back from malaysia and i'm sick! :( had a very good time. ate a lot a lot! haha guess who i met at a pee stop on the way there?? ck! but he was very dao. i thought meeting your classmate in malaysia is rare enough and i would have expected at least a "oh my fancy meeting you here!" or a "so where are you headed?" type of response but he was vague and "oh hello"-y. my sister said he probably needed to pee badly. oh well.

anyways stopped over at USJ to meet my aunt and we had yummyyyyyyy fried kway teow. i wish singapore char kuay teow would have more see hams. i love it yum yum yum... we reached my ah gong's place at about 3. it was so busy!

i was so excited!! my grandma already reserved a table for us! there was ipoh kuay teow, ah zhu's yong tau foo thingy, plate after plate of satay, chee cheong fun, popiah, this cuttlefish with kangkong in satay sauce... everything was so good! but the famous caramel custard was sold out already. i was very sad.

that night was our 'tuan yuan fan'. cos we're not going back to malaysia for CNY next year.
this is what the 7 of us had! it's pretty much the same thing every new year... there's fried fish, prawns, kampung chicken with gizzard liver heart, dong chai ba, siew yok and ipoh tauge (beansprouts.. that's how the coffeshops spell it)! i was so full!

next day had the same kuay teow and noodles for breakfast. and my ah gong made steamed bread for us
he is the big boss! and he always lets me take as many biscuits as i like from the counter
they are very very nice and crunchy! a bit like peanut love letters. heh i wanted to eat them again later that day and i was so sad when i saw it had sold out.... then my ah gong asked one of the boys working there to bring out a new gigantic bottle for me! yay! he asked me to bring the whole bottle home to eat... but i was getting a sore throat already so i only took about 10 home. went shopping after that. aiyah ipoh shopping is quite gross. stuff is quite cheap... but quite ugly too. ooh we went biscuit shopping too! my dad and i were so happy cos the shop had giant tins of peanuts! but we already bought a lot of peanuts so we didn't get the tin in the end. bird you like pong piah right?? the biscuit that's quite hollow with some sticky stuff inside??? i can give you some!

dinner at man zhong restaurant. damn funny! we were wedding crashers! there were like THREE wedding dinners going on that night! horrid right? we kept trying to see which bride was the prettiest. the couple closest to us looked very miserable (prob since they had to share the not-very-big restaurant) so my sisters and i yum seng-ed very loudly for them. i think the wedding guests were jealous of us cos our food was a lot nicer than theirs. heh then when we got back, we helped make custard!
my grandparents' pride and joy.... but i forgot to take a picture of the custard. we da pao-ed some home but we mutilated them trying to get them out of the tin. not as pro as my grandma.

next day headed home but stopped for ampang yong tau foo :D and we da pao-ed some for dinner as well.
