Car got stolen
July 29, 2009
I went to dinner with my parents earlier by RH Plaza and dad parked near Green Gallery at the side that faced the main road.Â
Food was taking a long time and I mentioned it a few times. I even suggested that we cancel the last order but instead my dad went and double checked whether our order was being prepared. We were told that they were cooking the food and will be sent over soon. Somehow something was keeping us there longer, longer than we should be.
Just before 8 pm we were finally done and walked towards the car. At first I was looking around for the car because I somehow had forgotten where it was parked. The car was no where in sight. Then all of us realised that the car was gone. We stood around for a few minutes speechless and in shock.
As we waited for a ride home, I kept waiting for someone to jump out and say “GOTCHA!” and someone would drive the car back to us, like for some silly joke from a TV show. We parked by the main road with all the hustle and bustle going around between 7 – 8pm for heaven’s sake. How the f*ck did they pull it off?!?!?!
After we got home, we took my car to lodge a report at the police station. I never knew this but the inspector told us that the RH Plaza area has been popular for such activity. Apparently we were also told that there have been a lot of reports lodged for stolen Proton Waja. When asked why, the inspector refrained for commenting. So now I’m totally curious why. Do they target Wajas because it’s easier to break into? Or do they want it for the parts? The thing is the Anybody know? Please enlightened me.
Nothing too valueble in the car other than house keys and some bills. Of course if they wanted to they can come barging in with the house keys and rob us since the address is on the bills. Rest assured tomorrow we’ll change all the locks in the house. I know that I won’t sleep much tonight.Â
What happened to peaceful Kuching? Snatch thieves are on the rise (and I almost became a victim 3 years ago), house break-ins are so common nowadays even in broad daylight, then my dog Shadow got poisoned back in 2005 Â from an attempted break-in that failed so they wanted revenge. Somehow I don’t feel like Kuching is safe anymore. Then again, is anywhere safe anymore?
To the thief/thieves who I’m sure won’t ever read this (but please allow me to vent my anger), I hope you get some form of STD until your privates rot. I hope where ever you’re heading with my dad’s car, you’ll get a flat tyre and when you step out to fix it up, you get run over by a truck after stepping on your privates that fell off.
Little Cottage
June 23, 2009
I’ve been going to Little Cottage quite frequently for dinner. It’s located in Tabuan Laru area. If memory serves me correctly, it’s located in Lorong 2B3. I find the place very homey because it’s actually like a bistro in a house.

I personally prefer the Nyonya food compared to its western food. The western food takes a longer time to be served, obviously because of the cooking time and doesn’t taste that great. The Nyonya food on the other hand is delish and is served really fast because it’s pre-cooked. My favorite is the Beef Rendang!
My yummy Ice Chocolate
Ayam masak merah…MMMmmmMMmmmm
My favourite Beef Rendang. It’s to die for!
Beef rendang + cucumbers + rice = Drool fest

I later found out that the owner of Little Cottage used to work at Denis’ Place, a place I went to a lot as a teenager (which was like 10 years ago) at Main Bazaar.
I’m making myself hungry again. I think I’ll go shove my face in a candy bar. 😛
