Taiwan Spicy Noodle House, Paradigm Mall

Taiwan Spicy Noodle House is a casual eatery, with a menu specializing in all things noodles. You have to order and pay at the counter, and then they will serve the noodles to your table once it is ready. The menu comprises of three types of noodles, namely signature series (non-spicy), spicy series, and pickled cabbage, as well as bento sets (rice), side dishes and drinks.

Since we already had lunch and this was our teatime snack, we ordered one non-spicy noodle for the kids and one spicy one for us to share. However, we ended up eating both (haha kids were more interested in their drink) and skipped dinner. You can choose to have the noodles plain, dry or soup, or with toppings such as the wantan, fried wantan, chicken chop or pork chop.

For the spicy one, you have the option of having it "spicy" or "super spicy"...  we went for spicy as we're told it is quite hot. I think my mouth would not have survived if we had the super spicy one. But as you know, spicy food is damn addictive... although we were crying inside, we just couldn't stop eating LOL!



The spicy noodles, also known as xiang la mian is as advertised, both fragrant and spicy! It is topped with red chilli oil. The noodle itself was good, very smooth with a nice texture. The spicy one is definitely the way to go, if you can take the heat. We ended up mixing both the spicy and non-spicy  noodles together, and the spiciness then was more tolerable for me. Both noodles were topped with some crispy topping (I think its deep fried wantan skin and garlic). Overall, a very good bowl of noodles.

Spicy dry noodles (RM7.80)



Signature dry noodles (RM6.80)




We also had some side dishes, the fried wantan (RM7.80) as well as the spicy wantan (RM8.80). We felt that the side dishes were a tad expensive for 3 pieces, however they tasted good. Both wantans come with prawn and meat filling.




BabySumoKids had the lemon tea (RM4.80). They are currently having a promotion - RM1 for drinks with every order of noodles. We would definitely come back for the spicy noodles!

Go Ape Crathes Castle, Aberdeenshire, Scotland

We have a habit of picking up brochures when we're on holiday, as it is a good way to find activities for the kids to do. And this is how we found out about Go Ape, UK's No.1 Forest Adventure. The closest one to us was at the grounds of Crathes Castle, about 25 minutes drive away from Aberdeen. Located in the grounds of an enchanting 16th-century castle, Crathes is surrounded by 240 hectares of formal gardens, woodland walks and rolling Scottish countryside.

They offer the Junior Adventure as well as Tree Top Adventure here at Crathes. The Junior Adventure course is ideal for young kids (I would say 5-10 years old). At first glance, it may look deceivingly easy, but our kids found it both challenging and exciting. It costs £3.50 per child, which is an absolute steal, as it is unlimited play so your kids can play as long as they want. It is a fantastic way of spending a beautiful day outdoors. Some other locations may offer the Tree Top Junior which has more obstacles and crossings to enjoy.

Hubby and I had a little picnic at the grass area while the kids played. Highly recommend this activity for any young children looking for adventure and fun.

Kitted out in their safety harness and helmets, all ready for their adventure!


Lots of different crossings to challenge their young minds


Nets


This boy is so confident, after the first two rounds, he was zooming around like SuperDan.

Check him out here


Confident and brave young man


On the balancing beam... this is great for building up their confidence.







It may look easy,  but do not be fooled


While the kids played, we styled our macarons (macs are from here)




Stopping for a scone..




We enjoyed it so much that we came back again before our holiday in Scotland ended. :)






Another fun day! Click for video.


While the parents enjoyed the sunshine and got ready for our picnic in the sun
