a trip to jb -day 1-

i have been having so much fun that i think i gonna collapse due to lack of rest during this holidays. phew~ i went to johor bahru (as i promised) and i really love the trip!

my 3rd time visiting johor bahru and a brand new experience i gained.

reached larkin bus station at 11.30 a.m. and vonne picked me up in her dad's car. vonne's daddy is really a sweet daddy! because he cooks for vonne! (i can't help thinking guys who know how to cook are attractive!) he cooks! he cooks! the only thing that my daddy would cook for me is---fried egg. *sweat* anyway, my daddy is still the best! *saying this snobbishly*

well, back to my trip. vonne's daddy fetched us to jusco at tebrau city. muahaha! shopping mall! muahaha! katherine's favourite!

it's shopping time!

Roxy's on sale! vonne and i bought these key-chains at 50% discount! gosh gosh gosh!
katherine likes the sea horse very very much! and i'm sure that they are purple in colour! lol.

shopping used up lots of energy of mine. shopping makes no difference from jogging i think. an empty stomach needed to be refill!

vonne brought me to Sizzling Stonegrill!

the restaurant caught our attentions due to its lovely decoration. the design of the restaurant looks so inviting!

got tree 1, see~

the 1st thing that we did after the waiter sent us the menu was not reading it. we took pictures with it! lol.

yeap, i'm a greedy pig. i'm not satisfied with holding one menu.
the waiter was standing behind us and he came out with 'excuse me, can i take your order?' to stop us from drowning in taking pictures and totally forget about placing our order. vonne made all the decision, after all, i'm the guest~ muahaha. i should be served and pampered to the fullest, isn't it, vonne?

continue taking pictures after ordering our food. katherine, take one.

vonne, take one.

katherine, take 2.

vonne, take 2.


here comes our drinks! we talked too much and we definitely needed a cup of cold drink to quench our thirst, and then, continued crapping.

vonne was playing with my ice blended strawberry yogurt drink. we were saying that it looks like p** p** when the blended ice dropped out from the straw. yew~

i have good reason for calling this darling of mine a drama queen. posing with a knife. BEWARE guys, never fool a girl with a knife in her hand!


*drums rolling* here comes our main course! it's raw and we had to cook it on our own.



the mysterious stone!

mashed potatoes tasted like heaven! 5 stars for the mashed potatoes.

i can tell you how embarassing it is taking pictures of this black magic stone. i was so obsessed taking pictures untill a young 'HANDSOME' waiter came to me and asked me to grill my food before the stone turned cold.


forget bout that, let's move on with the food! i grilled and grilled and grilled grilled grilled. *2 slaps on my face for acting childishly*

my 1st time trying stonegrill and i give 2 thumbs for that. it's YUMMY!

i was having fun playing with the meat and the sauce.

the same thing happened to vonne.

i told vonne that she looked nice in that angel and asked her. guess what happened next.


she showed me this proud face of hers lo! lol. then, i was like 'i also want a picture of proud kath!'
and that's how we get this pic>>

why vonne looked prettier when she showed the proud little face but i looked wrong!? sad. fail attempt.

back to the food. we finished everything! muahaha! *burp*

vonne is very contented and..

kath is very satisfied with the food.

vonne and kath were at sizzling stone grill. i swear that there would be a second time. lol.

and yes! we can never forget about our dessert. baskin robbin's!
katherine loves everything that is sweet.

oh! ice-cream, thou art the love of my life!

posing with the ice-cream.

once again, it's vonne.

we had 2 GIANT scoops of ice-cream. One of chocolate and another of strawberry.it's not the ice-cream that melted, it's katherine that melted for ice-cream.

we continued shopping after the ice-cream.

*hours later* FOOD AGAIN!
vonne and i stopped at Food and Tea Hong Kong. vonne told me that we would have to wait in a long queue if we were there on the weekends. lol. lucky us~ it's a wednesday and we can even pick the table we like without having to wait.

isn't it a nice restaurant?

and there goes, cam-whore hour!



P.S.: vonne, we were taking so many pictures that i nearly went crazy uploading the pictures!

oh yes! i got to introduce our food!

this is what i had. grass jelly with black glutinuos sweets.


vonne had corn, sago and herbal jelly dessert.

sweet sour crab meat with mantau.

vonne was saying that the bun is really very small, so i had the gut to order it and smartly thought that it's not going to be a problem for me to finish it (knowing that i have great appetite). surprisingly, the bun is not as small as i imagined! i couldn't finish all the mantaus and have to plead vonne to help me with the 1 and half of mantaus that i really couldn't squeeze into my stomach any further.

phew~ got really tired of shopping and eating, vonne brought me to her home! the very 1st thing that i saw at vonne's house was PEANUT (vonne's doggy)! MUM! I WANT A DOG! A MALTESE TO BE EXACT! i want a pet so badly! sobz.

had my dinner at vonne's house and guess who's the cook! it's vonne's daddy! aww..how sweet~ vonne's mummy was telling me that her dad would not cook if vonne was not at home. i was like 'gosh! lovely dad!'.

after our dinner, vonne drove me to a cinema near her house (vonne, without your indecisiveness, your driving skills would be perfect. lol.). we were planning to have tiramisu before our movie, but too bad, we simply didn't have enough time.

we watched ah long pte ltd. had a great laugh in the cinema just like everyone else.

not giving up on the tiramisu cake, we decided to have our tiramishu cakes after the movie, BUT (sometimes i do hate using BUT) the cafe was closed! argh! i want my cake!
sigh. we then went home without tasting my desired tiramishu.

it had a strenuous day! lying on the bed, i closed my eyes, with a smile on my face, i felt into a gentle slumber.

that's all for day 1 in johor bahru. phew~ it's a long post which i think is full of pictures rather than words. lol.
once again, thanks vonne for the trip. you made it a memorable one. ^*^

cheerio~
