Another favourite of mine in SS2, way back I posted this picture...see how long it took me to actually create this post! That was just before I started We Ate This.

Anyway if you are looking for good Xiao Long Bao at a decent price, do check it out.

BTW please leave your comments over at We Ate This and not here - Thanks!

One of my favs last time before it became too expensive, still visit now and then for some very satisfying seafood curry noodles.

This is the plain soup type - packed full of seafood!

Not as good as it used to be, but still a pretty decent place to get pasta and their risotto is actually good!

Apparently it's now closed down though, somehow that doesn't surprise me with the decline in quality of food and service.

Not sure why these Kopitiam places are getting so popular, they are starting to crowd the shopping malls...

I stopped by this one to try out the Hainanese Chicken Chop, it was pretty good but I doubt it's authenticity. Anywhere I can get a good Hainan Chicken Chop?

I wonder if I'll get any comments with no pictures only words

It's become such a habit to post picture, maybe I've overdosed on pictures this weekend, pictures of females anyway.

Let's just talk about what I did instead of looking at the results for once.

Was back to the office on Thursday and Friday...definately not enjoying the blue skies whilst stuck in my cubicle!

Friday night went for some good Indian food in Bangsar One at Sagar, then onto a local photography magazine TT (DCM), a TT for the uninitiated is a Teh Tarik or Technical Talk session, there are loads of groups that have these kind of meetings.

Basically it's for a group of ______ geeks to get together and talk about their hobby, equipment, techniques, upcoming events and so on (______ can be car/camera/fishing/bird watching/diving etc).

After that a coffee at Starbucks with Paul Tan for his birthday, happy birthday Paul and hope you are enjoying the D80

Saturday morning was off to 1-Utama for a quick lunch and then a chance to shoot catwalk models for the Photogenic contest sponsored by Shong Lee.

This was my first try at shooting catwalk and my first competition.

It was quite fun and quite easy although my compositions were not very creative my technique was decent, I'll post more and some tips on DigiSniper.

Saturday night was a light dinner with KY at the Mee Sua place, then off home to process some pics and sleep early..

Early because Sunday morning..I got up at 8.30am! For an outdoor model shoot, again another first for me, I'm not really good at portrait/model shooting and it's something I really need to work on. So I'm practising and trying to improve.

After that it was off to 1-Utama again for the competition prize ceremony and to collection my consellation prize (I came 10th out of 21 entrants), which is not bad for my first try and I shot without flash..

Got horribly lost in KL after that picking something up, then there was a downpour and the roads flooded...so I got stuck and stressed, by the time I got home it was too late to go to a BBQ I was invited for..so I chilled at home, processed a few of the model shoot pics from the morning, I did ok Need some work on posing the models though.

So that's two firsts this weekend, popped my cherry twice in one weekend!

And today, back to work zz..

One of my favourite foods in the world evar!

I used to spend my whole life in SS2 in the cybercafe Horus playing endless hours of DOTA or in one of the nearby eateries, more often than not across the street at Misai having a teh o ais limai and a plate of Indomee Goreng, or a Giraffe Burger!

Other than that I used to often eat at this place, Restoran Taiwan Noodle House for their amazing Pork Noodles (make sure you order dry), their dumplings and chicken curry is also recommended.

I always wash it down with a Jumbo Starfruit juice, helps me fill up my stomach...rather than whacking 2 portions of noodles, which I would love to do

This is the star of the show, Taiwanese Pork Chop Noodles, yum yum yum yum!

The noodles are lovely and smooth with some great chilli paste and a perfectly crispy pork chop.

The pork is really delicious.

The dumplings.

The food is pretty cheap, about 6 bucks for the noodles, I recommend it highly!

If you are in SS2 perhaps give Wong Kok Chan Char Teng or KTZ a miss and try out this place, you won't regret it.
