Hongkong Shenzhen + Disneyland trip 5d4n ( Day 1 and Day 2 )

 DAY 1    ARRIVE HONG KONG

 Upon arrival in Hong Kong Airport we had been greated by tour representative at "Exit B 12 " for transfer to hotel for check-in. (SIC).
Rest of the day free at own leisure.

Kami touch down dalam pukul 11am. Masih awal lagi kan.. Jadi selesai check in hotel, kami bersihkan diri memasing, terus keluar jalan2.. pusing2 melawat kawasan.

Own arrangement : Avenue of Stars, The peak,Ocean Park Hong Kong, Kowloon Mosque

 

Dah sampai kat Tsim Tsa Tsui.. salah satu bandaraya kat Hong Kong.

Inside train to Tsim Tsa Tsui.. nampak gugurl ni main2 kat tiang tu. Do u see what i saw?? the boom boom pow. Cobittt pipi tu karang.. ade jugak yg kena tido balai. hehehe..

X susah pon nk jalan2 kat Hongkong ni. sbb subways and train dia semua kat centre of the city. So senang la. Yg penting kita tau nk pegi mana.. then follow j the flow. Kami dapat direction from the hotel staff mcm mana nk heading to the nearest train station. Train dia pon senang nk paham. InsyaAllah.. x sesat la haih.

The hotel staff siap bagi map lagi for our easy reference.

Gigih la naik turun escalator untuk naik subways. Dalam subways ni dah macam shopping mall dah kot.

Mula2 skali kami cari Masjid Kowloon or Islamic Centre kat sana. Dapat la solat jamak kat sana dan buat ape yg patut. Sebelum nk g jalan jauh2 g tmpt org, sebaiknye niat la nk pergi kerana Allah. InsyaAllah berkat.. dan semoga Allah murahkan rezeki kami lagi untuk pergi tmpt lain pulak. Amin..

Nak cerita sikit pasal Islamic Center kat Kowloon ni. MasyaAllah, penuh orang k. Sepenuh2 nye.. dan ada banyak xtvt.. mcm usrah, tadarrus, ceramah. MasyaAllah.. walaupon komuniti muslim kat situ mcm minority, tp masjidnya hidup. Kagum Cik Lyzz. Alhamdullillah.

Dah selesai solat, kami cari tmpt makan. Since kami dah berada kat Islamic Centre, x susah pon nk cari makanan halal. Keliling tu banyak halal restaurant. In fact keluar dari masjid j, ramai pelayan2 restaurant tunggu kita n promote restaurant derang sambil bagi flyers etc.. so pilih j la k.

Lepas dah kenyang, kami pon senang hati. Teruskan perjalanan mencari Avenues of stars and museum. Jalan kaki j.. sambil2 tgk bandar dia tau2 da sampai j. Hehe.. very the clever we ols.

Cume x best nye kat HongKong ni kite as muslim x boleh try street food dia la. sbb takut x halal kan. Jadi bila jalan2, make sure bawak snack dlm beg k.

Petang nye kami drop by kat station Mongkok untuk pegi ke Lady's market. Kat situ mcm syurga shopping la. Bagi yg nk beli survenir, sila beli kat sini k. And kat sini, you need to brush up ur bargain skills. Asah bagi kilat sikit baru mai sini na.. kalau x, harga kena sembelih. Dont worry pasal isu bahasa. Mmg some of the seller x pandai speak english, tp kita guna bahasa isyarat j pon voley. Janji dia paham. Untuk harga.. nnt dia tekan no kat kalkulator. Kalau x suka..u pandai2 la minus sdr kat kalkulator dia tu. Hehe..

Kebanyakannye jual barang yg sama mcm handbags, t-shirt, Fridge magnet, accessories etc. So kena la survey dulu harga. Org pon ramai kemain kat ladys market tu. Untuk muslim, jangan risau sbb kat situ ada a few arab restaurant yg halal. Jadi kalau nak cari makanan pon x susah.

So, enjoy la some of the pictures masa day 1.

Sampai j kat sana wakil tour guide kat Shenzhen da siap2 tunggu kami. Kami tiba Shenzhen pon da petang.. Upon arrival, terus check in bilik, then keluar balik cari makan. Nasib baik tour guide kami baik hati nk tunjukkan kedai makan yg halal. 

