#Sept Socials Date1

My first #SeptSocials outing was with a very low key kind of guy. I asked his permission if he can be called as "Evil Henchman" so that it doesn't change much (Thanks very much again!)

He came all the way from Klang to join me on this date (which was initially a dare from a friend of his), researched the restaurant and yes plus points, he was extremely punctual!

It was funny as he told me his "Evil Henchman" was going to kidnap me and bring me over for lunch. Blur sotong me, kept asking him about his "Boss" until we arrived at the café...

April : Eh, order now ah? don't you want to wait for your boss?

EH: *snicker*

April : Hah? two ppl only? Your boss leh

EH: I'm the boss lor.

That really kinda took me by surprise. All in good fun though. This Java Programmer actually managed to confuse me! *LOL*. He was very obliging recalling our conversation on MSN ordering my favourite Thai Dishes! Although timid in nature, I could see that he was quite opiniated. An extremly careful driver and a person who takes note of the needs and wants of other people.

Here are some other photos of the date tho :)

And because I'm high on it now, I'd like to share the best cup instant coffee known to a Malaysian produced for Thai commercial retail consumption.

I had my first cup of 'Khao Shong' when a Thai lady opened up a store and tempted me with a cup off coffee when I walked in zombified. It was an instant pick up and everyone who I've brought there to sample that cup of coffee never failed to agree with me 'How absolutely friggin great that milky coffee was'

When the lady affectionately known as 'auntie' to me decided to move to a most inconvenient place in Selayang, I was desperate to know her secret to that piquant perk-up. I sneaked over to the counter striking up conversations about Thailand and lo-behold. Jars and jars of KHAO SHONG COFFEE!

Thus in my recent trip to Bangkok, I went ahead to buy a couple of packets of Khao Shong.

Me and my beloved Khao Shong

Oh yes I'd even camwhore with a packet of coffee.

There is just something about it's rich commercial aroma. Flavorful, not too strong with a aroma that hits your senses to the very end of tasting. Remind me to fix you with a cup if you can drop by my humble abode.

Coffee anyone?

Anyone teased, tempted or dare I say tormented to have a cup yet?
