Modesto, The Curve, Mutiara Damansara

Modesto @ The Curve is opened finally!!! Tried Modesto at Orchard Road, S'pore last year and love the thin crust pizza very much!!! Is the best pizza I've tasted until now.

Ordered fresh orange juice, very costly. @@

50% discount for pizza and pasta during lunch hour! We chose Hawaiana, only one standard size- Large. 8 slices of pizza only for RM15.50. Unbelievable right??

Btw, this is for free, don't know what is its name. Very crispy with the taste of garlic bread.

Look at this, I love this crispy thin crust pizza veryyyyy much! Next time should try the pasta... during lunch hour, haha.

And I ate Daim Cake again at Ikea during tea time, second times in 3 days, so crazy~

Drug Company Gifts, Again

Attended a drug talk last week and got some goodies from the drug rep. Whenever there are goodies from pharmaceutical companies, I'll think of pen and recycle bags. I've tonnes of recycle bags and don't know where to store them. ><

Fridge magnet, pen, key chain

Exforge = power?? Sport car?? No idea.

Quality not bad, but too big for me.

The Pharmacists' Workshop on Ophthalmology- The Saujana, Kuala Lumpur

Last Sunday I attended this free Pharmacists' Workshop on Ophthalmology organized by CMPMedica & sponsored by Allergan. It was held at Saujana Hotel, on the way to Subang Airport. The workshop is very good since it caters for pharmacists only and cover a few topics such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, floaters, age-related macular degeneration, red eye, dry eyes etc. The speakers are eye specialists, ophthalmologist, chief pharmacist from International Specialist Eye Centre. I enjoyed this workshop because we just have to sit down and listen, no need to do anything and just to gain knowledge. Btw, the food provided is good, although the smoked salmon fish was too salty for my liking.

Sometimes I find myself very outdated after working for few years in the same kind of environment, especially being stuck at my current kk. I really do not understand why some people can work for 20-30 years at such an old kk without getting bored of it. Before I get my transfer or resign, I'll attend more of these workshops so I can meet new people, gain some up-to-date knowledge and improve myself. I don't want to become a pharmacist who only know how to dispense cough & cold mixtures. Luckily my kk still have a full range of list A medicines with the well-known FMS around, and I'm staying at Klang Valley area. My next plan is to start my locum asap, although I know it'll be challenging. Have to learn to deal with Caucasians, haha.

Goodies

A MUST Go Coffee House- dr. Cafe Coffee @ Solaris, Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur

Last night my sis went to search for Tenji, Solaris as her company going to treat them buffer dinner there. Really envy those people who work for private, always get high bonus or complimentary dinner at 5star hotels and expensive restaurants.

Anyway, later on we went to dr. Cafe Coffee house for a drink. Heard that it's quite famous and serve the best coffee in the world ( a bit exaggerating), not sure how true it is. People who know me well definitely know that I'm never a coffee lover. However, I ordered a cup of ice mocha caramel (RM11.55 nett), just wanna taste how good is the coffee.

Nice interior design

Lots of dessert too. We've taken away some for my youngest sis who's suffering for her exam, hahaha

Coffee bean for sale

Mug & Cup for sale. Will be a good choice as Christmas gift

Ice Mocha Caramel- Look so 'kao', not bad, but honestly I don't know how to differentiate coffee, haha. For those people who don't fancy coffee like me, there're many types of cocktail and juices for you to choose from, an addition point compared to other well known coffee shops where you can only order coffee, tea or soda drinks. My friend tried a drink called Relax (RM10.50 nett), very refreshing, cooling and nice.

Very comfortable seats with cushion. Wifi available and the speed is ok. Snapped all the photos with my fren's iPhone 4. Really like the environment here, not too crowded & noisy like StarXXXks or Coffee Bxxxx, spacious, comfortable, good service...

Some people prefer to sit at higher level with ordinary chairs and table. More suitable for interview, business or career-related discussion, lol.

To learn more about this cafe, visit its official website.

Suspected Dengue?

2 nights ago, I started to feel nauseated, stomach cramp, fever, chills, headache and generalized body ache. The body ache was so torturing that I couldn't sleep well, the feeling was like someone non-stop hammering you. The stomach cramp was unbearable too, but no diarrhea.

Yesterday morning I went to polyclinic to seek treatment, reluctantly. The pain was so killing that I walked like an old lady. I was not given any medications as the doctor knows that I've all the required medicines at home. Since I was suspected to have dengue, he told me to monitor my own body temperature regularly, and I bought the Wellmex glass mercury thermometer from his clinic. When I was at home and wanted to check my body temperature, I realized that the thermometer is damaged... The reading always at 38C even I tried to immerse it in a cup of ice water. >< But I was too weak and lazy to ask for refund from the clinic, whatever, just pop Paracetamol into my mouth when I feel feverish, I know it's subjective though.

The body ache already subsided last night after I've taken Ponstan. Now I've occasional fever, stomach cramp and nausea, but getting much better compared to yesterday morning, at least I could sleep well last night. Tomorrow going to my KK to do blood test, hopefully everything turn out to be fine...

UniQlo Opening @ Fahrenheit 88 Store - From Tokyo to Kuala Lumpur

Today I went to Fahrenheit 88 for the opening special of UniQlo, thanks to Uncle Lawrence, Uncle Jason & Aunt Chris for the 'offer'. We managed to get into the store easily, but I have to pay salute to those people who queued up patiently for their turns to 'maneuver' into the store.

Advertisement and banners are seen all over the corners.

People already started to line up before 10am... ><>

Here I come...

UniQlo

Not all items have special offer. Most of the items with special rate are Fleece, UniQlo Jeans (UJ), UniQlo T-shirts (UT). I bought 4 pair of jeans with the special price of RM49.90/pair, usual price RM99.90. The quality is good, soft and light. Bought micro fleece too, but the design I like the most don't have my size, sigh. ><>

Look at this! Sign board for those people who are not sure where does the queue start and end! You have to queue for fitting room, for cashier. Btw, Amex is not accepted by the cashier counter.

You have to line up for at least 20minutes for the fitting room... so my advice is GRAB as much of clothes as you can and RUSH to the queue or else you have to wait even longer period.

Line up for cashier. There are 3 floors, so better pay at the second floor as the crowd of people is comparatively less.

Scratching head... which one shall I pick?

Buy RM200 and above and you will get this recycle bag for free.

After shopping, we went for lunch in a restaurant nearby.

Drunken chicken noodle... yummy!
