Supper & Reunion Dinner with Coursemates!

Hie guys...this is my latest update since my last one in December. Juz finished test recently and went out to supper and reunion dinner with my coursemate (on different days) before going back to mlk for my sem break and also the following CNY celebrations with family. We went for our first late night supper on wednesday night. Audrey, the driver brought us to a place at Jalan Padang Kota Lama where we had our first round of supper which was trying out a sea snail or 'siput' called balitung. It's my first time trying out this siput and it was nice but I could not eat much as I get the 'jelak' feeling after awhile especially with cockles, la la, oysters and etc. Hehehhe... Our second round of supper was at Gurney drive where we had tong shuis like cendol, bubor cha cha, pek kuan ling zhi and some seafood fritters and penang asam laksa included. After supper, we hang out around the area and did some camwhoring...hehehhe...

Next up is the reunion dinner we had yesterday night where it was at a Thai Restaurant called Von Thai. There were eight of us and the restaurant offered set meals for RM9.80 per set. Considered cheap huh for Thai food...Now don't jump into conclusions that the food was small portion and not filling enough with juz two varity of lauk cause the price per set is so cheap. They have 20 tpyes of sets with each having different combinations of four dishes, one rice and one dessert. Of course the portion is for one person but because of the four dishes plus dessert it was kinda filling and very tasty too. AND VERY SPICY!!! The set combination I ordered was...kerabu mango, pud pet chicken (curry dish), stuffed crab shell and a bowl of tom yum soup (with some meat balls, prawns and crab). The dessert for every set is the same which is nangka sago with coconut milk. Kinda interesting. As the food was kinda spicy, I ate until my cheeks were blushed while the others have no obvious facial sign showing their terlalu pedas feelings...they juz say it was very spicy. There was one coursemate who ate until sweat dripping down from his forehead...hahaha. After dinner, we took a group photo before going back home with our bellies full and hearts content...heheh...
