Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2013

One of the most eagerly awaited events in Putrajaya, the International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta returns for its 5th edition in 2013. The festival which is scheduled to be held for four days (from Thursday, 28th March to Sunday, 31st March), hosted at Monumen Alaf Baru, Precinct 2, Putrajaya.

Regrettably, I missed the 4th edition due to hectic work life last year. Thus, I'm exiting till the max now. XD

There's a lot of activities fun things to enjoy. The most awaited is the Hot Air Ballon Ride. As website announced, the tickets only limited 300 per session only!! Counter open time from 7am until 4.30pm and tags will be given out 30 mins before the counter open. We would like to be part of it, but we can't make it, because there's already more than 300 people long queue before the tags distribution start. How unlucky I have to say, we underrated the eagerness from publicity. *disappointed*

There is another exciting event at the fiesta is the 'night glow' event where the hot air balloons will participate in an enchanting light and sound show on night of 30th March. It's culminating in a thrilling fireworks display.

Embrace the awesomeness of the fiesta! =)

Lin Yuan Pumpkin Garden Steamboat Kitchen 淋园火锅小馆 @ Cheras Maluri

It had been quite a long time I didn't visit Lin Yuan Pumpkin Garden Steamboat Kitchen which located opposite Jusco Cheras Maluri. I ever tried pumpkin porridge at many places, however Lin Yuan still my favorite ever. ;)

Lin Yuan won its fame few year ago when located at Queens Park Cheras.

There are three types of soup base available here: seafood, tomyam and pumpkin porridge, which is also the most popular one from what I observed. If you are having only the porridge steamboat, then it will be served in a clay pot instead of steel pot. As well known facts about cooking in clay pots is more healthy and delicious. By the way, there is a surcharge of RM1.50 for each pax if the pumpkin porridge is selected (refillable). You won't regret spending few dollars on the add-on.

The charges is RM16.90 per order pax. This time, we are so lucky to indulge in the rich soupy pumpkin porridge with 2 order pax at RM16.90x2pax RM9.00 from the online promotion as Social Living. ;)

Pumpkin porridge steamboat is Lin Yuan's specialty, extraordinary smooth and rich after adding eggs, an unique gastronomic pleasure.

Waiting patiently for my glorious pumpkin porridge.

Must try the special meat ball at RM15 (10pcs). It will burst with juice when bit. I would say it is the most delicious food in the menu.*yummy*

Go indulge yourself in the rich soupy pumpkin porridge at Lin Yuan Pumkin Garden Steamboat Kitchen. Make sure you go as early as possible to avoid disappointment!

Party 21 Event @ Genting

The Party 21 Event is a very exclusive annual party which only available for invited guests above 21 years old of Genting world Card's member. A couple of weeks ago, I received invitation mail of Party21 from Genting. We get to join the fun. ;D *Tempting and exciting to the max*

Party21 comes with a complimentary room at First World Hotel. Hence, throw off your worries about drive down after party and switch up the atmosphere there. Teehee.

A photo was taken right before the entrance.

We were given a chance for lucky draw by liking WorldCard Facebook Page next the small photo booth. Unfortunately, I’m the only one who awarded Genting point meanwhile my entire friends awarded free hotel. Damn it! I should do blessing before I draw it!

We were given 3 complimentary drinks card each person from registration counter. Of course we need it. XD

21 Event separate into outdoor and indoor area. Indoor area was performed by band and dancer and outdoor was hosted by prerry DJ the entire night. 

Let's start the party! 

Overall it was a very happening event I would like to say. But I was wondering why the organizer set the rule of prohibit alcohol drink at at outdoor area. DJ plays music but listener without alcohol drink just like no meat allowed in Bak Gut Teh restaurant. No sense right? This is worst part for me. 

Anyhow, we still have the good ending with enjoyed one night complimentary after event. XD
