Hot & roll

Last week, both of us went to The Spring.
& decided to try out this newly opened for not-so-long.
Hot & Roll.
Love the signboard of it, sorta like a conversation bubble.
Just a small, nice, comfortable shop slot.
But it looks super clean, must be graded "A".
The light-up-very-bright menu.
For easy reference. We like.
We ordered up a lot, & not-to-miss-out this must-order Chicken & Cheese Crispy Wrap.
It's just a poster, a huge one.
& this is what we got. Kinda disappointed at first but, till the end, where all the mayonnaise, cheese & goodness are, we are glad we did ordered this.
It is all juicy & oozing with yummyness!
Next up is Banana Chocolate Paratha Wrap.
Just looking at it again makes us wanna fly back & eat again.
Must(!) eat when served. When the chocolate is hot, which absorbs the banana's fragrant!
Last is Chicken Sausage Chapatti Wrap.
Do not let the look fool you, this is one awesome wrap filled with awesomebomb sauce, that makes you go bomb.
The sauce is sort of a blend of mayonnaise with thousand island and sweet sour?
If you get what we meant, this is superblyawesome!
Last but not least, our mess(!).
At Hot & roll, you will have to dirty your hands in eating 'em.
But it's all worth it in the end, it's finger lickin' good, like how KFC puts it.

Next up is Delizze, stay tuned!
Have an awesome week ahead & do look forward for another post on the Gathering Of The Tribes!
Ciao.

Study week, uh, we meant, finals.

Finals are here.
Officially here since the first paper we had was 2pm this afternoon.
So, we did the usual routine.
Heading off to the campus' library with tons of junk food, er, what we really meant was, motivational food.
Without these food, we had utterly no energy and motivation to study.

Like for example; the picture below.
One of the types of necessity foods we brought along.
All these food apparently take away the 50% of the space of one of our bags.
That is quite a wide variety we had here, right?

Let us do a brief introduction for 'em then.
The must: Apple & Blackcurrent juice.
Otherwise to be refilled with Ribena.
Someone once quoted that "A Ribena A Day Keeps The Doctor Away". Wait, that was quoted by Pasta.
So, yeah, practically, Pasta needs to drink Ribena everyday.
The cravings: Chocolate & its minions.
Chocolates are known to make people happy and a little hype?
So they are good and needed for motivating purposes.
And to keep us awake.
The last: Dry junk food.
Not to miss out, Steak's favourite Lee Fah Mee, nostalgic!
Pasta's Firecrackers, CNY-ish?

That sums up the types of junk food, wait, it's motivational food we had up in our stash and sleeves.
To make sure we will never ever starve.

Oh, before we forget, this blog will be on a short pause.
In other words, lag. Till after finals.
Wish us luck, okay?
Oh, look at the time! Back to books, ciao.

For the love of Durian - King of Fruits.

Came across a few friends, be it online or offline, are crazy lovers for Durian like us.
Well, if you might no be knowing what Durian is.
Here is a little explanation for you.

Durian, considered King of Fruits, is famous throughout Malaysia for their pleasant taste and aroma. Not to forget that yummeh-ness is contended in them.

Some referred Durian to "that thorny thing" as it is all thorns from the outside. But, who will know it is all heaven inside for us, fanatic lovers of Durian? With the sharpness of our knives in opening the durian, we dig our ways into Durian and thus, our ways to cloud nine.
Some referred Durian to "that thing that smelt like damp socks" as for its fragrant aroma. Then again, for us, it is like perfume to our nose. Due to its strong smell, most of the public places revoke its presences.
So what is Durian to us?
As most eats Durian freshly, as in, directly after the fruit being opened. That is also when the aroma is strongest. Here is a little secret from us, we sometimes do enjoy eating refrigerated durians. Chilled Durians are good too, why not try it yourself?
So, fresh Durian is a heavenly sensation to us while chilled Durian is a cooling sensation.

Source of information on Durian above are adapted from some juicy yummy Durian sites.

