Can you hear it?

Guess What is inside the pot? Is Pig's Ear... Not much of a big deal for you? But in Tupai it means alot to me. Where the hell you can find such a good cook with the best ingredients. FREE OF CHARGE! Master Neil From Shanghai!
With his 30years of training in Wah San of Tuk Ku Kau Kim, he was able to slice the Pig's ears with perfect accuracy & lighting speeds. According to Neil, is better to cut it after cook so that the ears wont be too soft.
De Main Dishes must be the Pig Ears... and the rest are normal stuff. Just a farewell dinner for Raymond as he is going back to HongKong for Holiday. Some lame reason to make Neil cook for us... Hohoho!

Can you smell what is Cruel Angel cooking?

CA's meal must have PORK!!! Is a must to have Pork in a Muslim country to show that there is freedom of FOOD in this part of the world. I dont care what they say about those worms coming out when you pour some pepsi into the pork. Bloody helL! oud ancestor has been eating it ever since we know... Not all worms are bad worms, they might look ugly but they are part of NATURE>
Then, there are eggs... I cant really think of a day I gone past without having at least a big of eggs in my stomach. I guess eggs must be the most important or diversify food in the world. With the power of my wrist due to some intensive training during my teenage years, I was able to produce some out of this world kinda eggs blend...
OK! this fish dead but it still looks tasty. Hermm! Fish here are kinda fresssh. Put some bawang to make it more Wangi. I rarely has fish in Msia unless my mama feed me, same here! I always why people put so much hassle through eating there is so much bones in the fish!
This is the 1st time I slice or cut a pineapple... I thought it was easy but now I know how skillful my mum is. She is the best... It took me about 30minutes to produce this so called a eatable pIneapple..
From left clockwise:- Eggs + cucumber, Pork- thin bone, Fishi, potatos, suasages + beans + greens, & Chicken. None of the above is my creation :p I am just here to appreciate all of this.

Everyone seems to enjoy their meal, I am just happily snapping candid photo with k810i. Not really a bit different from w810i but I will tried that out during my Night Rumble soon.
This one is the "Liong sui" cool water from Shanghai... luk tau sa? luckily I got a good cook in ray & neil really cured my homesickness..

4x4

There is a lotta 4x4 in tupai and usually there are 2 reason why people do that:- To Go off Roads to those Desert Safari and for safety purpose because Tupai driver are crazy they dont even care about others safety. I got my own reason, that's not to get stuck in the sand!!! hahaha!!!
This is my housemate, Nidal trying to pull his boat back home to show it off but it got stuck in the sand... hohoho!!! He thinks he v8 4.8litres engine Nissan Armada would be strong enough to pull that Big Boat over the sand... How wrong was he!

This is the best Dawn picture I took with my w810i, actually Nidal trying is locking his boat with a chain just to make sure noone drive it off. Rich guy!

This is my darling Honda Civic got stuck in the sand when she tried to reverse her car in ANGER. It was 11am in the HEAT of the Summer and it was like 50degree... & the 1st reaction must has been ShitT!!! Her housemate Ann, Ray & Vince insisted the car need to be pull out by a tractors so they go out to look for a tractor but as soon as the tractor arrive.... We notice that there are no HOOK in the front part of the CIVIC.

Luckily she read my blog... So damn Informative! To be honest, this time the tyres wasnt stuck that deep inside. it was just skin deep but largely due to her smartnest & calm nature she stop stepping on the paddle after the car cant move. See MyBlog did something good that day!
It seems the car is in Deep shit from Rear View, but be of no concern because car nowadays usually run on front wheel.... cause it more fuel efficeint & better control for normal person but of coz for a racing car, it would prefer to be run on back wheel or 4x4 just like the famous AE86 runs on back wheel.


I romantically dug some sand from the wheel in under the summer heat then 4 of us (me, Ray, vince & a cha) push the car from behind and with its 1.8 i-vtec engine there is no problem for this car to pull itself up. 0ut it Goes! I am glad that I learn a lot about cars from my brother & dad! I hardly talk about cars in Msia but now I am the expert among my groups of frens...

