Durian Feast | Raub

It's almost end of the durian season, which means durians are the best at this moment.
My brother decided to bring my family to a durian buffet at Raub Durian Orchard .

After 4 hours of heavy traffic, because today is the first day of Hari Raya ( Malays New Year ), which we only need an hour to reach if there wasn't any traffic problems. We'd finally reached our destination.


Village looked roads for 1 kilometer until we reached the final destination.



And...We're high up above the jungles.
After stretching, we started our durian buffet.

Do you know how to differentiate these durians? There you go, you know now. =D



They've built a sort of "balcony" look dining place which looks like this.



I was wondering from the first ever time I saw those words. Is it HEAVEN or HAVEN? =X

















These are the buckets of durians we get to choose from.
Conclusion : D160 and Musang King durians are the best. =D


D160
Musang King

These are two of the durians I've had.
After finished eating, my sister and I planned to have a tour in his durian orchard.
This is the view beside the balcony a.k.a. dining place.


A walkway down to the orchard but we decided not to walk the "proper" way down to the orchard. We took another path beside this passage. Wrong Turn 8 is going to happen. =D 

There is a villa, called Villa Musang King, beside the walkway. 


I'm not sure if this is a villa, because I feel like the woods do not give enough support.


The toilets are over there. Latest trend - open-aired toilet. I couldn't stop laughing when I saw this.
What is the use of the bench beside those toilet bowls? 
To watch the people beside while they're having their own business?


After quite some walking distance, we found here deep in the durian orchard full of riped durians.
We were afraid they'll fall on our head. =X


We were recording the moment of it dropping and hoping we could get it and have this FRESH dropped durian. But when it dropped, it fell off to the drain and we left nothing. =(
It resisted to die in our mouth.


Finally we picked up one freshly dropped durian, but the workers there said it wasn't ripe to have it. 
So it has gone into the rubbish bin. 


We ended up looked for a CUTE looking durian from the bucket they offered and ate it. 
It wasn't that good compared to the one we had earlier.

We saw this honey selling beside the durian stall, they said " No Bee No Durians". 
After I've lived for so long and ate durians for all these years, this is the first ever knowledge I learnt from this orchard. I don't know whether it's true because I never google it up. =X


It's an awesome experience visiting the durian orchard but I'll only go for once because it's too far from my house and I can get better ones around my area. Time consuming is a big problem. 
A friendly reminder : Give them a call before visiting them because they need to make reservation for you.

Astro Star Quest Finale | Bukit Jalil Stadium

It was supposed to be held on 19th July 2014, due to the accident of MH17,
it has been postponed to 25th July 2014 which is today. =D

Condolence to the friends and families of the passengers of MH17.


I'm watching the Astro Star Quest Finale 2014 with two of my best friends, Jo and MK. 
It literally was the craziest night ever.

We went there at 5.30 pm although it is written on the ticket as it will be started on 7.30 pm. 
We went there early so we were in the red carpet event.

Of course in this event we are supporting "someone" that we have been observing throughout the competition, which is ------> Sean Khor


This is me with his supporter T-shirt. 

Around 6.00 pm, the red carpet event started, these are the top 5 singers, coming towards our area.


The guy with white suit : Uriah See
The guy with blue suit : Sean Khor
The lady beside blue suited guy : Elaine Lee

The fans of them crowded the whole place, but still breathable in that group of people.


This is a closer look of Uriah See ( Uriah's Instagram / Uriah's Twitter )  and his top fan beside him. She said she loves him a lot way before we walked into the area for the red carpet event. =X

And....Here comes the younger brother of Uriah - Zachary See ( Zac's Instagram ) 
P.S. - My friends said that he's better looking than his brother.


This is the guy that I'm supporting. He might not have the best looking nor the best voice, but within 3 or 4 minutes of a song, he'll melt your heart.


During the red carpet event, I've seen a few song composers a.k.a. the judges that gave the marks to determine the winner of the day. 


They are the Cantonese judges (the two men on stage) and one of the emcees of the day.


The guy on the left : 張智成 a.k.a. Z Chen
The guy on the right : 黃品冠 Victor Wong Pin Kuan


The lady on the left : 黃韻玲 ( A singer and a song composer from Taiwan ) 
She is one of my favorite Taiwanese song composer.


They are the emcees of the day.
Honestly, the girl on the right (Ah Yoke) has became so slim since the last time we saw her on TV show.
Hereby, wish her stay pretty as always. =D


( Numbering from left to right, 1 to 6 )
1 - Emcee of the night, 蕭慧敏 ( Hui Mei )
2 - Lee Elaine ( Elaine )
3 - Ron Peng ( Ron )
4 - Yuii 陳靜宜 ( Yuii )
5 - Sean Khor ( Sean )
6 - Uriah See ( Uriah )

This girl I used to love her so much when she was on her year of competition.


Look how slim is she =0 I'm jealous of her.


We got so hyped during this judge's singing because he got the same first 
and last name as my best friend - Joey.


Joey is the guy in the middle which is playing a guitar.
When we get so hyped over this old man, those people around us were looking as us awkwardly. 

I used to listen to his songs when I was young with both of my sisters. 
Finally I could get a closer look of him, first time ever.


The emcee had just announced that three of them are the top 3 of the competition. 
Go Sean GO~ You're da best. =D


The results are as follow 
1 ) Uriah See
2 ) Sean Khor
3 ) Lee Elaine

I will support him although he didn't get the first place.
It was a tiring night because I stood from 5.30 pm to 11.30 pm.
It was a good experience after all exclude I was super hungry part.

Burger Bar | Kuchai Lama

I've just had a great dinner with my cousins and sister.

These days people are craving about burgers and desserts. 
This is one of the new burger stalls in Kuala Lumpur. 

 They offer chicken burgers, pork burgers, beef burgers and salmon burgers.
Everything serves with french fries/potato wedges and FREE drinks. 


Both of my cousins ordered beef burgers.
On the left :  Egg Beef Burger
On the right : Cheesy Beef Burger

Their comments : The juicy beef melted on their tongue and 
the fries/wedges are so crispy and tasty.
     

Here comes the pork burger, eaten by my sister. 
Her comments : The pork is tasty and the egg is extremely good.

Drum ROLL~~~~~ Here comes my food :D 


Chicken and Ham Burger

The chicken is so juicy, when I cut it with my knife, the juice of the chicken and egg mixed so well. Whole burger is made up of chickens and chicky. 
Wedges were too good but too much of calories.


 This is the old bottled Coke, it literally tastes better than normal Coke, which I don't understand.


Here is a sneak peak of their Menu.


Their design, air-conditioned garden.
