An Evening With Kway Teow For Two

By

26th of March 2009 (Thursday)

Assalamualaikum, and a very good day to you all, guys.

We meet again in my next post. Thank you for keep reading my posts. I really appreciate you all.


On 26th of March (Thursday), the same day,after I had finished with my driving-test, I had a ''date'' with my friend in the evening. She is actually a counselor in the school of mine.
We went to one of the famous "kway teow kerang (cockles)" stalls, located in Simpang Kuala, ermm... I think. I don't know the actual name of the location... haha. Because, she was the one who drove me there.

The fried "kway teow kerang" was really nice and delicious that I could eat it more than one dish. But, I would not do that and please don't do that if it is not necessary (not nice). Like some people said, "...makan sebelum lapar, berhenti sebelum kenyang...". This statement is true though.

Do you know what is kway teow? Kway teow literally "flat noodles" is a popular noodle in Malaysia and Singapore. This noodle is best served as char kway teow, literally "fried flat noodles". But in Malaysia, char kway teow is served as soaked fried kway teow. While, fried kway teow is another dish that is served in dried one. But actually, char kway teow means fried kway teow.

The term "Char kway teow" is a transliteration of the Chinese characters "炒粿條", based on the Min Nan spoken variation of the Chinese language. More precisely, "炒粿條" is pronounced as chhá-kóe-tiâu in Min Nan, and cháo guǒtiáo in Mandarin. (credited to Wikipedia)

But, as an advice, please don't take fried kway teow too often. Because, it has a reputation of being unhealthy due to its high saturated fat content.

Wah! Dah lari tajuk ni... hehe. Sorry.

All in all, I really had a good time with her. She is such a pleasant woman, who really cares about others, and we always share stories to each other. She is also such a good listener. Thank you so much, may Allah bless you always.

I hope this moment will come again, even though tomorrow will never be the same again as today. This memory will always stay in my heart. (*^_^*)

Good day, bubbye.

Tragedy: 14th of May 2011

By
Salam. On 14th of May 2011, I was planning to try to bake a cake, myself. So, I had looked up on the internet, to find a recipe. I had decided to try Lemon Cake, by Gia da, one of t he famous chef celebrities. I had printed the recipe. But, in this house... there were no much of th e ingredients needed. So, I had to go the nearest grocery shop. Unfortunately, no ingredients which are needed sold there. I had to find it somewhere else. While on my way to the second grocery shop, I was riding a scooter. There was a bus which suddenly overtook me. I was really surprised, and braked with sudden without noticing sands on the road. I'd lost control of my scooter, and fell down. I broke my hand, and there were so many wounds all over my body. Luckily, my helmet were not took off. So, no head injury. Alhamdulillah. I was brought to the hospital for treatment by an ambulance. I was diagnosed closed distal end left radius and closed fracture left ulnar styloid. Cast was applied for 3 wee...

When Hospitality Fails the Basics: A Guest’s Quiet Reflection

By
What does it take to turn a good stay into a great one?     For many business travellers, the answer isn’t grand lobbies, luxurious bedsheets, or buffet breakfasts. It’s the little things—the seamless service, the small courtesies, and above all, the peace of mind that everything has been thoughtfully handled. But what happens when even the basics fail? Recently, I had the chance to travel for work and stayed at a well-rated hotel, part of a professional arrangement involving multiple rooms. While the setting was promising, my experience reminded me how crucial it is for hospitality providers to walk the talk—especially in an industry that thrives on trust, service, and efficiency. Where It Started: The Missing Essentials: After a long drive and a busy day, all I hoped for was a calm check-in and a room stocked with basic necessities. To my surprise, the room was missing even bottled drinking water. I had to request it—twice. The staff eventually complied, but not without maki...

Perfect, Is It A Compulsion To Counsel Others?

By
A few months ago, the author talked to one of his acquaintances about advising others. For instance, counseling others regarding solah. Nevertheless, the acquaintance said to the author that if he was in the author's shoes, he would not dare enough to do so because of imperfection. In the author's point of view, lacking does not mean that we can't counsel others towards betterment and virtue. The author asked for opinions from three ustaz. The first opinion from Ustaz Supani, stated: "That wasn't right. We advice others when we see they wrong-do, while when they saw our wrongdoings, they will have to counsel us. That was Prophet's command."   The second opinion from Ustaz Saidi Adnan, stated: "Prophet's hadith stated that we need to counsel others' wrongdoings. This hadith is general and it is not specified to those who are perfect only. If we saw wrongdoings, it will be a necessity to comment with hikmah." The third opini...
