Lucky or Not

Lucks come and go. We may don't know when we're going to be lucky or not. We can only know whether we're lucky on or after things had happened.

For example, today while walking around the streets and bump into a hundred dollar note on the road. We'll be consider it lucky to have extra $ that we can right away go McDonald's and order BIG MAC & McNuggets XL! The same thing, instead of picking up a hundred dollar note we step on doggy's poo poo. We'll be like "Nabehhhh"!!! and consider it a bad day to start.

Everyday is a good day for us if we look at it on a good way!

I was lucky to try a newly open cafe & restaurant in Gadong that I get to try these with my friends.

Baked Chicken-Chop Rice

Lemon-Chicken with White Rice

Kerabu also known as "Jeruk Bembangan" in Malay

Fish & Chips

Grilled Chicken and Mash-Potato with Mushrooms Sauce

We all had all those at Flavours Cafe & Restaurant that is located at the same block with Little Bean, shop that sells electrical appliances that is nearby to Rejoice Chicken Rice.

I'm not sure if the promotion still on or not. As long as you order any menu that is $5.00 and above, then we can have any drink in the menu with free of charge. If you're lucky enough if the promotion still on, then we can get to try the drinks FOC.

Java Floats, coffee with vanilla ice-cream as topping

Ice-Blended Oreo

Forget what this drink is!

Watermelon Juice

Let's see if luck is by our side to try the all the drinks above with free of charge!

Recently there is one place selling tasty kolomee that had closed down its business. It had been a bad news for the people that loves to eat the kolomee there. It had been all time favorites for the Chinese that the old one, the young one would go there to try the kolomee every weeks or once in a while.

It is known as the Ocean Quarry's Kolomee. The business at Jalan Tutong, Madewa there had closed down.

Bye Bye, one of the delicious kolomee in Brunei.

However lucks never dry out, after a big heavy rain the rainbow always show up telling us that there is always hope for us! It is now moved to Jalan Muara, Simpang 1029! Right after we enter the junction, we get to see the sign above stated Kolomee in Chinese.

I dine-in there every Friday. So far it is my second time and it is still counting.

The taste is still the same as before and fragrance as before. Even it had moved far away but there is still people who would drive extra miles just for its kolomee and kolomee pok. And one of them would be...

ME!!!

BUT don't every try our luck on Wednesday on trying the kolomee! Because how lucky and good we are on that day, we just can't have it.

That is because it's CLOSED on Wednesday!

My First Exp @ Kimchi Restaurant

It has been a long since I last eat Korea's cuisine. It has been so long that I nearly forget how sour can a KIMCHI taste...

Someday in the December 2009, I had the chance to try one of newly established Korean restaurant in Kiulap.


It was the KIMCHI restaurant that located to Regent Square Kiulap, just beside of the Dunes cafe.


It was my first time experience to dine in at the restaurant and it was one nice experience too. The staffs there are friendly and serve you with their beautiful smile. It is hard to find friendly workers these day. I had experiences that when we dine into the restaurant and we have to see the worker's face and they gave us an attitude.

Everyone want to have their meals happily.


See the smile from the waitress, can see the teeth some more!

And no one...


No one want to have their meal that can spoil their mood! No one want to come out from the place that they just dined at disappointingly.

Here comes da foods!


Chicken Bulgogi


The Korean Popiah


Bimbibap


"Cold Noddles, 冷面"

The foods served were nice and tasty too.


And one of the nicest things about Kimchi Restaurant is that we get to enjoy the FREE-FLOW of its side dishes.

Isn't it SIOK? Other than just dine in the Kimchi Restaurant that day. That day also a birthday of a friend of mine. Which was...


ANDY VUN!!! And he received an iPhone on his very own day too.

An iPhone which its specification is custom designed to satisfy this man! But it is an iPhone that could not call, could not send sms but can receive sms! That is because it is Handmade!

Other than that, majority of the iPhone's features still remains the same.


A lot of small icons at its home-screen that is actually the same as the real one.




See, it is still able to read SMS sent by others and we able to slide the screen to view the next sms!

The only thing that is special and the latest iPhone 3gs that sells on the market also didn't come with this specification, it is the only thing that is different from the real iPhone which is its memory.


This one comes with "1TB'!


Right after the dinner, we went to Kianggeh food-court to sit and had some Teh-C Tarek.

Took a few photo shots near the riverside.


Never bring an emo people near to riverside/ hillside/ seaside. It is very dangerous! Hahaha...


Still there hesitating... Let me help you!


Have a good start on da beginning of the week! Let's start it with a SMILE :)

Time flies!


Just like the speed of light! 2009 just passed and now it is 2010. It is so fast that sometime we missed some of the moments and chances. What past had past, we can't turn back time but we can learn from the past and make better changes for the time up ahead us. Let's us all have a great 2010!

Right before 2009 ended, i have the chance to meet new people from country that is far far away. It is my first time experienced to bring strangers that I met through the internet and show them around in Brunei. And whats more new is that they are...


ANG MOH!!! Say hi to Inaki & Esther! They came all the way from Spain to try the local cuisine and love Brunei a lot. It was a nice time spending with them that we talked and laughed.

And before the 2009 end, I spent the last of it at my cousin's place with my family and relatives. As mentioned before on the previous post, December is the month of barbecue!


As always, the most favorite chicken wings that my cousin prepared. Had been eating these for years. As for these year, there is extra menu that caught my attention and appetite which is the...


BBQ tiger prawn that stuffed with cheese and black pepper!!! YUMMY...
That is the last meal I had in 2009! Bye bye 2009.

And hello 2010.


The first place that I went in 2010.

2010 reminds me of school reopen! Awww~ It also had been a while since I had long holiday. The time I totally put the word "school" aside! It was a fun holiday that I spent all the time with my friends.


But sometime having too much free time is not good too. It is because by the time we woke up, we don't know what to do next and seems like there are no aim or any productivity on the day. These are the times that we started to do some "no-life" thing!

Spotted that on one of the shopping center in Brunei and decided to put a signature on it too!


Can you all guess where the place is?

Holiday is coming to an end. It is time to get serious!!!

Another Short One Again

Another short update again, other than holiday that makes me think what December is all about. It does make me think of others too.

Such as,

BARBECUE!


It is the month of celebration. Celebration of a year of hard works at school, the flying color result that everyone scored, Merry Christmas and the Happy New Year. It is celebration that we all want to have it with Barbecuing the foods that we like, having it and spending all the time with the people that are close!


Happy Barbecuing Everyone!!! Best wishes from Happy-Stop.Blogspot.Com!


Went for hiking again yesterday. This is the third time I hiked this month and it is a record breaking which I hike continuously in the same month since I last hiked few years back. Gambateh!

It is nice to hike with companions that we can talk along the way. It is better than alone walking through the jungle. Other than that, if one is tiring and could not continue any farther there is still other there to help in carrying. It is better that we all can take care of each other all through the way. That is because...


Hiking can be Dangerous!!!


Tasek Lama has been the place where I used to hike and it's still the same place I go now. Bukit Shahbandar also a nice place to hike where we can see the sea by the top of the hills. Why not I choose there? That's because It is SUPER KICK-ASS intensive while hiking at there & I'm NOT ready for it.


Other than that, there are foods selling around there and it is not far away from Tasek. And we can reach there just by walking instead of driving. Me, Chee Hwa, Andy & Jestina decided to stop there for breakfast after the walk.


Ordered ShuMai


Chee Cheong Fun


Kolo MeePok


KoloMee

While eating, I came across these!!! A bad name for Chinese Food in Malay translation menu!!!
