Ee Sean - Taekwondo Black Belt In The Making

Ee Sean together with other kids posing with their Master at the end of the Taekwondo class held at the his ex-kindy. The class was continued recently after being disrupted for a few months since last year.

Of A Missing Diamond and A Missing Tooth

Things have been going missing and then strangely reappearing again lately. First it was one of the diamonds in Sue Ching's ring. Sue Ching found out one day that one diamond dropped off from her ring and we search everywhere but to no avail. So we gave up. Strangely after a few days as I was about to start doing my morning exercise I noticed a glitter on my exercise mat and it was the missing diamond.

Then it was the loose front tooth that Ee Sean had proudly pulled out himself. The tooth was wrapped in tissue paper and was left in the Kitchen. That was last Thursday. When I came back from my badminton session, Sue Ching told me that Ee Sean was very upset and was sobbing because the tooth had gone missing from the kitchen. So I looked around the kitchen floor and searched the trash can in the Kitchen, filled with food thrown the previous night, orange skin as well as chicken b0nes. Urghhh! I looked through piece by piece of the trash 3 time but it was not there. I was about to give up when I looked into the dustbin in the living room with a few pieces of tissue and voila, the tooth was there. I was so relieved but at the time Ee Sean was already asleep. I gave him the tooth in the morning and he was so happy.

Sepang Goldcoast

On our way back from Tanjung Sepat, we drove into Sepang Goldcoast which once completed will boast of 22km of beach frontage.

The seafood restaurants at the sales office opens only at 5pm

Chinese New Year decorations were still not taken down. There was a big Chinese New Year do graced by MB and Excos from the Selangor government which included Elizabeth Wong. This was evident by the pictures on display at the sales office

Ocen Restaurant, Tanjung Sepat


Me and Sue Ching decided to go to Tanjung Sepat for seafood after reading an article in the Star Metro two Saturdays ago and the restaurant highlighted was Ocen Restaurant. It's a restaurant on stilts facing the sea. It was such a delight having lunch with a view of the sea and the sea breeze blowing at our faces. But it wasn't easy finding this restaurant. It was tucked way inside a housing area and with no signboards by the main road didn't help either. To get there, we drove about an hour from Seremban through Lukut town (If you are coming from KL, drive past Morib to get here). Upon reaching Lukut town, take a right turn towards Chuah and you will see a Chinese cemetry on your right. Without turning left or right just drive on until you reach Tanjung Sepat. Once in Tanjung Sepat lookout for the Police Station. Once you see the police station immediately take a left turn. Then take a left turn again until you see a Chinese temple on your left. From there, turn right and proceed until you see RHB bank. Ocen is just behind RHB bank. Actually, there are 3 Restaurants adjacent to each other. Ocen is the middle one. If you get lost and need directions, call the restaurant at 03-3197443.
Oyster Omelette or "Or Chien" with succulent oysters and costs only RM13
This must the restaurant's specialty, clay pot Tofu which tasted like shark's fin soup and it tasted better if taken with black vinegar. There were also chunks of crab meat in the clay pot. Price = RM10.
There is a big bottle of black vinegar on every table for the claypot tofu which shows that the dish is very popular. When I looked around, I saw this dish on every table.

Me and Sue Ching were contemplating whether to order crab or not as we were unsure of finishing 1 Kg which is the minimum order. In the end no regrets. The crabs wre so delicious and fresh and most of all it costs only RM34 per kg. We were both very stuffed at this point.
This is the Lovers' Link, a jetty that is located just next to the restaurant.
