The Warehouse Sale of the Year!

(This is a non-paid advertisement)



Ok ok ... I exaggerated. Being a happy and faithful user of Southern Lion range of products, when you hear them say "WAREHOUSE SALE", they really mean it. Great bargains for only once a year.



In case you were asking for a price list, you can download your ORDER FORM here. So say goodbye to not having enough toothpaste, detergent and liquid shower. Cheers!

Yeah! On leave on 22/11/07

The happy thoughts about not going to work for a day does not seem to last long. I always wished that I could have an uninterrupted day to myself .... no phone calls, no office emails, no errants to run and all I do is laze around the house the whole day glueing myself to the endless variety of channels on Astro.

But...I already have a list of things to do.



Like all men, I give my car a lot of attention. I am never late for a scheduled service (this time I am). My appointment tomorrow is at 8.15am. I have to be kiasu because everytime I service my car, it would take about half-a-day (hope to get it done by 12 noon) and if you are #32, your car will be ready by 6pm.



I will be going to collect the Jolin Tsai concert tickets (which is way overdue).



I would have to make a trip to LVMH at Central Plaza to get my watch fixed. As you can see, my watch stopped on 19th Nov 2007 at 8.45am. I love this watch, my only watch.

At this moment, I am researching on how to create a forum for the condo that I am staying now. Why? Tell you later. Let me go figure out how rocket science is it to create a forum.

Mizu Japanese Fine Dining - TTDI Plaza



I had lunch at Mizu today. It was my first visit here.



The restaurant was nicely decorated. This is the picture of the entrance.



While I ordered my set lunch, "starters" were served. It is a dish with a combination of boiled eggs, mashed potatos and some "greens".



The set lunch I ordered comes with Chawanmushi. As usual, I ate everything then thought of taking photos. Everyone knows about this Japanese Steamed Egg Custard. It was soft and smooth unlike those that I have eaten before.



Next came Eihire. It is a salty deep-fried stingray served with some kind of sweet mayonnaise. Yummy! Not many Japanese restaurants actually serves this.



Then came the Assorted Sashimi Set. The slices of the fish were generously big.






I was recommended to try Fois Gras Daikon.



I preferred the one served at Cafe-Cafe.



Within the set lunch was a fruit desert (topped with sago). Yummy!





Overall: It was a nice place to have a quiet lunch but suprisingly it was kinda empty during lunch time.





Here is the direction to Mizu.

I still can ...

...cook of course. Got home early today and was not too keen of eating out, so I whipped out the food I bought from the Air Panas market last Sunday.



So I managed to cook up 5 dishes + 1 soup, for 2 pax.



The soup picture is missing. Drank most of it before I could take a photo.



(1) Fried cabbage with dried prawns and garlic. (Must have "greens").



(2) Steamed Ikan Bawal Putih (topped with red/green chili padi, garlic, onions and ginger)



(3) Ketchup prawns with garlic and onions



(4) Steamed egg roll with fish paste



(5) Fried prawns (simple yet delicious!)



Da dinner .......



Now, don't mess with the chef.

Save money and the environment

I was in need of ink for my printer and if you did not know, printer cartridges are not cheap. For my Canon's, it ranges from RM 55 - RM 70 for black and coloured "liquid".



So i decided to go "green". Refill and not discart my old cartridges. Cartridge World is located in SS2. Refills are close to half the price of buying a new one.

They will refill and test your cartridges and show you the printout. I was a happy customer who walked away paying a bill of RM 170 (4 cartridge refills) vs RM 280 (if I were to buy new ones).

So I kinda saved my money and the environment. How about that?
