Monkey-ing at work

Monkey & Beautiful CS at work
yes this was at work
on a comfy bed with down feathers duvet...think there were a total of 6 pillows
yesssssss this was really at work
:D:D:D:D

we were at a photoshoot.....
with this almost Mannequin-liked male model
who received instructions like a dummy
yeah u just need to tell him to move left right tilt head one step ahead bend down chin up etc
boring~~~~~

Mannequin was really in a daze....like he didn't wanna be here....
he was sooooo at a Star-Wars-Galaxy-distance away that there was no connection with the Female model

while Female Stick model was so tired...she almost fainted in the suite
probably malnourished.
yeah I think too low in sugar.....but we fed them with Mcdonalds!!!

they must be cursing..
hell woman!!! u know wat I've got to go through to obtain this stick figure and here u are feeding me with plastic food laden with FATS and CALORIES

The ladies took turn to have a picca with Oreo Nij
Oreo Nij is now based at the hotel
he has grown so so so so so much
okie not sideways...but grown up a lot physically and mentally

now these 2 mothers felt like old haggards next to him
:))))))))))

File pic fr ages ago....can't remember which year
when Oreo Nij was still a boy
now he's a man :P
in fact he was in the top 50 CLEO most eligible bachelor this year

Oreo Nij: "I win!!! I'm the cutest and the most adorable guy here."
oh yea yea yea...I alwiz let u win coz u r a young and innocent and naive boy then
kekekekekekkeke *or so I thought*

Thank you for making our afternoon bearable throughout the hours and hours of photoshoot
enjoy ur work there as a hotelier

now that u no longer play with Oreos
*u won't wanna know wat he do with them*
perhaps I should change ur nick from Oreo to Hotelier Nij
wat say u?
:)))))))))))))

Her World 50's Fabulous Gala

2010 marks another mileage for Her World Magazine
tell me, how many of u grew up with it...picking up copies from your dearest mummy?
well I did when I was a lil gal
and now when I'm not so lil anymore.....I dun read magazines unless it's for work
*yes my job is to sit on my desk and go through all the important magazines in the region*
**sounds fun huh? wait till u sit on this very desk**

wow didn't know Her World is 50 years old this year!!!!
and still going popular and strong :))))))))

to honor this gala event, 50 inspiring and fabulous women were nominated for a very important award
Lifetime Achievement Award where they'll receive a CORUM hehehehehehe
it's worth RM 20k plus other prizes from Lancome and Risis
and the award went to Tun Dr. Siti Hasmah...yaaayyyyy!!!!!!

Baby Wei, Monkey and Demure Nadia at the red carpet
lurve her golden YSL Mail clutch
alwiz a classic :)))

many notable guests and of coz beautiful women turned up
as alwiz...there's more amazing, beautiful, outstanding and remarkable ladies than men
in all the events I've attended
hey..come on gentlemen....pls...raise ur bar a bit can or not?

very beautiful and poised indeed

and SHE came....
Minister of Women, Family and Community Development
yes pls do continue to do more for Women Today
there's still plenty of room to grow..

okie let's not touch into politics coz I definitely can write a thesis on this.

about 350 guests were feted to 4 course dinner
food was horrible actually :P
we did a post mortem after the event with the team
and 99.99% was all bout the hotel :P
didn't know why the standard dropped so much :((((((((((
it's Hilton come on.....not HeelTon

the most enjoyable session was the 60 minutes musical by SHOUT!!!! the Mod musical

heavily preggy in yellow was Nikki, beautiful dusty blue was Tisha, Ning Baizura was all retro in orange, petite Shanel Shanty and Tria Aziz
such powerful vocals.....

they brought us down the memory lane through songs from the 60's right up to 80's
I am looking forward to their next dates of performance in KLPAC
well that is if they are still playing....:))))
Nee Lee would love this :)))

last but not least...pic wif the Tai Kor....
Happy Deepavali yea...hehhehehe

Ra-ra-ing @ Zeta Bar

Baby Wei & Monkey

first shot since we were still sober, nice and pretty :P
it's a habit to have the first shot once we enter into any venues kekekekekeke

We were at Hilton attending an event to honor Women today
today a WOMAN is a mother, sister, friend, grandmother, daughter
and they contributed to almost half of the working force in the world

it has changed so much as compared to our predecessor time
Women today play more roles and of coz super important to the economy :P

kakakakakakakka
coz women shop more :P

such paradigm shift of roles huh?
and of coz they demand more these days
they also would loved to be seen as equal with the other half or Plus One I call them :P
hence the Equal Salary Campaign!!!
*yaaayyy CORUM is a huge supporter of Equal Salary Campaign in the World*

Sexay Back Maggie & Monkey

and to celebrate this important occasion and award presentation
we had to partay our hearts out :P hahahahaha

and had so much fun

making her premier at my blog is Princess Jasmine
she's really innocent and soon will turn to the dark side under the "wings" of Sexay Back

and not to mention Women Today are Bold and Independent 

"What are u having? Can I buy u drinks?"
"No Thanks. I prefer to buy my own drinks."

