Mitsubishi Lancer became Proton Inspira, Toyota Camry becomes?

Inspira came from Lancer is not anything new. 


Nor is the fact that you see a Proton Wira bearing the Mitsubishi badge. I always find it very discomforting when I see those Wira being modded and then they simply removed the Proton emblem and replaces it with Mitsubishi. 

Now, imagine these two scenarios
A) Taking a piece of shit and covering it in Gold
B) Taking a gold brick and covering it with Shit

I would usually say (A) goes to those people who put on those Mitsu badge over their proton.
But I have always thought why no one did the other way around, especially when the Inspira was launched, I thought will there be any Lancer or Evo X owner who put on a proton badge over their Mitsu. Now that will be (B).

Sadly, or perhaps lucky, I never found anyone doing that. But the same cant be said for the Toyota Camry. Picture as belows.


Will you do that to your car? Imagine Ferrari puts on the Perodua badge and fits the KANCIL word at the rear.

Air Asia Crashed?

'Now everyone can fly'


The above line has been used vigorously, and just by hearing it, you will know that it is Air Asia. 

That aside, I believe many has been boarding Air Asia recently especially for the year end trip, christmas, balik kampung, (my cousin's wedding), and soon to come CNY. This may come to a shocking news to many especially to those who frequently travel, the images of a crashed Air Asia. Rumours has it that it happen in Kuching, so now Elmo might have more of a shock, especially since she just came back from Kuching not too long ago, and going again end of this month.

So enough talk and type, below is the one and only picture I have, lazy to search, lazy to verify whether this is a true thing or just photochopped.


A funny thing which I did manage to read was that instead of Air Asia's NOW EVERYONE CAN FLY, some netizens has joke on it and said 'NOW EVERYONE CAN CRASH'
 
Just to note, this just might be another accident like the recent bus crashes, but let just hope this is the last accident for the year 2011! And just so you know, don't blame Air Asia, cause Tony is not the one piloting you know. LOL

Long long ago, in going to T. Sepat

Lazy to write up, so mainly short description and lots of pictures.

Look at that pineapple, I don't really like to eat pineapple, other than as a supplement to other food, but this one here got me started (for awhile that is)



Notice how 'BIG' this pineapple is.





They even have pineapple chilli sauce

Saw this little lion (shih tzu) in Ganofarm


Then we went to Hai Yew Heng, the famous pau in Kuala Langat, or known as 'TANJUNG SEPAT PAU'







Oh, notice the number on the right, to those who can't read chinese, the words means Malacca, and that particular reflects my uncle.Ah Nam Q, he source his pau here, and sells it along with his delicious fish ball soup and some yong tau fu, at night, he sells ikan bakar with two options, nyonya or sambal sauce.

'KWO ZHA B COFFEE' near the tanjung sepat pau






Bought one each, and loved them

I don't know why, but this particular guys keep trying to play with me.

And soon this kitten too










My favourite thing to look for now, available in Morib, loved it and love it still.

F&B: [COMPLAIN] Kenny

Recently been dining out a lot. And this also happened recently which is the service is getting lousier as the days go by, well, this excludes those really nice dining places like tony and etc. But I mean Pizza Hut and Kenny, they also suppose to have great floor staff. You can check the PIZZA rant if you want, but this is about KENNY. 

I mean intial service was good, though this time we weren't given a choice of seat, we wanted 'that' clean side table, instead we were brought to the middle table, well, no complaints. The real issue arise when I noticed the table opposite of us receive their Muffin after they almost finish their plates, and the Muffin only arrive after the soup. Well, I just thought maybe they requested for the muffin to come in like that. But on our side, imagine what we were served first, NOT MUFFIN, NOT DRINKS, its the main course that came first. Then we asked where are our drinks and muffin, hence we had to wait, though not long, but enough for the not hot meal to turn even cooler. Now I was thinking is there much difference from those Ayamas or those chicken sold at Jusco. 

Well, other things were all below average, but at least they were a lot better than PIZZA HUT!

I know I have been complaining a lot, but at least don't you think we deserve a better service when we are paying that much, heck, I even get my drinks first when I eat at hawker center, sometimes even if I opt for the economy rice, the drinks will be there before me getting to the table.

