Cameron Highlands..

I just had one of my best holidays for this year, in Cameron Highlands. Number 1 - because it was with my family!! Number 2 - because i love the hotel and service they gave me!! Last but not least the cool weather!!!

Total there were 9 adults and we drove up in 2 cars. My daddy, mummy, brother, sis in-law, grandmother, aunty moi(grandmother's classmate), Uncle Lok (Aunty Moi's hubby), Jon and I. Yes you read it right!! My grandmother's classmate since primary school!! In case you wanted to know.. my granny is 83 and she is 84!! (hehe)) Shame on some of us!! How many of us still keep in touch with our primary classmates!! I'm NOT one of them... Mua ha ha..

We checked ourselves into Cameron Highlands Resort. I highly recommend this place!! The room is fantastic, the service is 2 thumbs up and the food is not bad for "Cameron Highlands" standard..:) We actually didn't do much there. Most of the time we just EAT!!! Sleep!! Chit Chat!! Eat again.. and eat some more...

Ramly Burger...

To my dearest cousin Mei Sim...

This is what you've been asking for....:)



Ramly Burger does not need any introduction to Malaysians!!!!

The Ramly Burger, also known as the Burger Ramly, is a Malaysian burger created by Ramly Moknin popular in Malaysia and Singapore. Though the term "Ramly Burger" may refer to any of the hamburgers sold in a Ramly Burger stall, it most commonly refers to the Ramly Burger Special. While the amount and type of ingredients vary greatly depending on location, a typical Ramly Burger consists of a beef or chicken patty, margarine, onions, an egg, cabbage, mayonnaise, and Worcestershire sauce. This list is subjective, however, as Ramly Burgers are famous for being highly customizable.

Burger Ramly started out in 1979 as a small family business operated from a mobile kiosk on Lorong Haji Hussin in Kuala Lumpur. The family recipe soon became a hit among Malaysians.

The Ramly Burger is distinctive from most other hamburgers due to the unique way in which the ingredients are served. Rather than the usual method of stacking the ingredients within the bun, the patty in the Ramly Burger is first covered with the desired condiments, then wrapped in a thin layer of egg. The end result is packet-like and enhances the texture of the burger while simultaneously reducing mess from the condiments.

Nothing beats having Ramly burger with a can of Anglia Shandy!!!

Baby Molten chocolates anyone???

My maid is back!! i'm so so happy!! I got so excited!! It was even better than closing my biggest sale!! haha...I went home after work and i baked these. Super easy!! very yummy!! and very fattening...(once in awhile it's ok)

Hope you like it as much as i did!! (Wink*)

All you need....

50g soft unsalted butter, plus more for greasing

350g best dark chocolate( I use valrhona)

150g caster sugar

4 large eggs, beaten with a pinch of salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

50g plain flour

How to make::

Unless you are making these up in advance, preheat the oven to 200°C.

Melt the chocolate and let it cool slightly.


Cream together the butter and sugar. Gradually beat in the eggs and salt, then the vanilla.



Now add the flour, and when all is smoothly combined scrape in the cooled chocolate, blending it to a smooth batter.

Divide the batter between the 6 moulds. Cook for 10-12 minutes (the extra 2 minutes will be needed if the puddings are fridge-cold when you start) and as soon as you take them out of the oven, tip out these luscious babycakes onto small plates or shallow bowls. Serve these with ice cream.

Serves 6.
