Mooncake Sifu of Genting & Make my own!

Genting invited some bloggers from nuffnang to gather and had a moment to taste Genting's authentic yummy assorted mooncakes. I wasn't invited but I was still interning there and my exec was so nice to let me loose so that I could join them while cover the event for social media. :D Of course, I took my chances to blog about this occasion too!

Before this, I've already bought some back for my family and friends. Genting started selling mooncakes rather early as mid-autumn festival is only on 30th September 2012. Plus, early birds gets 20% discount and 30% for those buying 50 boxes and above.

I'm not gonna explain everything so please check http://www.rwgenting.com/ for more mooncake information.


Let's get started with the mooncakes itself.

My preference are Snow Skin Mango Paste, Snow Skin with Kiwi Fruit Paste, Low Sugar White Lotus Paste, Red Bean Paste, Healthy White Lotus Paste with Spirulina Skin, White Lotus Paste With Black Sesame Yolk (I wish it is without yolk)

In short, I'm not a yolk in mooncake person. Thus, as much as the Golden Jade with Single Yolk is yummy, is not in my preferred list due to the yolk except for the black sesame because I love black sesame. Rather bias that way.









Preparation tools and ingredients + meet the people!

















In the process of learning!








It's my turn!
Steps to remember:
  1. Roll the skin
  2. Wrap the skin over the paste
  3. Push it into the mold and 
  4. BANG! BANG! BANG! the mold on the table to get you mooncakes out. 





 This is too dry! Tips: not too much flour when rolling your skin.











But some of us are not so lucky :( 
Accidentally hit the mooncake while trying to get it out.


It's ready to go into the oven!

How To Enjoy Ramyeon/Instant Noodles At Han River When In Seoul! \\ What To Do In Seoul

Image
I believe it was early last year when a video of people cooking instant noodles and enjoying them by the Han River in Korea went viral. It was a super cool concept and I told myself if I had the chance to go around Seoul myself, experiencing ramyeon at Han River will definitely be on top of my list. Many months later, Dex and I had a trip to Seoul and did this together. While planning this trip, I was so focused on trying to find which Han River that has this special cooking machine. I thought it was only one particular place sell this but it's actually not. I believe by now, pretty much any park that's by the Han River allows you to have this experience as long as they have a convenient store. We've chosen to visit Yeouido Park by the Han River since it was one of the recommended place that my sis-in-law mentioned and she's not wrong, the park was beautiful. I personally do recommend this park too.

Printing My 2014 Memories With Canon! [HUGE GIVEAWAY]

Image
2014 has been a year of change. So many things had happened, big, small, good and bad, all I can say is that I am thankful. Or to be exact, I choose to be thankful because some things are out of our control.  I thank God for the great things that happened in my life, things such as getting a job that allows me to travel and experience different cultures, having the opportunity to do what I love which is writing and blogging, and to meet new people as well as reunited with friends that I've not seen for a really long time. I also thank God for the unpleasant moments and experiences because they are priceless, a lesson learnt for me to prepare for my future self. Not only making me stronger and more mature, but it also taught me about humility and the gift of silence.
