Ramadhan @ Putrajaya International Convention Centre

Another iftar session with friends...

Makan jangan tak makan....hehehe...

First got notified by this was when aziz tagged me to the flyers pic in his fesbuk...and its RM50...with more than 200 dishes...all malaysian food (so no french dessert nor pasta hokey)...then i just asked jimmy whether he wanted to join along...jimmy said okay...and he bring along his housemate...

Sate counter...

View from the dining area...

Grilled counter...

Made a booking and seriously the dining area was full...one thing i love about PICC is the fact that it boast a spectacular view of Putrajaya itself...so in term of the atmosphere...i have to give A++ with very spacious and conducive praying area....

Sebelum...

As for selection of foods....i will have to say that it was worth RM50...for those who really enjoy malay traditional food would truly enjoy this particular spread...it is rather a typical malay buffet spread...but the presentation was good...and i was only eyeing for the grilled counters...grill beef...sate...grill lamb...chicken...fish...

Muka jimmy yang excited nak makan itu...

As for dessert...there were 5 types of porridges...countless malay kuih (still i am wondering why they always refer it to nyonya kuih?)...and local fruits...and also those tit bits...in big jar...aku terusss ngap ajer...sambil jalan sambil cari lagi aper benda yang aku boleh kunyah...

Cepat la nak buka posa nieh...

Overall kitorang melepak la kat situ sampai kul 9.45 p.m...for one thing...sebab dessert dia tak menarik minat aku sangat...kalau tak boleh ajer aku layan dok kat situ sampai kena halau...hahahaha...i paid RM50 for the buffet...and i think i get the worth of RM50...next up is...Palm Resort Sepang...hehehe...

Itu ari buat mee goreng...nak senang lagi...terus buat italian...

Believe it or not...western cooking is much more easier than local...serious tak tipu...and i dont want to argue about it lah...anyway...rumah aku ada spaghetti...then ada prego...so blasah buat spaghetti...aku rasa semua orang tau camna nak masak spaghetti...serious sangat senang okay...you dont have to be some jamie oliver to do it...

Mudah ajer...memula...boil the spaghetti...ala...cam boil biasa ajer ler...then toskan...actually i am not sure whats the meaning of tos...tapi aku dok baca kat dalam buku resipi ayat ni...aku blasah ajer...

As for the gravy...tumis la bawang putih dengan olive oil...dengan blackpepper (aku memang sangat suka blekpeper okey)...pastu to make up for the lack of beef (again)...hiris la lagi sosej sosej itu...goreng la sosej tadi dengan bawang putih...then agak agak cam dah okay tu...tuang ler 1/2 botol (1/2 lagi boleh buat lenkali) prego itu...masuk la skali thymes...dengan oregano skit...kacau kacau kacau kacau....pastu dulu aku pernah gi kat rumah k.lida...makan spaghetti dia...dia kata dia campur sekeping cheese dalam dia punya kuah tu nak bagi pekat...so aku pon amik la sekeping cheese yang makan bersama roti tu aku blasah masuk ke dalam kuah tu...biaq dalam kuah tu sampai cair cheese tu...dan being me yang suka makan pedas...aku campur skali dengan cili yang dah blend skit...hehehe...then biaq atas api beberapa lama skit...agak agak cam dah masak tu...angkut terusss....masuk ke dalam spaghetti tadi tu....

Perghhhh...bau memang menusuk kalbu...di keheningan pagi buta tu tetiba ajer bau camtu...segar terusss mata siot...pastu apa lagi...aummmmm....burppp...alhamdulillah...boleh la alas perut untuk puasa....dah siap makan tu...apa lagi...ati manyak senang...tunggu la subuh menjelma....tengok la re-run citer nurkasih kat tv3...hehehe...

Ramadhan @ Steamboat Antarabangsa

Mana mai antarabangsa tu pun aku tak tau...

Cher dengan Ha di depan Steamboat Antarabangsa di sebelah wong solo yang pergi tahun lepas itu...

My friends and i are setting up an iftar session among us...and we were trying to think of somewhere for iftar...as the year before we went to Wong Solo (which was seriously over-rated...but still most of my friends said that its good)...this time around...Zetty and i already voted against Wong Solo...Arip became the champion as he proposed to have steamboat buffet in the restaurant next to Wong Solo instead...hehehe...cool...RM22 per person...eat all you can buffet lah...and the best of all...it also come with grill pan...compared to Red Wok RM28...so we gave it a shot...

Semua pakai taram ajer...hahaha...

Arip came and picked me up from the office...then we went to pick up cher and ha after that...managed to catch up with zetty en route to bangi...then while waiting...here comes the rest...amir and his friend...and zul azri...then leen...and last but not least...zaimee and tina with the new born baby...naimi...there were only 3 groups and 1 couple while we were there (as opposed to the full house when i went there yesterday with jaja and iliani)...

Cher dengan leen mencuba bakat menggrill itu...

The selection was okay...red wok had more selection...but this particular joint already covered the basic steamboat...there's prawn...crab...fish...squid...and various of fisballs fiscakes and whatever...so i am happy enough...on top of that they have the chocolate fountain with marshmallow...ice creams...jeruksss...drinks including self-service hot drinks (which i add in chocolate ice cream on top of hot coffee...mocha...hehehe)....the was a partition at the side of the restaurant reserved as the praying area...quite small...but enough for 2 people at a time...