F&B: [COMPLAIN] Pizza Hut

Well, me and Elmo likes to dine in Pizza Hut, my meal always vary from salad to pizza to pasta. But faithful Elmo only orders Pizza, occasionally pasta.We dine at Pizza Hut at least once a fortnight, but its more to like once or twice in a week. So the nearest and most convenient outlet is the one in Giant Kinrara, which is not too far from BUKIT JALIL POLICE STATION, if you know where the Mercedes Benz in Kinrara, or the Indian Temple, its around that area, you can't miss this Giant, its a 'giant'.

Well, the issue is that we have been eating here for like two months, meaning our visits are totaling up to 10 visits, until we can even recognize the floor staff.


Well, there shouldn't be much of a problem since Pizza Hut is a chain and the service should be more or less the same as other outlets, and the services we receive should be the same. Having a regular patron of PIZZA HUT since we were in MMU, we went to so many outlets before, nearly every Pizza Hut outlet in Malacca, the one in Port Dickson, Klang Valley etc. We came to understanding that not all outlet has the same quality of food, example is that Pizza Hut in Aeon (Jusco) Equine Park has the worst Pasta, but the one outlet in Malacca (now closed) serves the best pasta! The taste is just perfect and we like the meatball, there are meatball!!! But the one in Equine Park don't serve with meatballs, even after we made a complain to the floor staff. Well although they serve terrible pasta, at least their service is good and the salad bar is always filled.

Now the main purpose of this PIZZA HUT post is to rant about the outlet in Giant Kinrara. I have yet to see more than 4 floor staff on the night shift (we always dine there for dinner), its usually the Indian lady (who seems qualified to be Manager), the malay guy, and two Bangla (where one always goes missing and the other one handles problems, when order screw up, they send the Bangla to talk, not cause he is tough, but mainly for the communication barrier.). They are virtually understaffed, I've never experienced a clean table, they never have enough time to clean up, although the only good part is that we only need to sit for about 2-5 minutes before we are given the menu and wait another few minutes when we signal them for order. We grew accustomed to it already.

But yesterday, was the limit, I mean this is not the first time it happened, I got my breadsticks last, after almost finishing up my PIZZA!! And you guess what happened to the soup, Elmo finished hers, and mine became cold, we like to dip the breadsticks into the hot soup! We even had to hunt for sauces in the outlet, and some of the patrons are racing with each other to get to that bottle of Tabasco! Our pizza was also charred, not just a little, I can even taste it, even the onion and chicken was kind of black already. And no, its not the sauce, its burnt and I can be sure of it, as I always did that while cooking myself. I found a strand of hair on my slice of Pizza, its way too long to be my hair, and its way too short to be Elmo's. The table around us are all empty, not because there are no customers, but its due to the lack of clean table, I can still see the leftover pasta and the table next to us. There were also complain from the other patrons, and how they (Pizza Hut's floor staff) settle it, send the Bangla and give him a menu, the one responsible will be charged with cleaning the table while being out of view. All I remember was the war was won by the patron and I saw the Bangla took back one of their pizza.

I need to justify, sometimes its not just the floor staff at fault, sometimes the kitchen staff is at responsibility, we even faced getting wrong pizza (kitchen mistake, not wrong table mistake), our pizza somehow ended up missing and had to wait more than 40 minutes. I mean if floor staff key in the order, the kitchen staff should just follow it, and they shouldn't miss a thing, like our late breadsticks for example. 

I guess I have written too much text, so lets just let bygone be bygones.

F&B: [ITALIAN] Italian Cone Pizza Part 2

The following pics are from the page next to the comic. I will wrap things up with this post (hopefully)
If you want to read part 1, its at ITALIAN CONE PIZZA 1

 Well, I guess I am the only person with a weird habit of reading through all these things, anyway


 




The following is the menu

This is what's so special the ITALIAN CONE PIZZA 

The Italian Cone Pizza's available dimension. 




The SAUCES! I love TABASCO  

Elmo's Spaghetti thing, forgot what was it, I think should be Carborana. 

This is my Cone Pizza, Fiery something. 

Yeah, I know its small, but if you are not that hungry, its actually quite nice, I wasn't hungry at all that time, was just thinking of snacking, and this was just the perfect one. 


Please, I know my skills suck, but hey, I am no dedicated food blogger with proper camera. All I have is HP. 

One of the 2 side dish, I ordered this so everyone can enjoy it as well. 

This is another I enjoyed, meatball!

The place.

The reason why its empty was because its late, we were the last customer to leave, not long after snapping this pic, the staffs are starting to keep all the sauces. 

Long post but had to finish this ITALIAN CONE PIZZA post.
