Ramadhan Buffet @ BCCK
I’m supposed to blog bout this last weekend but something happened to my PC .. and it’s still in coma condition and I’m having hard time finding adobe imageready software. Went to google last night and got to know that Adobe ImageReady has been discontinued in Adobe Photoshop CS2. No wonder cannot find lar.. Huhuhu.. But people said kan.. everything happens for a reason.. Since I couldn’t find ImageReady to be used, I learnt how to do GIF pictures with Adobe Photoshop CS3.. hehehe…
Okay.. back to the the Ramadhan Buffet at BCCK (Borneo Convention Centre Kuching) at Sejingkat..
Do you really know the meaning of fasting? I shamefully do not know till I saw on the projector screen at the dining hall in BCCK. One of the quotes that I managed to capture is this –> “It is the month to visit the poor, sick and the needy to share their sorrows. It is the month where food, sustenance and the earnings of the believing Muslim increases and they are blessed”

.
guess what.. ahlost is giving away TWO FREE VOUCHERS to her reader who is in Kuching (need not be a Kuchingite to qualify) to dine in at BCCK for this Ramadhan Buffet. But of course there’s no free meal in this world cos I’m expecting answers from you. Kekeke..
Okay.. 4 Questions to win Two Free Vouchers courtesy of rosewong.com
1) Who will you bring if you were to get these free vouchers? Why are you bringing him/her to dine withand not me? But if you were to bring me along, then the Why question no need to answer la *LOL*
2) How many pictures are there altogether in this entry?
3) Why am I called ahlost? and what do you hate most about rosewong.com?
4) Where is BCCK and how to get there? I know you’ll be going by car or motorcycle. What I mean is the directions to get to BCCK. You can start off with City 2000 Traffic Light, or from Hilton, or, Simpang Tiga, or Pending, or Kenyalang, or anywhere la.. As long as you can tell me how to go from the places you’re more familiar with, then bolehlah. Kekeke.. This question is very important because if you do not know the place.. Then you might not be able to go there even if you win the vouchers.
Okay.. 4 simple questions to win two vouchers worth more than RM100. The best answers will win and winner will be determined by ME, ahlost and Rose Wong.. Kekekeke… and the result will be out this weekend..
All the best !!


ahlost!.. me give it a try yea? =P hehe!
Q1) If I win those vouchers, I’ll bring my mum. LoL! cause last week this conversation took place..
Mum: BCCK got restaurant meh?
Me: I dunno ooo.. Dont think so gua…
Mum: Newspaper put got Ramadhan Dinner there.
Me: If newspaper put then should be got right? Newspaper will lie one meh? Haha!
So, if I bring my mum.. It’ll kill her curiousity once and for all. LoL! and also she eats a lot ah.. even i cannot compete with her. LoL!
Q2) 83 pictures which includes those in GIF format. (hopefully correct, i count until my eyes want cross-eyed liaw.. haha!)
Q3) I think la.. you are called ahlost because… someone mispronounced your name once. instead of calling, ah rose.. it came out as ahlost? =P
the one thing i hate most about rosewong.com ah??… wouldnt say hate la.. its tolerable.. just that your pictures do take quite some time to load..
Q4) From the toll brigde.. go towards Jalan Utama. Straight until reach roundabout. At the roundabout, turn in the road at 3 o’clock. Then drive straight again until reach yet another roundabout. Turn at 12 o’clock into Jalan Keruing. Drive straight straight straight.. you see BCCK at the opposite side of the road. Drive straight again.. up up the bridge… down down the bridge.. until you see an opening to make U-turn. Make that U-turn. Drive straight straight.. until you see BCCK green white building. Turn left and find parking. You’ve reached BCCK! TADA! LoL!
i hope correct lo.. the answers. LoL! *keep fingers crossed*
[Yomi]
Thank you for participating ..

[Yomi]

[TV]
hahaha.. wei.. why you like that one? *piak*
1. If I win this voucher, I’m going to bring Anna (it’s my b’day coming
2. This is very tough. I had to extract all the GIF frames.
To be practical:
- There are 29 image post
- 8 of them are Animated GIFs
- If u wan to be funny, there’s 44 images including your ads & background bar images (counted by Mozilla Firefox plugins)
- When I extract all the GIFs, there is a duplicate image of
http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii266/ahlost/20090827-BCCK-47.jpg inside http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii266/ahlost/20090827-BCCK-24-2947.gif
- All of them made 75 pictures
- If minus that same duplicate image is 74 pictures
If you don’t believe me, check out:

http://zomg.com.my/frame2.jpg
(I work hard for this Rose! haha!)
3. People call u ah lost, coz they cannot pronounce the R.. so rose rose sounds like lost lohhh
4. The official answer on BCCK.COM.MY, Borneo Convention Center Kuching is located at Isthmus Island, Sejingkat, 93050 Kuching
To reach there from City2000 Traffic Light (From the Tun Saheluddin Toll Bridge), turn left and drive straight (jgn belok belok) until the round-about. Take the 3rd turn from the round about (right/3o’clock) and go straight until another round about and take 2nd turn (12 o’clock). Drive straight and u will go by the Sejingkat causeway. You are now inside Isthmus island. Drive straight until another bridge. If u are clever, u can drive down that barage bridge to make a U-turn. Otherwise drive over the barage and make that U-turn. Drive straight again and turn left.

