Casino Royale Double "O" 7

Hello and hey my dearest readers. How you doin' my sexy readers? *Wink wink*

This would be one hell of a post. Let me see if I can clear your doubt with just one sentence.

I had finally entered the casino for the very first time.Yeap. You heard it right. My gambling virginity was given to the Casino in Genting. I wore "Tor Haii" which originally it was white in color which then turns to gray/whatever colour you'll see later. Not pretty.

You see, I've always watched too much of Hollywood movies and Hong Kong movies where you have to dress to kill to enter casino while placing a minimum of 10 grand for a bet. HAHAHA. *Insert laughing/crying emoticon* Who am I kidding like really.. The look of the casino was quite grand. The whole atmosphere was so different. The place was filled with the smell of smoke because people are allowed to smoke inside. I see people from all over the world. China(mostly), Bangladeshi(a handful) and lastly, local people. From young adults whom jump from table to table of different gambling games to elderly people in wheelchair playing the slot machines was quite a new view for me. A whole new experience.

As usual, anything that concerns money, I'm quite careful. I don't gamble on something that I don't know. It began with me wondering around the places and started to understand the game by watching strangers playing. I got hooked with "Dai Sai"/ "Sic Bo"or Hazard or something similar to Chuck-A-Luck.

I wasn't great at maths but simple probability hunch would be useful. For example, for the past three out of four rounds, the dice resulted in SMALL, there is a higher probability of the next round opening SMALL. Anyhow all of this is really subjective and usually people played according to their "Feeling"

Finally, I went over a table which attracted me. Part of it was that the dealer was really cute.  The dealer had to do the standard hand movements when people change cash into tokens by scanning and inserting the money into a box using something similar to plastic dough slicer to press it in. Also part of it was- it was occupied by a rich couple. I'm puzzled and attracted at the same time. Why can people sit at the same table for the past few hours? After 2-3 hours I understood. It it so easy to lost track of time when you're in the casino. It's an extremely scary fact to begin with.

You can change your cash into tokens at the game table and there is a cashier for people to cash out their tokens into ringgits or other currency?. I've learnt so many lessons spending 2-3 hours in there. I don't gamble every rounds when I don't feel like it. You should stop playing once you won exceeding your capital. Your greed will only cause you to lose all the money(that includes the capital and the winnings).

I of course was no exception to betting but I played the minimum bet. It's more like winning, losing, winning, losing, losing, winning, winning, losing, losing, winning, winning, losing, losing, losing, losing, losing. Something like that. It went for about quite some time as I did not place my bet for every round. It's more testing the water. Guessing for the next round of results without placing any bets. But the amount of self control needed was tremendous. I almost fell into the- going to place more bets than I have allocated to spend.

It is inevitable to feel that your heartbeat accelerating, red flushes of the face, secretly chanting for the results you bet on, saying "Popi popi" and etc. Winnings made me feel smug while losing made me agitated. It is an extremely valuable lesson that I will not forget the rest of my life. I can proudly said that I've tick off the list of to do in life.

It's best not to enter the casino again because I can see that the temptation is really really great. Anybody can be a gambling addict. It is exhilarating. Winning and losing money through gambling within 2 mins. I did see someone buying RM500 on BIG and lost that round. It was like a drop-jaw-moment for me.

There's a lot of CCTV cameras around and thus I don't dare to take pictures in the casino. Please bear with me.

The slot machines. The only picture I took inside. :(
A moment later I saw security circling around and gave a look like "It's Forbidden To Take Picture"
lol.

Me and my Tor Haii

Oh ya, I'm pretty sure you know that Genting has been closed since last September for renovation or revamp the outdoor theme park. So it's like demolishing the whole outdoor theme park. Fascinating. :D

Before.
The only picture taken from the internet in this blogpost.

Now. :)

I think the renovation will be done by 2-3 years time?
I remembered reading it but I can't remember the exact date of it. :)

Look! The sky is so clear.

I wonder what the new theme park would look like. I'm so so excited! :D

Beside MaryBrown
You can hear the drilling and construction noices.

My niece having the time of her life on the ride. :)

Funny pose. HAHAHA!

 

 

Wefie! Us smiling so happily. Tee hee :D

Ending this post with tiny bit Monday blue. I love this short vacation as it takes my mind off 8.30-5.30 schedule. :) I hope it would be a great week for you and me! :)

Cheers people. :)
Signing off with love :)

The Red Bean Bag/ Salon Du Chocolat/ Caffe Bene

Hello my awesome possum, cute & adorable readers. Yes you! The one reading my blog. *Nods head* This is a super overdue blogpost. Firstly, it happened on last Labor Day. I know right. Only blogged about it now. -.-  Food Hunting Session with my fellow classmates since Advance Diploma had ended. Or at the least at the moment I thought it was. BURNNNNN- HAHAHA.

