Vietnamese Spring Rolls with Thai Sauce


As I was searching for a place to have a big breakfast, I stumbled upon a Malay-style restaurant inside KLCC called Aseana. As I browsed through the menu, there were various traditional delicacies listed including Nasi Lemak, Curry Puff and other nice choices for the Malaysian at heart.
I decided to try my luck on the Vietnamese Spring Rolls with Spicy Thai Sauce. Rest assured. It was spicy to the core. The combination of the rolls, or as we Malaysians so lovingly call it "popiya" is a rolled-up hard crispy thin dough with the stuffing of bean-sprouts, chili and potatoes. The Thai sauce was magnificent and cuts the rolls to a stinging after-taste.
Unless you aren't a bravado, do not attempt to try this dish! As far as I am concerned, it was superb. I managed to gulp down only three of the six rolls. They were quite filling. Try Aseana in KLCC Ground Floor for this lovely serving of chili extravaganza!

Bustling in Bangkok

Having travelled all over the world, I'm embarrassed to admit that I have not had the chance to visit my own neighbour, Thailand until I was 33. Come International Muay Thai Day in Bangkok, I decided to catch the "Muay Thai Live: The Legend Live" show at the Asiatique Bangkok arena in early 2019. I was left speechless at how these incredibly fit fighters managed to execute every move without fail. Lots of somersaults, fight simulation and high jumps were incorporated in the theatrics of the performance. No one was allowed to film inside the auditorium so I am not able to give you a preview on what the show was all about. Basically it is like a musical, except instead of singing and dancing, the performers fight each other. I did stick around for the actual muay thai matches after the show. The competitors were mostly teenagers, defending their provinces. Staying in Lumpinee, I got around with the help of Grab motorbikes- yep, they have Grab (e-hailing service in Southeast

Burger King in Nuremberg! Day Three of Road Trip: We fetched our would-be host from München to our next pitstop ---Nuremberg. I could see the synonymous word for this town originating from its dark history. The Nazi trials, museums and historical artifacts remains attached to this amazing castle-filled city. We headed to the stadium where former Nazi parades in its glory days took place. I even had the chance to stand at the same podium which Adolf used as his speech platform to embed his nasty propaganda to his audience. (goosebumps all over!) We then made our way to a coliseum-looking building which was an unfinished Hitler-project. The ruins remained in good condition but to our unfortunate timing, the Document museum was shut under renovation period. We then set foot on the Burger King which was built at an important city council building during the times of the American intervention (I call it intervention coz ppl here were obviously smoking something they shouldn't, wha
