coffee anyone?

this round of pregnancy sees me craving for coffee
i know caffein is not good for pregnant mom but i just cudnt help it.
it starts at first when i cant put any drink into my tekak, end up i tried the black coffee and it works! from then, there goes my coffee crazess
every outing will not be complete without a stop at coffee joint,
sampai my doter pun dah accustomed to coffee haha
there's one time, she pulled 2 chairs together and said ' ni aisyah nk minum kopii..'

last weekend we tried the infamous oldtown kopitiam.. selalu tgk ramai je org so why dun we sample it ourselve kan..
we had the chicken chor fun (kot)cudnt remember its real tajuk, toast, curry mee, hot mocha ipoh white coffe, ipoh white coffee hot nad err tak ingat la wat another drink that hubby had

the verdict :
the coffe was too strong for my liking
and it was not a wise decision to mix it up with choc huhu
but the chicken soup and curry mee was marveles
the toast was the biggest dissappoinment - check out the pic yourselve and u'l know why

see the thin railway of butter? hmm
maybe they'r promoting healthy lifestyle kot hehe

the soup is good, nevertheless.. the day's savior

conclusion: i wont go near this coffeshop again hehe, as long as pak li, uncle lim are around..


the not-so-satisfied me
uh uhhh i look fat!!!

while we r there, hubby tells me story on how the outlet come about
apparently the original ipoh white coffe shop was at the brink of closing down, but one of the loyal customer, a malay guy wanted to buy the shop. the owner asked him why he want the shop, the business is doing bad. the guy told the owner that now its becoming a hype in town for drinking coffee and kopitiam and all bla blaa..
so the owner didnt get to close his shop, instead he embark on that man's idea to expand his business. he start by making the instant coffee packets and sells them to supermarket (do u remember suddenly there's a flock of instant coffee in the market in last 7-8 years?)
after about a year, he manage to locate that poor guy (who was actually almost a branckrupt himself) and paid him compensation for his idea, a mere sum of like 50k or sumthing. that man is just satisfied with that, he said that that's what his rezeki were meant to be.. but he got the priviliged of dining for free at any outlet, no matter how many patron he bring with him.
i dunno how true this story is.. so dun quote me okay