Thank you for participating
1)
>>>Okay, I’d bring my girlfirend la… and have a romantic dinner, and also invite you also to dine together. After all, you are the sponsor, and it is a great way to get to know the person behind the domain. I’m very sure it will be fun and well interesting =D
2)
>>>Everytime i calculated it, I lost count.. so, I’d finally settle for around 79-80. My eyes juling already kira…
3)
>>>Not fair!! I don’t know you that well to say how you gained the nick name ahlost. Anyway, I think its coz you are called Rose and Chinese tend to change R to L and then add the Ah in front… so behold… Rose become AhLost.. Like how Mike become AhMike, and Yap become AhMike… If not, then maybe its coz you got lost somewhere before…hahahhaa..
>>>What I hate about Rosewong.com? I don’t like being a hypocrite, so I’d be honest…The pictures in your blog are super big, so I have to wait for quite sometime for it to load (maybe its also coz my internet connection is slow lah). A suggestion is for you to make it smaller, and when we want to have a closer look, we click to enlarge it. No offense Ahlost… Sorry if i offended you.
4)
>>>BCCK?? It’s in Sejingkat. So, if you are from the Zecon toll bridge, Go straight to Pending Commercial Area. Turn left into the road heading to the Fishing Boat Roundabout, and make a 3′oclock turn to another roundabout. Go straight at the roundabout (enter the road opposite where you are coming out from), and cross a bridge heading to the Kuching Ithmus. Look out for a green huge building which is well lit (if at night), or a green shaped leaf.. and that is BCCK. If you get lost, call Mike, and ask him for directions as a contingency plan..heheh
eyh.. the prize only for two right.. so if you wanna join in also can.. but whose gonna foot the bill for the 3rd person if I win?? kekeke…
[Cyril]
I don’t mind to foot for the bill as I think the buffet is really worth every cent I’m going to pay
[Cyril]
Thank you for participating
1. OooErr~ My parents have already been but I haven’t…. *wink pick wink me* so if I were to win this very fun and premium contest I would bring Eva. Keke. Cause she enjoys trying out new eateries too.
2. Pek Chap Sa! 83! The GIFS are trickyyyy
3. Ahlost, because people were pronouncing Rose as Ah Rose then ban ban become Ahlost!
4. Okie! From UMW Toyota Pending…
i. drive towards Bintawa, You will pass Chung Hua No.1 on your left;
ii. then you will drive down a slope till you reach a traffic light, go straight;
iii. Go straight on and your will pass an overhead bridge and then arrive at a second traffic light intersection, going left takes you over the toll bridge, but you go STRAIGHT;
iv. Drive on towards Bintawa and you will soon reach a roundabout with a fishing boat in the middle, cannot miss one;
v. Then at the roundabout, take the exit at 3 o’clock;
vi. Go Straight and you will reach another roundabout, this time take the exit at 12 o’clock;
vii. Now you are heading towards to Barrage (which has helped with the water pollution in the Sarawak River);
viii. Drive over the Barrage and enjoy the view;
ix. When you drive down the Barrage, you should be on Jalan Keruing;
x. Drive on straight and you should be able to see the BCCK structure shortly on your right, you can’t miss it. It’s the only huge, new structure after the barrage;
xi. But!! even if you see BCCK you can’t get in just like that, you have to keep driving straight till you reach this funky u-turn thing;
xii. At the funky u-turn, make a right hand turn to come back down and now BCCK will be on your left; and
xiii. When you reach, masuk, find parking and use your two vouchers won at http://www.rosewong.com to feast at the delicious ramadhan buffet!
Yeay!!!! The vouchers iz belongz to me!!
DANG!!!!!!!! For question 4.
Step one oredi need correction. As you drive down to Bintawa, Chung Hua No. 1 will be on the RIGHT, not left. Thousand apologies Ahlost!
Andddd!!!!! Ah Rose is pronounced Ah Lost, because Foochows tend to pronounce the ‘R’ as ‘L’!

