My Food Hunt: Vivo , AEON Bandaraya Melaka (near Starbucks)

Loha! Im back with more food!haha 

*warning! if you are hungry now please do not scroll down to avoid any mental suffering*

had been eating great recently and thus explains the lining up of more food hunt post coming soon!haha

so today's post, VIVO!! The best cafe i had encounter so far!! xD

the place of great food & great price! and mind you, great food n price usually wont come in a same sentence. cz in order to get a better food, you nid to pay more. but no! this cafe proves you wrong! they made these 2 adjectives come in together in a sentence! :)

hmm.. let me show you wat we ordered! hehe

started off with this sparkling juice! yummy~ n its fizzy! xD

next up..

Lemon Herb Salmon Steak!

gawd!! the salmon skin is so crispy and nais!!!!!!!! make me hungry just looking  this picture...

Baked fish pasta! 

The taste of the fish and sauce blends so well that i just had to ordered every single time i visit vivo! LOL

and its not just me.. all the different groups of fwen dat went wif me tried and said it was awesome! :)

Teriyaki chicken

Very flavourful! 

You can even taste the teriyaki sauce inside the chicken.

 Most of the places that i have tried, the taste usually stuck on the skin and if you are like me (ppl wont often remove the skin) you will often end up eating a tasteless chicken.. haha

Oriental Baked rice

This dish is a little spicy but it a good match if you have already ordered a lot of creamy/cheesy dishes. It will spice up your meal a little ;)

oh! and when we went the other time, they had this promotion..

yup.. this offer.. the baked rice we ordered was listed here. therefore we get to order another personal pizza for half price! whee!!!

oh! n from here you can roughly see the price range la.. hehe

and so we ordered this! n i forgot wat flavour was this.. hahahah

so these are wat we ordered for 4pax. was soooooooooooo full after the meal dat i cant really move afterwards! haha

definitely on top of list for cafes so far.. ;)

go try and tell me your experience..

and oh! if u wana see wat other menus they offer, do check out the Vivo Official Website :)

Experiment 101 : The Magnificent Coke!!

just a quick update to make my blog alive!hehe

had been curious all these while after listening lots of ppl say how coke can actually clean a toilet bowl (bt cleaning i mean REAL clean.. ok? )

they even have you tube videos and so on.. bt this never stop me from questioning myself.. 

sure a not? gt so pro meh?? can clean til lidat.. they sure gt do smth or mix smth to the drink wan.. if cn clean til lidat means the drink sure very gai to our stomach liao lo?? if so teruk..government where cn let them sell o? rite rite rite??

so..after tahan-ing the curiousity for years.. finally we had decided to try it out! xD

MISSION :  to clean the basin in the toilet with only a bottle of coke + a brush to scrub it!

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!

so.. now let us see the condition of the basin before the mission start alrite? 

( please do not scroll down if you are eating.. later you puke i dunu a.. )

.

.

.

the bacteria-ful of basin! LOL

.

.

.

so.. do u tink coke can do the job? xD

come on.. place your bet here..hahaha

and the answer is....

YES!!

the end result!! clean anot??  you say la! @@

 and the best part is.. you dun rely have to scrub it! the dirt will come off itself! all you nid to do is.. just pour the coke on the basin.. the you will see some immediate chemical reaction thing happen (like the ones we always see in lab kind) then after that just use the bus to wipe the dirt off! that simple!!

its even more simple that using a bottle of detergent! use detergent sumore nid to wait for few minutes den nid scrub and all.. this one, so simple! OMG!

incase.. you stil dun believe it yet.. let me show you a compiled version!

the one on the left is my friend, calvin. he is the one conducting the experiment actually..haha bt im the photographer! xD

anyway, after seeing all this things, dont you find coke magnificent?? its a drink and yet a cleaning agent!! hola~ 2 in 1..

p/s: sometimes i always wonder, if i wana cleanse my stomach.. cn i just drink a bottle den jump up and down to spread the drink thoroughly in my stomach.. then drink mayb another cup of plain water? wont my tummy be clean and free from bacteria already? xDD

ingredient :
1. chinese seaweed (soaked in water few hours b4 cooking)
2. chicken meat
3. fresh tofu
4. fish balls
5. egg
6. salt to taste


method :
1. slice the chicken meat (make sure u removed all the fats if you do not want your soup to turn out oily)
2. boil the water
3. throw the chicken in once the water boil. (ya..just dump it in, alright?)
4. when you see the chicken is almost cooked, throw the rest of the ingredient (except the egg) in.
5. close your wok n let your ingredient dance around in the hot pot (20minutes)
6. once everything is cooked, crack the egg in and add salt to taste.
7. your soup is READY TO BE SERVED! XD

bye bye 2010 and hello 2011!!

hie everyone!!


happy belated x5 new year! LOL


wishing all of you a great year ahead and success always!!


to all my loyal readers, thanks for stopping by to hear my nonsense all the time! :)


to new readers...

hie! dis is me! in case u dunu who am i. LOL

and welcome to my blog! :)

so yea...this is my first blog of the year!!hehe

the year 2010 in a nutshell is indeed a great year for me! i must say that i truky enjoyed myself a lot last year despite facing many changes and challenges in my life..

hmm..that particular year made the biggest changes in my life to be exact! why?

