Yaki Yaki Dinner

WEll, I'm sure everyone heard of yaki yaki. the newly open Japanese BBQ Buffet Restaurant somewhere near Low Yat Kl. Yes, that's the one right beside of Low Yat.
So far any one patrol there before? If yes, kindly join me for the gossiping!!!

WE reached there at around 7pm which we suppose to reach there by 6.30pm. We called and called to inform them that we are not able to make it on time but was failed to inform them. Ended up we stop calling them and go there straight. Once we reached there, we realised that there are tons of call ringing here and there and they do not even bother to pick up altho there are 3 people working there in the registration and payment counter!

No wonder there is no answered from them. We hafta pay 1st before we proceed and I asked them why is this culture so different from the rest. (Arha they got motive 1..., what's the motiveS??.)

WE were given a table number and we gotta find it ourselves! The area are not very small so it takes us some time to find for the table. After that, I proceed straight to the Oyster corner. But up to my disappointment, the oyster are not so FRESh and the worst are..there are no more LEMON left. They said opps Sorry madam, the lemon are out of stock now! Wtf...it's still early for the dinner buffet as the dinner buffet start at 6pm. Then it's okay, we still grab the oyster altho there is no lemon left. I guess they might not giving out those lemon as there will be alot of people who dare not take oyster without the lemon. Still oyster tempted me too much and i took 8 altogether. Eat all those 8 oyster without the lemon. First few was fine but towards the last few, it have kind of fishy taste already..im suspecting its not cold enough to keep it fresh as they did not put it in the fridge. They just leave all of the oyster that's going to be served for that day itself on the pantry with some ice on it. That's the way they reserve the oyster for the dinner and supper session.


Move on....we ordered 8 cawan moshi as 8 of us are there. But they served only 6 as they said the cawan moshi are out of stock. No more left. Again?? Never mind. Then we go to the fried section to order some tempura. Wow...tempura and the other fried food looks so yummy and there come my thought for SOFT SHELL CRAB. emmm...yummy yummy....
so when I asked for that, they were saying, ops sorry MADAM, that one is out of stock at the moment. WTF....everything was out of stock. Can't they stock up?
Hey come on we are paying a full price buffet dinner, with the 50% discount for new opening. Is that your tactics of doing business and getting more businesses? I doubt!!!!

I'm wondering whether how long this Restaurant can last, six months? 1 year? 2 years? Let's see!!!

Let's see the pictures of the day!!

Our table- No. 22


Oyster of the day (eat halfway only remember to snap some pics)


The so called cawan Moshi


The mixture of japanese sushi


Guess what's this? Lamp chop with dried fried oyster


the so "balance" Coconut drink


Fresh Scallop with butter on top---for grille


Tempura (very little tempura were being served)



Well overall comment...the food sucks. the service sucks, and its not worth for money at all. I shall recommend u what so called Real Japanese buffet in the future! This is because the food that they served is not fully on Japanese food and most of it are a mixture of cuisine (malay, western, chinese) with very very little variet for each , and also low quality of food!

Last 2 days in IT Company

Well, left 2 days in my current company.
WHat I feel unbearable the most? Guess guess...
It's my company laptop! that was the Main thing that I missed.THis laptop has been following me here and there, alwiz there to accompany me when I'm lonely, able to play music to soothe my mind when I'm pressured, able to chit chat online where ever I wish with my sis's broadband, able to let me play facebook and write blog here. I'm sure in the future I might not be as flexible anymore. New company is not going to give me a laptop. Thinking of getting one for myself but I was juz too broke to get myself one. What a pity!! Spent too much all these days in KL.

Well, what is my opinion for my current company?
one word--stingy!
Why did I said so? There are alot of factors that involves.
1st-- there wont be any increment after your probation ( if got also maybe 3-5 yrs, they will slightly give you really little bit, as What i Heard from ex-colleague who worked for 8 yrs there)

2nd- Some may not even get increment once confirmed. Well this slightly affect which department u r in. (if u r in a spent money dept, for sure u wont b getting any)

3rd- The commission scheme has never be there, there is no guarantee on how much you are entitled to even though they told u it's actually 2% from GP. This will never be TRUE as U do not have black and white to support what they have told U!

4th- When the time u are asking for your commission, there will be alot of things that they need to take into consideration when they want to calculate your commission. eg: tel bills, any postage involve, period of getting the sales by counting on ur number of email u have blasted and period of time for u to get the deal, any fax involve? They need to calculate that properly!!

