" Do you live to eat, or eat to live?"
The choice is yours. It's absolutely true if we choose to eat to live to sustain life and be a healthy human being. But don't you feel that at times, we actually live to eat. Malaysia is famously known as a food haven and that all sorts of food from diverse style can be found here. It's challenging to try and resist the various food served as the taste stimulates our taste buds and make us impossible to pause even for a second as the stomach begins to crave for more!
After a wonderful trip to Genting with my friends, i was all geared up to head north with my father's and my childhood friends. We called the trip, the Makan Trip, and no doubt that all of us went for an eating spree. The trip was to Sungai Petani, Penang and through Ipoh as well. Bloated, throughout the trip, it was certainly full for the stomach, and the heart as well.

As early as 6, the crowd began to flood in the well-known Gurney Drive, perfect for food enthusiastTry stomaching this, having meals up to 7 times per day, of which i think it's too much, but still with it. Breakfast, brunch, lunch, after-lunch (not tea break), tea, dinner and finally supper. The pictures above are just part of it.
My makan spree did not come to an end just yet, but more ahead. Yesterday, my 'Ah Ku' bought us lunch and dinner. We had a sort-of-like Christmas gathering in his house in the evening and had exchange gifts among us. I was flabbergasted, in a pleasant way, of the gifts i received. I longed for storybooks and i got 2 at once. Also, the perfume, chocolates and key chain were lovely gifts and truly treasuring it.
Back to the lunch, we ate at Shogun in One Utama (sorry, no pictures for this as the rest doesn't allow anyone to take pictures of the food). We feasted and pampered ourselves with scrumptious food, ranging from cod fish to the famous salmon, and Chawan Mushi to tempura prawns! We quaffed the green tea too and devoured whatever comes in our way. A bit of exaggeration, but it's true. Spent about 3 hours there, we strut ourselves out, laughing at the how our stomach had grown! Long time no see Colin, Sue Ann and Sue Yin, i was ecstatic to see them again. Had dinner together at Oldtown Kopitiam and ate once more.
With Christmas and New Year in just one week time, i believe it's the season to share, forgive and forget, and give and get. Thank You for the food we ate, and i thank once more to everyone involved. Isn't life simply wonderful? Merry Christmas and wish me luck surviving the bursting of my stomach!
