Tea time treasure hunting.
Finally, some authoritative answers to this age-old question!
BARACK OBAMA:
The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a CHANGE! The chicken
wanted CHANGE!
JOHN MCCAIN:
My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need
to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other
side of the road.
HILLARY CLINTON:
When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross
the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure — right
from Day One! — that every chicken in this country gets the chance it
deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn’t about me…….
DR. PHIL:
The problem we have here is that this chicken won’t realize that he must
first deal with the problem on ‘THIS’ side of the road before it goes
after the problem on the ‘OTHER SIDE’ of the road. What we need to do is
help him realize how stupid he’s acting by not taking on his ‘CURRENT’
problems before adding ‘NEW’ problems.
OPRAH:
Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he
wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn
from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I’m going to
give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and not
live his life like the rest of the chickens.
GEORGE W. BUSH:
We don’t really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to
know if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not. The chicken is
either against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here.
COLIN POWELL:
Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of
the chicken crossing the road…
ANDERSON COOPER - CNN:
We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been
allowed to have access to the other side of the road.
JOHN KERRY:
Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it!
It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken’s
intentions. I am not for it now, and will remain against it.
NANCY GRACE:
That chicken crossed the road because he’s GUILTY! You can see it in his
eyes and the way he walks.
PAT BUCHANAN:
To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.
MARTHA STEWART:
No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had a
standing order at the Farmer’s Market to sell my eggs when the price
dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider
information.
DR SEUSS:
Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the
chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I’ve not been told.
ERNEST HEMINGWAY:
To die in the rain. Alone.
GRANDPA:
In my day we didn’t ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told us
the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.
BARBARA WALTERS:
Isn’t that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the
chicken tell, for the first time, the heart warming story of how it
experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its life
long dream of crossing the road.
ARISTOTLE:
It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.
JOHN LENNON:
Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace.
BILL GATES:
I have just released eChicken2007, which will not only cross roads, but
will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your check book.
Internet Explorer is an integral part of the Chicken. This new platform is
much more stable and will never cra…#@&&^(C% ………. reboot.
ALBERT EINSTEIN:
Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the
chicken?
BILL CLINTON:
I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What is your definition of
chicken?
ALGORE:
I invented the chicken!
COLONEL SANDERS:
Did I miss one?
DICK CHENEY:
Where’s my gun?
AL SHARPTON:
Why are all the chickens white? We need some black chickens!
And now, the local version (for Singapore & Malaysia):
LEE KUAN YEW (Former Prime Minister Singapore):
We have installed crossing lights at all traffic junctions. All chickens
should be able to cross safely to the other side.
LEE HSIEN LOONG (Current Prime Minister Singapore):
Gantry points have been set up. All chickens wanting to cross the road
are advised to top up their cash cards first.
ABDULLAH BADAWI (Current Prime Minister Malaysia):
We have to be fair to all chickens. Some want to cross over the road, some
do not. …….. Zzzzzz …….zzzzzz ……. Now what were we talking
about? Ah yes, chickens. We will form a Royal Commission to decide
whether it is right for them to cross the road.
MAHATHIR (Former Prime Minister Malaysia):
Now even the non-bumi chickens want to cross the road? How can they
disrespect and disregard the bumi chickens? We must be allowed to cross over first. It is our right!
ANWAR (Opposition party leader Malaysia):
We have enough chickens waiting to cross over in September.
SAMY VELLU (Former Minister of Works Malaysia):
After we have erected the toll booths, all chickens are free to cross the
road.
V.K.LINGAM:
It looks like a chicken, it sounds like a chicken, but it is not a chicken. Correct correct correct!

Taste good too! nah… not really that good.
Searching for good food is like treasure hunting. Seeking this hidden restaurant inside Sri Petaling is not easy and outside of the shop doesnt appeal much but the cuisine inside are like gold and diamonds inside an old treasure box. The food is here is outstanding and very "special". I wonder how the chef here mix foods together from chinese with western, western with japanese and so on. This style of cooking also known as fusion cooking which how the restaurant get its name. Fusion Haven. From the moment i see the menu, i know this place is great but too bad not much people know about it hence its so little people inside on weekends. Did i mention weekdays its always full especially office lunch hours!!! I remember newspaper got intro this place before but it didnt came into my mind until yesterday.Gee.. feel so outdated and missed out so much. Yes this place certainly is not new already and many bloggers know about it. I guarantee you one time visit to this place definitely not enough. The food was great and the price was reasonable. If you can afford Kim Gary, im sure you can afford here too. Forget Kim Gary, Mongkok Char Chan Teng or Tung Lo wan, this is definitely better and worth it. Let’s see how my first attempt are.
The menu:
English Herbs Butter Baked Lamb : RM16.90
Baked Butterfish : RM16.90
Fusion Mango Salad : RM9.90
Iced Honey Lemon and Iced Jasmine Tea @ only RM3.90 each
The taste was good but not enough for sure and lastly
Warm Heart Chocolate (ice cream topped with chocolate cake) :
RM 3.90 !!!
Fusion Haven Cafe & Restaurant is at :
45 Jalan Radin Anum 1,
Bandar Baru Seri Petaling, KL
Business Hours :
Mon-Wed,Fri-Sun, lunch (Noon-3pm); dinner (6pm-11pm)
Auntie Anne’s is giving away free pretzel today from 11am - 2pm. Kiasu ppl like me sure wont miss out the queue since its just below my office only.. haha…
look at the long triple U turn queue…
my first claim at 11am only took me 5 minutes…
after lunch hour.. it took me 18 mins to queue up to claim my freebite.
Finally visit Forest Bubba Gump Shrimp… its really nice the food they serve there but a bit crowded though. It always full with people. I guess nowadays people really know how to find a good place to dine.
Since there was only the 2 of us, we didn’t order much - just two entrees and drinks. To make your dining experience a little unique, there’s a few rules here. For instance, you get two signs on the table (similar to driving licence plates in the USA); a red one that says, "Stop, Forrest, Stop" and a blue one, which says "Run, Forrest, Run". Depending on which plate you display, the wait staff will respond accordingly. It takes a while for them to check this out since there’s no bell or indicator that you wish, you could just clap your hands to get their attention just like a Japanese restaurant.
On the table, you get a metal bucket with condiments and there’s a ping pong bat with a menu. I found the ping pong bat amusing, since they attached a long thin chain to keep it from "walking away".
So let’s start with the food i’ve ordered.
Speckled Lemonade with strawberries RM10.90 and Lotsa Lava (my personal fav) Creamy coconut and sweet pineapple erupt with a strawberry flow RM10.90.
House recommend - Dumb luck Coconut Shrimps with cajun marmalade and fries Rm33.90
For those who have a big appetite.. this should fill your tummy -
Bourbon Street Baramundi - Charbroiled Cajun spiced Baramundi with Bourbon Street Sauce and Shrimp, served over Mashed potatoes. RM29.90.
A closer look.
They even got their own hot Mama sauce!
Life is a box of chocolate.. so choose the best food to eat.