5th- Stingy of hiring more people for the specific job and order/ push the work load to the existing staff they have. Some may not even have enough time to perform new stuff. They would not hire/ replace any position once one's resign but creating more different position for different scope of work. THis is their culture! sorry to say that we do not have work scope at allll!!

Well, that's about the stinginess of them. There are stil alot but what I wish to emphasize here was....For a company to success, first they must really believe that we are the main source to help them to growth. Without us, without them today. Therefore, every company must appreciate their staff in order to be success! Please don't expect every staff have to be one kicks all to make your company growth. That will be the ever worst thought for most of the chinaman company had. So do you wish to be in tis kind of chinaman company? Ask yourself!!

FInally!!!!

FInally, the opportunity that I'd looking forward has come to me! I'd been waited for months for this. It is indeed a very happy moment. I'm so thrilled when I got to find out that I'm actually wanted from a company. It's indeed a very happy and wonderful news for me.

Never come to my expectation that I was being employed by this company. Well, I attended the interview this week and was being employed by the next early morning. I had collected my offer letter from the company this early morning. Well, it's a 150+ people company, not too big, not too small.However, they still provide those normal benefits as requested by our Labor Law.

Well, juz to drop by here to share my happiness. This happiness cannot be buy with money seriously. Thank God for everything. Without you, I won't be here enjoying at the moment. Thank you.

Ivan's 21st Birthday!!

well, here's the blog as mentioned in the previous blog! It's regarding Ivan...my 2nd younger brother! WHy blog on him?? Well, it was his birthday on the 3rd of April but we couldn't manage to celebrate HiS 21st birthday as 4th April got a test! SO we delayed till 4th April itself.

Previously wanna bring him for a treat in TGI Friday but got rejected by him over SMS...and after that he was asking me to treat him TGI couple of times. I did not bring him on purpose till his birthday. I know if we celebrate in TGI Friday, the celebration would turn up to be the most memorable ones as I encountered that before in The Curve Outlet. it was indeed very embarrased if I were to be asked to do so...So what Ivan got on that day??? Let's read on to find oUt!!!

Irish, Alex and I celebrate his birthday in TGI Friday, Sunway outlet. Well, it may not as happening as in the Curve's outlet but still the outcome was good. We have ordered 2 sets of set meals:-


1) Fried Mac & Cheese & Boneless wing as Appetizers
















AND

2) Sizzling Chicken & Cheese, Tuscan Chicken Melt as Entrees





AND

3) a FOC Mocha Mud Pie AND 4 glasses of refillable Ice Lemon Tea.



The food are delicious but pictures taken on that day are still in the camera. WIll upload the photo soon after I got the cable! Back to the story...Yes celebration. What TGI's staff did to Ivan? Well a group of 4-5 staff came forward and requested Ivan to stand on the chair but was rejected by him due to his height! If he were to stand up, I think TGI Management might need him to pay for the renovation of breaking their ceiling!! What he was asked to take? haha...a bottle of Heienz Chili Sauce up in the air! He looked funny and shy when they requested him to do so! TGI staff give him few choices to be able to stand out in the crowd by either dance, sing or speech..Guess what he pick? Yessss Speech! At first I requested him to dance but what he knows about dancing skill was only Shuffle! WHat? SHuffle only...a frequent clubbing kaki but knows only shuffle....wakakakkaa....(juz kidding--he is a good and obedient teenager so what if he knows only shuffle...& guess what, he knows how to sing 'fren' by 'Zhou Hua Jian' only in Mandarin song, hence to know how to dance the one & only shuffle is the best thing in his LIFE alr) *faint + lolz* . He chooses SPEECH. I still remembered he was kinda paisei after being teased by us and what he said was "Thank you my sisters for celebrating birthday for me, thank to all the TGI staff"..That's it and he repeated the same line 2 times!!! hehe..

So TGI staff sing Happy Birthday song for him while we are busying video-ing for him. WIll post up the video too for clearer picture! The funniest part would be the BLowing CAndle part where one of the staff light up the candle and place the cake far from Ivan but Ivan was trying to get near to the cake to blow it!!! At last, he got to know that he needs to stand in a distance to blow the candle with a small little straw! Yes..he managed to blow the ONLY one candle after few attempts. That was funny! What I can elaborate more was that at last he don't feel shy already and keep on posing non stop with the TGI's staff for pictures!!! (that is the actual him--POSER)

Overall, I tink my bro really did enjoyed his lunch in TGI and what I can say was...ALL of us enjoyed too as we laughed outloud too. it's really a sweet and memorable day for 4 of us! NOT BAD!! *applause! applause!*

A message for him: Ivan, u have reach the freedom year but no key from parent for your whole life, so hope u 'sek jour' also. I wish you have a great & luxury life ahead!!! Stay young, healthy, attentive, caring, loving, thrify and wealthy forever! All the best to you and us! wahaha... Last but not least, a Birthday song for him!

