No.1

ID: @hohjiashen

Reasons: This is my blog, if you read my blog without following my insta, this ain't cool. I take awesome fabulous fantastic photos and you don't follow me, this doesn't make sense as well. Just follow me, I don't spam and I won't disappoint you :) *loveyou 




No.2

ID: @funnyfailvideos & @lol_vines
Reasons: These two account are representatives of humour, they post stupid hilarious videos, you may not get the humour of every video they post but I'm sure you'll find some of them funny. Watch stupid videos, and be stupid, I believe you will be happier!



No3. 

ID: @rachelryle
Reasons: She's my inspiration of why I'm writing this blog about Instagram. I was truly amazed by her talent and hard work when I first found her profile. The motion videos she made are all beautiful and wonderful. Check her out and you'll definitely follow her!



No.4

ID: @fitmencook
Reasons: This recommendation is perfect for people who care about fitness and enjoy food. In 15secs videos, this man shows various of simple healthy yet yummy recipes. Hmm Food and Fitness don't hate each other.



No.5

ID: @garypeppergirl
Reasons: Following at least one fashion Instagram user is a must! She is famous and popular, you might have already followed her. There're a lot of fashion bloggers out there but I'd say her profile is full with colours elegantly and shows she is absolutely the right person for fashion. Push the blue button and ready to get surprised by her wonderful photos!



No.6

No.8

ID: @mensweardog
Reasons: This user is all about men fashion and dog, presented in a very creative and unexpected way. A handsome dog model will change different men's outfits fashionably. Come on, let dog teach you how to dress up yourself, creative isn't it?



No.9

ID: @xiaxue
Reasons: Not her pink hair, but her super duper handsome famous cute mixed baby, baby Dash! I'm so excited to talk about him, undoubtedly he's the cutest baby on this planet and his mum has a good sense of humour as well, she always makes #dashcomic that always make my day. Ahh, I just love him like everybody else does, I hope I can buy a Dash Doll in shopping mall one day.



No.10

ID: ???
Reasons: ???



I seriously have no idea of number 10, hmmm maybe you could give me a suggestion?
Many users above are very famous, I apologies for only putting my own instagram pictures as a respect to the other users so I didn't post their pics without permission. 


If this is a bad list for you or you've known a lot of them before this, just leave me a comment! Hope you like this XOXO

Chrysanthemum RM4.50   iPhone RMXXXX.XX   Soya Bean RM3.50   Chinese Tea RM1.80
No one can diet in front of this, if you can, YOU AIN'T HUMAN, B*TCH! Compared to peking duck I had at Maple Palace, this had more meat and thicker but both are fantastic in a different way. PEKING DUCK NEVER FAILS! It could be I haven't tried one. *touchwood

Get a pancake, put some spring onion, cucumber, one duck skin, some sweet sauce, wrap it and one bite! Heaven~


I like those food served with so called "performances", it shows how they value and appreciate customers. Well, maybe some people enjoy, some don't. I enjoyed it cos to me I always imagine like I were royal or some sort VIP or VVIP, entertaining yourself could be very interesting, trust me, live happily crazily, don't be boring.
Sorry DONALD DUCK, you are too yummy not to be killed.


Signature Peking Duck RM38.80
This dish used the remaining duck of previous dish left, so duck skin + duck meat, two dishes at one price.

The Famous James Cendol @ Sitiawan, Perak

On the way to James Cendol, Dad said: Your mum and I eat this when we start dating until now.
I was like dafuq, not lying?
Then, I saw on the banner "James Cendol since 1974", I had to believe LOL.
No idea why it sounds pretty funny to me. 


Beside the road, very near to a Hindu temple, opposite to a pet shop.
I didn't know it is famous until I googled it when I back in Penang.


