Bento #35 - Fun Time with 'Kek Lapis'

Shoppingmum shows her new masterpiece - Stripe Cheese, coincidently, my colleague gave me kek lapis. Instead of making stripe cheese, which is more time consuming, I replaced it with kuih lapis. (^o^) But will definately give a try on it once I buy different colour cheese, I really love her idea. Thanks Shoppingmum!

New bento gadgets

Here are some of the new tools added to my collection. I need to do some online shopping, bento tools sell in 100Yen is limited, cute cartoon cutter still need to get from online store.



Bento #32 - Boy n Girl

Today's bento is pretty simple. Ingredient used is Gardiner's butter bread, cheese and nori. Isaac requested some garlic bread snack, I hide it under the bread.


Which one is boy and which one is girl? It seems like they are both brothers... hahaha...

Trip to Tanjung Sepat

Last Saturday was Birthday of SPB Yang di-Pertuan Agong, we have one day trip to Tanjung Sepat. This place is quite far from KL, it's about 1.5 hours drive. That place is famous with seafood Bakuteh and sold out very fast. To avoid disappointment, we set out at around 7:15am, just like working day (*_0).

Once we have our car parked at Auntie Amanda's colleague's (Ms. Ho) house, we went for the seafood bakuteh. There are two restaurant selling this dish, one visited by '阿贤' and the other one visited by '阿鸿'. We tried the 2nd one. According to Ms. Ho, both have thier own specialities. Maybe they over described it and I also put high expectation, so I am a bit disappointed. But overall, the taste is OK. If got chance, we will try the 1st restaurant.

Before we proceed to Ganoderma Lucidum farm (灵芝), we have a cup of coffee, pau and fish ball. Tg Sepat 'Pau' is well-known, that restaurant visited by Hong Kong famous eater- Tou Tou. We placed order after eating the 'Meat Pau','Mui Choy Pau' and 'Red Bean Pau'. The order queue was too long, we need to wait until 7pm, fortunately Ms. Ho can collect for us. Nothing much at Ganoderma Lucidum farm, but I still snap few photos of several types of 'mushroom'.




After GL farm, we went to a fishing village to get some fresh and cheap seafood. Some of us didn't buy any, so we have a walk behind people's house. It's Isaac first time visiting place like this, althought Sabak Bernam is also near to harbor. Lots of fishing boat anchor beside the old bridge and you can see plenty of colourful crabs, big and small, crawling on the mud.



Our next destination was Longan farm. Unfortunately the timing is not right, all longan sold out and new batch on longan was still on the way. So we didn't stop long there, just walked into around to see longan tree. Plucking longan is strictly prohibited.



Final destination was seafood lunch. While waiting for vacant table, Isaac and I have a walked at the jetty. The jetty is quite long, Isaac insisted to walk to the end. Few Malay people were fishing.



The trip is really tiring as we walked alot under the hot sun, but it is a nice outing.

Bento #30 - Ladybug

These two days Isaac is at DaYi house as ErYi is away for few days. Charmaine likes Isaac's bento, and I promised to make one for them. I made something more challenging as it is school holiday, I don't need to dress up Isaac in case running out of time. Again, this idea is from shoppingmum- Ladybug bento. I went to Popular warehouse sales at Summit USJ, so tried to get brocolli and mango from Cold Storage, unfortunately cannot find there.

I don't really satisfied with the end result. Again, I think I need a multiface nori cutter. Will try to get one as soon as possible. I am not good in arranging bento, need to put more effort in that. Hehehe... anyway, good try! (^0^)

Addition to my Bento stash

I have been looking for new house for my tools and finally I got this three storey house, with eight rooms and one master room... (haha... total partition :P) ... it is much more tidy and easy for me to use them.




Three packs of picks, two nori puncher and a set of animal cutter.
