an unweekend-like weekend

For two weeks of dim sum craving and one lousy dim sum session. I finally got my dim sum today. It was however a rather unsatisfactory meal as people tell me that I've put on weight (although I know that) and no one ordered pau.


And to add to that, my mum told me to go gym because she claimed that I ate a lot. After working from 8.30am to 5.45pm for five days, I think the last thing I want to do on a Sunday is to go gym. But I'm having second thoughts now, after some certain comment has been made.

It's one of those miserable days that I'm having again. Not wanting to do something (eg. gym) just because I'm told to and not having a companion to do something more fun (eg. hitting the mall). It's Monday again tomorrow, how depressing.

Work isn't that bad. It's just that I'm working in an environment where none of the people are of my age. I don't to talk to anyone other than work related conversation (eg. what do I fill up in the 'Incoterm' section in an LC form). People are nice but I don't participate in their conversations probably because of the language. My chinese is horrible.

I'm still contemplating on whether or not I should go to gym. One draw back about going to gym here is the facilities at the place I go to is so limited. So limited to the extend that I puts me off. The gym swiss ball last week was twice the size of this week's. How pathetic is that? It's going to be a size of a basketball by next week.

Italian Mamak

yes, Italian food served mamak style @ William's Corner. It was recommended by my uncle, a real food lover. And whatever he recommends, it can't go wrong.


You'll be amazed how Malaysian and Italian Cuisine can blend together so well. It's located in a residential area opposite the Kelana Jaya KTM station. William's Corner is just one of the stalls operating in the long stretch of Hawkers stall situated by the roadside. Don't be fool by it's appearance, I vision William's Corner being big one day. Here are some of the food that were ordered:

Naan with Cheese and Tomato

This dish really amazed me. Cheese naan served with the kind of tomato sauce that you find in pizzas. My brother loved it very much.

Seafood Spaghetti

Super yummy. The white sauce was really creamy, but not too rich. Malaysian style with Italian flavour. They were really generous with the seafood.

Angel Hair with Butter-fried Lia Liu Har

This one is quite exotic. Angel Hair stir fried with Chinese-style butter prawns with a hint of lemon grass. It was a little sweet for my liking but everyone else enjoyed it.

Butter Chicken Noodles

Ahh, reminds me of maggi goreng. This dish is more Malaysian but again, a little too sweet for my liking. Nevertheless, it was my brother's favourite.

Seafood Risotto (My ultimate favorite)

Ever since living in Melbourne, I've grown a liking for Italian food. And one of my new favourites is risotto. When I saw risotto on William's Corner's food list, I knew I had to try it. It was really delightful. The rice were flavourful and look at their seafood generosity! Seafood Risotto @ RM30