After 3times stuck in the SAnd, I was really considering getting a 4x4 after all car here is about 3x cheaper than Msia... vince just got his brand new Prado for 110k & Nil a new Mitsubishi Nativa for 75k... Fuel here is cheap & there is no Road text... hermm! But in terms of comfort Saloon car is definaly better.

Hujan Batu Di Negeri Sendiri, Hujan Emas Di Negeri Orang

They said the grass is always greener on the other side, but I found no grass only ROCKS! But those Rocks are really magnificient!!


They is a saying that says that The Moon in the foreign country are rounder... I am not sure about the MOON but the SUN really got a different looks in Tupai. Something like Bloody Red? Armageddon is near?

This sunset view gonna melt every gals heart into your palm... Trust me ;p Even mine are being melted by it!

I think you could only find this in Tupai... 747 on the Road!!! Nah! Just a photographic skills gimmic!!! Kekeke! Notice the White car... that's the original MyVi (Daihatsu Sirion) Yeah latest Engine with 4x4 abilities!

I am sure you never come accrosss this!!! Camel crossing... althought picture not well taken but is worth the publication for the experience alone... CHEERS!!!

This is not an Picture taken in some MOVIE! This is a real life Woman... Althought Tupai or the Arab Areas has grown to such advance developments. There is still this kinda culture of wearing IRON mask... My guess is that is their tradision of doing so, but you can only see really old woman wearing this. Younger generation are more modern & open.

290607

It has been like 3 or 4 years since I celebrate my birthday cause I am not those kinda people who like to be celebrated for something which I didnt achieve. They should be celebrating with my mum because it was my mother's greatest achivement for delivering Alan de Great aka Cruel Angel. Life has been good lately, mainly due to my parents constant prayers for me.
But it was so sweet of Ann, Nil, Jessie, Ray, Lil, Vincent & Evil7 to arrange and emergency party for me at the Jumeirah Open Beach as they only know my birthday in the afternoon on that day. First time also, I celebrate my birthday at the beach, I feel kinda Happy though.. I am a moderate person and doesnt really enjoy too much of attention... Just a few fren would be just nice. Family, friends, a cozy home: These things make you feel safe and secure. No matter what's going on with the outside world, if you know you have a haven you can retreat to, all's right with the world.
As the beach is kinda hot for the Summer, almost everyone is wet to their underwear! So, We decided to change location to A restaurant called French Connection... This is their Famous Hot Choco... CUte? But that day, I just dont felt like letting the wild side of me coming out, but I think that's ok after all... Last night I was drunk like ....

This is the Tiramisu Cake for CA, pretty? The words "SWEET" is suggested by Nil... kinda feel Gayish here... kekeke! Just joking, NIL is a real Macho guy... got the cornerning skills like Schumi & I hope to see him perform with his new Mitsubishi Nativa...

The eve of CA's Birthday he receive some Golden Eggs from a Swan... But it come with a PRICE for the first time since I return from Uk, I vomit like hell... taking alternately Budwiser, Corona, Red Wine & the most "KICK" a few shots (Water Pistol, Blow Jobs & Etc.) Really doesnt wanna experience this kinda of hangover again.

Musandam

Musandam, separated from the rest of Oman by the United Arab Emirates, is the northernmost part of the Sultanate. Due to its geographical position and mountainous terrain it was isolated from the rest of Oman and the region developed at its own pace.
Tucked away into obscurity, overshadowed by the fantastic worldly splendours of Dubai, passed over by shipping routes, Musandam has always been a mystery. Perhaps this lack of knowledge, sprinkled with stories of fjords, mountains rising out of sea and the sultanate’s northernmost settlements has given rise to an almost mythical haze around the region. Not all of it is true.

Graded roads cut across the mountains have now made it more accessible. The grandeur of Musandam can best be explored by sea. There are lotta Mountain Hairy Goat here thus it was necessary to fence up the plant. I even saw some goats climbing TREE!!!