my fav was Sexay Back shoooo-ing men away :P in such style
after purchasing us drinks these MEN came over to talk
"hey your table is over there.....*finger pointing*......pls go back there."
*chucklessssss*

and those poor men OBEDIENTLY went back :P *woooffff*
I really lurve u Sexay Back!!!!!!

anyway we lurve to purchase OUR OWN drinks...and didn't touch watever that was served to us
so THE MEN didn't wanna waste them...and took it back
WAHHHHH!!!!!!
No offense to Penangites but are u gentlemen fr Penang???
so kiam siap!!!!

competition for the longest face!!! I WON!!!! hands down
coz with years of practice pulling long faces...it finally did.....:P

Do not under-estimate the power of pulling long faces with squinted eyes
it's every Women's rights :P

kekekekekkekeke

Alter Ego was the band of the nite.....complete with Lady Gaga costume :P
and so everyone was ra-ra-ing to their numbers

Sexay Back's snatch of the nite :P

Sexay Back Maggie was not on top form tat nite

"NO MORE....STOP....I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!

"No more...stop...I have to drive meself home and my maid is coming to clean the place tmrw at 9am and most of all I promised JS that I won't drink so much."

Sexay Back: "WAKKAKAKA I still have to go to work tmrw at 9am."

Too3K at Zeta Bar

we crashed into Zeta Bar with a purpose
nyek nyek nyek
also checking out the new band playing - Too3K
hailed from North America....it's certainly entertaining
*oh well I shouldn't compare with the previous band*
Birthday Gal Sexay Back Maggie, Devi Gaga, Beautiful CS
Devi Gaga was looking all foxy and ready to prowl
I admired this woman's energy and her bubbly personality

well the place was packed to the brim hence no room to prowl
with all the mak datuks tan sris and their line of bodyguards

Monkey then complained to Sharoness a few days later.......
"Almost 30% of the club was fulled with bodyguards ok!!!!!"
Sharoness: "Yes I know........and they are alll so UGLY!!!"

Monkey -_-"
Sharoness: "And they ARE THE ONE....beating up those ppl who caused trouble~~~~"

"not your bouncers??? their BODYGUARDS???"
Sharoness: "Exactly!!!"
*pouts her beautiful lips*

"Good for u....u have ppl working at your club for free."
kekekekekekkeekkekeeke
so despite all we managed to have a great time
lurve all the numbers performed by Too3k

Monkey and Sexay Back was deciding who's hawter
Sexay Back: "I think Stuart is so cute!!!"
"Yea yea yea but Corey is also cute :)))))))))))))"

well Sharoness just informed that Corey is leaving the band soon...
erm is this true?
sorry folks no pics of Stuart nor Corey...
they were moving like 2 fast bullets,
couldn't get their pics :P

Too3k is perfoming at Zeta Bar, Hilton KL until Oct 09
Sexay Back, when are we coming back again?
*can scrap Waikiki Too liao*

SHADES, Zeta Bar

It's a new band at Zeta Bar and we were invited to preview its energetic performance
the 2 lady singers were awesome with strong vocal
and they REALLY really can shake their asses like Shakira

while the 6 foot tall singer was only cute
Sexay Back Maggie: "Wat is he doin there at the back? Is he pretending to be a VASE?"
-_-"
Sexay Back & Bubbly Deviga
who came together...
they are the new chopstick sisters ever since they knew each other
erm like 3 weeks ago?
hehehehhehehehe
Monkey & No Longer Available JH
I was surprised he WAS WILLING to have a pic with me

ooOOooo I am so honoured
*sob sob sob*

there was a spring/summer 09 presentation by Max & Co
it's not helping me to save money at all
*I need to stop spending $$$ this month*

"OOOOoo I like the bags....and also the stilettos....aaAAAAaaaaa"
Sexay Back Maggie & Tatler Mare
Mare won the lucky draw and got herself a Max & Co sexay shades
Beautiful CS & Monkey
she was busy the whole nite trotting around in her champagne glasses

Monkey no drink drink
sick mar :P
it was my 1st time meeting Bubbly Deviga
Nice to meet u gal!!!
surely had fun and let's do this again yea!!!
So Hilt Sharon's bosses, So Hilt Sharon & Monkey

When I came out...So Hilt was not to be found
so this was the only pic I have
*thanks for tagging Beautiful CS :)*

verdict:
we missed AKASHA!!!
read about AKASAH *here*

Senses, Hilton

Don't think I'll see Chef Cheong Liew in Senses
anyway So Hilt Sharon was so sweet and helped Monkey to organise this dinner

:))))
It was JS's birthday dinner
*yes I know another Mr. JS's Birthday dinner*

"I don't want the normal standard menu"
So Hilt Sharon: "So u want degustation rite?"

"Anything except the menu!!!"
So Hilt Sharon: "But it's gonna be costly!!"

