Tok Lat Homestay - A Homey Homestay Near Cenang Beach, Langkawi | I went on a vacation in Langkawi with the #BobaHunterGang at the end of last February, before the disastrous series of Covid-19 and MCO happened.

Everything was beautifully planned by each member of the #BobaGengHunter - the itinerary, the ETS train ride to Kuala Perlis, the ferry ride to Langkawi, the rental car and the homestay throughout the entire stay at Langkawi.
That was my very first time riding the ETS and I AM SO IN LOVE IN IT! I will be using the service again after this, traveling to Penang or anywhere up north, or down south. Once arrived at the jetty, we took the rental car (thanks Cik Lily Putih for arranging the traveling parts) and went straight away to the homestay - Tok Lat Homestay in Kampung Temonyong, less than 10 minutes away from the Cenang Beach.
When we arrived at the homestay, we were awed by the homestay as it was newly built and we were among the first to stay there! The owner was there to welcome us and show us around the house. We stayed at the very first homestay (there are three others adjacent to it and we were the only ones there as it was not a vacation season).

The homey homestay has a large living round with a TV and set of comfortable chairs. It has 3 rooms and each with its own split unit of AC. The first two rooms has its own bathroom attached whereas the last one don't. But there is a bathroom outside, a common bathroom for all. So, it looks like that every room has its own bathroom (so we don't have to fight each other in the morning just to use the toilet hahaha).
There's also a dining table for six just beside the kitchen counter. The kitchen seems to have it all - stove, pots and other utensils to cook. Me being me, whenever I arrived at a hotel, I will always first boil some water, just to prepare some drinking water for all.
And the best thing is, there is also a washing machine, ready to be used by the guests of the homestay. That means I don't have to worry about having not enough clothes to wear while in Langkawi.
Throughout our stay there, I slept like a baby as the rooms were comfortable and as the homestay is not beside the main road, the surrounding was ever peaceful and serene.

Did we cook? NO! Haha. Our itinerary were full, thanks so much to Zharif for devising the best itinerary. We were surrounded by so many eateries that food was not an issue at all. There are also 24 hours grocery stores nearby where we get all necessities - 3-in1 drinks, breads and many more.
Why did we chose the homestay? Of course for its fast service from the provider, EzeeGo Tour that assisted us with the booking, planning the best tours (must-eat places, island hopping, Dayang Bunting Island, Kilim boat trip and etc) and of course, for its very competitive price.
And the best thing is, EzeeGo Tour arranged for a boat exclusively just for us for the island trips. We didn't have to share the boat with other tourists and this works the best for us as we tend to overstayed at a destination (making videos and all hahaha).

The price for the homestay was RM300 per night (RM350 during weekends and holidays), which is much cheaper than RM150++ per room for two per night (you do the maths).
Interested now to get the contact? I know you are.

The Last Weekend Before MCO @ Swiss Garden Genting Highlands | During the very last weekend before the whole Malaysia went on Movement Control Order, I went up the Genting Highlands with some friends for a trip that was kinda long overdue - it has been quite sometime since I last spent time with my blogger friends (read: on a crazy trip).

So, Zharif, Mahamahu and I hitched a ride with Faries and we all went up the highlands right after Friday prayer. Thanks Faries for the ride (you can claim the Starbucks later ok). We arrived at the Swiss-Garden Hotel and Residences Genting Highlands, located around 30 minutes from Tol Gombak (the traffic was light then).
You can actually see the building from the main road, just before the Starbucks Genting Highlands (you know where that is hehehe). We met with Abam Marcus at lobby before he brought us to our rooms - room 3007 for Mahamahu and I, whereas Zharif and Faries will be staying at the room right in front of us. And the room was huge - it is a two-room apartment with all the basic necessities - a complete kitchen and two bathrooms. Since our roomies (Kifli and Helmi) has yet to check in, Mahamahu and I chose the master-bed room as it has a bathroom in it.

Not soon after, Kifli and Helmi arrived and the hell literally broke loose. There were screams of joy as it has been so long since we all met.

