My Merdeka fishing trip

So we decided to head back to Pg last week for the Medeka long weekend.
The gals are having a gathering and ah shing is going to be there too !
boy, I have not seen that 'chabor' for ages.

We had our lunch at Coffee Island along Gurney Drive and moved on to Dome Cafe @ Gurney Plaza for some snack and loads of juicy updates along the way. TCS did very well for being a chimui himself for the day.

Later that night, we went out for dinner and mum, dad and meng at BlueReef. A nice cozy little restaurant newly opened by my good neighbour.
Mom likes the food while dad just go with flow.....
I thought I give it a try since it's my neighbour's restaurant and meng helped to design their logo and mom said it's nice and it's just down the hill from our house.

Here's how it look like.....

I was a little suprised when meng said we need a booking cos it's usually full during the weekend. Lucky we did. After we sat down, customers kept coming in and poor neighbour, he had to turned down at least 2 groups of them.
You may want to try them out, it's located at Casa Permai 2. Mom especially likes their
fish & chips. And yes, their portions are big too. And no, I don't get a free meal for promoting them. :P


Anyway, lets move on to my other "fish" stories.

Dad asked us out for a fishing trip with his 2 friends from Holland. I remembered attending their Christmas dinner at their apartment when I was very little.

That morning, it rained and the sea was rough with big waves. I wasn't really bothered cos I loved the ocean so much and this offered me a great escape from the city life.
We caught loads of fishes that day !


I caught 1 and seconds later TCS caught another one ! It's a "Helicopter" fish

Cos this fish can stand like this and it looks like a helicopter. Got pouty lips......nice !

Posing with my 2 helicoper fishes.

TCS happy holding the puffer fish. Look at it's teeth.
Fugu anyone ?????



Arrived at the beach for barbeque.

As you can see, these are the "siputs" I digged out from the sand just seconds ago and straight to the bbq grill. It doesn't get any fresher than this.


Less than 1 minute later, my "siput" has opened up almost ready to be served.



Lunch is finally served. Fresh barbequed "siput" with a dash of soy sauce.....
simply delicious !
