The Manhattan Feast

Location: The Manhattan Fish Market
Event: Birthday Celebration
Total Price: RM300++ (9 teenagers with monstrous appetite)

The Manhattan Fish Market

Nothing special....just a fish chasing the squids. Fish eat more squids become tastier and then the fish will be hooked up by the fisherman and be taken to the Manhattan Fish Market and be served and eaten by us - customers.

However, the process of catching fresh and tasty fishes have some risks. The sea creature, such as in above picture, will harm those innocent but cruel fisherman's ships that roam around the sea. So BEWARE!!

The fishes will be served on this specially branded round wooden foodware (don't know what this is called)

Alright, finished with the 'talking crap' from previous photos. Lets begin with the sauce. Do you know that sauces are very important in Spanish foods? Opss....this is not Spanish foods by the way. The black colour sauce is the soy sauce and the white colour sauce on the right is the tartar sauce. The red colour sauce is none other than the sauce you were served when you ate chicken rice at the hawker stall - chilly sauce.

 

The Fisherman's Giant Fried Platter set (enough for 2 or 3 people). There are variety choices of scrumptious and crunchy sea foods in this platter. Including are fried prawns, fish, calamari, mushrooms with tasty chips and also garlic rice for those that yearn for appetite satisfactions. What I can say is that I love the fishes on the left of this picture. It has tender but crispy layer of fried skin and the most important is the fish is very fresh. When it enters your mouth, you will feel the abundant of fish meats splattering and swimming in your mouth while massaging your tongue and the sauce from the toppings will intrigue your mind to savour every bite of this well cooked fish.

 

This platter is served for 2 person and it has perfectly grilled fish, calamari, big prawns, oysters and of course garlic rice as a wholeness of this set. What is different with this platter and the previous is that this platter is grilled. Which mean its healthier and suit for those that are sensitive towards fried foods.

 

Before this two platters are served, the waiter and waitress will perform some exciting and eye opening demonstration to the customers. The prawns and fishes on the platter will be burned with a highly flammable Bunsen burner which will bring out the aroma from the foods on the platter especially the prawns and the grilled fishes with special sauce on top of it. Burning it with a high degree fire instantly will create a sense of smoothness on the fishes and blend the sauce and the grilled/fried fishes together as a whole creating a newly formed, perfect aroma which will entice everyone within 99999km radius.

 

Three sets of dishes from Manhattan Fish Market. By the way, we ordered peach drink. For your information, it is refillable. We do not know this until one of our friend went to refill. You can actually share a cup of drink and having unlimited refilling of the peach juice. (only certain drinks)

Clean and Clear. Shining and Sparkling. (**Cleaned the plate because we do not have enough $ to pay...**)

Mutated apple?

Just a simple post to show an apple that I bought recently that is very big and huge. It cost me RM2 for this Fuji apple which I normally bought it at a price of RM1 to RM1.50.

 

Observe the size of a typical cloth clipper on the right side and compare it with the size of the apple. Since I am quite free, I measured the size too. It is approximately 7cm height x 8.5cm width x 27cm diameter. Almost twice as large as a normal apple.

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away"

Are you asking why? Below are some answers:

“Apple is full with antioxidants that could reduce the risk of cancer and reduce damage to cells”

“Apples are known to reduce the risk of degenerate conditions such as Alzheimer’s”

“Apple is rich in vitamin C and E”

“Apples are fat, sodium and cholesterol free”

“Apple is full with fiber – good for digestion”

“Two-thirds of the fiber and lots of antioxidants are found in the apple’s skin”

So, EAT MORE APPLE!

Gigantic Meal

Location: Pai Jia Le (Baccarat)  - Kuching

Since my friends and I have finished our test for this semester and we have about 3 more weeks before our final exam, we go out for a celebration. Just a simple outing at a restaurant name Pai Jia Le. Its a name for a casino game which translated to English as Baccarat. However, this place is actually a air-conditioned restaurant offering various dishes which could be ordered. The food price ranged from RM8 and above depending on your order.

Look at the size of the plate…We actually ordered 4 dishes with rice. There are Sarawak Midin vegetable, pork ribs, mamee chickens and salad squids. However, since we are all healthy and active teenagers, we need something more to satisfy our metabolism and enormous storage in the stomach. Therefore, we ordered an extra Kantonis fried mee above. It looked like the “Kon Chao Sang Min” in Peninsular Malaysia.

These mees could filled into 9 stomachs

A very scrumptious, aromatic, crispy and addicting junk food that my roommate import from Kelantan over the South China Sea into the Hornbill state entering the cat city

Since I just found a way to overcome the slow internet speed and the recent virus threat towards the university’s website and network, I tried to post a few blogs today. ^^

I’m currently using Windows Live Writer to write my blog and publish it directly. For your information, Windows Live Writer comes with your Windows Live Messenger. So, all those who often chatting using WLM would probably had already installed this software. Although I can’t use my Flickr account to upload pictures and link it to this blog for faster loading experience, but, hey! at least I can still blog despite the slow (almost zero) connectivity!

So this few blogs, there will be some glitches and errors especially the pictures posted and the picture’s blackquotes (the words beneath the pictures) .

UNIMAS Website Hacked

Do you know the reason behind the slow internet connectivity in UNIMAS (even at CAIS – the magnificent library) or why you are connected to the internet with a very fast connection but you could not even load a page unless you refreshed the page hundreds of times to get it loaded and the page still show some errors?

Thanks to the Indonesian Hackers that all of the people in UNIMAS are facing this disaster. Around the end of September (about 28 Sept), UNIMAS website has been hacked by Indonesian hackers (or crackers for those who understand).

They changed the homepage of UNIMAS official website including all the sub-sites (*.unimas.my) which the professional network security termed it as “website defacement” technique. Its not a virus attack but I know most of the people out there are more familiar with the word “virus attack”. Website defacement is harmless actually except causes some annoyances and in some cases, as a distracting attack for another backdoor attack to the server.

Although the technological department in UNIMAS, namely CICTS, had changed all the websites with new design, but there are still some links that do not work. Maybe they are still in the process of developing it while increasing its security.

However, what can be sure is that after the attack from the system crackers from Indonesia, users that uses the university’s internet connection could not load web pages properly and often need numerous reloading and refreshes to load a simple page.

Fortunately, these problems are having lesser impact on users day after days since that incident. This shows that they are really fixing it! (which is why I am able to post some blogs using Windows Live Writer).

Library in the room

A mountain of books in my room

The books in my room. We can open one library in the room already. Haha. But, this is not the books that I borrowed. Its my roommate’s. This proves that we should respect those who studied politics.

They really did their studies before speaking! (not every politicians and definitely not the current politicians in the nation)