Later that evening, we all gathered at the lobby to meet with other media friends - so I got to make new friends there. We were told that Faries and Zharif's roomies will be arriving a bit later so we just gathered around and listened to Abam Marcus' explanation of what is waiting for us throughout the weekend.

Basically, the trip will be super easy and fun for all with emphasis on the facilities and what one can do here while vacationing at Swiss Garden Hotel and Residences Genting Highlands. Apart from spending time here at the residences, Genting Premium Outlet (GPO) is just a drive away from here (the hotel offers pick-up and drop-off using its shuttle, FOC to GPO - just enquire at the lovely people at the front desk.
After a brief explanation from Abam Marcus, we all went back to our rooms while waiting for dinner. Most of us went straight to Level 41, known as Ceremonial Alcove where the view is SUPERB and AMAZING. During a clear day, one can see straight up to the highest building in Genting Highlands, which is the Resort World Genting and other buildings there.

There are two swimming pools here and a beautiful glass house in the middle of it all (the best place to take your pictures - everywhere else is beautiful too). We spent almost 1.5 hours here just taking pictures at every corner of the level - the scenery was breathtaking way from Level 41. Some funny incidents - there were some friends who are experiencing acrophobia (and they should remain nameless hahaha).
We were told that the temperature would drop at nights - but the pools will be heated so that the guest could enjoy the night view here comfortably. And the pools are open until 10 pm daily.
For dinner, we went down to level 5 where The Garden Terrace is located. And I will forever love the delicious Teh Tarik here - I want more!
And not so long after we were seated, walked in the mystery roomies of Zharif and Faries'. Who else than none other than Cik Lily Putih and her husband! I should have known about this conspiracy between these two! The crowd just shouted and cheered on as Cik Lily Putih and her husband walked into The Garden Terrace.
The Garden Terrace became louder and merrier with laughter from then on.

Later that night, a bunch of us went down to the Starbucks nearby, just a walking distance from the hotel before calling it a night.
The next day, after a hearty and scrumptious breakfast at The Garden Terrace, we were shown around the hotel - the rooms and facilities available in the hotel. I will share more about the rooms in another post. For now, it be enough for you to know that the rooms are beautiful, spacious and the view is breathtaking!
And guys, there are activities room too there. It was at level B1 if I am not mistaken where the whole floor is open for activities as there are 3 squash courts, 1 huge Karaoke Room that is adjacent to a huge Games Room. Your family members will not be bored here at Swiss Garden Hotel and Residences Genting Highlands - just head on to the Front Desk and they will assist you to access the activity area.

Later that evening, we were told to dress up as the hotel will be featuring its Ramadhan Buffet. Befitting the theme 'Sajian Warisan Budaya', we were told to dress in the best traditional attire that we have - and man - everyone showed up in the grandest attire that they have!
After the grand dinner, once again, the group went to Starbucks, again. Hehe. Some of us just cannot function properly, not even one day without coffee. Hehehe.

Early tomorrow morning, right after breakfast at The Garden Terrace, we were invited for a zumba session with Dr. Lashela Dharmadass from Toscana Medi Clinic. The session was open to all and soon, the garden right in front of The Garden Terrace was full with happily sweating people, dancing their stress away with the pumping music and the zumba steps led by Dr. Lashela.
Later that day, Dr. Lashela chaired a sharing session about beauty and health talk, focusing on Anti-Ageing and Effects of Snoring. It was such an eye-opening session and I will share more info about the session in another post. There were too many informative bits that I would like to share in depth with all. Thank you so much Toscana Medi Clinic for such an informative session. Bottomline about the session - snoring might be symptoms to other sickness, slowly creeping inside you. Get yourself checked and be sure, rather than be sorry.

It was a short and sweet getaway that I really needed - the rooms are spacious with complete amenities (the residence rooms), the food was tasty and making me wanting more, the activities are endless and the best thing is - the staff are super friendly!

I hope the dangerous Covid-19 will soon gone and we will be able to enjoy our lives as before. And please do visit here to ease your minds from the troubles of the world - I know I managed to do so.

