Medan (Travelogue) *Day Two

Hi Peeps,

I'm back with day 2 updates, nothing much really. just a couples of food spamming photos, which i could have had taken more. but... wasn't feeling so, that's 1 thing about me when it comes to gathering or having a mini reunion with ma besties.

as i've mentioned countless, whenever i'm in a group of friends. i tent to spend more time catching up with each other rather than busy snapping pictures, reason? is simple, we don't get to see each other often, so why not treasure the moment than 'autistically' busy taking pictures, right?
ultimately, i still took some LOL. hahahhaha.. just a little, not much.

Got up around 9 and headed out to have some Dim Sum breakfast treat by the bride, Hello Meriiiii.. if you're reading this, BIG FAT THANK YOU for the massive hospitality :)
0 photo taken, but if you guys plan to have some Dim Sum fest in Medan, give below restaurant a go

They serve pretty decent dim sum, my girlfriend was like tucked in 3 or 4 portion of the chicken feet! while i'm struggling from the insane hang over.
but i do recommend you people to try if you happen to visit Medan

So after the dim sum fest, we returned to our hotel to pack all our belonging and prepared for check-out

It basically a Swiss roll with various type of filling in the inside, flavors available on their official website, make sure to check it out people.
the highly/most hyped filling is the shredded cheese *FYI

Zulaikha Bika Ambon
Street : Jl. Mojopahit
No : 62
Telp : (061) 4528181

In a quick glance, this cakes look like honeycomb. with a lots of holes within made by the yeast that mixed with coconut milk, tapioca flour, sugar, etc.
taste like crumpet, mildly chewy to some extend. but it nice tho..
not my first time eating it, but certainly my 1st try from above brand. i like the not so oily texture *some can be really wet and oily. and this come with a little bit of lemon grass fragrance, i bet the older generation will love it.

Gift checklist done, nothing much after. just chillin' in town cafe, chit chating till dinner time and off to the airport.
to sum it up, it was a very pleasant short visit.
surely, good times :)

That is all for today update people

Till Then,
Have a Great Day

Much Love ♥

NamNam Noodle Bar @ Suntec (Dinner)

Hi Peeps, Today i'm gonna share with you guys on my dining experience at one of the most famous Vietnamese cuisine, The NamNam Noodle Bar . Just to be honest, i was a Vietnam food virgin until the day i decided to give it a go (late bloomer alert!! *LOL). my biggest temptation was to try their famous street food Phở . Set a dinner date with my besties, so we went to The NamNam Noodle Bar branch at Suntec after work, wish to take more picture but the queue was crazy *as it always been, never once i've seen it with nobody in line. keep reading on, you'll know why ; ) Upon awaiting to be seated, i browse thru their menu to pick up what i'd like to have to fulfill my growling tummy Seated Utterly delighted to found that there are 'Phở Chicken' available on the menu, which doesn't took me second thought to put on my order list. in case some of you wondering why didn't i go for the original Phở (which comes with beef brisket slices), Umm.
