Honey Mustard Chicken and Soy Vanilla Banana

I can't never say NO to Honey Mustard, it is so yumeh! Thus, I've ordered Honey Mustard Chicken Sandwich. They serve big sandwich and the bread looks so thick but don't judge heh. The bread itself is so fluffy with a little crisp. As for drinks I've ordered Soy Vanilla Banana Smoothie, oh baby the smoothie is smooth and they blend very well together.

Honey Mustard Chicken Sandwich cost 1,500 yen while Soy Vanilla Banana Smoothie cost 800 yen.

The Saem Urban Eco Harakeke Toner - Honest Review

I have been using Urban Eco Harakeke Toner from The Saem for a month. I'm here to review bits of this toner.

Urban Eco Harakeke Toner

The bottle packing looks prefect and is so "urban" and it is very pretty for display on your vanity table.

Pretty Packaging

I purchase this toner with the anticipation that it will be a hydrating toner and that it will lock the moisture in my face. But it turns out to that is a bit dry for me and it also had a scent "green thingy scent" which I think is the scent of Harakeke (not really sure coz I did not really smell any Harakeke before), not a fragrance lover on face product. 

Ingredients 

From the box it stated that it contains pure moisturizing energy of the pristine New Zealand Harakeke. WOW we got NZ x KR here. But yet they had perfume in it! Which is a big no no to me!

What I love is that the Harakeke Toner texture is in the form of gel. I love gel products as it feels more soothing and easy to apply. But overall is turns out that is not a HG product for me.

Orchid and bonsai lover will love this event - "Kuala Lumpur Orchid and Bonsai Show 2015 (klobs2015)" It is held at Taman Tasik Perdana. 

A big park in middle of KL City. You can spend almost two hours by walking around the park by foot. They do provide shuttle bus around the park.

Private Cruise Charter from Telaga Harbour to Koh Lipe.

If you are sourcing how to get  Koh Lipe from Telaga Harbour you might find this post helpful fred not!

Weeks before flying off from KL (Kuala Lumpur) to LGK (Langkawi), what we do is that we book the ferry transfer which is normally available to be book online but who knows that the schedule of the ferry transfer time only available in the morning and we need the ferry transfer on the noon. 

OMG! We email several ferry operator and even call up the Telaga Harbour office but there was non of the ferry operator had any transfer in the noon time.

It was low peak season for Koh Lipe and the current are high during May, so I guess they limit the ferry transfer time. It was a major mistake back then to not notice this transfer time.

We found one sailing company that offer the transfer during noon with this we proceed going to Koh Lipe with private cruise charter which cost a fortune! But hey! is a once in a lifetime experience for us to experience sailing and we all agreed for this option. 

We contacted Blue Water Star Sailing and they respond us efficiently with the suggested vessel and price. We had 9 pax all together thus Gone Surfin' was the option available for the noon transfer and we secure the booking with 50% deposit. 

Their service was pretty good, Gred help us to prepare documentation for immigration before hand and Captain Toad even call us to make sure our arrival time,documentation and he even share the charter transfer information to us.  

With sailing the transfer time will take a longer duration compare to ferry thus Captain has to make sure we get to Koh Lipe before the sunsets and it is very dangerous for us as we all have no sailing experience before and we might get sea sick due to long sailing hours. 

For sailing the transfer took almost 4-5 hours to reach Koh Lipe and yes by ferry you will only take at least 1-1.5 hours max to reach! Is very time consuming but hey is sailing yo! How often you get to sail (positive vibes)? Sailing are very dependable on the wind so if we get more wind we sail faster.  

As the time comes we are just getting laid by the sun and had a good nap through out trip. 

But I was lucky enough! Captain Toad spotted a whale flipping his tail several times and I got to witness it with my bare eyes when others had already knock off in to their dreamland.

It was another OMG experience witnessing whale flipping tail twice is total worth the fees for this transfer. If only they flip their whole body then it will be a big bonus! (greedy).

So would you splurge on sailing?

You might get to witness a whale or dolphin!

Best Creme Brûlée in Hong Kong.

This is great! I get to try Paul Lafayet Creme Brûlée during my last trip to Hong Kong at K11 mall Tsim Sha Shui.

It cost HKD 45 and is worth the dollar! The texture is so smooth and the sugar coating crisp is just so right and is doesn't taste sweet. I love it so much it was really the best one that I ever tried and the vanilla taste is so rich.

Look i poke a hole in to the Creme brûlée. This was the original chef recommended creme brûlée, during my visit they had a special edition "Grand Marnier" creme brûlée which is sold at HKD 38 and is in a small size compare to the original.

They have plenty of selection for pastries and my tummy reserved a place only for Creme brûlée. Will try it next time!

 

Paul Lafayet is located at K11 Mall Ground Floor 23, 18 Hanoi Road TSim Sha Shui, Hong Kong.
