Porky steamed rice at Sin Kee restaurant @ Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur

Sin Kee restaurant is a very crowded restaurant especially during lunch and dinner time. People come here to try their signature pork steamed rice also known as mun fan. Its a gravy laden rice with stewed pork. The serving amount is generous with big bowl of rice mixed with vegetables, stewed pork, chinese sausage, prawn and egg. Almost each tables ordered a portion of the signature steamed rice.

Taste:7/10(Moderate. The mun fan rice portion is huge with abundant of stewed pork slices. The rice however is slightly too salty for my liking and stewed pork slices lacked of aroma. Fried rice were good with plenty of ingredients plus lap cheong).
Price:8/10(Cheap. The portion here is huge. Each serving here is covered with big bowl. The mun fan and fried rice has adequate ingredients inside. Mun fan and fried rice priced at MYR9.50 each).

Beautiful Boston Public Library @ Boston, Massachusetts

It's hard to believe that a humble looking library building from outside but have a spectacular architecture inside. This place was not in my place to visit initially. But from exterior of this library seems fascinating. From the old books, to the courtyard and beauty of every room, it's worth your time to visit. The Reading Room upstairs is a lovely place to sit and read among many people. The reading room is like hogwarts as in Harry Potter movie. Amazingly Boston public library is the second largest library in United States. The library also full of history and unique architecture as it was more than 100 years old and established since 1852.

Unique architecture of Sever hall. The archway admitting entrance into the west facade possesses an acoustical oddity. Whispering directly into the bricks of the archway, can be heard clearly on the other side of the arch.
