Belluno, Brunei

Thanks to God sis and her mum for bringing me to Belluno and treating me to lunch.

Chamomile tea. I like the look of the teapot.

Salted caramel shake it~

Fancy a cup of coffee?

Apple crumble that have been attacked before I remembered to snap a picture. Hehee....but this is good, I really like the crumbly texture of the crust and the apple.

Caesar Salad

I don't think any appetizer can get better than this......Fried mozzarella! <3

New York Bagel~

I like this too because it has all of the things that I like in a single dish~!!!

Lolly's chicken waffle~!!!

First time trying fried chicken with waffles and I enjoyed it.....omg, waffles drenched in syrup, together with the crispy chicken skin......SOO GOOD!!!! 

First time trying mochi wrapped ice-cream~ 

Tried to selfies with the 2 cute little babies....but failed badly as babies don't seem too interested in the camera! hahaha.....

Sooo cute~ can't get enough of their chubby cheeks~

Food hunt in Brunei

Before arriving at Brunei, I've already mentioned to Lina that I wanted to have these 2 food below And she is so nice! Why? Because she came all the way to my hotel and brought me to get them!!! :D

First off was, Lo San flat nasi lemak. Well of course, there are other nasi lemak that are better than this but it's a taste that I've missed!

Then the next morning, she brought me to Chop Jing Chew for breakfast with her mum where we had their kaya butter toasts. 

Look at the amount of butter!!!

And my fav. peanut bun when I was young!!! hehehe.....I'm a happy girl now!

Times Hotel Brunei

In January, I had another work trip to Brunei and this time we stayed at Times Hotel Brunei.

Here's the Queen bed

Room slippers and laundry bags were also provided

There's a dressing table with hair dryer

Coffee table where we had our meals

Complimentary mineral water

The toilet

Shower

Overall, the stay at the hotel was comfortable except for the fact that even with all the lights switched on, the room still seemed kinda dark. Room service was good. I like how they provided room service for lunch.

Brunei work trip

Right after my Sg work trip, we flew into Miri and traveled by car to Brunei.....

Look who I spotted at the local mall! hahaa.....looks like someone's lost some weight!!!

We stayed at Badi'ah Hotel which was kinda disappointing.

The toilet was not that clean as there were stains here and there!!!

But the room is definitely big.

While I still slept well, it would be better if the room was cleaned better. Also, their pillow was kinda soft and lumpy.

Meanwhile, I missed this snack so much~

Supper happy that I got to meet up with Lina and Liz~

They came all the way to my hotel to grab a meal with me at Delifrance.

Our supper~!!! 

Thank you Lina for treating us~!!!

Another view that I miss~ it seems that nothing has changed much in the last 10 years from this view.....

I'm really glad to have to opportunity to revisit Brunei again~ It will always be a country that holds a special place in my heart!

Master Chef Pancy

Pancy left for Aus today to continue her studies.

All the best to you girl~

When I visited Brunei in Jan, she cooked up some fabulous dishes for a few of us.

Yummylicious salted egg prawns. My favourite~!!!

Steamed fish.

Even chong who is not such a great fan of fishes enjoyed this dish!

Some vegetables....

...and bittergourd!! ew..... didn't touch this at all, hahaha...

and... I left out the star of the day, which is the CRAB!!

because I was too busy eating at that time....

heehe....

Thanks dear for cooking all these lovely dishes for us. Truly enjoyed it, esp the prawns!

May you have a great start to a new live in melbourne!

All the best with your studies!

Postcard!!!

THANK YOU CHONG FOR THE VERY NICE POSTCARD OF BSB!!!

Ahhh...!!!! Sooo happy when I received the postcard. I spent like 5 minutes looking at the picture trying to look for Moon's old apartment!!! And I think I spotted it but I'm not too sure which.....eee......I've forgotten the city plan!!!

Ahh....soo many memories from the postcard!!! I actually cried! I missed those times sooo much! I miss you guys soo much! *sniff* and I want to visit too! But this year end seems quite impossible....maybe next year after I graduate.

Chong's card!!!

I've passed by this mosque soo many times!! Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque!! We've even studied about it in history!! And it's like supposed to be the tallest building in BSB and you can see it from anywhere. But I've never entered it! Plus that boat too!!!! How I wish I could've taken a picture with this mosque as a background now.

Plus after sooo many years in Brunei and passing by there every week....I never that it's perimeter is actuall that round. I know la, when you go to Yayasan, you'll surely drive past it....but I guess I wasn't that observant.

The mosque is actually very beautiful.

credits pics from : wiki

Actually the Jame'Asr Hassanil Bolkiah Mosque is also very beautiful. I stay so near it somemore! Every morning also pass by it! A chemistry teacher once said, "Please study hard, I don't want to see any one of you on the dome trying to scrap off pieces of gold." haaha...That was in MD, very near to the Jame'Asr Hassanil Bolkiah Mosque ma.

Oh and I can see the Royal Regalia's roof! I used to like going there when I was younger because it's sooo huge and quite empty....and cold! Plus our school- SGS is super near to it!!!! But I only remember going there once with you guys. Wanna walk over to Moon's place also can see it right across the road!!

Oh! and I don't see SGS, but I know where it is la...... . I'm guessing the green building further up from the Royal Regalia's roof is Moon's old apartment? And I see CHMS!!!! and Pusat Belia!!! Then got Chinese temple! HSBC??? right? and Lina, is the building where we had our POA tuition in the pic too?

And the padang!!!! National celebration, Sultan's Birthday......then we have flag waving and we'll all be lining up along the road from Istana till there!!! haaha.....the old flag waving days!! And if some important people from another country comes, we'll be waving both countries flag! Then they will provided us with free food. I remember got bun, nasi lemak and drinks. hahaaha.....or was that the Sea Games package for dinner every night?

Ahhh sooo many memories!!!!

Yalo!!! and I was such a good girl somewhere(ahem ahem) till I met 'these' bunch of ppl....hahaa.....go lepak-ing after class!! Walk from SGS to Yayasan or Bolkiah/ Borneo cinema! Plus the Borneo cinema was 2 storeys summore and there's only a few of us sitting up there on the second floor! Scared me like mad when we watch ghost movies!

Plus once Pancy who was sitting next to me suddenly ran away......scared me half dead! Why suddenly next to me no one!!! Make me run away too!!!! And I remember throwing a bottle down the blacony once.....gomene!!!

Once worse, took the water taxi to Yayasan for the first time in my life in form 3!!! Scared me half dead!

When I look at the postcard, everything seems so calm.....but it's always been calm and safe. I guess that's what makes it special!

Yea, and we're always walking around!!! under the hot sun!!! under the rain!!! when there's stong wind!!!

Oh! And I took the public bus for the first time in my life with Chong, Lina, Moon, Pancy...and got MeiLin kah? I don't remember....Chong's always leading the way..... at first, I don't even know how much is the bus fare or which bus goes where....I just follow! haaha....so sakai and like never sit bus before.

Plus I used to cannot cross roads alone! except for the ones near my mum's shop. And I need to tag along with somewhere especiall when crossing Gadong punya roads....super banyak cars ok!!! And then after lepaking for sometime! Expert liao~~~

Bah, next time you all come KL, I bring you all take bus!!! Then I bring you all to cross roads with even more cars!!! hohoho.....

Lastly, Thanks for the postcard! Really brought back loads of great memories! Plus it was such a surprise!

Arigatou Gozaimasu!!!
