Greeting from Bali II

Nope, no babi guling as yet; no bebek bengil as well. But, I'm still good with my life saviour no. 1, the watermelon juice!


Yea, it's freaking hot today even though it did drizzle a little in the late afternoon. That was when the roomie and I parked ourselves in one of the many massage places along Jl Legian. The 1 hour Balinese massage was shioks.

Anyway, think I'm carbo-overloaded with the mee gorengs and Balinese fried rice and all, they are simply too yummy to resist! And the satays with the thick peanut sauce, sedap! Food is definitely great here, very affordable food if you know where to go.

Lesson 101: bargaining on the streets need more than skills and thick-skin.

Yea, it's important to bargain so not to be a carrot-head. Still, it's not good enough! You got to checkout the prices at the supermart first!

Blogging in Harris kuta now, great location!

Greetings from Bali!

It's already the second day that the roomie and I are in Seminyak, Bali!


While waiting for our breakfast, I grabbed a quick shot of the dining area of our resort, Artemis Villas. Nice and clean place as it has just been open for around 5 months. :) the staff are friendly and the location is good as well. Most importantly, there's free wifi, 5 thumbs up!



Anyway, the roomie and I went to ku de ta this afternoon and we stayed there for the entire afternoon till after our dinner. The sunset was beautiful! The place is a lil pricey though and by 530pm, the crowds are flooding in. A glimpse of the sunset from our table.



We'll be moving to Kuta tmr, more to come! Till then, ciaos!

Holidaying!

yea, im smelling Bali already!

will be away from the 9th-13th May and before you realize, im back to singapore again and will be sloggin my way thru 2010. hopefully, the roomie and I can plan for another getaway somewhere in sept?

was thinkin if i should just mention bout my holidays in Perth as i've gotten the photos from everyone, just that im lil' lazy to consolidate the ones i want. it's a bit too many pictures to be uploaded here. the keyword is still lazy, there's facebook anyway.

i brought mrs ong along on this trip. haha.


and of cos, my besties were there with me as well.



Perth was not quite the usual exciting venue, but the entire road trip was made real fun because of the friends!


till the next post peeps, it's already 430am!

Treats.

Reckon I'll just post some of the lovely sweet treats I had recently.

First up, the tiramisu from Spinelli!



Lovely display and looking absolutely yummilicious. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to savour it as the roomie bought this less than 2 hrs after I'd extracted my wisdom tooth. Sulks. Managed to had a lil bit of the dark chocolate though, real nice.

I heart dark chocolates! :)

Next up, the cinnamon melts from mcdees!


If you have not tried it, you're defintely missing out TOO MUCH! Even though mcdees have launched the melts for quite a while already, it wasn't eye catching enough for me until last night. Had a sudden craving to try the cinnamon melts and it's addictive!

Defintely going for more of the cinnamon melts! :)
