A Whole New Win

Taipei, Taiwan (Day 3) - Vivibride Photoshoot (DaDun Farm)

This was actually the time we bumped into the other couple who happened to conveniently steal our bouquet. The car was parked outside and we just need to walk down from the Make Up office. We had a wonderful driver whom I forgotten the name. But he was so great that he made a special balloons for our photoshoot. Most people have those round or heart shaped balloons but this driver of ours technically made us a special balloon, hold my umbrella and saved me from being hit by the umbrella when the strong wind blew.

***Our wonderful driver of the day. We tipped him extra on that day. The whole journey cost around RM300 in total.  

***Our lovely balloon on that day. We did not take it along after the photoshoot in Da Dun as he said other couples might want it. We decided to leave the balloon there and let other couple experience the joy of having it.

Tips1# Balloons and fireworks are FOC. Make sure you ask about this during the package sign up. Cause I did ask and they have confirmed with me. Best thing is to write it down, black and white on the receipt.

Our first destination was to Da Dun Farm. During the journey, it was still cloudy and have slight rain. We were blessed as after 40 minutes, upon approaching the Farm, we see sun shining down on us.

 

***Location of the Farm. :)

We selected this location as I am flower craze. My whole purpose of going Taiwan for the photoshoot is because of the flowers. 

*** Be amazed with what they can do with such small pile of flowers.

***A little swing famous for photoshoot.

 ***The tiny flowers that just started blooming

 ***My best favorite spot

 ***I really hoped he took a clear picture of this but he didn't. We have side view of this heart shape only

***This is not sunflower but close enough. There are more flowers here than during the time we took it. It took some time before they start blooming.

Tips2# Do check online on Da Dun website (I know they have one) and see what flowers they have during what month. I missed some other flowers as mine was not in the season. Plus it was raining the night before, making a lot of flowers not bloomed open yet as the sun just start to smile at us. Not forgetting, this Farm charges RM80 per car for entry.

Immediately, the driver starts calling other drivers and tell them Da Dun is good for photoshoot. They have very good relationship.

Tips3# Make sure you know what location you want to take your pictures in. Ask them for suggestion. Tell them what concept/feel you want. I told them flowers and no seaside (We have a lot of those in Malaysia). I also wanted Fu Gu (Ancient) with red lipstick but Chen Lau Sher assure me not to as she said red lipstick might not look so appealing in wedding pictures.

Tips4# We got a wonderful assistant. She helped to repair my HTB make up and hair. I checked with a few friends and theirs did not help Groom do anything. My MUA concentrate on changing clothes, make up and hair do for me while assistant helped my HTB. We were truly blessed to have them both. Chen Lau Sher and Ann from HK. If you happen to see her when you do your photoshoot, tell her Angeline says "Hi".

 ***From a curly hair, it is nicely made into my second style

 ***My superb MUA and assistant. Ann and Chen Lau Sher

Below are some samples of our wedding pictures taken in this location. Like I say, be prepared to be surprised with the result. 

 

Overall, in this location, we started off with my purple dress, followed by white (I did not expect white to start so early)

Love,

Angel

Taipei, Taiwan (Day 3) - Photoshoot Preparation with ViviBride

It was superb early for us and we managed to grab some breakfast in the hotel before heading to war zone. We were advice to go to their make up studio upstairs rather than their ViviBride store. I met my make up artist, Chen Lau Sher (Teacher Chan) there. We actually brought some food packed from nearby bread store but it is not needed as apparently they will prepare some cakes and breads for us. Postings below are some of the items being used for the make up session. I repeatedly mention to Chen Lau Sher that I personally work for events before and did photoshoot + have experience with make up done by make up artist before (which is true). I also told her my preference, I do not like soft make up on my eyes. We need to briefly set an expectation before they start, else, when they don't achieve it, it will be our fault for not telling in advance. They provide nail polish service but only the simple color and not design if someone comes without any.

***My MUA for the day. Very experienced and very professional. Do not get cheated by her no make up look

Tips1# Do not bring too large of a bag especially if you plan to bring the MUA out as the car fits 6 but that includes their props, their equipments and your bags.

Tips2# Remember to request for your bouquet color. I know a lot of brides do not do this and they will provide the pink bouquet probably. I personally love red and I requested for red + some white bouquet. Somehow, when we were about to leave, some other couple conveniently took our bouquet and left us with pink. I insist that I want my red bouquet and Chen Lau Sher efficiently requested and made sure they gave me mine. One other reminder, make sure the bouquet's stalk at the bottom is properly cut. As mine was not cut nicely (second bouquet). It did cross my mind that my initial bouquet that was stolen probably would have been the best.

