New Security at Taman Connaught

If you have notice since beginning of the year of before Chinese New Year, guard houses have been built on the 2 main entry to Jalan Pendita, on is behind the Alliance Bank while the other one is behind KFC. Not to mention, patrolling of the security guards around the neighbourhood keeping the area safe. Keeping the area is safe will definitely make the residents feel safer. Besides, even the police are patrolling the area and also mobile police station being set up in front of the shops. 3 cheers for them. However, for a student like me who always walk, things started to become troublesome when they started to build this barricade at the 3 small road connecting Jalan Pendita and Jalan Arif. Well, as long as it is passable, I'm ok with it. Those barricades really can stop motorbikes from entering Jalan Pendita. Even those cars wanna you the small road also need to pass through the GUARD house. Really wasting of time. Just this evening, what amaze me is the security personnel even put CHAIN on the barricade, like preventing people from passing through it. WHY wanna DO it?? The ROAD is not YOURS!! What is the function of the ROAD when CANNOT USE it?? Really STUPID people doing STUPID JOB. A usual walk that takes less than 5 minutes now need to take less than 10 minutes just to reach the restaurant. Really really very hate it. As thought it does not give us any freedom at all. Somemore I heard that they gonna implement stickers for the vehicle. No sticker means no entry. How about STUDENTS? Please think for yourself lah. This is an housing area with a UNI just besides it. DO expect of a lot of PEOPLE walking here and there. NOT all the PEOPLE are BAD. 

The Barricade with chain!!!

Staying in such area do make me feel safe but feel uncomfortable, not to mention in this house. Haiz. Just like every thing that you are doing is being watched, as if I did something wrong or they are waiting for me to do some mistake and use that opportunity to teach me a lesson or even worst, might even chase me out. Haiz. 

Just me ranting here

Latest addition to Taman Connaught Pasar Malam

When i was on my way to the pharmacy, suddenly i saw an interesting lorry moving along side me and into the small road. The name of the van is Mook's Pizza. This means that there will be a new choice to choose from. Pizza. Not a bad idea for dinner. hehe. So, upon seeing where the lorry has stopped, i decided to visit it at around 5smt when everything is ready. Actually my dinner for the day was Chee Cheong Fun. So, it was an option between Chee Cheong Fun and this new pizza. Being currious, i decided to try out this new pizza. The price consider reasonable, RM6 for small size, while RM10 for normal size. The normal size is like the personal pizza for pizza hut. I ask the tauke what is the specialty and he say Hawaiian pizza. Without further thinking, I ordered that.

I din take much picture at first because i feel 'paiseh'. While waiting the pizza to be ready, I took the menu. haha.



The crust look like a pan cake to me. Pre-fried one. The base is some onion with some sauce. The ingredients are sliced hot dog, chunk of pineapple, minced meat and lots of cheese on top with some flavour powder on top. Upon the time of putting all the ingredient, the pineapple was still frozen. After everything was prepared, the pizza was place into the oven for about 5 to 10 mins and it is ready to be served.

Here is the outcome of the pizza.

The bread or bottom of the pizza was very crunchy and very nice to eat. Overall consider not bad. Downside of it is the price. haha. 5 flavours and i only eaten 1. I wonder if i will order it again next week. Instead of 1 regular, i might choose 2 mini. haha. Not bad for a starter. Tauke also very friendly.

There is also another new stall which i din try out. The new stall is also about food which sell Waffle Cakes. It is located right in front of the bettercare pharmacy. Whoever are interested can go try it for youselves.
