Cruising Mines

It's nothing new but after years cloistered under books and study, I finally get to enjoy the cruise offered by The Mines shopping mall. It was a short trip from The Mines to the Palace of The Golden Horses where I was attending a conference, but quite enjoyable.

The water gate exit. At the start of the ride, the boat will be shut in between 2 water gates to level the water, as The Mines is on a higher ground than the lake.

I dunno what this is but the blue dome looks grand.

The Mines Resort.

I was focusing on the birds.

Of course there are more cruising options offered like the Dining Cruise and all, but till next time.

More info on the cruises can be found here.

Long time no see...

Haih.. with life's up and down I've been neglecting this blog for such a long, long time... My apology...

To think that at a crucial time near my exam only did I pick up my laptop and start typing away.. Such irony =)

No, I have not stop blogging, just busy with life as an upgrade from medical student life. Sadly, this upgraded life accompanied with cash somehow did not help me in procuring more interesting places to dine at. However, I managed to slip out now and then for a squeeze of fun.

So here then...

A drive through Puchong one evening ...

Who would expect to find such sunset in the middle of Puchong ... 

 

Estapada surprise

One pleasant day I decided to have lunch at Nando's and got the shock of my life when the food arrive...

I certainly did not expect my chicken to be hanging from a hot metal rod... Not that I never had chicken Estapada before but usually as take - aways.

Thai Express = Thai fastfood

A day of hardwork, no one to cook for me at home and a craving for rice (After 1 week avoiding due to my expanding waistline... ). So a drive to The Curve, Mutiara Damansara...

Simple Thai food, not authentic enough but as mentioned above, I feel like this place is more of a fast food version. Contemporary setting, modern music, Thai - looking waiters.

I had sweet and sour fish with white rice, which was nice accompanied with my favourite vege, brinjal cooked in tom yum paste (not spicy).
