Previously, on Operation Chiong Penang (P1 , 2009)….
P/S : Click image to zoom
It was 6.30AM in the morning and first thing I saw was this yolk, didn't pondered much…
Just wanna shot this wonderful Sun Rise @ Penang although is a bit hazy!
29.05.2010 – It's my birthday! It was 6.30am, I woke up and the rest were still asleep soundly. Beautiful saturday dawn I recalled, as the yolk rise from mist of haze. This thought came straight to me – open burning again! C.Y. called and surprised that he knew the way to Sg. Ara. Haha. Not bad for a Terengganese who stayed in Penang for more than 15 years. We went to Greenland earlier in the morning which later I found out the place happened to be somewhere around Cathedral of The Holy Spirit that I visited last year, how coincidence. Yeap, I've tried almost every food there last year and not too bad to try again on that particular morning.
We ordered a number of dishes, range from Nasi Lemak to Curry Noodle to Hor Fun and Hokkien Noodle. Gee, what a morning breakfast! It seemed heavy for consecutive days with C.Y haha. We had a little yab before heading back to my place and start off The SFW chiong operation.
C.Y scooped out a portion of it and making it incomplete. Hehe… but the portion is scanty thou.



As for the Hor Fun… this is definitely delicious. The starchy feel gives you a sensational taste of Asia!





Made by local chinese, I simply thought there's something missing in this dish! The belacan chili paste that is! The curry is lovely…



Famous in Penang but compared with the one I tried @ Sunshine Market which are very much alike our Sarawak's Laksa (see this), this one still … the taste of it thats what I meant.



I was full and do you think I can finish this? Neh… we shared hahhaha! The ingredients include cucumber, fried tofu, fried prawn clot., some bean sprout and sesame for garnishing… taste ODD!


What's heap with The SFW Operation Chiong Penang? Yeap, first thing is to have breakfast (Argh, secound round!!) with the gangs. Okay, I had Pasembur (Penang's Indian Rojak) which didn't turn out to be savouring, a few bites was enough and I was full. Ugh… I bloated hard!
Alright, the morning activities would be Butterfly Farm & Batu Ferringhi. From southern part of the island to the nothern part took approximately 40 mins. The ticketing booth doesn't seemed organize after all, some people just cut queues; okay? Perhaps am stuck with the rules of The Lion Isle that doesn't made me feel pleased of what I've seen.
I groped through the farm and humidity seemed high as I noticed water sprinkler were active all while. Butterflies were everywhere flapping it's wings in the air and pollinated flowers around. Besides butterflies, there's also some insect exhibit and artifacts on sale which seemed too exotic to be sold there.
At Butterfly Farm
Pretty unique to have a white spot at the center of the wings…
Earth Worms!!!! It's huge!
This stripe butterfly is pretty common but look at the details of it's wings… isn't it lovely?
The scorpions are poisonous creature. A stung from the tail will get you numb and paralyzed. Scorpion meat? hehehehe!
Pollination in progress
Now they need something sweet. That's banana (Dried out)
Reminds me of someone!
This piece is is one of my favorite and lucky shot that was.
Another type of common butterfly seen. I did try to capture it with my bare hands.. it's easy actually… What I don't like are those powdery substance…
Landing safe on the leaf..
Okay… time for some reviews!!! What do you think of this huge bug?
Setting up camera on the sandy shores ain't easy!
You just have to do this again… LOL! After some apple photo booth prank!
Emo again! LOL!
Here comes the drill…. Chinese Ducking Photographer!
ahahahaha! Sheet am wearing shoes…
Bikini Inspector on duty! Beach was almost deserted on that day!
Oh yeah!
Stomach kena bump! "Ugh! Sakit!"
Crazy siao kiaz @ Mantis Fist
Some photoshop here
Okay.. here's the proper one for the couples!
I hate crows but their father looks smooth!
After the butterfly farm, we check out Batu Ferringhi Beach, just in front of Hard Rock Hotel. Okay, we had a whimsical footage here which am yet to compile but will be, pretty soon. We hang out at the place for an hour before heading back to the condo, had KFC (finger lickin' good – oh yeah), clean up ourself and head for weekend mass at Cathedral of The Holy Spirit (at Greenland). Weird, we encountered some lady who likes to bump on people randomly, and she wore a dashing silky dress to mass, oh dear! After mass, we head to Queensbay Mall for dinner – TGI Fridays. okay here's the funny part….
The day was almost over, and the gangs were behaving rather escentric, not that am not aware of, all 3 of them had forgotten something which in my heart was hinting an emptiness or the sort; something was missing – yes, that word : Happy Birthday. They seemed to squint their eyes randomly, some sort of message passing by that am not aware of, some sort of secret that is unknown to me; in other words, I don't know what are they up to. So, we're at the restaurant and being placed somewhere not so conspicious to the crowd (which is good for me) where Mike hinted, and complaint about the seating placement. I almost burst out with laughters! I thought somethings up in this restaurant pretty soon. We ordered our dish n' platters and The Jack Daniel's Salmon I ordered taste really good no doubt about that. We yab and took photos and later, finished up our dishes. Again, they have this odd expressions on their faces. Suddenly I heard 'Happy Birthday' song sung far away from our table. TGIF crew was dramatically singing and clapping for other birthday celebrants. Gab said, "Wow, so many birthdays today…" I was pretenuous that nothing ever happened and never heard of what I've just heard LOL….
Adrian & Mike decided to go to the washroom together which left me & Gab there on the seats. I thought they're up to something… possibly they might have gone to remind the crews or something. See? Predictions made right! That's my secret reviewed today! Kekkeeke!!!!! They came back so I stood up and yearn for a relief after such heavy meal and decided to ask for the bill. They stopped me immediately and told me to stay for a while!! Okay… I knew somethings up. Possibly it's gonna be my turn. LOL!
In fact, the crew approached me, 6 of them if I recalled correctly. They called me to stand on my seat and shouted out loud
"Kumar, today is my Birthday"…
My mind was like… kNN… So embarassing!!! Okay, that was a surprise! haha! I didn't dare to shout out loud as it'll attract audiences but what could I do to end such joke? I still have to shout out indeliberately! Okay, I took it as a fun filled ones, no oblique!
I made a wish and the cake suddenly moved far away off me which the staff claimed am supposed to blow that cake 3 feet away from my mouth (obviously it's another SFW request). I blew hard and whalla…. Candle blown but waiter's hand was full of my saliva. hahahahahahahahaaha! He was "mad" but I appologized.. he accepted hahaha.
See? Iphone Geek! Android Geek!
Celakaz Mike!
Taste fine for me but fried Mozzarella? hmmmm!!!!




Like any other chicken wing you can find around




Fridays Three For all… that Loaded Potato Skin taste heavenly! Comes along with tartar sauce and cream




Adrian had this Key West Grouper as main course!





Mike had Southwest Mac & Cheese




Gab had Chicken & Shrimp Diablo! Wah not bad huh!





I had this Jack Daniel's Salmon… gone wild with the sauce!





My Birthday cake LOL!!!



Thanks Mike… he bought this in Melaka!
Thanks guys for the treat and celebrations! Can't be more juvenile than this heh? I thought it was cake smacking or something hahah. Sort of like a daydreamer! Well, memorable 27th birthday that was. Up next would be Adrian's @ OCKL, we're gonna accertain that!!!!!!! I was supposed to being the gang for Hagaan Daaz treat but too bad it closed earlier so maybr OCKL then ^_^"
