My car was sent for repair, knocking, re-spraying as well as had its front mirror replaced. Total cost? RM3000. Yeah that’s a lot of money on the expense on my own carelessness..

This big dent was caused by an accident 6 months ago in Kuala Lumpur. I was going to visit KL Tower and eventually lost my way. Desperate to make a left turn from the right lane, a speeding motorbike from behind hit my car. The impact also caused my mirror to crack a little.

These scratches were caused last year August just after my graduation. Someone whom I suspect is a motorcyclist scratched my car when he was moving his bike..

Sometimes I am really careless when reversing my car. I knocked a pillar in my condominium’s car park because I didn’t look carefully. The brown patch was the result of knocking and painting to temporary fix it.

This is how my Satria looks now, all brand new. The sifu did a really good job and I recommend anyone who wants to have their car fixed to consult him

If there is a food that you can find available more in the mainland side of Penang, it gotta be Yam Rice. It is less common to find stalls that solely sell Yam Rice in Penang island compared to Seberang Perai district. Do you know that some stalls use Bukit Mertajam Yam Rice as their names? As far as I know, there are 4 places to look for good Yam Rice here: Taman Sentosa, the stall below IBM Tuition Centre, Taman Mutiara and Chai Leng Park (there are 2 stalls here) A set consists of Yam Rice and Salted Vegetable Pork Soup. Usually, they also offer Vinegar Pork Leg as additional side dish.

Yam Rice is rice cooked with yam (how straightforward lol) by boiling them together. So the rice is really fragrant and the yam soft. If lucky, one could get a bowl of rice with many chunks of yam. Well, today I wasn’t that lucky

The appetizing soup has generous amount of pork meat and balls. Taken together with the chilli sauce, nice lah! And for hygiene purposes, I opted not to take the pork organs.. still don’t really dare to eat any organs unless they are prepared by my mom. Anyway, a 2 persons meal like this costs only RM8.20, cheap right?

Right beside the Bukit Mertajam’s Tua Pek Kong Temple are 2 noodle stalls. One of them sells Ching Th’ng 清汤 noodles. Priced @ RM2.00, it looks and tastes like Koay Teow Soup.

But the main attraction at this noodle stall is its chilli sauce. It is very diluted, almost like water and not spicy.

The chiili sauce goes very well with the noodles. To really enjoy the noodles, a recommended way is to take a spoonful of the chilli sauce and pour on top of the noodles.

And this is the obligatory Tok Tok Mee that everyone must try
