Phuket Getaway - Preview

We booked this air tickets one year ago during the Air Asia zero air fare promotion. In a blink of an eye, we flew and came back to reality already. Time really flies...


This was my first overseas trip for year 2011. I was pretty excited as I have heard so much about Phuket before the trip. And true to what people said, it's really magical~ Hahaha..

Months before taking off, we have planned our itinerary & hotels at Phuket. Here's what you'll see in my coming posts.

Homemade Pan Mee

2 April 2011 @ JooLi's Place

Pan Mee (扳面) is a Hakka-style noodle, originating from Malaysia. Its Chinese name literally translates to flat flour noodle. (Wikipedia, 2011)

Pan Mee is one of my favourite type of noodles and my mom used to make her own for lunch every now and then. The adventurous side of me tickled me to try to make it all by myself. So I pulled JooLi along to be my co-chef.

Ingredients for the noodles (4 servings):
- 500g flour
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon oil
- water


Knead the flour, egg and oil together and add water occasionally to make them stick together. Knead, knead, knead until your flour rolls into one big smooth lump. Be careful not to add too much water though.


Besides the noodles, we also did:
- Soup (boiled with ikan bilis, vege & meatballs)
- Meat sauce (stir fried minced pork & sliced mushrooms)
- Fried ikan bilis
- Half-cooked eggs
- Chili flakes (bought from Chili Pan Mee shop)
- Spring onions & fried shallots for garnishing

The rest is pretty simple. Flatten the noodles. Tear/cut them into pieces and boil them. Then drain the water and add the other ingredients in as you like and... Wua-Lah!

My experimental recipe was a success! And I love it! Yummiez! Billy, out.

Anniversary Dinner at Outback Steakhouse

21 March 2010 @ Outback Steakhouse, Bangsar Village

Everytime I bypass Bangsar Village, I feel like dining at this place. It's the Outback Steakhouse!


We decided to try it out on this special occasion. The description of the food is quite seductive, but not the price though... Hehehe...

#1: Bushman 'Shrooms

We ordered a starter for our dinner - Bushman 'Shrooms. It's platter of mushrooms breaded and deep fried served with spicy ranch dressing. You've gotta eat this while it's still hot. The mushrooms are so juicy you have to be careful not to squirt to your friend when biting it.

#2: Her all time favourite Fish 'N Chips

#3: BBQ Chicken Quarter For Me

The chicken is very tender but I love the potato most. The sauce on the chicken has a 'lil sweet taste, not a good choice for those who doesn't fancy sweety dish.

People must be thinking that I'm crazy to go to a Steakhouse and not ordering steak. Maybe next time? Would love to go again! Billy, out.