***Look to the right of the picture, how long the stalk was. But overall shot, only a few was affected.

Tips3# Bring your own ampoule as theirs cost RM50 each. I got mine from SASA in KL and it barely cost me RM20 each (and this is one of the best brand there).

However, do not say no entirely to the MUA. I know they just want to make a living and this ampoule money goes to them. I did say yes to 2 bottles for my face and the rest, my body and fiance's face use the ampoule that I brought. During testing, she just broke 1 of my vial and pour it to test on palm. It was a big waste but it was only RM20 (She was doing a test to tell me mine is not very absorbant, but mine was really good) Thus, she did not refuse. 2 for my face as theirs is one clear and the other with foundation base. I think it brings the same purposed but rather than say "NO" and she screws up my hairdo and make up, I told myself why not. I proceeded with 2 bottles with her.

***This is the brand she was using. Note the grey bottle is the clear ampoule and brown is the one with skin base. 

They were using double lash. Meaning 2 single layer lash to give the ultimate effect to lashes. It is commonly use for photoshoot. Make sure you tell her if you feel uncomfortable as you need to use it whole day long. 

***The after lash effect. I felt like Barbie already. Do not be shocked with my face. Pay attention only to my Barbie lash.

Tips4# If you are able to, get a color lens with natural color. Example, black or brown. Do not go overboard by getting super huge ones, you will not want to look different than usual. Mine was only 14mm and it only has a natural ring around it. My natural eyes are dark brown but I have small cornea making my eyes look hanging in pictures taken. This tip was given by Chew Yee from KL Vivibride branch.

Tips5# Do not worry if your back is not smooth or shoulder has pimples. It is all solved by this little bottle here.

 

***This cream is used generously on your shoulder back and arms. It is to give you a fair effect. I doubt it can be used on actual day make up but in pictures, this works stunningly. 

Tips6# Do not worry if your HTB (husband-to-be) has very soft thin hair. The MUA here are professionals. Leave it to them.

On both bride and groom's hair, they will use a jaggard clipper to make the corn hair effect (its easier to style) and for bride, first hairstyle is always to curl. As it takes longer time to prepare this.

 ***I personally requested Chen Lau Sher to help my HTB add a little lines for his brow. I know how much brow affects someone's look and she made him look even more wonderful.

***Our final effect for 1st make up and hairdo. In case anyone is wondering, my hair is real. She somehow manage to make it look so fluffed up.

Tips7# I colored my hair about 2 weeks before my trip to give some colors for my pictures (I normally don't) This advice was given by my hair stylist who happens to be my closed cousin, Emily. My only slack was I did not do the same for my HTB' hair.

Tips8# It is your decision whether or not you want to bring your MUA out. But I find it wise to bring her out. I paid this much to go so far. I would want to make sure I got different designs for my hairdo in different dresses. And true enough, it was a decision I never regretted.

Tips9# Make sure you make your request for Balloons or Fireworks early. I made mine but somehow they forgotten and did not prepare. Constantly remind them.

Tips10# Final advice on the prep here, bring an Iphone or phone with a good camera if you have. They will keep trying to take it away from you but if your HTB can keep in his pocket, you will get a lot of during photoshoot pictures. It brings more memory than just the one they took. Trust me on this.

Love,

Angel

Layer Layer Crepe Cake

Crepe Cake is undoubtedly a must try cake. Made from many layers of crepe and top with light cream after each crepe makes this cake wonderfully special. Crepe must be thin and cream must be thin as well.

Absolutely stunning the crepe cake.

There are only few places selling it in Malaysia. City centre like KL only has 3 places that I stumbled upon selling this cake- Section 13, PJ, Sungai Wang Plaza and Empire Gallery. None of the list is as good as the famous Nadeja in Melaka town. Somehow the crepe is not so thin. Thin crepe is hard to master and putting thin crepe means you have to put more layer and all this require more time. Guess time is the limitation for good cake but hey.... they are charging similar or higher than the famous one in Melaka, OK... blame it on the cost of rental in city center. 

Well, I drove 2 hours to Melaka recently just because I miss this cake too much. Lucky enough that I have my sister and some boyfriends to company me on this cake tasting trip. 

With more people on the trip, I have more flavors to try on :)

Spoilt with selection of cakes

Reaching the store and spoilt with variety of cakes…. Took 4 for taste and each has its unique flavor. Expensive thou as each cake cost RM9-10/slice. But well, it worth every penny as the cake is amazingly delicious.