On our way to halal Muslim restaurant

Shenzhen Hotel lobby

Di Shenzhen kami sangat2 enjoy the food. Kalau kat Hongkong asyik makan Arabic food j.. kat sini kite boleh enjoy the Chinese muslim food. Bestt!! Kami try udon mee.. dumpling.. mee tarik, mee kicap.. and many more.

Here are the pictures for you to crave for.. hahaha.. Saje kasi panas. Kite bakorr..

Bird nest soup

The menu was on the wall. So, pilih j mana suka. Nak baca menu dalam menu list x paham kan..

Cume kat Shenzhen ni susah sikit on the language. Most of the local ppl x boleh berbahasa inggeris. Lain2...ok j. So, lepas makan kami beli buah buahan kat market area hotel tu. Jadi mlm tu just rest kat bilik, makan buah2 dan tidur. Zzzzz..

Till then. ;)

Hongkong Shenzhen and Disneyland trip 5d4n. ( budget cost trip )

Holla ols.. Assalamualaikum semua,

Sambungan untuk entry sblm ni SEE HERE.. Cik Lyzz promise to share the budget cost for our trip to Hongkong Disneyland and Shenzhen. Yeahh.. Alhamdulillah diberi peluang dan ruang serta berkesempatan untuk Cik Lyzz and DD pergi jalan2 ke negara orang lagi.Kali ni Destinasi cinta kami ke HongKong and Shenzhen pulak. Alhamdulillah.. Kami dua2 enjoy the trip sangat2 dapat melihat dan meninjau bumi Hong Kong yang indah ciptaan Tuhan amat menyeronokkan dan menambah pengalaman kami. For the first time kami ke HongKong and Shenzhen.. and juge pertama kali pergi Disneyland. Melompat kegembiraan Cik Lyzz bila sampai ke Disneyland. Hilang segala stressed dan kekusutan yg ada di jiwa lara... hahaha..

Add caption

Today nk share about our trip to Hong Kong and Shenzhen end of April aritu.
Total lost for the trip for two person = Flight RM1400 + Ground RM2730.00 = RM4100 for 2paxs. Okey sangat kann... sebab the ground package is already includes of everything like 4 night hotel accommodation, transport, hotel transfer, meals, visa, tour guide, Disneyland entrance fees and tipping. Hence, you just need to bring pocket money only. ;D Cik Lyzz beli package tu dari Sedunia Holidays.

Untuk makluman, kali ni Cik Lyzz and DD decide to use tour guide. Sbb masalah komunikasi dan juge supaya we ols nnt senang nk cari halal food. Risau la kan.. So jalan terbaik dan selamat is amik Muslim Package.

Those yg nk survey harga boleh checkitout at their website. By Sedunia Holiday u can also custom your itinerary suit to your budget and interest. Tu yg best.. ;) For example kalau u ols nk pergi for shopping.. so boleh skip city tour and program melawat2 floating village, bunga kebangsaan etc. Mintak they all arrange kan untuk u ols pegi shopping j. Tp kan.. shopping kat Hongkong mmg best. ( kalau banyak duit la.. ) sbb barang2 dia up to date and kalau baju or handbag or kasut, design sume yg latest kot. Terbaiikk sangat.
P/s : Now they are having a Matta Fair at PWTC 5th-7th Sept 2014. ( Hall 1 ). Sila lah laju2 pegi melawat sales derang k. Jangan lupe share dgn Cik Lyzz jugak nnt.

Untuk panduan.. when u masuk their website.. u can choose package by select destination or boleh pilih by top holiday package. Kat situ ada list down all top package that they offer.

Contoh mcm kat atas ni.. kita pilih destination = Hong Kong, it will gives you a few option of packages for you to choose. See picture below, nampak tak kat bottom right ada "Our Holiday types".. boleh filter lagi by destination > types. Kalau nk muslim package just add another criteria "muslim package". It will show you all the packages available based on your search.

Actually this is the 3rd times Cik Lyzz takes their package.

So far kami puas hati with the trip and all the arrangement. Semua nye ikut plan and itinerary yg diberi sblm kita deals with the package. Apepon..ade la satu tragedi masa kat sana. Ada miscommunication sikit with tour agency kat Hongkong when we arrive disneyland hotel for check in. So, bila kami nk check in kat hotel Hollywood Disneyland tu, xde pulak nama kami in their booking list. Walau apepon, they are much more kind to substitute us with 5 stars hotel Hotel Nikko with breakfast for 2. Yeay..!! ( tau j la hotel kat Hongkong are super duper expensive.. breakfast j cost them HKD250 per head. Dang!!  rezeki kami la tu namanye..)

