Sweet Retreat: Saufiville

I just heard JJ & Ean's awesome parody of Rebecca Black's 'Friday'. Its called 'Monday'. Give it a listen if you need a little Monday pick-me-up!

In other news, I had a pretty relaxing weekend although I'm starting to feel a bit under of the weather since last night. A few of my friends and I made a roadtrip to Pahang for a mini getaway. Somewhere in Janda Baik, way up the hill, there's a resort called Saufiville... Amazing!

Welcome to Saufiville. Your sweet escape.

Felt like Bali! And this place is only an hour away from KL City. Can you believe that? It was Jeanette's birthday so she organized this little trip for everyone. Good job, JT!

Need to getaway from the city?

Check out their Facebook fanpage if you want to find out more about the place.

Boys being boys.

I absolutely loved the view. We spent most of our time hanging out at the balcony and the pool, soaking up the sun.

JT + Joao vs Charles + me. We won!

Ian doing a bit of research on the dozen of scarabs at the villa. No bugs were harms during this experimentation.

Dozens of these buggers flying around...

Hubba hubba

A toga-themed birthday party! All the guys dressed up... Some brought a white cloth, others used white towels. Guess who?

DINNER!

Yummy in the tummy! Want abs? Avoid processed meats and go for the real deal... BBQ-style!

The food was EXCELLENT! They served BBQ chicken wings, steak, lamb shanks and crispy fish... The sauces were all home-made and hella good too. The seafood aglio olio ran out FAST. Almost everyone opted for pasta instead of fried rice. It was so good that we ordered the pasta again for lunch the next day!

Yes, Charles wore a towel... Toga-fail!

And what's a birthday party without a birthday cake? Mmm... Digestives crust - my favorite!

Breakfast/lunch the next morning before we bounced.

We left the day at around 5pm and drove back to KL. A 45-minute drive because there was no traffic. A blissfully relaxing weekend in Pahang yet so near to the city. Back to the grind...
