I Love Food Message: I've grown up to love and appreciate the food laid out in front of me. My family members love food as much as I do. Its just a pity that my appetite is not as big as theirs. But I do manage to eat a lot when there's really really good food. I love all kinds of cuisine but have a soft spot for anything spicy. I cook for myself when I have the time. I bake for my family. And sometimes its perfect, sometimes its not. I'm not a professional chef, but I do love cooking. The aroma flowing out of the kitchen door is always the best, whereas the aroma coming out of the toilet door after a satisfying meal is not my favourite. There's so much more to know about me. Guess you're just going to have to find out. More about me. It's Chinese Take Out Time Adventures With Chopsticks
I don't know what this is called Aseana Cafe Bar @ KLCC Chocolat World CNY reunion dinner Welcome Home! Sick Food (literally) What's for dinner and lunch? Must eat back home What a day!

Saturday, September 20, 2008 Got to Boon Lay and took bus 30 to West Coast. Went to have LUNCH at 2.30pm!!! Hahaha Laksa - WAY better than NTU's OK!!! Went to Sheng Shiong at West Coast to get groceries as we would be cooking dinner. After that waited for buses 30, 51 or 143. 143 came and we naik bas. Went to bro's place and started preparing.  We have ABC soup in the slow cooker, rice in the rice cooker - DUH!, egg, vege (HAHAHA JUN YEN!) and fish is missing. Ahhh here it is. =) yes yes, overexposed. Lazy to recapture. Actually more like SCARED!!! hahaha it was frying and you know how oil splatters when you fry. TAKUT LAH! Hmm, I could eat it like that. It was fresh! PUKE PUKE! Hahhaa. I know this looks freaking disgusting. Its actually egg and minced meat. Hahaha Sorry. It was just so tempting. We steamed this. And this is dinner. There was dish, steamed egg and minced meat, lady fingers, xiao bao cai, wantons and ABC soup. I needed home cook food!! *grins*Backtrack for awhile k. In between cooking we watched a show. Its chinese variety show. Whatever its called. Its damn funny! The host was showing the people how the game is played. First a card of CHINESE phrases or words is held behind the person who will be guessing. The person who is giving clues have to give the clues in ENGLISH. And there was one which was in direct translation "eight big bla bla" But the host said this " one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,...." And the person guessed "eight". Next was the big right... he said this... "little.. pig. little pig!" Hahhahahahaa LOL! Big become PIG. So its in the end the fella was saying "eight little pig!!!" Then cleaning up. John, Yin Chau and Jun Yen washed the dishes. Hahha they lucky we washed all the utensils used in cooking as well as clean the kitchen. Was oily!  LOL! John's "collection". Nah, would be more if we didn't recycle. Its just put there until he decides its too many and then goes and recycle it. Chun Zhen and I had mooncake. *grins* We only ate half though.Labels: festivities, food, home cooked Tuesday, September 9, 2008 And on Sunday, John and Yin Chau went to market early to buy ingredients. Hahaha i didn't know lah! If I knew then... fine, I would still have slept instead. Hehehe Yin Chau made... the red bean soup dessert. Tong sui la. What's it exactly called I don't know. but you'll see. The one with red bean and pandan smell. Hmmm yum! I don't normally eat this ok. But I like the one Yin Chau made because... NOT THICK AND RICH (hahahaha Mr C says that's the kinda guy I gotta marry!) And back on topic.... The dessert wasn't too thick lah. It was actually quite watery. I like!! So yea, I like it. ;)
Then later on we prepared Bak Kut Teh. YAY!!!
Boiling the pork bones and meat together with the herbs. Ehhh, we actually go get the herbs and then put in those packet (AHAHAHAHAHA) so the herbs won't be all over the soup. It smelled damn good also!!
Then in went the meat balls and... sausages? Hahahaha. But it was nice la.. LOL!!! and then later on went the beancurd.
Prepared by yours truly. HAHAHAHA EH, don't mess ok. The rice was DAMN good! not too soft, not hard. Just purrrfect.
Sorry, overexposed. hahhaa.
And yes, that's my dinner. VERY satisfying ok. BEATS CANTEEN FOOD. *grins*
I need to go back to John's place more often when they cook =P Hmm, and since John pays for the food and stuff... I do his laundry! hahaha well I iron his clothes. hahaha and you know the irony? I don't even bloody iron my OWN clothes when I'm in NTU >.< hahahaha. Well its good. *happy happy* Labels: food On Saturday night had dinner at Mr Chen's place. Didn't take pictures of the last time I was there. Sadly - that time had kebabs and chips and dips and stuff. WAS SO GOOD!!! Anyhow, this time was Mr Chen's dinner.
