Eggs that stand..

youliang — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 12:31:54 +0000

With all the news about egg standing today, I thought, hmm, why not? Let’s give it a try..

Tried to stand an egg for probably around 1 minute and I got smarter after that. Got my eggs to stand!

Tadaaa! The eggs are standing!

Yup, I cheated. It was much easier AHHAHAHA.

Why does this happen? I mean the real egg standing not mine.. probably Mr. Esmonde Lim could explain why. I’m just too lazy to Google and paste it here!

Probably the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever done..

Morganfield’s @ Pavillion, KL

youliang — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 11:03:28 +0000

Came across several articles about Morganfield’s at Pavillion, KL recently. They were supposed to be specializing in pork ribs which is good because at the moment I have not came across any other restaurant which serve pork ribs this way. Tony Romas/TGI’s are the common ones but they do not serve with the best thing on Earth, Pork.

Located at Level 4, Pavillion, I headed over to give it a try after a friend of mine, Reng Kwan went there previously.

Nice cosy environment and adequate lighting to begin snapping away with my camera!

There she is with the menu! Getting shy and excited over her birthday celebration eh? =p

One of the drinks served there, looks good eh? Taste it and you’ll turn sour. There’s something in it which I think is some grated lime skin which makes the drink bitter when the sediments are chewed. Urgh~ Hope they’ll do some modifications to the drink. I don’t know, not my cuppa lime juice HAHAH. I forgot the name here already , perhaps someone could shed some light on this?

The “jiu pai” sticky pork ribs =D. I had the 1/2 slab variety as I felt that a whole slab would be killing. Yes it is filling. The sauce provided was adequate, even provided me with an extra bottle of vinegar. Sorry newbie here, I didn’t know what to dash the vinegar with but they tasted good with the hot crispy fries. Yes it was nice.

What we have here are small cutlets of lamb chops. The plate? Pretty huge. The contents on the plate? Very tiny..

The lamb cutlets were juicy and tender, just to my liking. Baked potatoes were my all time favorites just wished that they would provide more cheese on top of it. More lamb cutlets too, please? 3 small pieces couldn’t even fill a girl’s tummy.

Nom-nom nom~the pork ribs @ Morganfield’s

Last but not least, the birthday girl!

Happy Birthday Clover Chang! <3 .

Happy Birthday to you,

Happy birthday to you,

Be a good gal. XD

As you are now older, don’t nag too much okie? Listen to me more often and you shall get more cakes =P .

Oh yea, the brownie + ice-cream + cream tasted goood as well .

Had another serving of ice cream. They ran out of chocolate ice cream so we had to get the strawberry one instead..

Overall the whole experience was good with great and friendly service from the waiters. Just request for anything, and they would try their best to get it for you. =).

Kenny Rogers Buy 1 Free 1 @ Sunway Pyramid. SUCKS.

youliang — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 15:19:22 +0000

So once again Kenny Rogers had their Buy 1 Free 1 Promotion (buy a 1/4 meal and get another one free). You’ll have to dress up in something red to be eligible to get this offer. So I went… and YES I regretted. Laugh all you want..

1st bad impression – They restricted the side orders to coleslaw, mashed potatoes and baked beans. OMGWTFISTHIS?! Nobody eats these stuff! Anyway being someone famous for his stinginess~ I willingly agreed to this and got a seat.

The muffins. Same ol’ muffins. Nothing bad happened in this. Still the same old taste.

crack me up babe!

Look at this! It looks “GREAT” right? The mashed potatoes tasted like baby food without any taste. ALL WATERY. Chicken tasted like it was made of some rubber dough kinda thing. One word. PLAIN. Even with extra gravy, the chicken still did not have THE CHICKEN TASTE. EPIC FAIL.

The other two side dishes were, normal.

We were feeling all gooey and sick after all these.. GTFO Kenny Rogers Sunway Pyramid. I’ll never have return visit.

kthxbai.

Restoran Boston Baru @ Klang (update)

youliang — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 03:31:38 +0000

Previously I made a post about this restaurant here way back here in March 2011. Almost a year now. At that time I only went for the clams but in this recent visit, there were more dishes ordered. So how did they fair?

Still the same old dirty, shop with people like me waiting for them to start the business at 6pm. No longer 7pm. Look at that Clover Chang sticking her head up with a HMMPH!