So, here are the package:

 Package: 5D/4N Hong Kong Shenzhen + Disneyland

 Package No. of pax: 02 Adult 

 Accommodation:  Newton Place + Disney's Hollywood Hotel 

 Date : 27 April 2014 - 01 May 2014

 China Visa Single Entry Fee : RM 115 per passport x  02Paxs =  RM 230.00

Homemade fishball with tomato soup.. bebola ikan dalam sup tomato..

Salam.. good afternoon u ols..
Today Cik Lyzz nk share resepi sup tomato.. nyummm lagi sihat. Kite kena makan yg sihat2 sahaja ok.. Kurangkan MSG dalam masakan... and add up more natural flavor into your meals.
Sup tomato ni Cik Lyzz x guna any bahan perasa pon. Untuk sup tu.. Cik Lyzz pan fry biji ketumbar, jintan manis, jintan besar, lada hitam.. ( semua sikit2 j.. x sampai satu sudu kecil pon ).. then grind kan rempah tu sampai jadi serbuk. Pastu tumis la bawang putih, bawang merah, halia, serbuk rempah td.. kulit kayu manis, bunga lawang.. mcm nk masak sup tu.. da garing masukkan air 2 cawan and tomato yg telah di dadu kecil2.. Renehkan sampai air berkurang.. Masuk air lagi.. renehkan slow cook sampai tomato dissolved. Kalau suke pedas, boleh tumis sikit cili boh sebelum masuk air ataupon tumbuk j cili padi campak j dlm tu skali.

Tomatoes are often considered as "sayur", though in actuality they are a citrus fruit. Tomatoes are an incredibly versatile food. They are delicious eaten raw, in salads or on sandwiches, and take on a wonderful sweetness when cooked. Not only that, they are also good for your health.

Here are some of the health benefits of tomatoes. ( Cik Lyzz google j.. )

1.       Ward off Cancer
Numerous studies have concluded that the more tomatoes people eat the lower their risks of certain cancers, especially lung, stomach and prostate cancers.  A substance called lycopene, which is responsible for tomatoes red color, is thought to be the reason for this cancer protective effect. Processed tomatoes contain even more lycopene than raw ones. The process of cooking breaks down the cell walls, helping to release the lycopene. Eating tomatoes with a little bit of fat, such as olive oil, helps lycopene to be better absorbed by the body.

2.      Prevent DNA Damage
Tomatoes are high in important antioxidants such as vitamin C and Vitamin A. These vitamins work to fend of DNA damage from free radicals. Consequently, tomatoes may help to ward off age related diseases such as atherosclerosis and diabetes.

3.      Reduce the Risk of Heart Disease
Tomatoes contain important nutrients, such as niacin, folate and vitamin B6, that have associated with the reduction of heart disease risk. One study found that women who ate 7 to 10 servings of tomato products per week had a 29 percent lower risk of cardiovascular disease than women who consumed less than a serving and a half of tomato products each week. Results were even more impressive when the women ate oil-rich tomato products.

4.       Protect Against Thrombosis
Another study showed that drinking 8 ounces of tomato juice daily reduced platelet aggregation significantly, among study subjects. Those drinking a placebo showed no benefit. It’s important to drink low-sodium tomato juice if you are trying to protect against thrombosis (blood clots in the blood vessel) , as high sodium levels can cause negative effects for this type of disease.

5.      Ward off Inflammation
A double blind study found that drinking a glass of tomato juice a day can reduce blood levels of TNF-alpha by 34 percent. TNF-alpha causes inflammation. High levels have been found in individuals with most chronic, degenerative diseases such as heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis and Alzheimer’s.

Haaa... amacam?? best tak khasiat tomato ni. Bagi yg x suke makan sayur mcm DD.. try la buat sup mcm Cik Lyzz buat ni.  Boleh la masukkan any other Vege dalam sup ni.. as sup sayur. For me, Cik Lyzz masukkan fishball dari ikan tenggiri. And it goes well... Puurrrrrrrrfect!!

Try la.. ;)


** Untuk resepi bebola ikan pulak

2 keping ikan tenggiri ( Ambil isi dan tumbuk halus..)
lada sulah
salt to taste
1spoon fish sauce
2 spoon corn floor

Gaul semua bahan... bulat2 kan. then masuk dalam sup yg mendidih. ( Tips : Basahkan tangan dgn air sblm  bulat2 kan fishball tu kalau xnak dia melekat2 kat tangan. )
