Murni Discovery @ Sunway Mentari Court

Heard of Murni SS2? They’ve got a branch in Sunway Mentari Court now! Surprised?

Good for us residents at Sunway because this makes it easier for us to cash in to this mamak restaurant without having to travel all the way to SS2 or the other branches. Went over and gave it a try..  Took quite some number of photos there of what we ordered below =)

Lychee Special – RM5 -medium sized – It was good but there were frozen nata de coco and slightly frozen watermelon cubes as well.

Bandung – RM2

Roti Beckham!  – Oh , this was nice. >.< -RM5

Maggie Goreng Special. Saw that KURANG PEDAS X3? HAHAHA. – Taste? Hmm, okay not too bad but not too good as well. RM4.50

Mee Raja – RM8. This was supposed to be good but somehow I don’t find anything special about this. This was packed with quite a huge amount of ingredients though.. but hey, nothing special to me.

Overall, this place is nice because its near my place! Food wise, well could be improved.. I didn’t really like frozen nata de coco’s in my drinks so yeah, improve alright?

Another thing, people can’t seem to find this place. Its so ulu..

Here’s how to get there = )

When you are heading towards Sunway Mentari, be on the lookout for the Shell petrol station, move on and you’ll reach Mentari Court. Find for 99 Speedmart and it is just located next to it.

If you have a GPS Device running on malfreemaps, just search for the 99Speedmart POI. Apparently there isn’t any Murni Discovery Sunway Mentari POI on the map yet. Hope someone adds this in soon. =) Refer to the map if you think it will help.

Overjoyed? Time to cash in your money to this place. Damn. Wished they gave me some commission for this. :/

Experiencing The Facebook Slowdown Syndrome?

Ever since the earthquake in Japan which did damage a couple of undersea cables which links Malaysia, the Facebook-ing experience was affected as well. Users have been reporting slowdowns in accessing the site and a quick ping on facebook.com showed that indeed there was something not right with the link to the facebook servers. Probably this is due to the connection being routed to Hong Kong first.

Not to worry, there is a quick temporary solution to this.

 

For MacOSX users, simply launch Terminal and type this in to your host file.

$ sudo nano /private/etc/hosts

then, key in your password.

Add 203.106.85.66 www.facebook.com and 203.106.85.66 facebook.com.

Save and exit.

and that’s it! Fire up your facebook page =)

Ping to facebook.com is now reaaaaaaly awesome.

For Windows users,

The host file is located here

C:WindowsSystem32driversetc

Open the host file with notepad and do the same.

Happy stalking on Facebook!

-hehehunter- found this fix =)

Removing the annoying Facebook lightbox effect.

Facebook introduced a lightbox effect whenever a user clicks on a photo. This feature was pretty cool at the time it was launched but somehow it feels annoying after you’ve used it for a couple of times. For those rocking on a slow internet connection, your Facebook page would load sluggishly after the lightbox is closed. A temporary solution was to open the photo in a new tab and it would display the images the “old style” way.

I’ve found a plugin for Firefox and Chrome which removes this effect so here it is, give it a try if you think the lightbox annoys you. Plan B is to just live with it. Plan C? Quit Facebook all-together.

Firefox users click here.

Chrome users here.

Sundae Ice Cream @ Theobroma Chocolate Lounge, Sunway Pyramid

Apparently the Theobroma Chocolate Lounge in Sunway Pyramid started selling sundae ice creams recently and they are priced at a reaaaaly nice price, RM1.50 nett each. It tasted better than the McDonalds sundae cone and probably is about the same size as the large sundae cone.

I’ve haven’t seen this sundae on sale at the other branches yet but if you are at Sunway Pyramid, give it a try! Sadly, Pyramid Privilege card members, your 15% discount isn’t valid for this sundae ice cream but not to worry, it’s still valid for the other items.

Got my hands on the iPad but now the iPad 2 is out. sigh.

Oh great we have the “new” iPads from apple in our library now and it gets outdated a few days after that(We knew that was coming). Argh, they’ve could have waited for the new iPads to arrive couldn’t they?

They’ve even slashed the price for the old iPads..

It would be the same case I guess after several departments having to approve the idea ,then to the finance department then to the many many other departments.

and here’s the all new iPad 2 with its dual-core A5 chip!

 

 

 

 

Sigh!

UPDATED POST HERE 8/1/2012 : ( CLICK ME )

How does it taste?
Awesome , awesome , awesome!

Heard from another Klang fella, Phaik Joo said that there were many other dishes which are equally delicious.Since it was a “supper” visit, I will have to make another trip to this place and get more dishes served.
I’ll be back. =)

Yao Yao Ping & Fried Chicken @ Klang

Having an iced drink or ice-kacang on a sun scorching day would be the best thing on earth if you are in Malaysia. That’s what I experienced and thanks to valnot’s owner, I had this thing called the Yao Yao Ping and a few pieces of fried chicken at Klang. The restaurant name is simple, Yao Yao Ping Restaurant as it is the same name as the food/drinks they serve.

We headed there and I was pretty surprised that the shop wasn’t really occupied. Maybe because we went there at an odd time because I’ve seen photos of this place before and oh boy it was crowded! Mind you, this shop was once endorsed by the 8TV Ho Ciak show as well.

So what is yao yao ping? It’s pretty much similar to what we call ice-blended here but with local ingredients. They had this longan flavor, bubur cha cha, red bean, sour plum and a couple more.. I can’t really rememeber but there are a variety of flavors which you can pick from. You could even have 2 flavors in a cup.

I had this flavor. Honestly I don’t know what flavor is this already. I think its bubur cha cha and sour plum. Haha! It was nice with the smooth blended ice. Simply refreshing.

Here’s the fried chicken. Ignore the walnut please haha.

Overall this place is worth visiting if you have not tried or hear of yao yao ping before. It is something different from what we usually have and the fried chicken simply compliments it with its skin fried to perfection while retaining the juicy meat inside.

Landmarks? Opposite SRJK (C) Pandamaran B.
Address: 1503B, Jalan Young, Pandamaran, Klang, Selangor, Malaysia.
Business Hours: 12:00 pm to 7:00 pm
Price: RM 1.30 per glass of Yao Yao Ping and chicken price depends on the part of the chicken.
