Travel

We Were in Bali (Part 1)

Went to Bali last week (19 – 23 April 2010) after more than one year of waiting (from the date we booked the Air Asia tickets). It’s a very budget trip which we got the free air tix and cheap hotel accomodation with Tune Hotel. All that I can say is, if you’re planning a trip to PD, why not Bali? 🙂
 
Checked in to Tune Hotel. We were welcomed with strings of frangipani in the airport, which smelled good…
 
Hungry… had our first dinner at this Chinese restaurant in Discovery Mall. Mine was this seafood fried beehoon (with loads of scallops and prawns).
 
On the next morning, Mein and I walked around Kuta street before our ground tour. This picture was taken at a temple along the way.
 
This is the main tourist area of Kuta. I took this picture on our second day and something happened on the fourth day on this exact spot! You’ll see it in my next post.
 
On our first ground tour, we were taken to a few tourist spots like Taman Ayun Temple, Ubud paddy hills and bla bla bla… I was rather disappointed that it was raining the whole time and we couldn’t even take good pictures. *damn* 
 
These stack of keychain souvenirs were found in Sukawati market. We were laughing all the way when we saw this. Plus the vendor trying her best selling them to us. Can you spot why it’s so funny? (Hint : "SARAWAK"…)
 
This is Tanah Lot Temple. It was late when we reached here. We just snapped pictures from afar. Anyway, nothing much here. All we saw were sea of people flooding the whole area…
 
Mein favourite snack – jagung bakar! Yummy!
 
This was Nasi Bebek Penyet which I liked most. The red hot chille sauce was really super spicy! Yes I like!
Food & Drink

Our Lunch at Sushi Zanmai

It’s a wonderful meal at Sushi Zanmai, The Gardens. Although a bit pricey but the food was awesome!
 
Their name on the menu…
 
My huge plate of wasabi + sweet sauce + soya sauce… chill!
 
The RED plate – scallops…
 
Their promotional dish – Unagi roll…
 
Wah! I liked this – grilled cuttlefish… yummy!!!
 
Take a look at this! Ala-shabu-shabu with a plate of fresh oysters…
 
Come, take a closer look at those slimmy, fresh oysters… Such a high protein diet! Muahahaha!
 
On the belt… Fast! Grab one…!!!
Siti Nurhaliza

Congratulations Siti in ABP2009!

 
Congratulations, Siti!!! It’s for the final time she’s winning in the Anugerah Bintang Popular 2009. And the best thing was Siti grabbed back the Bintang Paling Popular together with the Penyanyi Wanita Paling Popular this round. It’s the most successful closing for Siti in this award ceremony. Btw, it’s also her 15th year of involvement in the music industry.
 
 
Along side with her 15th anniversary, CTFM organised a contest in their website and the best thing was I was one of the winner and according to DJ Khyree, I was the only one who could answer the bonus question. It was so surprising…! So happy to receive the autographed Transkripsi CD (which I’ve already had a copy without Siti’s signature) and a box of perfumes, compliment from DJ Khyree. Thanks a bunch, buddy!
