Library @ ST3

Posted on By sweet surrender 6 Comments on Library @ ST3

Library is finally in Kuching! I know I’m late in posting this hahaha…

Long long time ago… Now only post about it hahaha… It’s one of the happening places at night in Kuching. Located at ST3, went there once and won’t go back, just not my kind of place to hang out. Music is too loud for me.


Kids nowadays will tell their parents they are going to the library and who knows they ended up in this library instead of the usual library *LOL*


In the Library, you’ll find encyclopedia of course.


Left: Some of the drinks we ordered. I don’t remember the price anymore. It’s quite expensive, lots of alcoholic drinks to choose but not non-alcoholic ones.

Right: Nachos, not bad. Don’t remember any of the food price anymore. Too long ago.


We also ordered lamb shank and pizza. Pizza is just so-so, lamb shank wasn’t too bad.

Overall that night we spent about a total of about RM800 for 7 pax! MY GOSH! We never spend this much when we hang out. This is one record for us for sure. Hahaha… Actually, there were lots of alcoholic drinks that’s why. Stout, beer, and cider, ordered non-stop. I didn’t drink a single bit of them though.

Yesterday, at CityOne, attended a function organized by Zalora. I’ve not been to CityOne for ages until now. Just found out Zalora Pop-Up store is now in Kuching. However, it won’t be there for long, only from 16th to 30th September.

Japanese Food Overloaded

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Japanese Food Overloaded

If you notice, I’ve been eating Japanese food quite a fair bit this year. The first I had ever since I came back was Minoru. Last time it was only Ten-ichi (monthly for food tasting) and random Sushi King.

Lately, it seems like Japanese cuisine is getting its foot into Kuching. Many establishments are mushrooming in Kuching. Even the franchise of Ajisen Ramen is now in Bouleavard but I haven’t get the chance to try the place yet, what’s more never tried it in Adelaide too even though I just lived a street away from Ajisen Ramen outlet.

This is the collection of Japanese eateries I’ve been to in the past 3 months.

Sanga Japanese Food (Lot 164, Jalan Chan Chin Ann, 93100, Kuching, Sarawak, 93100). It’s not new, it’s been a long time already but this is my first time coming here.


Left: Love Salmon Maki (RM15), not bad for the price. I hope the salmon was thicker but then of course this will mean more expensive. Nevertheless, it’s nice.

Right: Unagi Pizza (RM28), very tasty too. Not a bad place to have Japanese food. Price wise is reasonable too. These food can feed 3 average eaters but there were only two of us. We underestimated the maki hehehe…

Next, Rising Ramen took Kuching by storm. After listening so much about it, I went to try also. It’s located at Precint 88, Jalan Song, 93350, Kuching. Not far from Watsons. Went there twice.

The menu is very limited, it’s not a bad thing, means they specialized in what they’re doing. Their signature dish is their ramen (RM10) of course. Ordered their gyoza and Rising Roll. I don’t remember the prices for both.

I’m not expert in ramen, the broth is rather salty for me but the ramen was cooked just right. While the gyoza and Rising Roll is just normal for me. On the other note, the owner is handsome!! 😛 The place is always packed! Had to queue.


Lastly, Sando Ramen at ST3. Another ramen place in Kuching.


We ordered Original Miso Tonkotsu (RM17.90). Again, not really an expert in ramen and not quite a fan actually because the broth is generally too salty for my liking. However, the noodle was also nicely cooked.

There you go… The Japanese food trend which is invading Kuching these days. There’s more but I haven’t get the chance or the mood to try everyone of them out.

Langkawi (11 – 14 May 2014) – Part 6

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Langkawi (11 – 14 May 2014) – Part 6

After Makam Mahsuri, we headed to Burn Rice at Padang Matsirat.

You will first go through lots of shops selling tidbits and souvenirs. Then you will reach the field where it was burnt. No admission fee at all.

I’m expecting black field but oppsss… It’s green! *LOL* That’s because it was burnt long time ago way back in 1800’s, of course it’s green now. Was expecting nothing can be grown there and it’s just a field of black soil. I’m so silly! Learn more here…

The day was extremely hot! Our next destination was the Seven Wells Waterfall.