Cik Zet yang comot sila upload gambar dari camera anda dengan pantas hokey...

We chatted and we grilled and we ate...and we had fun...macam main masak masak plak rasanya...since zetty bring her BIG camera...aku maleh ler nak tangkap gambar guna camera aku...but i have to wait for zetty to upload the pics from her camera lah....

Wajah-wajah gumbira arep dengan cher...

Another successful iftar session with my dear close buddies...as for next entry...with different people and different location...but the most important part...kenyang perut suka ati...hehehe...

Sahur Ala Orang Bujang

Aku akan masak untuk sahur...kalau aku rajin...

Unlike many of my friends whom are married and have a wife to cook for them...i have to cook for myself lah...but since i love eating...and my cooking is not going to set me up as the next jamie oliver...tapi kira okay la kalau nak sendirian berhad makan (dengan housemate aku skali lah)...

Usually i would just fry something...something that is simple...easy to cook...and doesn't have me to be a chef wan to come up with something like that...as for yesterday morning...i fried some mee...kinda taste okay...not willing to serve other people that is...afraid that they might throw up if they have a taste of my cooking...hahaha...

Its very simple...potong la sedikit carrot...then ada la tomato dengan daun aper ntah aku beli kat pasar tu(untuk hiasan)....memula tu tumis la bawang putih dengan bawang merah sampai naik bau...hurmmm...then being me...i love the taste of blackpepper...so blasah masuk skali black pepper...then add in cili boh...tumis lagi sampai naik bau (lagi)...then add in a lil bit of oyster sauce and soy sauce...masuk skit garam...then to compensate for the lack of beef or chicken...i sliced up some sausages and fishcakes...panas sampai la dia ala ala cam pecah minyak gitu...baru la masuk mee...1/2 peket...cukup arrr....sekali dengan sliced carrots...then gaul punya gaul punya gaul...sampai dia semua dah bercampur gaul...pecah la telur sebiji...gaul lagi gaul lagi...sampai semua rata...then agak agak dah masak tu...blasah ajer letak dalam pinggan...pastu nak bagi menarik skit letak la hirisan tomato dengan daun apa ntah tadi...aummmm....

Burrrpppp...alhamdulillah...kenyang la gak...boleh la tahan untuk puasa...hehehe...aiii...inilah nasib orang bujang...makan sendiri kena pandai sendiri...kalau aku tak rajin...terpaksa la meredah keheningan pukul 4:30 a.m gi ke kedai mamak...kalau rajin...masak la sendiri...sekarang aku dok pikiaq...apa la lagi benda yang mudah orang bujang boleh buat untuk sahur...mebi aku masak sardin dengan telur ajer le kot pagi nie...and of course...aku sekarang dah blasah makan beras perang ajer...hehehee....ini la sahur ala orang bujang...at least thats for me... :p

K.Jue spread out the words about us going for iftar together...

The sweet couple drove all the way from melaka...

We decided to go to konkod inn klia...as for my suggestion...and was picked up by k.jue...it turn out great...the buffet spread was lovely...for the price of RM49++ per person...it was really worth it...more worth it than corus (the one that i went to with jaja on saturday)...for one thing...the location is pretty convenient....near to klia...no traffic jam...free parking...spacious praying area...and the most important part was the buffet spread...it was hugeeee...

Hajjah and I with the unforgettable ex-boss with her husband...

Happy eating...

On one side there was roasted beef with satay and ayam golek...on another side there was selection of drinks to choose from...air tebu la...soya la...cincau la...macam macam lagi...then they have the pasta counter...which you can choose the selection of fetuccini...macaroni...or spaghetti...with your choice of gravy either you want bolognese or carbonara...and they prepare it on spot for you...the main buffet area there was crab...squids...chickens...beefs...soups...and more malaysian dish...mee jawa...laksa...then they have some japanese dish...and it does not end there just yet...on another counter there were 8 big periuk with 8 different local malay dish...siput sedut...prawns...beef...just to name a few from the eight...then they have the mini steamboat...and also popiah basah...and also char koay teow...and ice kacang...off to the dessert counter...there was several selection of chocolate cakes...seriously...and cakes and pastry and local kuih and bread pudding and fruits...and last but not least...the ice creams...owh yeah...they even have the sup tulang...denggg...

Yummilicious...

We ate and we chatted...its been a while since all of us group together...missing from this supposed to be gathering is k.ida and husband and also zaza and husband...it would be even merrier if they come...but something came up so they couldn't make it...

Dessert yo...

8 periuk...

But thru it all...we all just go on and off to the buffet counter to refill anything that the heart (more like the stomach's) desire...and it was a good thing that adi was around...he could easily beat me to the eating contest...but he still maintain slim...jeles siott...hahaha...

Done...until next time yeah...

I already put it in my list for another iftar session in konkod klia....with my lil bro and lil sis...along with jaja...next month...for me it was really worth it...better than the saturday's...hehehe...as for now...recently my friend tagged me to a flyers in fesbuk...picc is also having their own version of ramadhan buffet...RM50nett...hurmmm...thats going to be interesting...as at the same time they are also having up to 80% metrojaya sale in one of the hall in picc...ni la orang cakap sambil menyelam minum air....hehehe...aku memang sesungguhnya suka 'multi tasking' ini....hahahaha....apa lagi jaja....jommmmssss...
