Ketam Kembangan

Just like last year, using the same ingredients but I adjust a bit and tweak the flavor and replaced the usual blue flower crab to a bigger flower crab.

A bit expensive from the ordinary, this crab is RM22.00 per kilogram, a 4 ringgit up from the RM18.00 blue and thin claw crab.

I bought this crab at RM31.00 for 4 crabs. With bigger and meaty claw I recon, this is surely a hefty dinner. I was satisfied the aftermath.

I added celery slices and cubed carrot instead of red and yellow peppers to give a nice and sweet smell. Not forgetting, the remaining crab stock from the earlier boiling is added to the sauce to enhance the taste. Then a white egg is added to thicken the sauce and to bond the sauce to the crab shells so you can sip more of the shell.

Hope you will enjoy the photos and try the recipe.

Enjoy!

Ulu logo - by Adzla

On the night of Ulu-bbq, we had a group photo shoot as we've been longing to do this. The image will be used as for new ulutopian logo as we've discussed over the months.

This is the original image.


And I silhouette the edges around. This image is lack of more profile of other overlap individuals.


I'm defining overlap individuals into more defined profile.


This is the final image and re-composed into other statement such as banner, logo etc.


Comments & critics welcome.

Chilling - Legendary Waterfall - by Otai

State	Selangor
Location	21 kilometers from Kuala Kubu Bharu on the road to the Gap
Coordinates and map	East 101 45.05' North 03 35.71'
Water Source	River
Waterfall Profile	3 Vertical Waterfalls
Accessibility	Hike and River Trek

There is a legendary waterfall that is rumoured to be very beautiful. It is a well kept secret - the area needs protection. Then as it is not developed, reaching the waterfall itself and playing around it, is treacherous. No safety measures are installed for those not familiar with outdoor life! Also remember that having large crowd is not an assurance but false sense of security.


You want to know its whereabouts?After crossing the steel bridge {on the way to Frasers Hill} you can park you car at the left. The trail starts another 100 meters up, take the small turning on the right. You can also cross the road from the parking place and scramble down to the river below. There is a signboard to inform hikers that camping is prohibited.If you decide to camp along the river, please be warned. This stretch of river from the road in to the park area had taken many lives. The open area looks tame, sudden flash flood submerges most dry ground !

Follow the clear trail and be prepared that you will have to cross the river several times! Not all crossings are in the open air, a few have the river water weaving in between boulders. Current is swift as the river is going through rapids. Water level here varies from 0.5 - 1 meter deep. This is a trek of about 2-3 kilometer and it will takes about 1 hour 30 minutes with thigh deep water at some of the crossings.

At the end of this exciting trek, a truly magnificent sight awaits you. There in front of you, is this monstrous fall, a great sight to behold. The vertical fall of the water has over the years carved great cervices on the rocks.Beware of the wet rocky walls by the fall. The fall of water is so forceful that its sprays cover the whole vicinity, giving it a misty ethereal atmosphere. The waterfall is about 50 meters tall. What is frightening, this volume of water drops within a deep crevices carved out from the cliff surfaces. A giant water sprout with plenty of "smoke".At the base rocks break up the falling wall of water before it enters into a 50 meters wide pool of varying depth.

If you still have the energy and are curious enough, follow a trail up the steep bank to the right of the fall. You will pass another waterfall (not accessible) before you reach the third waterfall. This place is better suited as picnic than that at the 1st Waterfall.Do bring your camera along to record your memorable trip to these remote falls!
