Christmas, Christmas EVERYWHERE!

Christmas is EVERYWHERE, except Malacca.  I mean it.

SO what do you do when Christmas is not coming to you?  You GO TO Christmas then!  And that's exactly what Godparents and I did!  We had a short escapade to KL just so that we can enjoy the full blast of this seasons greetings and we were NOT disappointed.

Woke up early that morning to get ready <3

#1  Weather was good.  I look good. (Just kidding) So everything's perfect >D

Before we went over to Pavillion where the heart of Christmas is, we went for lunch first and Godparents, like me, love all things Japanese so here's our feast!

#5  Just kidding.  But this is a PREVIEW of the VIEW <3  Just kidding, again.  I just wanted to be in the photo ;_;

Now THIS is the view that greeted us <3

#6 Amazing isn't it?  The amount of decorations that was up and the effort that was put in to pull off this magical view together with Christmas songs and wonderful Christmas Carols <3

#7  View of the centre of Pavillion from the 5th Floor <3

#8  Look how TALL that Christmas Tree is!

#9  And More!!!!  This is actually taken in the Fifth Floor!  Christmas Decorations are EVERYWHERE!

#10  Even drinking a cup of Double Chocolate Mint during Christmas taste extraordinarily good >D  It gives you a different sensation than any other celebrations all year round and I am not the only one celebrating in this crazily happy festive.  There's even a FLYING BABY!  I kid you not!

#11  Well, close enough <.>  The baby's way TOO CUTE that I've GOT to take a picture of it!  With or without it's consent ;_;  Dear cutie baby with Santa hairband, I hope you are in Santa's nice list this year so that you can get really nice presents from Santa <3

#12  ALL cookies and bread, Christmas style!  To be honest, I've never eaten a Gingerbread Cookie before so I have no idea how it tasted ._.  Fret not!  Godparents bought 1 each for me and Godbrother so after eating it, I will let you know whether its a yay or a nay! <3

#13 Fluffiest tiniest eyed bear around!  Don't be deceived by it's look!  This bear cost RM 119.90!!! SO BLOODEH EXPENSIVE!  But it IS cute and fluffy nontheless.  And small eyes.  Actually the reason I picked it up in the first place is because it has small eyes ._.  Like me.

#14  Cutest and weirdest notebooks lying around in Times Bookstore!  The first image are all animals themed notebook whereas the third image is a notebook cover made of Lego and you can even take the blue pieces lego off and make your own name or shape!

After all the walking, we headed to The Loaf for some light dinner <3

#15  Good ol' trusted steak sandwich and pasta <3 NOMSNOMSNOMS!

Well after dinner, you naturally have to has some desert to make the day perfect!

Heard of Long Cat before?  Yes?  Heard of Long MENU before?  NO right! LOL, this shop proves your wrong.

#16  Superbly Epic LONG Menu Lol!

#17  All things mango and papaya NOMSNOMSNOMS

#18  One of my favourite picture of the day.  It looks like it's snowing outside and all I need is a pair of scarfs and jacket to make this picture perfect!  Those aren't snow of course.  There's NEVER snow in Malaysia (how sad).  It's actually rain drops and rain stains on the glass but oh well, that's the closest we could ever get to 'snow'! <3

Last but not least, have a WONDERFUL, FROSTY Christmas this year! <3

Sushi Time!

Hey guys!  Last night few of us were suddenly craving for sushi and we immediately thought of Fong Sushi because of their signature sushi, which is fruit maki! (pictures below :D)  So without thinking, we went to Jonker on a Friday night and had to squeeze with all the other people there just to get to the sushi stall and wha-la!  It's not there >.>  They shifted place apparently so I had to call a friend to ask for direction cause I remembered her mentioning going to the place a week ago or so and yep, we manage to find the sushi SHOP (no longer stall) very easily!!

A simple 1,2,3 direction to those who are familiar with Jonker Street would be:

1.  Walk pass by Geographer (which is on your right).

2.  Walk pass by Jonker 88 (where they are famous for their cendol and asam laksa, which is on your left).

3.  Turn to your left at the immediate alley after passing by Jonker 88 and there it is, FONG SUSHI directly on your left <3  

Their proper business address would be:

Fong Sushi

5, Jalan Hang Lekiu

75200 Melaka

Tel:  06 - 281 9812

I remember they used to operate from this small stall nearly the end of Jonker Walk and now they have their own shop which is decorated with a very izakaya (Wikipedia: An izakaya (居酒屋^?) is a type of Japanese drinking establishment which also serves food to accompany the drinks. They are casual places for after-work drinking.) feel with soothing music :D

Enough talk and more pictures of the food in all its glory.

#1. Their signature sushi:  Fruit Maki

I would never have thought fruit and rice + seaweed would go together but what do you know?  They taste awesome and they come for only RM 4, so what are you waiting for?!

#2.  Free appetizer <3  (made a mental note to ask what this is the next time I go and then I will update this later on)

BEHOLD!

#3.  Sashimi Bento!! 

All the separate pictures taken are actually from ONE bento!  This reminds me of some sort of 6 in 1 BB Cream benefits cause their Sashimi Bento comes with:  Tekka & Salmon Sashimi, Age Toufu (which have a very interesting texture in a good way), Miso Soup, Reddish + Beetroot and also tender fried chicken for only.. RM 23!!!

So for all sushi lovers, I would definitely recommend this place for its friendly staff, nice atmosphere and also good food at a affordable price.

See you there :D