Okay, so what does this post have to do with us?
Let's put it this way, we went around and we found this.
Crispy Durian Chip. Found this on a rack in a store. Being a crazy lover for Durian. Cannot resist.
So, bought it right away. Happily went home with pride. Found something related to Durian.
What is good about this is that it is all packed into 3 individual packets. Small-mouth-sized bites.
Really easy and convenient, y'know?
Clean, simple packets. Who doesn't like this?
You can just grab any amount of packets you want and hide them under your bed.
On nom nom them anytime, anywhere, with anyone you want.
See? We got most of the any's here.
Proves how good Crispy Durian Chips are?
Easy small-sized bites. That is actually the inside of the Durian, dried.
Pretty awesome, right?
Suprisingly, these chips still have that fresh strong heavenly smell.
And, one bite takes it all. The taste is 90% similar to real fresh ones.
Double wow?
The back of the big packet.
A little description on the back of the packet.
We are guessing now you know where this product is from?
See how good this is?
Made from Real Durian 100%. Free from Oil and Addictives.
Well, we will leave that to you all to decide.
While we go and do some on nom nom on our Crispy Durian Chips.
Can't wait for Durian Season. Ciao.

Study week?

Yeaps, time flies. This week is officially study week.
Like it or not, finals are in one weeks' time. Not more not less.
Sorry, can't help but /being emo/.
Anyway, we are always getting our head out the atmosphere of stress and tense here.
Headed down The Spring for some fun. MBO, to be exact.
Amongst all the fun, exciting, interesting movie titles there, we chose this.
Cause it is best to be squeezed into our tight timetable of being out. Kay? /le sigh/
So, here it is.
It's complicated.

It's an 2009 American romantic comedy film written and directed by Nancy Meyers, starring Meryl Streep, Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin.

Let's peek into the storyline, shall we?
Jane (Meryl Streep) is the mother of three grown kids, owns a thriving Santa Barbara bakery/restaurant and has—after a decade of divorce—an amicable relationship with her ex-husband, attorney Jake (Alec Baldwin). But when Jane and Jake find themselves out of town for their son's college graduation, things start to get complicated. An innocent meal together turns into the unimaginable—an affair. With Jake remarried to the much younger Agness (Lake Bell), Jane is now, of all things, the other woman.
Caught in the middle of their renewed romance is Adam (Steve Martin), an architect hired to remodel Jane's kitchen. Healing from a divorce of his own, Adam starts to fall for Jane, but soon realizes he's become part of a love triangle.
Should Jane and Jake move on with their lives, or is love truly lovelier the second time around? It's... complicated.

A trailer or two for your eyes?


Here is what the peeps gotta say about the movie.
When brought together at a family event, two exes find themselves oddly attracted to each other after ten years of divorce. Although the couple think that this affair will stay in a different state, it brings itself back to their own city and disrupts their personal lives. While the couple still maintain other romances, they cannot help but to continue with their affair. Written by Danielle Laskowitz

And here's some juicy digs about the review and stuffs.
Here, here, here, here and here.

Back to the topic. Study week.
When life gives you lemon, why not make lemonade? /teehee!/
Okay, so we did take 'study week' as an excuse to buy ourselves a whole load of tidbits, more-or-less, junk food.
Below is a good example of how much we can consume in a day's study.
Voilla! Guess what we packed for the day? Take a good look?

Here is the answer.
Milo 200ml drink, Milo wafers, Muruku ikan, Oyster mushroom chips, Cadbury zip vanilla-flavoured, Capri-sonne grape, Apollo Chocolate layer cake, Rocky chocolate biscuit sticks, Strepsils. And, Tuna spread.
Think we got 'em all.

Compare the pictures below?

Now, tell us what's the difference?
It's easy-peasy. You won't miss the addition of...
The Yellow Okay Pen!
Okayyy, it's lame.
The reason for why we bought the yellow-okay-pen was to make sure everything is okay. /laughs/
Isn't that reason enough?

Anyway, back to books. Ciao.
