My friend, SR, an art collector.

His family recently organized khatam Quran for her little daughter. She is still in primary school.

For a khatam Quran, the event was quite elaborate.

SR commissioned me to be the official photographer. I had my nephew to assist with his Canon gears. It was great.

It took me quite a while to deliver the hard copy to the family – a series of albums.

They look like this.









I sent the invoice to SR. He was so happy with my work, he added RM500 as bonus. That made my day. Apparently the family love the albums and the photos.

I am happy.


And this how the albums were delivered.

My Fav Breakfast Joint



located in Desa Sri Hartamas


Since good Nasi Dagang is kinda hard to come by, for years I have been going to this place in my previous neighborhood for the best porridge in the world.

I can eat the porridge every morning, every morning – as Joey Tribiani would have put it.



I normally just go ans sit on my fav table facing the road, on the pavement. Uncle / Auntie will serve me the porridge. I don't have to ask. They know what I want, all the time.


a team - always


Unfortunately, one day a couple of months ago when I had this crave for auntie and uncle’s chicken porridge, I was told they have already retired. But I just saw them a couple of weeks before that.



I was quite sad, and upset (of course! It was almost my daily staple) because since then I have not found the replacement. Trust me I have tried a few but it just not palatable.


uncle is showing me the secret of his delicious porridge

say NO to MSG

say YES to corn on a cob



Do you know any good porridge place worth trying?

I wish I had my bike with me.





Indecisive about what to do to fill my my Sunday morning today.

DrK didn't confirm the ride up Genting Sempah - he has been traveling quite heavily nowadays.



Wanted to join the classic car boys for breakfast, I got the wrong Sunday of the month. David re-confirmed (1st Sunday of the month lah!)



I drove Brondong, with my pocket camera I trailed my favorite mountain biking trek at Bukit Kiara - on foot.



(mental note)
I should be riding Kiara, again - soon!



Sunrise / Sunset



Air pasang pagi



surut pukul 5

I get these views a few steps away from my hotel room - not every day, but still......

Jazz @ MPO

A good friend, JJ bought me tickets for the above performance.

The show was OK-lah. I almost fell asleep.

She can play the piano very well and the accompanying musicians were good.

However, when she started talking, she was very much into herself and her family and friends. I felt left out. So did my friends who went.

The coffee session at Chinoz after was a lot better.

Apparently an old flame was sitting at the next table. Didn't realize it until I was informed later.

Hmmmmm.... should still look good, as always.

My Comfort Food

When I don't feel well in Kuantan and don't feel like going out, I would order this from the room service.

Its chicken soup (chinese style) with ginseng.

I also normally ask for cili padi with kicap and some buns and butter.

Weird right? But it tastes so good!

And a mug of hot milo before bed.

Bella Italiana - 21



Went to Torino Auto again today - did plan but I happened to be in the neighborhood.

David briefed me the progress.


Still waiting for the engine to be rebuilt



New sets of pistons, timing chain


and new sets of valve


New lights, probably the very last set you can get from Jalan Ipoh.



The progress is very slow, but I am still happy. It takes time to restore this and David has been doing a good job not only restoring the engine, but also sourcing for parts.

Can't wait!

Can't wait!

Sepetang di Tanjung Lumpur


This is where my favorite Nasi Lemak Ikan Tongkol and Nasi Dagang in Kuantan.

It is a very small shop but the food is not fancy but authentic and cheap.

I even had business discussions there. Can be better than Hyatt Regency Club.

This is the view of the river... I took a short walk after a meal and a discussion with Mr Lee.