[narutoirene]
Thank you so much for participating
A1) I haven’t thought of who to bring to the dinner, and since I’m single and available (Answer to your Why question), can I ask you to accompany me instead?
A2) Counted few times, 83 pictures altogether. Couldn’t be wrong since the rest got the same answer as well.
A3) There are no problem at my side for loading pictures. What I dislike most about rosewong.com is that I feel hungry whenever you blog about food and you make me ruined my diet !! Must put a disclaimer or warning next time when you are going to blog about food.
A4) I am going to answer this question after I hunt the place down these few days. can you please don’t announce the winner first till I got back an answer for you? I’m sure you’ll be glad with my answer. Please?
[Raphael]
Thank you for participating.. Was waiting for your answers for last question but you didn’t manage to submit till now
(1) I will let my parents to experience this wonderful Ramadhan Buffet at BCCK if I were to win these vouchers. Why them? Because I know they will never spend money on these kind of food, not because they cannot afford to dine in there, just because they save for us, their children. Plus their anniversary is round the corner, so, if I could win these vouchers, I will let them enjoy themselves there since they have never been there before.
(2) There are 83 pictures altogether. Count until my mata juling @.@
(3) You are called ahlost because of the R & L that people tend to mispronounce. An example besides Rose to Lost would be Rolex and Lolex. What do I hate about rosewong.com ah? Basically, there’s nothing that I dislike about this blog except for the updates. I dislike it when I come here and see no update from your blog. I’ve been a ghost reader of yours who visited your blog regularly.. So I beg for regular update from you can?
(4) BCCK is at Sejingkat. How to get there from anywhere that I’m familiar with ah? Alright, I’ll start at some famous place that everyone knows. From Imperial Duck or Lok Thian Restaurant’s bus stop, 0.0km, drive straight and you’ll see a traffic light, drive straight and you will notice that Hong Leong Bank is on your right and Crown Tower & Crown Square will be on your left. Drive straight again and UMW Toyota Motor is on your left. You’ll see the funniest roundabout in town after the Petronas station. I said funniest roundabout because it’s an oval-shaped roundabout, or should I call it ovalabout. Haha.
Ok, from the roundabout, drive 12 o’clock and you will be going up a hill and the moment you see an overhead bridge, you’ll definitely notice CHMS No.1 on your right hand side. Drive down the hill, and before you reach another traffic light, you’ll notice Yung Kong yellow-orange building on your left hand side. As you pass by the traffic light (Yes, go straight, don’t turn anywhere till I mention it), Poliklinik is on your left and Sin Teck Hung is on your right. Drive straight again and when you see another overhead bridge, it also means there’s a school nearby. This time, Chung Hua Primary School Pending is on your left. At this time, it takes less than 3 mins and about 1.8km from the start point that I mentioned earlier on.
As you drive along, if you would like to confirm if you got the right place, notice Hock Seng Lee building on your right, or Wisma Hii Yii Ngiik / Siang Siang Food Court, Pending on your left. If you see these buildings / places, you’ll be seeing another traffic light at City 2000. To the left, you’ll be going to the toll bridge, to the right, you’ll be going to Yoshi Square and to make things less complicated, go straight, which is Jalan Utama. Along this road, you’ll be seeing Sarawak Pepper Building, TM Pending, Sarawak Concrete, Path Advertising on your left and the famous Carvery restaurant on your right. You’ll see a roundabout with a boat in the middle. The first turning would be Bintawa Housing estate, 2nd turning would be Bintawa Industrial area and you should be going to the 3rd turning, which is Jalan Kemajuan, which is also 3 o’clock from Jalan Utama.
You know you’re at the right turning when you see Balai Polis Bintawa on your left and White Horse company on your right. On the left, you’ll also be seeing Teck Lee Seng (TLS), TC Motors, Velocity (the place for you to play go-kart) and finally See Hua Daily News Building and on your right, you’ll be seeing Lieng Bang Sawmill, Samasa Press and Yung Kong Metal Works.
Now, you’ll be seeing another roundabout. This time, you go for 2nd turning (12 o’clock) and drive along that road. On your left, you’ll be seeing Tai Say Company and few other companies nearby before you see Sarawak River. Drive slowly along the road as you’ll see “Slow – Men At Work” signboards. Road constructions are going on so please drive very carefully especially at night where road lights are not functioning along this road. While driving slowly, you’ll actually notice a huge building on your right.. and yes, that’s BCCK building. It’s 6.5km, 8mins from our stating point.
You’ll soon see a bridge in front of you but instead of going up the bridge, we shall use the road under the bridge on our left hand side, turn in there and drive slowly about 50seconds, approximately 1km before you notice we are at another side of the road of Sejingkat. Drive for another 1km before you’ll see the entrance of BCCK on your left. You can choose to park your car at open space of their carpark or you also can drive in their basement carpark. No charges applied as of today.
So, from Lok Thian Restaurant’s bus stop to BCCK, it only takes about 8.6km, 10mins and 30 seconds. I have recorded a video of me doing this journey so the duration and kilometers couldn’t be wrong.
