In the more fun with food category, I bring you Nasi Lemak. These little packets are on the breakfast buffet every morning. I’ve been so curious so I finally got my nerve up to grab one, open it up and taste it. It was interesting, that’s for sure!
Here’s a crazy discovery I made after I turned off the video. This tastes much better after you’ve eaten it. I ended up eating about half of it because I liked the aftertaste. LOL! I’ve never had food like that before! 🙂
Continuing along our way through the center of Kuala Lumpur, we happened upon the Pavillion Mall.
The Pavillion Mall is where Laura and I went to the fish spa, I told David, and suggested we walk around this next mall. We were really hot and decided it would be a good spot to get something to drink and cool off.
We got some water and I ordered an iced coffee from Old Town White Coffee. I ordered the white coffee, minus the white but forgot to tell them to leave out the sugar as well. An interesting drink!
On our way out, we passed by a cosmetics store. I thought it looked like fun so we went in. As we wandered towards the back of the store, we came across a display of
F-cup cookies.
Intrigued, we started looking at the box. Then a helpful sales clerk came over and I began asking her about this product.
Me: So if I take this product, my boobs will get bigger?
Her: Yes, but you really need to take them for 2 months at least.
Me: And then I will have noticeably bigger boobs?
Her: Yes, and the fat that you have at your hips will relocate to your chest area.
Me: Really? Now THAT would be doing something.
Her: Oh yes. And you know the discolorations you can sometimes have on your face?
Me: (Okay, I have a brown spot on my right cheek and I’m starting to get a little suspicious here.) Yes, like this? (I point to my cheek.)
Her: Yes! Well, that will all go away.
At this point I am laughing because it was like she was looking at me and my imperfections and telling me that these magic F-cup cookies could fix ALL of it.
Me: So you know this really works?
Her: Yes!
Me: How? Have you taken it?
Her: Oh no, but I have customers who have taken it and it works. They see a difference.
David and I are both really laughing by now.
So we look at the ingredients to see what miracles are inside these cookies.
Exactly. LOL!
But here are the real ingredients:
Ingredients:
Flour, chocolate/vanilla/strawberry, margarine, powder of preparation soy milk, skim milk, liquid tofu, shortening,starch, dry albumen, powder of beans embryo, Pueraria Mirifica, swelling agent, emulsifier, spice, sweetening, coloring, (annatto,caroten)
Doesn’t that seem somewhat like the ingredients used to make cake? 🙂
If you’ve been following along our trip, you’ve noticed a lot of photos of the Petronis Twin Towers. These are two of the tallest buildings in the world and I am enamored of them.
Yesterday, we got a chance to get really close to them and wowza! I couldn’t get enough.
I can’t tell you how many times I nearly face planted because I was too busy looking up instead of looking where I was going.
My favorite things about the buildings is the juxtaposition of the curves against the straight edges
and the fact that it’s made out of so much steel.
There is a cool sculpture at the front entrance.
And the floor looks like this.
Here are my boys at night.
And from the top of the KL Tower.
Love them! 🙂
I woke up yesterday to a posting on my facebook wall from Laura saying we were going to go to the fishy spa. I had absolutely NO idea what that was so I looked it up on google. Â So we were going to go and stick our feet in fish tanks. Hmmmm. To be excited or freaked out?
I’m always up for a new adventure and, since I have survived rides in the car with Laura’s driver, I figured the fish would be a piece of cake.
We got to the Fish Spa which is in a very nice, upscale mall where the size Large clothing equates to a US size 6.
After paying we had to wash our feet before letting the little guys feast on the dead skin of our tootsies.
Then we went to the tank with the little fish in it.
After a few minutes, Laura asked if I was ready to move over to the big fish. And so we went.
Here’s how the fish look up close and personal.
That was a really interesting and fun experience. I was sort of surprised that the fish didn’t go after my heels more. Because I like to walk around barefoot so much, that’s usually the roughest part of my feet. But my feet do seem smoother!
I think those fishy guys like a little more than dead skin or else my nail polish was just the wrong color. I seem to be missing polish on the 4th toe of both feet! Next time I’ll wear bright red like Laura. 🙂
Willing and adventurous, Lauri tries the local Malaysian fruit, rambutan.
This is a closer look at a rambutan.
