A Taste of Nyonya Heritage


Made a trip to Melaka on 8 Nov 2009 and stayed at Hotel Puri - a boutique hotel restored from an authentic Peranakan House in Melaka.

Everything is so beautifully done - lobby, courtyard, antique furniture while retaining the Peranakan Culture.

If you have watched the famous Singapore drama "Little Nyonya", and love to understand more about the Peranakan Culture, a visit to Hotel Puri and Jonker Street is not to be missed.



This picture was snapped at one of the foyer inside the hotel, see those black black thing on the top corner? That's birds' nests.

Wish I'm in Singapore

Went to town today and everywhere was jam, jam and jam. Felt it's so not KK.

Missed the time I was in Singapore early Nov 09. Wish I could spend another 2 days to do some shopping and treat myself to a nice cup of cafe latte and cheese cake without thinking of work and time.

However, that trip was meant for work. And "luckily" I managed to snap 1 photo of the christmas decor at Orchard Road as we were rushing to leave.

Ahh!!! If only I could stay longer...

Test Test

Have been trying to find a balance between work and 'me' time for family, love ones, friends and facebook, so tend to put blogging at the last of the list.

Found this Mail2Blogger function that can enable me to blog on the go... Pity that our local mobile networks don't support blogger mobile yet. But this should be sufficient for the time being. :)