After my finals, I had a mini outing with my fellow classmates whom were Kathy, Jasmine, Sok Theng and Zheng Khin. It was quite a random food hunting session for us. We went separately since ZK, Sok & Jasmine was from Genting Klang while me and Kathy was from Kepong. :D. It was quite hilarious, we wanted to try Bingsu from Caffe Bene. I googled it and saw its in Solaris Mont Kiara. My brain registered it as Publika. Off we went, reached, parked, and we went rounds and rounds looking for Caffe Bene. So So Embarrassing. Finally, one of us found out that it's not there and we changed to The Red Bean Bag.

ZK: *skeptical face*
(Guava or something like that)
Sok: Me like-y

Chocolate Molten Larva Cake
The white oval thingy coated with chocolate syrup was an ice-cream. It melted for quite a bit while we were busy taking pictures of it. HAHA!
It was so-so in my opinion. I had better. :)

I guess the plus point would be the chocolate larva oozing out upon slicing.
It was raining/ cloudy and we're sitting outside,
not much lighting so pictures doesn't look very appealing.
*GRIN*

Sumo
ZK find this dish "So So".
The onion fritata is weird, it's like hash brown 'wanna-be'.
Maybe it's suppose to be like this. I don't know. *Shrug*

Specialty Baked Eggs
It was okay. There's beef sausages inside. Aubergine& tomatoes too. Loads of cheese. RM18.
The best baked eggs I had was in Nutmeg around 10-11am, where the eggs are really runny.
Ugly but super comforting food.
The second time I went Nutmeg which is around 6pm also for the baked eggs, the eggs was seriously overbaked and thus, it taste no good. Too dry.

Although the food was so so, it didn't stop us from spamming #wefie here and there. Yeeehaaaaa!

oh, we look happy alright :)

Cheeky Faces!

Credits to Kathy for combining the pictures :D

Overall, I find The Red Bean Bag's food overpriced. With the price that we are paying, I expect it to have a minimal standard. Didn't make me go ooh and ahh much. Might need to give it a second chance one day because I have been seeing quite a number of nice reviews on the internet. I think the famous one would be Eggs Benedict with Smoked Salmon?
        

A.K.A "Toilet shot"

The next stop would be desserts hunting session: Salon Du Chocolat

It was a really small shop. Can fit around 25-30 people max?
This is a good shop for those Crepe and Chocolate lover.

What are they doing? ishh

Decent Shot :)

Ze cute couple in Couple Shirts. FYI, they're from TAO BAO!

TEE HEE :D

Omg, it's here, it's finally here! :D

Chocolate Crepe.
This is the bomb! SO SO SO VERRYYYYY GOOD!
They heated the choc a bit so its really tasty/yummy/nomnom-licious

Jasmine and Yours truly. <3
Love this picture although it's blurry and full of noise.

We only ordered one to share among the five of us. It is very filling. Super yummy. The best Chocolate Crepe in the history for me at the moment. HAHAHA. After diggin' in such a good dessert, we then drove off to Caffe Bene in Solaris Mont Kiara. Since it was the main thing that we wanted to try on that day. Wooohooo. Arrived and saw a lot of people queuing up.

The interior of the Cafe

Oreo Cookie & Matcha Green Tea

Everyone wanted a solo picture with the BINGSU. lol.
We are like the new ambassadors of Caffe Bene.
Who did it better? *Smirk*

Candid. Now what was I doing?
Jasmine was smiling so happily eh.

Personally, I don't fancy Bingsu. It failed to impress me because I ate it the wrong way for the first time. You are suppose to mash everything in the cup into like Cendol style so that it will be flavourful. Therefore, I find Oreo Cookie tasteless because I scooped only the ice without other ingredients on my first visit. Big mistake. Huge mistake. Nuff said.

Bonding session with friends and food hunting was fun. Really loved the Chocolate Crepe. Highly recommended to you readers! Maybe I shall go there for another round. Left the last stop feeling really bloated. Burpp!

Disclaimer, it's all personal opinion. Maybe my taste bud wasn't functioning that well for that particular day. It wasn't meant to hurt/ causes anyone to lose their job or whatever. Just my 2 cents. Cheers people!

Love you readers lots & lots. Muaxxxh
