Be The Simple 'You'

Date : 10th Jan 10
Time : 9pm
Venue : Restaurant Ho Boh


Restaurant Ho Boh is a Hakka dishes restaurant.
Some of you might know some of you might not.

Still remember i saw the article bout this restaurant is 2 years ago.
I know Hakka dishes quite well cause my mom is Hakka.
They have shop at KL and Taipan as well.
The one i have a try is located at Taipan. =)

If you are chinese, for sure you will know after give birth there is a dish use 'chinese wine' cook with ginger and chicken.
The smell if really very nice and tasty!
Besides that, Hakka famous with a kind of Yam kuih.

Is salty dish, cook with black fungus, dry prawn, garlic, fried onion and etc...

The decoration of Restaurant Ho Boh is very simple and old style.
If you live in wooden house village before, then you will definately know what i try to say.
The wooden cupboard with net door to keep bowl, plates, spoons, chopsticks and etc.
All the wooden furniture and the simple and village feel.

It brings you another kind of feel and you can experience what is a village life.

Simple but happy. Not rich but yet to survive. =)
Village life always the best because all the villages are very easy to satisfy of their life.
At least they are happy and have a warm family compare to who stay in city always need to work for money and live in a lonely big house.

As mentioned, i ordered 3 simple dishes.

Taufu with pork, 'chinese wine' chicken & fried meatball - the one reminds me of all my childhood memories with family.
My mom always like to made fried meatball when me & my brother still in primary school.

We don't have our own house, we rent a small 'rumah panjang' with RM50.
Our life is just enough for spend, simple but we happy. =)
Mom work as promoter, father is a sawmill who always will take care the house and take some woods from factory and make us writting desks, cupboard, chair and etc...
Our transport only motorbike, bicycle and of cause transport number eleven. (Jalan Kaki, the 2 legs look like eleven, the number)

Long time i never had this dish already.
Father has gone to heaven and mom most propably forgot she like to make this dish last time.

Especially Chinese New Year Eve.
I was so naughty last time, refuse to eat due to always get to eat.
Now.. at the moment i saw it on menu,
only i notice long long long time ago... i had this dish before..
When i have my first bite,
the feeling is really unexplainable and tears is nearly drop. =)
How much i miss it =)
Not only the taste but the memories.

Alot of us has forgot what we have last time,
but it might be beautiful and meaningful.
Sometimes we are just busy of our life and forget about the simple thing.
Sometimes we thought something is not important,
but maybe 10 years later, you want to see/touch/feel it again,
is really impossible.
Catch what you have, appreciate what you get.
You need to work hard for your future,
but never ever forget about the simple & happy 'you' in past. =)

My recent lifestyle...

Hmm.... look at the clock, the time is 6:42am now..
What are you doing? Stupid question... Of course sleeping like piggy now lo !!
Why am i still awake??
Sleepless night? Just back from clubbing? Just finish my drama Series?
Non as above.
Today is just a really tired and sleepy day, but .. surprisingly i still awake at this time.
Not sure is happy or sad.
Happy?? Course proof that i still 'young'. Which all the ladies so sensitive about.
Sad?? Got time to sleep but don't sleep. Wrinkles and eye bags will stick to me for a long long long time.. haiz...

Just finish uploading some new stock to my blogshop, www.mywondermall.com
Were slow down last year, hehe... bit over act.. just last month la.. Dec 09... now is Jan 10 dy.. Consider last year lo. =P
Alot of my customer has been asking me when got new stock. Really so so so sorry.
Was thinking of my own design too which i going to try and sew on this long holiday.
At the same time, have checked my full time job email and reply some urgent email.
Done everything and now checking around me and writting my blog..
Guess what i see ....

My 2 furries... Fei po (the bigger one) & Notty po (smaller one) sleeping like a really dead pig on my blanket !!!
Fei po always more 'human' style and not so lady. Dorothy(notty po) always have the cat personality, stay glamour, look lady and never have those ugly picture. She know how important her outlook and image tho. hehehe....




Sometimes i was really happy when see both of them. Even i stress of my work, my life or there are things in my mind .. both of them just like to make drama and chasing around... their fool and stupid actions sometimes really make me laugh like hell. I love them so much. Cant imagine one day if they leave me what will i feel. I was so scare of 'that day' coming... Is happy and sad later if you got a lovely pet. They always leave us one day and we will be very very upset that time.

Hmm... is 7am now... should go for dim sum or sleep?
Long time don't have this kind of life..
I believe most of you will do the same thing as me during CNY right? =)
I will still do for this coming CNY !! kekeke....
Only once a year.. have to enjoy bit...
CNY is just around the corner... about a month leave for preparation only.
Hopes that i got bonus and increment this year. *Pray super super hard
For whoever not aware CNY is just at the corner, remember to plan your CNY shopping now ya.
Shopping malls will be very very peak soon...
Enjoy shopping !!!
May all of us get bonus bonus bonus !!!
