Random Pictures taking at Papan
After breakfast in Pusing, we drove to Papan to visit its waterfall...unfortunately it was shut! That sounded so ridiculous to have a waterfall that is shut on weekends. So we drove back to Papan town to shoot some abandoned buildings instead. Here are some random pictures....
Papan Kindergarten
Abandoned Shop Lots and residences
Praying Grounds but many didn't realized and stepped on the wooden boards
Years of neglect...over-runned with bushes - Side View
Front View
Haunted House's windows?
Gloomy Staircase
Broken pillar but still standing strong...
It was a lovely trip shooting so many street shots....

Breakfast at Pusing Town
Last Weekend, Hunny and I met up with the SA group for a short trip to Papan (A small town in Perak) Herbal Garden and Waterfall Park. We met up first in Pusing (3 KM from Papan) to have breakfast first. Pusing is well known for their roast pork curry noodles but unfortunately we reached there late and had their normal fare instead. According to the rest who reached earlier, the roast pork was divine and their crackling skin was the BEST..
Here's what Hunny had....Chicken Feet Curry Wantan Noodles
Here's What I had...Wantan Mee with Char Siu and Dumplings. The char siu was juicy and tender without being too fatty...
A closer look....yummy...
Here's what we shared....Yong Tau Foo (abt 6 pieces)
The noodles were really yummy...no taste of alkaline in it. Alkaline is added to the noodles dough to make it have the "bite" but in this case, not only that we couldn't detect the tell tale alkaline taste, the noodles had that "bite" to it.
The total bill only came up to about RM12 plus 2 chinese teas...absolutely yummy and CHEAP!

Bunny Eats Royal Purple "Caviar Grade" Fruits
I normally buy my fruits from the Pasar Malam (or night markets) but eversince my bag got snatched on my way home last Feb, I stopped going to Pasar Malam on my own. Then, I discovered MBC Fruit Trading outlets at the KLCC and KL Sentral outlets. They supply A to B grade fruits and are pricier than the other places. So I bought my fruits from them...I really enjoyed my mango season with them and now it's grapes and plums and nectarine season.
However, last night I bought some fruits from them and to my horror...3 small bunches of grapes and 4 plums cost me RM18.20!!! So pricey!! That's why I named this post as "Caviar Grade" Fruits...I didn't know till reach the cashier because the weighing scales are at the cashier and they key in the cash registar right after they weigh which is so smart of them. Yes..they were sweet but..but..not worth it. I think I will have to go back to Pasar Malam grade fruits again.
See!!! So $$$$$!!!! RM10!!!!
Champagne Grapes - tiny little morsels with sweet jelly like flesh. My 1st time eating and I will have to say that they will taste great if eating while drinking champagne.
The size of the grapes bunch as compared to my mobile phone
The size of the grapes bunch as compared to my book discount card
Sugar Plums are my favorite variety of plums as they are really sweet....yummy...but so $$$...RM8.23 (rounded to RM8.20)
4 yummy sweet juicy plums for RM8.20!!! That's like RM2.05 each...really luxury price!
This is RM18.20 worth of purple "caviar grade" fruits!!!!
This was my healthy breakfast which I ate on an empty tummy at 8.30am today and it lasted me till 11am....expensive...now must ubah gaya hidup (change my lifestyle)
While eating...I felt so guilty while thinking of my dog, Arwen, that I also bought her this last night and no need to divide any of the pieces...I will let her have a whole piece for herself...This is Arwen's favourite...
