From Manhattan to Seoul...

"Move out of your comfort zone.
You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward
and uncomfortable when you try something new."

That's one of the reasons we went out and did the "journeys".

Enjoy!

Was in The Manhattan (Fish Market) Restaurant, in KL.

















Before we "flew" to Seoul (Garden) in PJ
















But they can't beat the favourite when in Terengganu

Ikan singgang




with budu (sometimes with tempoyak..mmmm)




and ulam Raja/Daun selasih





That would make me forget about my diet!


hehehe..

You are so right la...mana bole lawan ikan singgang and Budu!! Last week we all makan kat our favourite restaurant kat Kuala Berang. Makan lauk2 kampung ikan sungai, ngan ulam-ulam tu. Perghhh! Kami makan mcm 10 hari tak makan..Kalau nak g situ lagi, I kena diet seminggu dulu..