Cendol : RM2.20
Cendol with Glutinous rice (pulut) : RM2.50
Ice Kacang : RM2.50

Before I tried James Cendol, I thought no matter famous or not, all cendol taste same but James Cendol proved me wrong, it is a taste which I can remember and tell the differences with others. It comes with rich aromatic coconut milk (santan) flavour but not too sweet. Overall, it is a yes, definitely worth a try!

Chin Yuen Seafood 金园海鲜 in Kim Shen Coffee Shop 金菁茶室

Deciding eating places with family and friends are very important and quite different for me.
 Friends: Shopping malls or Coffee House. Family: Kopitiam. Actually coffee house, cafe, coffee shop and kopitiam are the same, serve prepared coffee or other hot beverages but if you are Malaysian, you should know the differences between Cafe and Kopitiam.

What I blog today is kopitiam is way more traditional and old style whereas cafe is usually modern and more expensive than Kopitiam. Eating with family, I like Kopitiam cos the price is more reasonable and home style cooking.

I'm not PRO about kopitiam, yet I wanna recommend this place, 
Chin Yuen Seafood 金园海鲜 in Kim Shen Coffee Shop 金菁茶室, the food is up to standard and good service, worth the price! I visited it quite some time ago, it was after my Bangkok trip, right from Penang airport, haha. So, I can't label the food name and prices, sorry *duckface






Spend more time with your family, cos every meal with family is a FREE MEAL! *kidding

Sushi Zanmai @ Gurney Paragon Mall

How foodie like us celebrate a farewell? Obviously, EAT! Helen's leaving to Taiwan, it's sad that we need to live so far apart, but ya know, we need to start chasing our own dreams when we've grown up. People said distance kills relationship? Distance bitch, we'll kill you instead *evil laugh



















Taste a bit like mamak curry.




The sushi was good, didn't disappoint the name of "Sushi Zanmai". The price is also reasonable.

See Kong Ooi Restaurant 西公园饭店

After the restaurant was interviewed by a TV programme, <Tasteful Life> on Astro AEC, we decided to have a try.

看见Astro AEC <写食人生>的访问后,我们就去试试

The place was FULL HOUSE and some people with DSLRs, probably reporters or bloggers. Umm, they really gain attentions through the TV show.


当天店满人,还有看似记者和部落客带着专业相机,我想电视的宣传真的有奏效

Curry Fish RM16.00
If I use sex to describe the dish, the aroma was very nice and seducing my nose like a sexy dancing diva. But after I tasted, it was exactly a dead fish. When you say someone is a dead fish in matter of sex, it means she doesn't know how to make pleasure noise LOL. The fish is fish, while curry is curry, they're like bad neighbours, no interactions, doesn't blend well. I say in this way cos I find my blog is pretty boring.

咖喱鱼 RM16.00
如果用性爱来形容这道菜,香味就像性感的舞娘在勾引着我的鼻子。不过吃了之后才发现是一条死鱼,当你说别人是死鱼的时候,意思是她不懂得挑逗和没有情趣。鱼和咖喱像相处不融洽的邻居,不入味。我发现我的部落格真的很闷很无聊,改变一下形容方式

Kang Kong RM7.00
Same, Kang Kong didn't absorb the flavour of the sambal belacan.

蕹菜 RM7.00
跟上一道菜一样,蕹菜没有吸收到酱汁的味道

Belacan Chicken RM10.00
Normal Belacan Chicken.

峇拉煎炸鸡 RM10.00
就一般的峇拉煎炸鸡

Assam Prawn RM16.00
The prawn didn't absorb the flavour of assam.

酸虾 RM16.00
拔了壳的话,虾还是白白的,就assam没有渗透虾

Salted Fish Steam Pork RM10.00
One of their signature dishes, also best dish of the day, it's perfect to serve with a bowl of rice.

咸鱼蒸肉 RM10.00
招牌菜之一,也是当天最好吃的,配一碗白饭就很不错

Iced Longan RM1.20 per glass
冰龙眼 RM1.20 一杯


Rice RM1.00 per bowl
白饭 RM1.00 一碗