1. gt my FIRST choice of course and also in the public university that i wanted! yea!its like double bingo for me.. im seriously very grateful and thankful for being offered this course! oh! in case u dunu..im doing degree in mechanical engineering major in design and innovation right now.

so now u may wonder..what? mechanical enginering for a girl? are u nutz or smth? well..i would say..its 21st century now..and girls and guys are all equal aren't they?hehe

2. first time in my entire life to leave my hometown and stay all by myself in a new place called malacca!

call me pampered brat or smth bt thats true... :( im forever stuck in penang island that i think i've been to seberang perai (mainland) less than 10 times in my entire life!LOL

so travelling all the way south living alone without any relatives here in malacca was a challenge to me at first.. However, thank Buddha that i've pull it through and in fact enjoying myself here!xD

3. i survived sem1!haha

to be honest..i was afraid and do not noe what to expact cz the word enginnering sounds bold n tough to me!bt only Buddha knows wat went wrong wif my brain that i picked this course as my first choice in the end and survived sem1.LOL

4. not to forget, the working experience i've gained as part timer.

in 6mths time, i've managed to expereinced working as a part timer in 3 total different field!

i've worked in a perfume shop and also as a brand ambassador for both nestle nescafe and friskies pet food!LOL

its like few mth u wear pretty clothes and work at air-con perfume shop then suddenly u r off preparing samples of nescafe in supermarket and promoting them and follow by promoting pet food in supermarkets!haha

so...after reading all this, don't u think that 2010 is indeed a remarkable and interesting year for me?xD

i will always remember all the wonderful things that happened in the year 2010 in my heart. but at the same time i should move on and welcome the year 2011 wif open arm! rely hope that this year would turn out to be better year than 2010. *crossed finger*

i miss lab session - part 3

the day we wore our lab coat n safety boots for the first time! LOL


thus explain all those super camwhorring shots.. XD






#1







#2








#3








#4





all sorts of funny poses we have!haha..
wondering who gave the idea to make such poses btw..
oh! we did wana snap a series of emotional + yeng pics wif the boots n coat.. but obviously we fail to the max!!

i miss lab session - part 2

this is the most memorable experiment! cz we hav to dress up like an astronaut! lol
thats cz we hav to deal we super high temperature stuff so..for safety precaution we need to dress up like this




im suppose to wear the head gear too for a complete set.. bt i was too pai seh to wear it just to snap pic cz everyone is looking at me! hehe

see! it super hot in there. btw, this experiment is called heat treatment. u know the one u watch in movies or drama where ppl use this method to make glass or sword n etc ??

its 906 degree celcius btw!

so if u wana put smth in.. u hav to use the clipper thing n wear gloves unless u wana hv grilled hands up to perfection * reminds me of kenny rogers suddenly..lol *

i miss lab session - part 1

me hearts lab sessions! XD

cz to me.. lab is like a mini playground!hehe
and everytime when we conduct experiment is like as though we gt to play indirectly!lol



somehow..i wil tend to find somthing amazing n somthing to play everytime we hav lab...haha


funny thing is...


every single lab session wil began wif stress session... cz somehow everytime..my group member wil somehow or another come late n make us ( or me) panic!! although they know that our lecturer wil never allow us to start the experiment without complete attendance... haiz...






after the panic session (everyone finally arrived or we beg the lecturer to let us start our experiment).... the FUN TIME BEGIN!!lol

dats where you hav whole lot of apparatus n material for you to be amazed at n play it.. (ok. i sound like a 'sua pa kau' bt seriously its fun leh...) so off we start to play n play n play until...


oh no!we play too much til we forget the time n ended wif insufficient time to write our report!!! T.T

dats da time u will see the serious n stress me trying my nest to crap a report out to pass up! LOL

BUT I NEVER LEARN MY LESSON!! cz this senario repeats every single week!! so sad case rite?lol

...................................................................................................................

this is the thing used to clamp the copper and aluminium rod before sawing.. yup. we need to saw stuff wan k? n obviously dats the guys job!hahaha

this is rockwell hardness machine! XD

used to test the hardness of materials












and guess wat? the indentor used to test the hardness of metal is.... *drum roll pls..* DIAMOND!! yup! the sharp end of that thing above is made up of diamond! so rich rite?LOL