5 Keistimewaan Blueberry Cream Cheese Pie

#1 - Diperbuat dari blueberry dan cream cheese

Gabungan kelazatan buah blueberry bersama Cream Cheese memang sangat padu hingga timbul rasa sedap yang sukar untuk digambarkan. Lembut di dalam, rangup di luar menjadikan ianya makin seronok untuk dinikmati. Bayangkan intinya meleleh bila anda membenamkan gigi ke pie tersebut. Waduh!

#2 - Rasa masam manis dan berlemak yang menyelerakan

Blueberry Cream Cheese Pie ini menjanjikan rasa yang masam manis buah blueberry bersama rasa lemak cream cheese yang lengkap dan seimbang dalam sebiji pie.

#3 - Warna yang mengiurkan

Warna Blueberry Cream Cheese Pie ini pula sememangnya akan menarik perhatian ramai orang, kerana apabila di gigit luaran pie tersebut, akan meleleh keluar warna putih dan ungu yang sebelah menyebelah. Sudah tentu kanak-kanak juga akan sukakannya (dan sejumlah besar orang dewasa kan. Baik mengaku sekarang).

#4 - Memenuhi kehendak ramai peminat pie

Pie baru ini sememangnya memenuhi kehendak ramai peminat pie yang berada di luar sana. Dengan menggunakan blueberry sebagai bahan utama membuatkan ianya satu kolaborasi yang sangat mengagumkan.

#5 - Harga yang berpatutan

Jangan terkejut kerana harga untuk sebiji Blueberry Cream Cheese Pie ini sememangnya murah dan berpatutan. Bayangkan walaupun blueberry dan cheese cream yang digunakan namun harga yang ditawarkan hanyalah RM4.25 saja. Murah kan? Jadi, tiada sebab untuk anda tidak membelinya dengan alasan yang harganya mahal.

Blueberry Sundae Juga Tidak Mengecewakan

Jika anda kurang berminat dengan menu pie, anda boleh cuba sundae sebagai menu pencuci mulut. Sama seperti pie tadi, ia juga dihasilkan dengan perisa blueberry dalam gabungan rasa masam manis yang sedap.

Dah la Rawlins sejenis mudah kalah pada warna purple - semua nak dibeli tau.

Dengar saja sudah buat kita terliur apatah lagi ianya didatangkan bersama cream yang lembut dan gebu. Harganya pun sangatlah berpatutan iaitu RM5.19. Jadi, cepat-cepatlah dapatkannya di cawangan McDonald’s yang berdekatan dengan anda.

Itulah dia dua hidangan baru yang telah ditambah ke dalam menu McDonald’s. Jika tak ada masa nak ke McDonald’s secara terus dengan keadaan yang tak mengizinkan seperti sekarang di mana kita digalakkan untuk #StayAtHome, jangan risau. Foodpanda sedia memberikan perkhidmatan penghantaran pada anda. Apa yang perlu anda buat hanyalah membuat tempahan di laman web utama milik Foodpanda kemudian anda boleh nikmatinya secara terus di rumah.

Tak perlu nak redah keluar rumah, rempuh sekatan jalan atau apa saja. Tak perlu juga nak panik kerana bila-bila masa anda boleh nikmati apa jua menu kegemaran yang ada dengan membuat pilihan makanan melalui Foodpanda.

Yang pasti, dengan memilih perkhidmatan Foodpanda, kita turut menyahut seruan kerajaan tika isu #Covid19 nie kan dengan menjadi lebih bijak dan lebih selamat, #KitaJagaKita.

Pendapat Rawlins sendiri, memang bagus ada servis penghantaran makanan begini lagi-lagi dalam keadaan yang perlu berkurung sekarang ini. Ia juga sangat sesuai untuk mereka yang dah mula rasa jemu asyik hadap makanan yang sama saja tu. Makan McDonald’s pun sedap juga! Food delivery pun dah ada ni.

Rawlins sendiri dah terbayang ayam goreng yang rangup pedas dengan burger Big Mac yang meletup. Ditambah pula dengan pie, oh sedapnya! Eh. Jangan lupa tambah fries dia sekali. Aduh. Now nak sekali iced latte McDonald's plak.

Sesekali ubah citarasa apalah salahnya kan? Apa yang ditunggu-tunggu lagi, jom kita cepat-cepat dapatkannya segera.
