To Sir With Love

Chin VS, Leader of Team Bristol, presenting the gift to Mr Lee Khee Joo

It's the final day of the English Communication course. The FSTEP Batch 4 participants in Team Bristol did not spend the day on games or amusement.

Instead, they worked together to complete a meaningful task - writing messages of appreciation and gratitude to Mr Lee Khee Joo, the Head of FSTEP. In their messages they also expressed their appreciation to the specialists and staff, the facilitators and trainers in their own special ways.

I'm honoured to be your teacher

The FSTEP Batch 4 participants in Team Bristol give me the sweetest gift I could imagine. A special cake decorated in my favourite colour for 2010 - Purple.

The sugar icing is shaped into purple ribbons with flower patterns. A neat row of purple flowers decorate the rim. A beautiful bunch of flowers adorn the crown.

To me, the cake represents the sweet memories of Team Bristol. The ribbons represent the lifelong bonds of friendship. The flowers represent the future that is bright and promising.

I'm touched by this Thank You card. My dearest Bristolians, I treasure your messages of kindness and appreciation. 

I'm honoured to be your teacher.

Seremban Cendol - A trip down memory lane

Click to enlarge

The famous Seremban Cendol has evolved from a pushcart to a big shop. It now serves several cendol recipes such as cendol pulut, cendol kacang, cendol jagung, cendol campur and cendol bandung. My favourite is cendol pulut.

The cendol station inside the shop. The people who work at this station are always in the thick of action. Besides serving the shop patrons, they also have to handle an avalanche of takeaway orders.

Once upon a time, the cendol pushcart was parked at this spot in the serene Seremban Lake Gardens opposite the bustling A&W outlet. Some people said that the delicious cendol could give the popular A&W root beer a run for its money.

At first I couldn't recognize this spot. It looked different with the Telecoms building on the left. You see, the building wasn't there before.



Haji Shariff's Cendol & Catering Sdn Bhd now operates from a big and airy shop painted in green - the colour of the cendol. It's crowded during lunch hour because it offers its patrons something that goes with the cendol - delicious rojak.


The extended area on the left increases the seating capacity. The rojak station is found here.

Kampar Chicken Biscuits - A trip down memory lane

CB Red Label Sdn Bhd

The famous Kampar Chicken Biscuits has a long history. The biscuits even have a catchphrase "A taste of its own". After the PLUS highway was built, Kampar became a town off the beaten track. However, the Kampar chicken biscuits remain as famous as ever.

*

After so many years, I couldn't find the shop. A friend had to be my navigator and we didn't leave the shop until we have shopped. The company, CB Red Label, has an advertising slogan "A Confectioner's Collection". So, we almost bought the whole collection.

The CB brand

The CB Brand has been awarded halal status. Its chicken biscuits come in 3 varieties:

• Crunchy Chicken Biscuits
• Light & Crispy Chicken Biscuits
• Soft Chicken Biscuits

The shop also sells other delicacies such as Kaya Puff and Dragon Ball Biscuits.
