Melaka : Jonker Boutique Hotel Review

#Throwback

Last year, sempat ke Melaka for short trip sbb husband tak lama dah tak p sana.. Melaka is one of historical state in Malaysia and received World Heritage title. So it is a must visit to Melaka. 

First thing bila decide nak p Melaka...harus la mencari hotel...ehehehe... Even ada je kakak kat sana, tp saja je nak merasa hotel kat Melaka. Lepas Google dan Google review org and promo online... kitaorg decide duduk Jonker Boutique Hotel. 

Outside Jonker Boutique Hotel:

Bilik kitaorg menginap masa tu : Premier Deluxe Room 

Masa check in...dpt complimentary drinks upon arriving...hihi...kalah 5 star hotel.  

They provide parking for customers too. Cons dia takde lift ehehe...but they provide service to take ur bags sampai bilik. Cuti dua hari je...tp beg mcm cuti semingu...:)

Ada restaurant kat tepi2.It is a Chinese area so rasa mcm di China town. Only 5 mins walk to must visit historical area : Kapal Belanda, A Famosa and etc

Spacious, mengadap ke jalan tp mlm pun tak bising...maybe sbb time tu bkn school holiday kot, even kedai in surrounding area pun tutup awal.

The room design and theme is very unique. (as shown in online hotel reservation)

Plus bersih. Thumbs up!

Here a peek to our hotel room  :

  the toilet requested with bathtub :)

 open wardrobe is very practical :

Overall, utk sesiapa yg nak mencari hotel di Melaka, Jonker Boutique Hotel patut letak kn dlm list :)

p.s: Have a nice trip to Melaka.

1 minute virtual-visit to Dubai Miracle Garden

Super quick travelogue..ehehe... we was here..when arrived it kind of late..so u'll see direct sunlight in the vids. But we are lucky as we go during weekday so there are not so many people...however when it turns night, we've seen many people are coming in. We was told by the supervisor that handling this project, they took about 3 months to complete the garden. They first opened the garden on 14th February 2013. This is the massive flower garden here and a must see during Winter-Spring  in Dubai. Situated beside Dubailand & open from Feb-May every year (InsyaAllah) .

Jom virtual visit to Dubai Miracle garden. Sorry this is only for fun, so it is not superclear or high quality video.

Alamak lagu depan ter-cut pulak...Huhuhu...Sowii...malas da nak redo...even tak susah pun nak re-save..boleh tak. :)

P.s: Again...thanks abg for bringing me here :)

Terminal Amanjaya, Ipoh

Cuti-cuti Malaysia bulan Oct 2012 aritu.. setelah sekian lama tak naik bas balik Penang. Semenjak drive, dah malas nak ke stesen & beli tiket..kl ikut tu lg mudah (bak kata org , pejam mata pun sampai) :) tapi balik aritu coz keta kat Penang, Alhamdulillah dpt naik bas lg. Ehehe...da la t'salah naik bas, seb baik leh lg tukar kat Hentian Duta. Naik Trans msa tu.....kitaorg ingt direct je sampai Penang...ttba bas melencong masuk kat Ipoh.

Waa...terpegun dgn tempat hentian bas ctu : Terminal Amanjaya , baru lg..

 sbb kan msa tu dah mlm, byk kdai2 tutup..tp kl tgk2 tu byk jugak kdai mkn, restoran Nasik Kandar pon ada..ehehe..tp  terceruk sikit..takpe la bg support jgk la jualan kat astaka, ada farmasi & kiosk..lengkap toilet, tempat solat..tmpat tungu bas pun best..

ala2 hentian Melaka..tp ada penambah baik kan sbb diaorg sedia kan monitor utk bas yg dah sampai or nak gerak..mcm airport gitu. ada org yg tungu utk tanya jgk...

.

Pasni passenger bas tak la nak sesak2 dgn pemandu kereta kat hentian highway msa nak rehat2 (rasa nye la...coz kwsan tu bkn kat hentian2 tepi highway). tp org sekitar maybe la..lg pun dkat dgn Mydin; besar betoi.. :)



Tahniah Ipoh! Kipitdup :P

Bercuti di Abu Dhabi, UAE..

Waa...lama betol tak update.. ehehe...as if i'm too bz.. cewahh... nothing that important, just get back to real life..buat kerja2 rumah sahaja..

Dis blog dah mcm diary, i love to keep writing something sweet in life here & there...and in other few years later reading them & smile. insyaAllah.

One more sweet memory, cuti-cuti Abu Dhabi.. hihihi...dah mcm 2nd Honeymoon pulak...it is fun dapat tgk tempat baru. Thanks for hubby yg rajin bawak jln2.

Bila cakap Abu Dhabi, it's a must must visit to the Grand Mosque. Ok, 3 words for the Grand Mosque are tremendous,  fascinating & unforgettable unique. Facilities kat sni pun setanding the structure.This is one of the captured in the night.

this is the 2nd time ke Abu Dhabi but yet takde luck utk masuk ke Palace. Last time g, hari tu bukan visiting day...dis time g, pihak Palace ckap dah open everyday, but need to do reservation dat day coz masa tu public holiday. ni je dapat capture dr luar...InsyaAllah, mana tahu satu hari t dapat masuk...aminn.. :)

Another landmark when visiting Abu Dhabi is The Ferarri World..ehehe...kat sni yg suka F1 mmg patut visit....im not into car race sgt.....but the place is super cool that even u like or not the F1, it is worth a visit. During summer, roller coaster dia tak bukak...so tak dpt la nak experience the shouting or cheering for the thrill dr org yang naik... for me...errr, dr kecik never try roller coaster & don't even think to try...(takuttt)...i'm only into the Big Wheel & Mary Go Round...& belum try tp teringin...the T-cup ride...hahaha...( that is enough to make me shout... :P)

Ok, next visit is The Saadiyat Island Gallery & Museum, tak jauh dr Ferrari World at Yas Island. Gallery dia bakal bukak on 2015 if not mistaken...so in few years coming, ley la revisit... Museum dah bukak..& visitor can get info from there about the Island. Saadiyat Island is apart of Abu Dhabi & currently di bangun kan secara besar2an... Rasa nyer tarikan kat Saadiyat Island is the Cultural District which we visited.