Happy Birthday to U
Happy Burrthday to U
Happy Birthday to IVAN
Happy Burrthday to UUUuuuUUuuu...

The three happiness siblings!!

MY Experience in Sydney Australia

It's very long that I'd not signed in...Well here I come again to my world..

Let me roughly explain, why my blog has not been updated...well..it's due to:-
a) I'm reALLLY lazy
b) No time...my schedule was packed
c) Alwiz sick!!
d) Lazy to think of what to be jotted down

Anyway, let's start it again..I gonna blog 2 blogs today! Let me start with the summarized story of mine!


WEnt to Sydney Australia since 28th Apr till 2nd Apr 09. Tired and overall not a nice trip thou..Was sick when I haven went to Australia and this time Panasonic's trip aren't that good anymore. Not as posh, as good as previous time. WHY?
Less nice food e.g I'm really expecting of alot of fresh oysters, and abalone. BUt ended up altogether 9 pcs of oysters. Ish...kek sim...& 5 slices of abalone I had. Really 5 thin slices of abalone. SO kinda disappointed as Im really hoping for these food before I get there.

Well, in fact before this, I really wish to have some break as I'm really tired with my current job. Hence, Australia trip from my parent was really a good one for me to relax down. I'm so delighted when I knew that they are offering me to Australia. Untung betul...cz at 1st I need to fork up half of the air flight but in the end, everything was fully sponsored and got some ang paoS from Panasonic for this trip. It's indeed really fortunate of me as I bring AUS 130 only; AUS 30 from my parent leftover and AUS 100 from my aunty who wants me to take good care of my grandma. hahaa....what to buy with such a little money??? WEll, without Panasonic angpao I was unable to purchase so many stuff for so many people. keke~~ Thanks Panasonic for this greeeaaaaaaaatttt ANG PAOs!

Well, went to visit n climb the Sydney bridge. It's really a good experience as it is very high up in the sea. If it's not mistaken its 750meter from the ground and ard 1350m from the sea level (if not remember wrongly). On top of the bridge, we can actually see most of the sydney scenery...and we can view Sydney Opera House so clearly as it's right in front of the bridge. Besides climbing, we went to Sydney Tower as well. Well, from the tower there, we can see the entire Sydney scenery ..from North, South, East and West of Sydney. Well can you really imagine what I'd seen was really small..and tiny! Those houses, Navy, ships, vehicle on the road are as tiny as your M & M's choco!!!

And wat's more??? Haha..the most interesting part for the overall trip was the Harley Davidson drive. There are almost 50 of us riding on the Harley's posh bike, touring around Sydney's town for an hour. What come to my surprise was that, they had prepare a leather jacket for us to wear when they wanna drive us around. Some even has a complete suit (leather Jacket & pant)...haha..it looks funny.. I'm sitting on a big gigantic Harley with my granny and Panasonic's salesman (chua). He was sitting in the middle while my grandma and me in between him. Well will post up the pictures for u guys to see as I left the camera cable in my hometown. Our Harley's is green in color, driver (Chris) sit right in front of us and we are sitting right behind him with a 3 seats pouch! WHat I can said was that Chris was really a gentleman! He is a middle age Aussie but why is he gentleman? Well, he actually help my grandma to put on the helmet, to wear the jacket and help her to remove it after the ride. Hey...don't ever think he was trying to take advantage of my grandma!!! This is bcoz he offered all of us also but we rejected coz we know how to handle those except my grandma! haha...It's really a nice and unforgettable experience I had as when we were on the road, every single car was giving ways. Can u imagine total of ard 40-45 Harley Davidson were riding on the road, with the vvvRRrOOOOmmm vvRRROOOOOOOOMMMMMM lloud sound....it's so awesome. it really catched alot of other's attention esp right in front of the Sydney Opera House where so many tourist were cheering and thrilling for us, those school children were surprised to see us waving at them and those aussie adults or teenagers around the town were surprise to see most of the passengers are actually OLD/ Aldult ASIAN woman. It was really funny and we were juz like a movie star or any VIP as most of the stranger snapped pictures, or video-ing us...haha...
FYI, this trip is a Ladies trip from Panasonic, therefore most of the members are in the age range of 30-70! hahaha....mostly are actually 30-40!! There are some teenagers as well!

Well, will upload it asap once i got the cable. That's about the blog today! Will blog on Ivan's birthday later on at nite!
