Customized Passport Holders from Giftideas2U

I came across a stall (Giftideas2U) selling customized passport holders/wallet/purse at Chew Jetty during my last trip to Penang. I was attracted to its vibrant and colorful selection. I decided to purchase one although we can easily find cheaper and greater deals at other places especially in Bangkok =)

My personalized lilac wallet
 RM35 (free 1 charm & name engraved)
I topped out another RM6 to have my name engraved in 3D instead of normal one.
Wallet RM29 + 3 x 3D alphabets (RM2 x 3pcs) 

They do offer delivery with charges to  places in Malaysia (with min purchase). After came back to Kuching, my sister contacted them on delivery the customized passport holders to Kuching. They didn't have much color selection especially those common color. I picked the blue color passport holder and added one additional charm. RM103 for three passport holders inclusive delivery charges (and added charms).




My two personalized wallet & passport holder

So if you happened to find personalized wallet/passport holder in Malaysia, do check out Giftideas2U. They might not provide prompt and best services but from my experiences, they are reliable =)

Big Coconut Western, Hui Sing

Read numerous positive reviews of Big Coconut Western at Hui Sing. Decided to pay a visit on Sunday lunch to try out the lunch deals. It was exactly the same place as the old Pinocchio Western Cuisine

You will be given a number with invoice after you place the order at the counter. You pay them after all of your foods arrive.


I was told to wait for 40 minutes for the foods to arrive. I was okay with it but I waited for 55 minutes for my first order to arrive. 

Grilled Lamb Shoulder Garlic Rice with Black Pepper Sauce (RM10)
comes with mushroom soup and coleslaw


Grilled Chicken Garlic Rice with Mushroom Sauce (RM7)
comes with mushroom soup and coleslaw
 the mushroom soup was very salty, the mushroom sauce was rather bland with no mushroom taste

Opt for fried choices (i.e fried chicken/fried fish fillet) if you want bigger food presentation. Grilled options usually served in humble portion.

Will I revisit? Most probably not due to the long wait and food quality despite the affordable pricing.  


得不到的东西, 我们会一直认为他是美好的, 那是因为你对他了解太少, 没有时间与他相处在一起. 当有一天,你深入了解后,你会发现原不是你想象中的美好.