This tour takes us on an adventurous and exciting tour to the capital of Musandam, Khasab, a calm, fishing village and oasis, which overlooks the Gulf of Arabia and the Straits of Hormuz. Watch the traditional lifestyle of the fisherman and the Bedouins. As usual, everyone favourite past time is FOOTBALL!!!
Like Musandam, Khasab simplifies things for you, with very little choice. Chances are you'll find yourself at the Golden Tulip Resort Khasab: it's four-star luxurious, hosts Khasab Tours and Travels and a dive centre. Everything you need for base camp. A double bed room cost us Dhs500 + 17% tax. Damn expensive, I thought next time I would bring my own camping gear, just like last time :P
Your other option could be the Khasab Hotel, but then you would have to do without everything we gorged on at the Golden Tulip: gargantuan burgers with egg and cheese, sinful scoops of chocolate mousse and enough comfort to sink into after a long day in the mountains or at sea.
This is the cheap restaurant we had few of ours cheap lunch here... Is actually indian food. Quite tasty & cheap compare to Tupai.
There are two main experiences in Musandam: the sea and the mountains. There really isn't much in between, and your activities are spread thinly across – dhow trips, dolphin watching, diving, 4WD exploration and a bit of hiking. Although most of Musandam's terrain remains inaccessible.
Cyclone Gonu left trial of destruction like this "Coffee Shop" totally wash out by the storm. This is nothing compare to what Happen to Muscat where all the car piles up.The coast juts into the Strait of Hormuz and extends some 600 kilometres. Due to the Sssstrong Waves, the Beauty is being destroy & the water is muddy. There are some 2feets steps created from the waves.
I guess it will takes months before it restore to it natural state. When I came here almost a year ago, the beaches was pearl white & the water cyrstal clear.

These spectacular fjords have given the area a second name “The Norway of Arabia” The Strait of Hormuz is only 60km wide and does not exceed 60m in depth and is of strategic importance to Oman as 90% of all the Gulf's oil trade passes through this area.

Occasionally from the Road site, you can notice some Hairy Mountain Goatss climbing rocks & Jumping on top of the tree... These are breed goat which shelther is build among the rocks.


Unforgettable day cruising along the “Fjords of Musandam” on board a traditionally decorated Omani Dhow, where you can sit comfortably on cushions and carpets while feasting your eyes on the striking scenery. A Dhow trip to the fjords offers an insight into its fantastic landscape. For most, though, Musandam means the sea, and the only contact they have with land is the rock that rises out of water.During the Dhow cruise you can cruise into the Straits of Hormuz and discover different villages. Beside meeting a Giant (only able to capture the hand), there are small villages nestle along the tortuous shoreline, most of them only accessible by sea, like Lima and Kumzar. The Dhow is anchored at the famous Telegraph Island, where you can swim and snorkel in the clear waters. He is our pro divers (PADI licensed) Raymond from HK teaching evil7 swimming while molesting him. The water is clear but there is no fish :P. There is also the possibility to see dolphins during on the way. And on that day, the captain told us the chances are not that good since Gonu Cyclone has just past by. But we are so lucky to see at least 10 of them with 2 baby... Damn Cute. A buffet Lunch, refreshments, soft drinks and mineral water will be served and is included. And occasionally, you will see some naked guy sunbathing & showing off his body... U Jump... I JUmp... The Arabic wayss! Really cant understand their mentality. Everyone is down to bikini they still cover like winter clothing... :(
Using 4 Wheel Drive vehicles on a panoramic journey into the barren interior; we drive the mountain in Musandam. This tour will give you an opportunity to enjoy the dramatic scenery of Musandam’s mountains, speckled with fossils dating back several million years.This is a calm and peaceful mountain where one can cherish the beauty of Musandam in the plateau.A stunning view overlooking to Indian Ocean side, you will be surprised at the scenery here. Musandam, even up close, remains a bit of a mystery. What is certain is that it has potential, this nether region of forgotten rock rising out of sea. You must go there, even if it's just once, to experience it yourself and put to rest rumours and stories that only seem to come from others. The real story is yours, and Musandam is a blank canvas open to any way you might look at it.
