An evening at Penang Hill Top

End of this week business trip in Penang. Spare a day for Gayoon who wants to visits heritage area in Georgetown. Our last stop is Penang hill before drive back to KL. I just came here to the hilltop last year, but walk further up after the Mosque and Bel Retino to the newly built Habitat and canopy, it's been a long while, probably 12 years ago. Though there are few new developments at the hilltop, the houses along the way still remain unchanged. Brings back a lots of good old memories.

1st Bon Odori in KL~ Bon Odori Summer Feast 2012, Publika

My first Bon-Odori in KL, it is also Publika's 1st Bon Odori Summer Fest 2012. It is an urban feel Bon-Odori and also the smallest size Bon-Odori I ever attend. There is another official Bon Odori festival similar to Penang held annually in Shah Alam. But I really lazy to travel that far with all the jam and risk of parking far away from event place. Therefore, this small scale Bon Odori in my new neighbourhood with many Japanese Expats is really a great event for me to join Bon Odori again after relocate to KL.    

Brunch with sis & family~ The Blue Cow Cafe, Plaza Damas

My sister & family are in town visiting us and stay-over for the weekend. It's my baby nephew Wayne first trip to KL. We went for a brunch at a nearby cafe in Plaza Damas, Hartamas Shopping Centre. It's our first time explore Plaza Damas after moved to Mont Kiara. Similar to Las Vacas, except it is non-halal - there's a butcher deli inside the cafe where you can get fresh quality Australian beef and lamb and local pork. Blue Cow is well-known with it's homemade sausages and burger patties. Their freshly homemade sausages is the reason why we were here. 

Lately I always indulge myself with a cup of cappuccino. We had the signature Big BBQ Breakfast, and Bacon and Cheese Salad. The Big BBQ Breakfast consists of 2 eggs (we asked for scramble egg), crispy bacon, handmade sausages, steak, grilled tomatoes, sauteed mushrooms, egg & hash brown, come with toast. While the Bacon and Cheese salad has crispy fried bacon and shredded cheese as topping besides the appetizing dressing. Sis & bro in law also have Big BBQ Breakfast. with extra extra eggs & toast, and a creamy mushroom soup to share with the kids. Nice brunch but pricey. It cost RM189.90 for 5 adults, 1 toddler & 1 baby. Still. it is worth for the yummy homemade fresh sausages and meats. Good service from the friendly staffs too!
