Life's like a book...: Manila / Abu Dhabi - 15-19 September 2008

Manila.....

I was operating to Manila, and Jeremy followed...As we'd only 19 hrs (due to delay) there we didn't do much....just ate and we went to Makati....

Manila in the night.....
Jeepney...
GreenBelt....

We had our dinner in Landmark's food court.....That's where we can try their local food cos in Green Belt it's all international food.....To get here we took the Metro (LRT equivalent) - the amount of people who were commuting were scary.....they were basically lining up to get into the station....there's no space inbetween them......good experience...We stopped at Ayala - near Shoe Mart...costs 25 peso each... (RM2 )

Barbequed Pork with rice

Grilled pork - The bowl of sauce was good....it's a mix of peanuts and some lime...My friend told me wat it was but as usual I've forgotten...The name starts with S i think...ehehe.....a must-try...very nice when it's dipped with grilled pork (siu yook)

Grilled chicken with rice...

Barbeque pork stick....

Back in Abu Dhabi.....

Due to Ramadhan, it was difficult to find food daytime. Unlike M'sia, restaurants are all closed until evening time. Even shopping malls, many shops are closed as well. So we'd to cook. Let me present the cooks' dishes...

Fried Fish with ginger slices and soy sauce ...ahem...cooked by yours truly...

Potato with mince pork....also cooked by yours truly....

Ko Lo Yook - Errm....I forgot how to translate this.... it's Fried Pork lah basically....this is cooked by the chef specially escorted from M'sia....Jeremy...

Taa daaa........lunch for the day.....

I'm not exaggerating when I say that the restaurants are closed!!!! This picture was taken at Abu Dhabi Mall at 5.30pm....The waiters were still setting up the tables....
