Peeling Garlic

Hey everybody,

I found this video on the internet about the fastest way to peel a garlic by Martha Stewart. Although I prefer to use my 'lesung batu' to peel it as I only cook for 2, nevertheless, you can also try this method if you are planning the use whole garlic.

Happy trying!!

XOXO :P

A Short Trip to Brussels, Belgium (April 2013)

Hey everyone,

This is my last entry for my holiday in Europe last April. Sorry for the late update, I have just changed to a new unit and the officer who used to be in charge of this desk, amazingly had a backlog since April. Anyway, it's not really a  problem for me.

From Den Haag HS we took a train to Brussels Centraal. I would advice you to study the train schedule so that you may choose the most convenient time and the cheapest train ticket. You may check it here http://www.nshispeed.nl/en. The journey will take you about 2 1/2 hour.

Our first stop was the Grand Place. From the station, you will see the Marriot Hotel. From the hotel, take your right and just go straight and follow the signs. 

Right next to the Grand Place is the Hard Rock Cafe. A must visit place for my every trip.

This is the Mannekin Pis. One of the must see when you go to Brussels. From the Grand Place, just go behind it and follow the sign. You will definitely find it. Around the Mannekin Pis, you will find a lot of souvenir shops with reasonable price.  

Don't forget to taste the Godiva when you go to Brussels. You may also buy the Belgian chocolate at the souvenir shops with a very cheap price. I bought 5 boxes of chocolate for only €10.

Monument of King Albert. To get here, from the Marriot Hotel, take your left.

Palais de Justice, from the Marriot Hotel, take you left and just go straight. It's only a 2 minute walk.

This is the park that we found it near to the Palais de Justice. If only the flowers have already bloomed, this park would have been so nice.....

The Brussels City

That's about it folks. I've already written all the details you need to know on my holiday in Holland, UK and Belgium last April.

Wait for my next entry on our anniversary and our end year trip. These might be my last 2 trips and the next trip might only be in the next couple of years. I'll update you! Chao!

XOXO :P

A Day in Liverpool (April 2013)

Hey everyone,

A day in Liverpool was adequate for us during our visit to Europe.

From the Manchester Airport, we took a train to the Liverpool Lime Street Station which costed about    

£17 return. The journey was about 1 hour and 15 minutes. You may buy your ticket earlier with cheaper price here http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/.

Our first stop was the Liverpool FC. From the city exit at the station, go to your left and  you will see the Queen Square Bus Station on your right. Take the bus no. 17 and get off at Anfield. You will see the Liverpool FC stadium right next to you.

At the Queen Square Bus Station, we found a Halal Nandos Restaurant. So yeay! We had chicken for lunch.....

Liverpool Museum Tour & Centre and Liverpool FC Club Store

Our next stop was Albert Dock. We headed back to the Queen Square Station and walked towards the Liverpool One shopping mall and James Street Station. From there, you will see the Albert Dock on your right, across the street. It took us around 20 minutes. 

Liverpool Eye at Albert Dock?

Our destination at the Albert Dock was of course the Beatles Story. You may also find souvenirs shop at  the Albert Dock.

Then we headed back to the Liverpool ONE shopping mall to do some shopping. Other options will be St. John Shopping Centre and Wayfarers Shopping Arcade which are all nearby.

Wait for my next and last entry on our day trip to Belgium.

XOXO :P
