Went to the MIFB today, which is the 10th Malaysia International Food & Beverage Trade Fair in Putra World Trade Center(PWTC), today is the last day which is the only day it is open to public, it was opened only to trade visitors on Thursday & Friday, but little did i know trade visitor meaning people with business cards, your field of work is irrelevant. The advantage of entering such fair as a trade visitors is you can go in for free, public visitors have to pay RM10 entrance fee. Above is a cake decoration session held in AB Mauri booth. AB Mauri has a factory in Balakong producing yeast and baking ingredients.
Spraying yellow paint onto the chicken.
More powder colors onto the cake
More coloring
Drawing the eyes
Finished product
Top right is Ruffles i got from Carrefour, the others are from Thailand, tried the Lay’s onion and cheese, not bad, although quite oily. I really want to rant about getting fat now, have been feeling tired, not enough rest, and eating quite a bit more, and exercising only once a week although like to do it twice… grrr… fat away from me… -_-“
and not forgetting the porky meal i just had in South Jinjang-Restaurant Soon Heong, pork ribs bak kut teh, fatty pork stew, pork liver/kidney, stew chicken wings etc… and i had dried style noodle with pork this morning, and tried all the random food stuff in MFIB, then a McDonald’s Fillet ‘O Fish lunch value meal(RM5.95++) for lunch, FATS, don’t you find it kinda annoying when girls complains that they are fat when they aren’t? but i think i am fat ass…
* all today’s food photos are taken with Olympus Fe-20, nope i didn’t buy a new camera, just using my mum’s camera, a 8MP instead of my regular 4MP Pentax Option S4*
** more MFIB photos in next post

Mushroom soup + refillable ice lemon tea for RM9.90 (Add on to a main dish) Mushroom soup is a refreshing change from usual whitish mushroom soup although taste is just ok.
Garlic Mussel, love dipping the bread into the garlicky sauce. yum yum, RM16.90
Bake Dory Fish in Herbs, taste a bit odd, and the herb made the fish look a bit unappetisingly greenish, RM21.90
I still prefer Fish & Co over Manhattan Fish Market
