But that does not even come close to telling the story of a game that saw Chelsea hit the woodwork five times before the interval, including a terrible miss from Salomon Kalou, Kevin-Prince Boateng fail to convert a penalty shortly before Drogba's winner that could have set up a fairytale finish to a shambolic season of turmoil at Portsmouth, and even Frank Lampard fire wide from the spot three minutes from time. Given the financial straightjacket they find themselves in, this was likely to be Pompey's last major final for quite some time. That certainty, at the end of a campaign where you are £135million in debt, in administration, have had nine points deducted, been relegated, not been paid your wages on time on numerous occasions and seen players sold at a moment's notice, probably generated a devil-may-care attitude within the Portsmouth squad.
Frederic Piquionne brought a staggering reaction save out of Petr Cech and Aruna Dindane failed to make clean contact as he tried to turn home Piquionne's cut-back. By any standards, these were glorious openings which Portsmouth might have had cause to regret if it were not for the fact that Chelsea were enduring frustrations of their own so great Drogba ended the half beating a post in total frustration at his side's inability to get the ball past it.
Within this flurry of activity came a contender for the best save ever seen in a cup final, and that miss. Chelsea's victory will save Kalou extreme ridicule, but he knows his own contribution is going to be replayed so often he will never escape. Frank Lampard had already flashed a shot against a post and Chelsea were on top when Ashley Cole, the first man to win the famous old trophy six times, drove deep into the Pompey box, completely outpacing Aaron Mokoena. Fabio Capello would not have been the only one to admire his sublime cross, which completely took David James out of the game and presented Kalou with a four-yard tap-in.
The Chelsea fans were already on their feet, arms aloft in triumph, when Kalou's side-footed effort soared skywards and thudded against the bar. For a moment or two, the stadium was completely silent, as if unable to comprehend what they had just witnessed. The eruption of noise from the Portsmouth end confirmed the reality. Within a couple of minutes John Terry had glided a header against the bar, but that was nothing compared to the free-kick Drogba curled towards the top corner later on. Somehow, James managed to reach it. His touch was only faint but it was enough to push the ball onto the bar and down, smack bang onto the goal-line. So, when Drogba fired a low effort against the post four minutes from time, little wonder the offending upright suffered the backlash.
For once, a half had been completed with no one mentioning the pitch. An odd colour it might have looked but it was not restricting the entertainment value, which included a penalty 10 minutes after the restart. Introduced for Michael Ballack, who had been the subject of a vicious first-half tackle from Boateng, Juliano Belletti had not quite got his bearings. And when Dindane nipped past him, the Brazilian lunged in and sent him sprawling.
After all that had gone before, the entire stadium had the sense this was the moment that would give the underdogs the trophy. Except Boateng had not read the script. So bad was his effort that Cech, having gone down early, had time to make the readjustment required and boot it clear. Within three minutes, Drogba converted his magnificent free-kick and the dream was over. Had Lampard scored when he was bundled over in the box by Michael Brown three minutes from time, Chelsea would have deserved it. He did not. It was that type of extraordinary game.

We have decided to come over to Kepong to try the Happy City Steamboat. Eventually, I've tried many times already but still I haven't share with you guys how's the taste of steamboat of this restaurant. Normally, this restaurant is very packed with people especially in the weekends. The reason is many people come to this steamboat restaurant because of the soup are very nice indeed and the ingredients are also very fresh.
Once we sat down, we were immedietely served by the waiter and waitress there. Their service was good at times and can be poor sometimes depending on the amount of crowd in the restaurant. We've ordered a 'Yin Yang' soup with 2 persons steamboat portion of food. The Yin Yang soup both were very nice indeed. The 'Ching Tong' soup are sweet and nice. The best of the best is of course the Ton Yam soup where it was superb. You can taste the sweet, sour and spicy in the same time and the taste was just nice. I was amazed with the soup and I've been here for almost 30 times in the past 1 year.
The price meanwhile were moderate and not expensive though. For per head, they charged RM14.50 depending on which soup you take. For 'Yin Yang' soup is free but if you take other soup such as pot of porridge, wine soup etc. you may need to add additional price for that. The bill came is about RM31.50 for me and Kimmy and we've ordered 'Heong Pin' tea. I would totally recommend you to this restaurant as it serves one of the most delicous steamboat ever can be found in Kepong. Have a try and I guess, you will come back again! 
The Black Pepper Crunch, introduced by KFC is a very successful flavour at the moment because it's totally nice and delicious. You can smell the fragrance of the Black Pepper inside your mouth and guess what, I felt that it's not enough too because I've ordered Snack Plate only. Besides, I was sitting near the counter and I can see many people ordered the Black Pepper Crunch as well. Alan meanwhile ordered Dinner plate. Remember to go and try out the brand new Pepper Crunch from KFC and I bet you will love it. 
