stalls is quite OK. Quality is better compared to many other stalls. So far, most are so-so. Edible but don’t expect it to be super delicious. Plenty of “landmines” as well. You’ll just have to try them for yourself to know what’s good and what’s not. It’s pretty much based on personal preferences too.

The food there is not cheap. However, just buying what you can eat will do. We could easily fill our tummy for less than RM50. Plenty of food below RM10 that can be filling. If you are there to try all the fancy food and eat more than you can handle, then that’s another story.

It’s already packed as early as 4.30pm during the weekend. As for weekdays, the crowd fills up the place by 5pm. So do go early if you want to avoid the crowd and for nearer parking.

A Visit to Borneo Cultures Museum

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on A Visit to Borneo Cultures Museum

Ok… Here’s a quick update on the new site. I’m currently still in the process of getting the framework ready before I port everything over. At least the domain name has been pointed and every link seems to be working well. Once I’ve finalized the design and gathered all the needed information to port over, I will start moving. Stay tuned!

For now, I will be updating here once in a blue moon while I still can. I’m quite occupied with many things, that’s why the moving is a bit slow. Hopefully, the next update will be on the new site 😉

Anyway, have you visited the Borneo Cultures Museum? Malaysia’s biggest museum and the second largest in SEA. I visited it twice. Once in April, once in May. Unfortunately, the wear and tear of the new museum are quite obvious even though the visit is only one month apart. Imagine once it is fully opened, the maintenance of it is gonna be one hell of a time for the management.

Here are the videos I took when I was there in April. Have you visited the place? What do you think? My comments are all in the video. Enjoy!

Driving around Kuching with H5 One Axis Handheld Gimbal

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Driving around Kuching with H5 One Axis Handheld Gimbal

It’s been a long time… CNY is finally over. I’m still trying to get some work done. Too many things going on at the same time. I’m behind schedule too. Anyway, in this post, I’m going to show you the videos I took last year, 31st Dec 2021. Went to the city centre to run some errands and I took my gimbal with me to test it out. Here you go… I wasn’t the one driving. I was the passenger.

If you are curious about the gimbal, here’s the video for it. The name is H5 One Axis Handheld Gimbal (https://invol.co/cl83tyg). Bought from Shopee during 1212 sale. Can’t expect too much with something less than RM100 ;p It’s not designed for what I did anyway. However, should be good enough for basic use.

#CucukMyAZ at Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (HCO B), 8/6/2021, 8.30am, What to Expect?

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on #CucukMyAZ at Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (HCO B), 8/6/2021, 8.30am, What to Expect?

As you know #CucukMyAZ started in Kuching on 7th June 2021 and will be going on until July (if I recall correctly). Mine will be in few days time. Here’s the video that you might want to watch to see what and how it’s done.

*Pause the video if you want to read the details.

This experience was recorded at Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (HCO B, blue zone) dated 8/6/2021. The appointment time was 9am, first morning batch. We check-in at 8.30am, number called at 9pm, check-out at 9.30am.

As there might be different team/organization in charge of each hall on each day, the experience might be different depending very much on the crowd situation. However, I believe the steps are similar.

It took 1 hour to complete everything. They even called my parents to confirm their attendance before appointment time. However, if your time assigned is in the morning, they will call you the day before.

There were more people in the morning, slightly longer wait but all in all it took us 1 hour. While in the afternoon, less people, no long waiting time but it was also done in 1 hour because of longer observation time. Since each hall was managed by different team/organisation, they had slight variation of management style but it didn’t affect their professionalism. Good job!

I wanted to film the experience for HCO A too but everything happened too fast that there wasn’t even chance to record properly. The experience was slightly different but in general the process was the same.

By the way, please only go when it’s your appointment time, do not go early to avoid unwanted crowding and issues. If everyone follows the assigned time, there will not be unhappy incidents like what we’ve been hearing. So please… Be responsible to yourself and others.
