That morning we went to fix my car lock which is still faulty today. After that we went to Gardens Mall (my work place unfortunately) to get my new camera. Then I got my Gardens Club card and we spent some leisurely time at the club’s lounge before catching Harry Potter at GSC Signature while my camera battery is charging at the camera shop.

Our initial plan was to head out to Klang for seafood. By the time the movie finished, the after office hour jam started. So we drove back to PJ. I was thinking of going to Subang airport for seafood but the bf was getting impatient in the jam. Then we decided to turn off at Ara Damansara instead.

It was our lucky day. We found out Lala Chong had shifted from Subang airport to Ara Damansara. So I got to try the food at last and the bf need not be hungry anymore. My new camera was ready to shoot some food pictures.

We ordered Steamed Lala, Sweet Sour Crabs (I wanted it) and Salted Egg Crabs (he wanted it). We could not finish both crabs. This is what happen when we both wanted our own preference.

The food is good. Price is reasonable and the place is spacious with good parking condition.

I won’t be driving to Klang for seafood unless I get to watch the sunset in Klang. Yeah, the sunset is beautiful minus the sandy beach. It’s a nice walk along the coast lined with trees.

I wish I can be away for some holiday. It was the total opposite for me.

On Thursday I was given some last minute urgent assignment by the boss. There I was working late in the office. I couldn’t stay for long because the aircon shut down. At that time I was actually trying to copy a lot of files into my portable hard disk so that I could complete the work at home.

1st of May, I was working at 12am and was uploading the files. It took hours and hours. Slept for 5 hours, I had to follow my parents to Nirvana in the morning. I took a nap in the afternoon and calls from my boss started to come in the evening. Lets just say that he was away and did not bring his notebook along. In the end, he gave my number to our director who requested for the presentation.

The next few days I was living in uncertainties. Do I go out? Am I suppose to wait for him to call? What if he calls and I am not with my computer? Did not get any calls in the end but I was prepared to go into the office early on Monday.

My only “day off” was Sunday when the bf and I made plans to have lunch at Rakuzen. I was happy that he made an effort to wake up. It was a nice drive down town. We parked at Chulan Square at RM3 per entry. There were trees lining the car park giving shade. This is a good place to park if I want to go to Pavilion on a Sunday.

We accidentally ordered too much sushi. Big mistake! The All-You-Can-Eat buffet is priced at RM55++ per adult. The food is freshly prepared. However I find that it lacks variety. We chose Rakuzen after we heard some horror stories about food poisoning in another buffet join.

After lunch we walked over the Pavilion and caught a movie.

I wasn’t feeling that well but decided to go ahead with our plans because a weekend like this is hard to come by for me. Classes took up most of my weekends but I’m thankful for the extra income. It helps make my life a bit easier though I still hope to make more money.

If you happen to be in Mid Valley during lunch time, now is the time to enjoy lunch special!

So on my blog I will share only my absolute favourites.  I am not going to bring a camera along just to take pictures of everything I eat so that I can blog about it. When I am dining, all I want is to enjoy the food and company of the person I am with. What we should be doing more is to have a leisurely meal over hearty conversation.

It is very rude indeed to point a camera at each and every dish especially when one is not eating alone. I face this situation during company lunches sometimes. First of all, it made us look like “sa-kai”; people who never been to restaurants before but we’re a bunch of people in office attires. Secondly, there should be some level of respect for the people whom we’re sharing the meal with. Thirdly, this is a very childish behaviour.

If you’re traveling on a holiday it is another matter. Why should one be going crazy over daily breakfast, lunch and dinner? Why not let the food surprise you?  It is more exciting and meaningful to explore and discover something. Rather than chasing after good food alone. I see this as human greed. Believe me, we’re being punished by greed but most of us choose to deny this by substituting greed with other things we want to believe.

So my food topic will seldom have photos, unless I feel like it.