Tadaaa! food ordered. Arrived after a long wait ( approx 30mins?)

Fried-squid with tomatoes and cucumbers. They were not crispy but rather a tad soggy when chewed upon.

Fried mantis prawns a.k.a urinating prawns (lai liu har) with oats and sugar. The only thing crispy on this dish was the un-melted sugar which gives a slight crunch when you bite em’ . hahahaha.

Fried Choy Sam. I wondered why we had more stem than leaves.

Last but not least, the la la la la la. Probably this was the only dish that was good.Had 2 plates of them.

Glorious shells~

In conclusion, you can only go here for the lala but nothing else. Probably it was good before this but now.. NOPES!

Updated with coordinates now too!

p/s: Yeah, helping Sunway Lagoon to advertise here too. They had fireworks during the countdown

Rosemary Bites @ Aman Suria

youliang — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 10:24:49 +0000

Here’s a place at Aman Suria which serves out western dishes supposedly to come from the US. It is located a few doors away from Betty’s Midwest Kitchen but then the prices are much lower here. Been here twice, once when it was featured on one of the coupon sites and it was a pretty good deal and now I’m returning for more.

The interior here is decorated with various flags from the states, photos of rosemary everywhere and the tables are really limited here. Probably only about 10 tables or so. The chef takes a reaaaaly long time to get the dishes out. Probably because the whole shop is only limited to 3 staff. One to take orders, one serving the food and the chef himself. Pretty cost effective huh?

Here’s the Columbus Lamb Chop. RM19.90

and here’s the Chicken Chop – RM13.50

Taste wise, ok-lah~ not an overkill for my tiny wallet. Similar prices to those of Kenny Rogers/Nando’s. If you are looking for some high class place, then this is not the place to be but then for a decent meal, tastes pretty good to me

Guide: Install OSX Lion 10.7 GM on Gigabyte GA-G31-ES2L

youliang — Fri, 12 Aug 2011 16:01:44 +0000

Retail OSX Lion installation on Gigabyte GA-G31-ES2L with ATI HD4670 QE/CI, Sleep/Intel StepSpeed working, audio (only analog). Everything works, except for digital out audio ATM
- A simple guide on how to get the Lion roaring on your hackintosh.

I’ll be using a USB install disk to get this done.

Well, there are a huge amount of resources out there for you to follow but here’s a compilation on how I done it on my setup.

What you’ll need.
- A retail Lion Installation USB.
- An Intel Core Duo/Core 2 Duo/Core 2 Quad/Core i5/Core i7 processor (as long as it is 64bit capable)
- Gigabyte G31M-ES2L Rev 1.x F8/F10
- >1 GB RAM (you wouldn’t want to run it if you have less than this)
- Sapphire ATI HD4670 512MB card
- SATA HDD
- A current mac installation to get the USB installer

Many thanks to MaLd0n from Insanelymac.com as most of the instructions are sourced from here.

1. Creating the USB Bootable Installer

Mount the InstallESD.dmg

Open Terminal and run the command: open /Volumes/Mac\ OS\ X\ Install\ ESD/BaseSystem.dmg

At the Disk Utility app, restore BaseSystem.dmg to your flash drive. It would take a couple of minutes.

After the restoration, open the restored partition, navigate to System/Installation, delete the Packages link and create a folder with the same name, Packages.

Open Terminal and run the command: open /Volumes/Mac\ OS\ X\ Install\ ESD/Packages

Then install, “Extra Lion” and “Charmelon RC5″ into the USB Flash drive.

Reboot the pc and boot from the flash drive, the installation should run perfectly here.

2. Boot up Lion via Charmelon from the USB drive. (As you can see, the ATi 4670 works perfectly OOTB here with dual screen enabled as well)

- install Charmelon on the drive.

- get RealtekR1000SL.kext and place it in /extras/extensions

- get VoodooHDA-0.2.56.pkg and install that for 2channel audio (analog)

-get the ES2L package from insanely mac’s wiki and patch your dsdt, smbios.plist.

3. Reboot.

You’re done. Simple as that. Much much simpler than getting Snow Leopard installed on the same config.

Btw, if anyone manages to get Digital Out (optical) audio running on this board please do let me know. =)
