Around 71% of the Earth’s surface is covered by ocean. Three billion years prior to the movement of animal and plant life on land, life within the ocean had already evolved. We are really lucky to have the chance to see those amazingly beautiful fishes and exotic marine creatures from the underwater world in aquariums…
Songs of the Sea, Sentosa (Part 4/4)
“Songs of the Sea” is a multi-sensory extravaganza with dramatic effects of lasers, lights, fire bursts, water jets, captivating music, pyrotechnics and a live cast. It’s the world’s only permanent show set in the sea. An entry fee is S$8 and the amphitheatre is located at Siloso Beach. The show commenced with some happy youngsters…
Sentosa Beaches (Part 3/4)
Sentosa has three beaches, namely Siloso Beach, Palawan Beach and Tanjong Beach. We did not travel any further to Tanjong Beach for we passed Dolphin Lagoon. I’ve already covered Palawan Beach in my previous post. Plenty of beach activities for the fun lovers. We just strolled along Siloso Beach, at the same time, taking photos…
Merlion = Fish + Lion (Sentosa Part 2/4)
When you visit Sentosa, you will see this gigantic fierce-looking creature with a lion head and a fish body. You need not run, ‘cos it’s just a 12-storey high statue but is the tallest in Singapore. This imaginary creature is famously known as the Merlion, the emblem of Singapore Tourism Board. Visitors can take the…
Sentosa island, Singapore (Part 1/4)

Yummy Dim Sum
Restoran Zim Sum is a very big non-aircon dim sum restaurant. It was already filled up with customers when we reached there at 9plus in the morning. We had to wait for seats. (@Penang-Malaysia) Dim Sum is a undoubtedly popular for breakfast in Malaysia. The dishes are usually wheeled around on a trolley by servers….
Penang Wet Market
It is not your regular air-con supermarket with broad range of items displayed neatly on the shelves. You can buy fresh fruits, vegetables, meats and live seafood from different vendors in this wet market which I think is called Ban-San market in Penang (Malaysia). A lady selling fresh fishes, prawns, squids, etc. A fish stall…
UNESCO World Heritage 2008: Georgetown
Added another UNESCO World Heritage site into my list of travelled places. Georgetown, the historic capital of Penang island, is listed by UNESCO in 2008 for its unique architectural and cultural townscape. The City Hall colony building in white. It was a stormy day with huge waves hitting the wall. Fyi, the devastating Indian Ocean…
Randomly Penang
A not-so-nice panoramic shot of Penang island from Queensbay mall carpark. A dark and gloomy day, but like the misty mountain view. Some random food pics to satisfy your sensual side. Penang Hokkien Mee is something I’d not miss. It’s actually a prawn noodle soup dish serves with egg, prawn and pork slices. One bowl…
Ramly Burger
You heard of fish burger, double cheeseburger, ham burger, chicken burger…how about Ramly burger? Malaysians and most Singaporeans surely heard of it and even tasted it. Fellow Malaysians, if you never heard of Ramly burger before, don’t tell me you are a Malaysian. XD I was in Penang and bought a “Ramly Burger Special” from…