"Anything!!! Don't want the menu!!!"
well coz I'll end up choosing food that I hate like the signature Dances of the Sea
and as usual menu came fr the Chef himself in my inbox 4 days earlier

"OMG, there's 12 courses!!! We need to remove some!!!"
Chef Michael: "Oh sorry to tell u that both of u eating different dishes so it's not 12 course. Just to give u the change to try as many dishes as possible :)"

Monkey let out a loud relief sigh............
Chef Michael: "Let me know if you are ok with this or still want to change. It's not 12 courses, I would not do that to you, have to roll you out."

:))))))))))))))))
Somebody bought this shirt for his birthday........
so he can wear it. :P

JS is now a freak of Comme des Garsons
he also bought me 2 shirts. :D

"Pressie for me on YOUR BIRTHDAY?"
*scratch head*
this maker is currently my favourite.....
with its mineral nose, I was saving it for my MEAT course!!!

and we also found another Burgundy lover in town...
hiak hiak hiak
Chief Sommelier Roderick W.
Wagyu Pancetta
interesting eh? Since they can't serve pork, Chef Michael got creative by using wagyu
served with light salad and smoked almonds
it was laid on top of a glass bowl
so pretty and so yummy
both of us were fighting for the last piece!!!
well he's the Birthday Boy so he got it.
Petuna Oceantrout
it was gently cooked and served with Swedish bleak roe & sour cream sphere

1) u can almost can't buy oceantrout in KL
2) u memang confirmed kenot get Swedish bleak roe in town

since Chef came fr Sweden, he infused some of his roots into the dish
the small lil green there was Swedish watercress which has this pungent anise after taste
one small leaf was leathal enuff.
Wild caught sea prawns & arrow squid
both were caught in Australia
then cooked in spiced chorizo oil *yep chorizo goes well with seafood very very much*
pimento *a type of hot pepper* & aubergine were then coal grilled
served in chili, basil and tomato confit.

Prawns were excellent!!!
Hokkaido Bay scallops with sweet corn puree, grilled fennel & MORE waygu BACON!!!
the scallops were slightly over cooked, coz we prefer them softer.
Didn't know grilled fennel can taste this good. :)))))))))))
Abalone rice!!! aka Abalone risotto served in chicken jus

earlier:
"He doesn't take duck."
Chef Michael: "Ok I'll do something else then."

but I forgot to tell Chef that JS dun take any poultry or more like anything with wings + feathers
with a beak and 2 feet.

the grains were extremely al dente - just the way we lurve it.
Is this on the menu?!??!??!
I WANT!!!!
strasbourg foie gras with aussie quince, balsamic and hazelnut espuma and rosemary

JS lurve this one
Monkey prefers one and only foie gras king in town = Sage
:P
red roasted cod with leek fondue, snow pea vine shoots, green chili & coriander sauce
u'll be surprised this was my favourite dish of all
*okie the wagyu pancetta also scored 100 pointer*
and u know wat?? it was on the menu :P
Port Lincoln Kingfish
the lil cassouleton the side was stewed white beans, shellfish & tomato
cassoulet originated fr south of France
ooooo I missed Cote D'azur

anyway this fish can never catch up with roasted cod
COD has more fat = smooth velvety taste + sweet
king fish aka hiramasa = more for sashimi
*am craving for roasted cod now*
my usual STUFFED look!!!
Chef Michael was so generous with the degustation portion
we were seriously stuffed by then and main course has yet to arrive
coal grilled Tajima sirloin served with gremoulata rolled aubergine with anchovies on top of spicy tomato sauce.
the carrot has a soft cumin taste on it
Wagyu cheek with veal shank ravioli, surrounded by garlic sauteed escargot
in bouguignon garnish

wagyu cheek requires a lot of work - the braising part
it has this tender texture with "gelatin" innit
I can't remember the last time I had wagyu cheek

then we had 60% of the meat to be packed to go.
aaaAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaa
rhubarb sorbet with a pretty edible flower

JS got a K_O look *that's KO by the way*
he had enuff of rhubarb back in England's boarding school
well that was so long ago but left such a strong memory in him
everyday rhubarb pie!!!
I LOVE RHUBARB
the best rhubarb pie I had was in Switzerland!!!!
Chef Michael's signature creation of Manjari Emulsion
it's actually smooth manjari chocolate & Evian emulsion, chocoalte soil, Murray River pink salt caramel and pure cocoa oil

u are supposed to have a tasting portion of the manjari chocolate...then the pink salt caramel..
followed by all the soil *mix em*

So Hilt Sharon said this is a baby food
maybe only for u

hiak hiak hiakGrand marnier Souffle!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it didn't collapse this round coz Chef has a secret
hehehe and I am not sharing with u all :))))

I like it this way!!
actually Senses signature souffle - lime souffle
but they have choices of grand marnier, valrhona chocolate, lemon

and he infused everything inside
unlike in Sage, Grand marnier was served on the side.

Okie I SHALL NOT WILL NOT KENOT compare both places and both chefs
each has their own style.

If u enjoy good beef and steak go to Senses
If u are a purist with ingrediets pls head to Sage
*Cilantro is opening end of the year.........wooohooooooo*

Must say this visit was way better than last year