The cakes finishes quite early especially on weekend. To avoid dissapointement, you can actually call their store and booked in advance. Heard that even a slice also they will reserve for you. No harm trying to reserve if you really are going there. Get more news on the latest promo via their FB on Nadeje Fan Page

Date with Seremban

I am back with more power and more stories.

Getting ready for FOOD!!!

Been to many places for food for past month and one particular places I wanted to share this round is the Seremban wet market food. Not the raw food of course. It’s the food court on top of the wet market I’m talking here. Foods are great and prices are reasonably cheap.

Journey from my house is just 30mins (Ahem… I stayed at Selangor edge :P).

Seremban has a famous Hakka Mee (RM3.50/bowl-small). Well, it’s written by many bloggers earlier and not going to elaborate further. One word to describe the dish- AMAZING! Looks clear but tasted startlingly with bouncy hand-made noodle. Look for the old signboard.

Deliciously bouncy Hakka Mee

Not to forget the the beef noodle (RM6.00/bowl). They have the option of dry and soup noodle. Personally I prefer the dried one because tasted somehow different. Thick gravy with chunks of salted vegetable slices of marinated meat, dashes of sesame seed lastly the soul for the noodle- the chopped peanut. Perfecto!

Scrumptuos Dry Beef-Noodle. I can eat this over and over again.... Yummz!

Later is their brown squid mee-hoon (RM3.50/plate). The stall is located few door away from the famous beef noodle. Recommend this store as I find others a bit tasteless on their gravy. Fried mee-hoon added with some pork and soy gravy. It tasted bit like the canned stewed meat…. Even better than that and the meat is chewier.

Blended well- brown squid with chewy meat and crispy mee-hoon. 

Remember that I’ve read an article on newspaper on the ice kacang (shredded ice topped with mixture of syrup and many sweet food) located there so my last trip I give it a try. Ahhh…. Bring back some memories of high school. Old uncle operating the stall and everything is prepared by himself. Taste OK bt find it a bit sweet… Dear uncle, people has change to healthier lifestyle…. Keep your sugar level down.

Taste of old school

Bring back school days memory

Adios… I shall keep you guys posted on my food journey.

Photo are for Illustrations Purpose- Old Town Coffee

Worth going>>>>> NEVER!

Yep!!! That’s absolutely accurate when they say that photos are for your leisure view and actual food may varies.

My recent visit to the famous Old Town Coffee located in Times Square allows me to experience the truth about this sentence. I was like why on earth would you show such a delicious food on the menu if one can’t provide such a service of food to the consumer. 

Such a wonderful illustration. Tempted?

Nope! Not the same!!!!

So thin the bread + WHERE IS THE BUTTER????

Disappointed with such a way people are doing business. Its officially blacklisted from the place i'll visit in future. 

Scrumptious Guilin Delicacies- Guilin, China

Going oversea allows me to try their local delicacies and it never fail to impress me somehow with the way they serve and make one dishes. Recently, I went for a holiday to Guilin with my family and I would say the food there is somehow special. Guilin is located down south from China and it was summer during over trip there. Gosh! Life can be so hard to handle when Mr Sun decide to shine you for ongoing 5 days… I felt I'm slight black black after the trip: P but hey!!! Good thing is I am able to try their local delicacies there. Marvelous!

As we are on tour, we are presented with at least 8 main dishes and fruits on each serving.  8 MAIN DISHES? In 1 SERVING?? Yes!!!! 

More or less the environment of each meal..... BLOATED GOLD FISH! BLOATED GOLD FISH!

At the end of each meal, I felt like a bloated gold fish (tanned skin + round tummy + round belly) My o my… but it is indeed a great experience.

Famous beer fish. The taste of beer is mild. Suits all ages but BEWARE... the fish bone  is thin and plenty of it. It's river fish as accordance to them and they only have river fish there :P

Ever tasted a fresh gingko cook with vege. My first trial and i simply enjoy it. Simple dish but tasted fresh.

Fresh soya bean cook with littleeeeeee meat and plenty of sauces.  Nothing to complain about this dish- bean tasted sweet, the sauce are right on taste buttttt can i have more meat please?

Glutinous rice meat ball. Crispy on inside and soft on outside. With the presence of lotus leaf smell its perfect! 

Another must try there. The rice noodle. Cooked with either fresh soup or spicy soup. Garnish with  peanuts, roasted pork. YUMMY!

Stewed pumpkin tasted sweet and unique. 1st time trial and no regret.

The crunchy taste of this chicken is unforgettable. Sideback... it's oily !

This trip is indeed an eye opening of China food. My first time test on their food and its certainly at acceptable level. Wonderful!