Let's go straight to the food comments. The bean sprout was very nice indeed and it looks big. I guess you won't find those in Kuala Lumpur or Penang. The taste was superb and nice. Meanwhile today's white chicken looks tasty and delicious. The chicken is very smooth indeed and once you put into your mouth, you can feel the tastiness of the chicken. A very recommended dishes for you, your friends and your family. You can also ordered fish balls as your meal as well. I can tell you is the fish balls were also very fresh and tasty as well. You can order this as well. The kuetiau mee also taste nice and sweet. The soup is purely marinated using the prawn as well and that's why you can feel the sweetness of the soup. You should give it a try instead of the chicken rice.
The price is pretty reasonable as well. It's not too expensive nor cheap and the bill came it's RM32.00 for 4 persons meal. This restaurant is also well-known for its popularity until Hong Kong where many artists who came here for shooting will definately never miss a chance to try out the taugeh chicken over here. A very recommended place for you to try out the food over here. :) 
We've also ordered 'Char Siew Pau', 'Yee Mai', 'Siew Mai', 'Har Kau' & of course their main course "Speghetti Char Cheong Mee" serve with a soup. This main course was very nice also and it's big portion as well. Now, on their lunch menu, you can actually try out their newly Rice & Mee menu. Last time before they introduced the lunch menu, they only sell Dim Sum in the mornings and afternoons. If you are in Ipoh during the lunch hour, don't worry or do not hesitate to come over to Foh San as you can still enjoy their Dim Sum and can be served with Rice or Mee as well. Just now when I was there, there were very little people only probably some do not know and some people do not like to take Dim Sum for lunch.
Overall, the food was amazing and very nice. No doubt it was very famous not only in Malaysia but people in Hong Kong and Singapore would also dropped by here to enjoy the Dim Sum. The price here is reasonable and not as expensive as in Kuala Lumpur. Think Ipoh, Think Foh San. 
I have invited my old long friend Joanne Lau to come out together for a yumcha session since so long we did not meet. We have decided to step into De Garden and try out T.O.S Cafe (Taste Of South) as I got the recommendation from her. We reach there restaurant at about 10.30pm and once we sat down, we received a warm welcome from the waitress over there as she brought us the menu. We looked at the menu and Joanne pursue the waitress to intro to us some great light food over there as our snack menu since it's very late already.
Once I look into the menu, I saw they actually served western food, mee, chinese food, toasts and some other interesting drinks. Their concept is like Papparich where they served the food described above. It took us about 10 minutes to look into the menu to decide what to eat for our light snacks. Joanne had ordered French Fries and Half Boil Egg. For me, I've ordered only Banana Smoothies and Joanne ordered Chocolate Ice Cream Smoothies. Overall, the food was great too especially the drinks. The French Fries meanwhile was nice when consume with the tomato sauce which mixed together with the Thousand Island sauce. The half boil egg was normal. Both Chocolate Ice Cream Smoothies & Banana Smoothies was very nice indeed with special taste. Banana lovers, I guess you would love this drink as it was not too sweet and nice to consume. Please see photos. The price meanwhile was just as standard as other major cafes and it's not cheap nor too expensive. The bill came and it costs us about RM21.80 (plus tax). 
According to other blog that I've visited about this restaurant comment, they said that the food here was nice and you should give it a try. I did not get a chance yet because I was here during yumcha time where it's already late at night. If you visit Ipoh or you stay here permanently, just give it a try on T.O.S at De Garden in Ipoh Garden. I trust the bloggers comment on this restaurant and what they is is true. A good and cozy place for fine dining, yumcha and having party here too. Give it a try folks! :) 
This restaurant is also a branch to SS2 Murni and it was a best place to dine in. Today the crowd is a bit less compared to weekends where you hardly can find a place to sit especially during weekends. Once we sat down, we have to wait about 5 minutes before the waiter can come and serve us. From what I can see, they are lack of waiter and waitress and the service is a little bit sucks.
I've ordered Nasi Goreng Tom Yum and Alan ordered Mee Raja. For drinks, I've ordered Teh O Ais Limau (RM1.50) while Alan ordered Sirap Bandung (RM1.50). The Nasi Goreng Tom Yum (RM5.00) was above average and you can smell the tom yum taste once you put it into your mouth and it was of course mouth watering too. When you are here, perhaps you can try out the nasi goreng tom yum as recommended on the menu. Meanwhile Alan's Mee Raja (RM8.00) was a bit dry but Alan said that it is just nice. It's a very special dish over here and recommended by the menu as well. But I did try some from Alan and I find out that definately the mee was a bit dry and the taste was just average. Nothing special though about the taste but the mee was very soft. For drinks, both of our drinks was pretty sweet too. Maybe you should ask them to lessen the sugar once you ordered the drinks.
I would still recommend you to come over to this place as it was a good and cozy place to have your food. You may try their western food which is reported to be good too. I will be going back again to try out other food later as I wanna kick off my visit today to try out their local delights first. The price meanwhile was average and I would say it's not cheap nor expensive as well. Our bill came and it's RM16.00 with NO TAX. A great place to discover inside Aman Suria. I bet you will love it.