Goodness! It was so hot! When we found out we had to go up the staircase to reach it, we’re a bit reluctant but still went up at the end. No stamina really… We asked everyone who came down how far more to go but they all told us we’re almost there before we even reached the sign saying we had 367 steps to go! Man… Felt like old lady. Finally when we’re up, we’re greeted with this! Felt cheated *LOL* The waterfall WAs further up but we couldn’t do it anymore, way too hot. So we just stopped here to rest. The guys went to play with the water. It’s just too hot to play even though the water was quite cold. I even had my bikini on already but no mood to play anymore with such hot sun.

Why seven wells? There are seven natural pools formed at different levels by water stream that flows down the second highest mountain of Langkawi, Mount Mat Cincang.

Going down is another misery -.-”

After that, we went to a beach. It was a scenic drive to Tanjung Rhu.


Too hot again! Quickly took some shoots and we hid under the shade. Too much sun, it’s blinding too!

It was quite late already and we had our late lunch at Restoran Seafood Anis which is located next to Tanjung Rhu Resort.



I don’t remember what we ordered, too long ago. No idea of the price too. The food was just so-so for me hence I don’t bother remembering.

It was a tiring day! We headed back to town to continue to shop and to freshen up before heading out to for late dinner on our final night here.

Of all the food places we went in Langkawi, this is my favourite place, Saloma Nasi Lemak Panas & Daun Pisang located at Eagle Square.



Basically you get to choose the curry or rendang dish to go with your nasi lemak and all served on banana leaf. We had cuttle fish and beef rendang. We also ordered a plate of roasted chicken. Meat was tender. It was satisfying and delicious! The price was reasonable too. If only we discovered this place earlier. The best meal we had. Also our last dinner in Langkawi.

Before we headed to the airport in the morning, we went for breakfast at the stalls opposite HIG Hotel Langkawi.

Ordered small plate of fried chicken. Don’t remember the taste ;p


Left: Arab bread with squid curry, lovely! Very nice!
Right: Murtabak with squid curry too. Really like the curry a lot.

No idea how much was the whole dish but it’s quite cheap, cheaper than Kuching for sure.

After breakfast, to the airport we went. Goodbye Langkawi!

Finally I’m done posting this trip. Took me 4 months for a 4 days 3 nights trip. *GULP* What will happen with my 6 days 5 nights trip in November? How long will it take for me to finish it?

The Grand Unveiling

Posted on By sweet surrender 4 Comments on The Grand Unveiling

The Veil Wedding Gallery, finally reopens after going through a facelift.

It’s an honoured to be invited to attend the grand unveiling yesterday.


All the imported dresses. I touched and felt them… Very good quality! You know one when you hold them. This is the kind of quality you should be wearing for your big day. Too bad those on displayed were very big in size. No size for me, even if it’s altered, it’s still too long and too big for a petite frame. Not 1-2 inches alteration for sure, it’s more than that and it can be problem. Can only go for custom made. Problem with petite girls. Oh well…



Men aren’t left out. Also, pretty dresses must go with pretty accessories. Shoes, necklace, earrings… All these shoes are from White Label, founded in 2008 by Malaysian designer, Hazel Lui.

Of course! Photos with the famous people… How to resist? I felt like an elf! They’re all so tall -.-”

Left: Benjamin Toong, the catwalk guru.

Right: The lovely and talented, Sarah Lian.


Left: Swing Chan, very cute fashion stylist. She’s the only one as petite as I am hehehe…

Right: Winne Then, the gorgeous owner of the Veil.


Left: Guess who was there too! Toh Puan Sri Ragad! Wanted to take a photo with her but no guts to ask hehehe… Managed to shake her hand though. She was the one extended her hand. This is my third time seeing her in person and the first time coming so close to her and shook her hand. Friends did selfie with her in other events. It’s not easy to get this opportunity.

Right: Amber Chia! Need to say more? She’s very humble. Learnt how to pose in photograph from her. Hopefully I still remember the tips she gave, the smile and the pose. Should have written them down. Very useful tips.

Today is open to public with invites. Yesterday was only for the media and VVIPs.

Here’s the highlight of the day, fashion show! It’s been a long time not shooting fashion show. Skill is very much rusty. Lots of editing was done on all the photos. Enjoy the photos.








Love the back. It seems like the trend these days is showing the back design. Not much of skin showing at the back, it’s semi-transparent and with intricate designs. Great for those who have problematic skin at the back just like me.


You know where to go now for your big day?

The Veil Wedding Gallery is located at 8, Jalan Tan Sri Ong Kee Hui, 93300 Kuching. Opened from Tuesdays to Saturdays, 10am-6pm; Sundays from 10.30am to 2.30pm. Call 082-256828 for more details.