This is the one of new place for my 2nd visit kat sni selain Saadiyat Island... Emirates National Auto Museum...oohhooo best best best...hahaha... Sebab kan jarang g Auto Musuem & jumpa byk2 kenderaan pelik2..so this will be having more notes that the other... Kat cni ada private collection kereta & other type vehicle own by H.H. Sheikh Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan. He is one of the member of Ruling Family in Abu Dhabi. Ada lebih 200 collection kat cni....he loves car & vehicle & dapat gelaran The Rainbow Sheikh. u can see kebanyakan kereta di warna kan dgn kaler rainbow or ade symbol rainbow... here my favourite, Merc yg di accessories dgn gold 18K. Gorgeous!!!!

Ok ni collection yg femes jgk :

Setiap satu kereta di warna kan dgn warna pelangi...
When u first enter... sure cannot miss this Dodge Truck ...the largest & inside ade bilik tidor , ruang rehat, tempat memasak & toilet. It is just not a Replica, but once having real engine..

The weird award collection goes to The Globe... ehehe...- ada baca2 dr internet... this is also a car... & dalam tu ada 9 bedroom & 4 storey kereta...

Museum ni agak jauh dr bandar Abu Dhabi...hihihi....ok tiring but after arrived...ok mmg totally worth...

Ok la..takat ni dulu Abu Dhabi. :) soon will write my other journey & travel...


p/s: thanks Abg for bringing me to all over the world which I never had a dream of to be...but this is much AWESOME than dreams!!!...hihihihi...

I had captured pengumuman puasa tahun ni di Dubai... tak sempat captured dari awal coz tak tau pun mula2 dis is the announcement...dr pkul 7.30p.m until 9.00pm dok search channel yg buat pengumuman... dah la tak paham bahasa Arab...until we came across a channel & nasib baik tak terlepas caption kat bawah yg bagitau, sok nye puasa ( 20 July 2012) sbb actually dok bajet sama mcm kat Malaysia yg dah umum awal on 21st July...ehehehe...

Alhamdullilah, hari pertama buat open house iftar dgn kwn2 abg...thanks for coming & celebrating first iftar with us...buat rasa rindu nak berbuka dgn famili..terubat jgk... :)
(huhu..i had a vid only...but then...p mute plak dah. i'll ask from friend if she did captured..)

2nd day, berbuka bersama Sultan Kelantan yg singah kejap ke Tanah Arab ni...first time tgk dia...btul mcm org ckp & bc dr internet...a very humble prince... :) Alhamdulliah..Malaysia masih ada Sultan yg mencontohi kepimpinan sahabat Rasullulah s.a.w. InsyaAllah, dia membawa perubahan di bumi Malaysia nanti..

p/s : Semoga di terima amalan sebulan berpuasa ni.... Amin..

Ramadan Kareem,
Sarah @ Jumeirah

The Pearl City of Gulf, Dubai

Safely landed to Tanah Arab on 3th May 2012,  11.00pm waktu Dubai. It has been second time being here. Betul cakap abg...best naik Emirates Flight. 7 jam layan movie je...turun flight mata da mcm alien.hehe.
But the most excited is...to meet my husband. It has been a year of PJJ.. ehehe...Now i'll need to handle my marriage as any other couples do.. I thought it might be hard or whatsoever. Somehow, it is absolutely No..(maybe sbb tak keja kot) & plus when you're doing for someone you loved, everthing is just excitement.
My husband is very helpful & tolerable too...Alhamdullilah for having him as husband.

Hubby da sediakan apartment for us to stay... it is nice & simple..i love that both combination...kiki... Located in Jumeirah Village Circle. Love about Dubai ni...slalu pun ada tema..ehehe.. From the Google Earth nampak kawasan ni design nye bentuk circle. :) 

It has been almost 2 minggu kat sni... i do a lot of cooking than usual...ehehe... err..kalau kat KL dulu...once a week je ke dapur...and sometimes only utk a bowl of Megi :D.. Proudly to said..kini tidak lagi.. Hahaha...
Still trying to catch-up with the routine.

Sesampai je di bumi padang pasir (err.. after a day or two rest/metafora je ayat tuh), as requested by Hubby yang teringin nak makan kuih keria... & for the very first time for me bjaya (like for almost everything)..jeng jeng...
Tu dia... my kuih keria

 

Thanks to my sis utk tips kukus ubi tu..Alhamdullilah.

For my save note, Resipi Kuih Keria (For 3ppl):
Sweet Potato ~500gm
Plain Flour 1 cup
Sugar 5 t.s + Water 2 t.s

Kukus sweet potato tuh... then kupas kulit..masa panas tu, lenyek kan. Then add flour tuh & gaul sebati. Rest the dough to cool up. Pastu bentuk kan ring.. I like mini keria..so i mould them smaller. Now boley goreng.
Utk sira kan gula tu, panas kan gula + air tu.. until cair & btali.. then masuk kn keria yg da goreng dlm tu..bg gula tu rata kat suma keria.. Then angkat & rest it to air...bg gula dia keras.. :P

Ehe..ok la... need to do some search & listing..we will be having a housewarming this Friday. To be continue..

Best Regards,
