[spongme]

Anne, I like the food at the coffeeshops. Market ah, don't think I've been. Hmm, but been to the night makan place once. Food quite nice also.

We also like to go to Jelutong market to makan everything there. Last time went there can makan 3 bowls, hmm, if now go maybe can masuk 4??? Wuahahaha...

 

[spongme]

Marilyn, thanks for the colourful update! So sweet of u... give u cute icon

 

[anne]

SP: u often go to Penang? With your family ah??
The night makan place is infront of the market

Wow..u also know Jelutong market..keke..that's pretty near my house.
The serving portion is small in Pg,3 or 4 bowls shdn't be a prob

 

[spongme]

Anne, I very greedy one, purposely go Penang just to makan! Went with my family lor, makan must have kaki mar, wuahaha... So far we went on the makan trip twice I think.

Yeah, portion is small, but not that small lar. I think 2 bowls is just nice. But since we went all the way there, how can eat "so little"? Must stuff more mar to make the trip more worthwhile

Can u find nice Penang food in S'pore? Do u miss yr hometown food? Some of the food has come to KL, but some never did, like "sar hor fun".

 

[anne]

SP: I don't really fancy hawker food in Pg..so not so badly missed them..keke.
I missed nyonya food fr Pg which I can get them in Spore Copthorne King Hotel the Penang Peranakan buffet.

Talking about that..ladies, maybe the next gathering we can go there to try Penang buffet..how?

 

[anne]

If i bring my friends to eat hawker food in Pg..ppl next table might thought that we r those "hungry ghost" never eat for long long time.
They order almost every stalls of food..and can imagine that all the plates have to stack up one another on the table..my gosh!

"sar hor fun" ah! u can get a nice "wat tan hor" in KL rite? anyway I don like "sar hor fun"

 

[tlc]

[tlc]

Jumbo,

so w is ur banquet at JB? me so far think danga bay &amp; one restorant near danga bay condo?(seafood village) up fm danga bay...easy for my sg attendant mah

Surveyed on Tmn sentosa, Venus &amp; Elegant in my list so far, will survey City Sq pro tis weekend, Venus photo v nice, got many awards but limit gowns for me petite &amp; skinny, v worried can't get nice one... how u think bout BS u surveyed?

 

[jumbo]

tlc, dunno leh.. most of my relatives and my parents' friends staying at pekan nanas and pontian leh... the 2 places are small towns... restaurant very limited... dunno any nice one there or not... where's denga bay huh? ulu or not? i'm not familiar with johor.. well, not even my hometown...

 

[tlc]

huh?! danga bay q famous ler...it's new outgoing place in johor south...even PM Abdullah been invited to formally open it, it's on news too, &amp; invite Sg PM for Hari Raya celebration wif thousand ppl dinner (quan ren yan) last time, u shld heard bout it!

It's rather beauty n relax to jln jln... but me seldom go as no time + many malay like go der... bit crowd, m'sia lack of such place so once open one, all local like keen on der

 

[evelynmao]

BB_2, thanks for share out the DIY method of Ang Bow Box, it give me some idea ... hee... Currently don't have much time to find all the sources lah...

Marilyn, you change nickname har... ok, here is my updation. I'm staying at Punggol. Your jie mei is very good in doing the box, so beautiful

Jumbo, I will only hold one banquet at JB, tentatively decide Hyatt. If you don't mind the distance, you can consider Pulai Spring golf resort.

tlc, I'm also not familiar with Danga bay. Is it an outdoor banquet at the seafood village, what is the minimun requirement for the tables?

I will have my PS on 1st of May, my BS is Venus. Probably take Danga Bay as my outdoor PS. Got time I will check out the place.

 

[tlc]

Evelyn,

wah, u choose Venus ah~ package 3888? care share the pckg details, me still considering wanna take it onot due to limited gown lor...shang nao jin! Venus offer q lot things for us act... remmeber update us some pic after ur PS ler...

well, login www.dangabay.com, if i got their infor after survey let u noe yaa... how bout share ur Hyatt banquet? how many pax allowed &amp; how much per table?

 

[marilyn_chh]

evelyn,
you're staying in punggol??? wah, we're neighbours!! next time i got kaki liao to go gathering..hehehe...

 

[evelynmao]

tlc, you are right I choose the package of 3888, but plus &amp; minus some item on it and finally deal with them on 4388. Aiyo, my bargain skill is not very good. You can reference as follow,

1) Actual Day
1 WG
2 EG
2 coat
hand bouquet
car deco

2) PhotoShot
15" digital design, full page 20pages (25 poses)
(can't remember the actual size, receipt with my hubby.)
1 table top which is the biggest one
1 wall photo 24*48 (if I'm not wrong) with digital design
120 bookmark, which have 2 design
(as 1 design must print by 60pieces)
CD photo which is the selected in 20 pages.

So, I don't want the small 8R album &amp; 2 table top, replace the 4R photo into bookmark. change the original wall photo to a new digi design and longer photo frame. top up the digital design photo is RM500.

How's you think about that? I'm not so sure whether their gown for petite gal is limited, will need to go down end of April to choose my PS gown.

mrc, oh where you stay? I'm staying at Punggol field. Yah, next time we can back home together

 

[susany]

Morning ladies - TGIF - HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY

has anyone got fooled today?

 

[eccentric]

well susan, i havent plan for the transportation yet. Guess its either by coach or plane lor. Small group only leh.

yup, cheong sam for the dinner &amp; a simple dress for the morning tea ceremony and maybe use fresh roses for the hair. That's about it. Nothing else. Now to source for hubby's attire lor.

Hopefully everyone will have a good time eating &amp; drinking.

 

[anne]

Good morning ladies..
Happy ApRil FoOl'S Day !!

 

[susany]

Elaine, having simple ceremony indeed save a lot of hassles. Closer and more meaningful interactions among guests and the host too.

 

[tlc]

Hi Evelyn,

Almost the same...they directly offer 1 more table top fm basic pkg. Thin they charge us ard RM300 for horizontal wall photo frame. Do u hv Desaru OD? if so, topup how much? how many outfits u hv? they willing us wear own casual fm top of 7 outfits!!

i saw their costume clothes, oso v limited, the cheongsum okok &amp; spanish costume which i like most v old fashion... hv u ask their bouquet? normally is rose or lily...might dun want their bouquet if really sign wif them. Do update me ur gown selection &amp; PS pics later, hehe~ just my presonal sharing...

 

[tlc]

Venus do charge for hair setting, ampier &amp; fake eyelash...

normally for album, BS are referring to xx pages or xx piece of photo? make me confused...if 20+ pics oly, sure not enough...

 

[tlc]

Evelyn, u mean topup RM500 for chnage to horizontal wall pic frame (design design)?

 

[ppp]

ah...quite busy today...but stil take sometime to come in..hehe....

Anne, I used to stay at pulau tikus for about a year....miss the " ho na kak" night market food...especially Penang Laksa!

Susan I agree with u...I will also just invite all close relatives and friends only....

BB 2,
