Sandy Loves Thai

It's the second time we went for Thai in 2 weeks. Sandy got madly about Thai food these days and she suggested we went to this place which was recommended by her colleague. I've heard about this place as well from my colleague. SO we decided to go one night when we met online. She jumped on the bus and I hopped on my scooter to meet there. I'm told that they've been running this place for quite sometime. When we got there, there weren't fully occupied, it seemed like a nice and cozy place with wooden furnishing



It's a Wednesday night when we went there, there weren't packed with customers but somehow it oozed some kind of atmosphere like it's in another world. I looked around the place while waiting for the food to come. Sandy loved the wooden furnishing and i told her she could bring that home lol.


This was my favourite of the night!! The shrimp cakes. They were much thicker than the previous one we went to. And the texture was great! Soft and chewy, and i loved the sauce too. The only thing i wasn't very pleased about it was the portion of that dish, only four pieces, not really enough!


And then it's the seafood salad with lots of onions and greens. I liked the drizzling of the salad, bit spicy though but it was a very good way to start a meal.


Here were the rice and the thai milktea. I like the milk tea but at the same time I'm worried about the calories. I've been eating like crazy these days since my birthday. A non stop fiesta has been on-going for quite sometime. My concern raises as my muffin top does. aha but Sandy said what the heck lol




This was the green curry but i didn't see any green in it at all. LOL But it's rather mild and smooth taste so not bad.







We were so full by the time we walked out that restaurant. And the prices were not bad as well. Better than last time. I'm still thinking about the shrimp cakes and wanna rush down the place and get myself some!!!!!!!!!!

Dragon Baot Festival Dumplings

This is the second year of me and my sis trying out wrapping rice dumplings during Dragon Boat Festival. Last year was a knock out so we are confident continuing this year. It was mama who pushed us at first, she's afraid that when we got married we knew nothing about cooking, lol. I wanted to learn it too cause i don't want to lose this unforgettable flavor.

It's rather a long process from the beginning to the end, preparation is always the hardest and the most tedious, plus I'm not very good at seasoning so am afraid will ruin the flavors so let mama to do the job. We first washed the bamboo leaves for wrapping the dumplings. And mama prepared pork, mushrooms, dried onions, salted yolks, chestnuts and peanuts. She first stirred fried and seasoned the ingredients with soy sauce and pepper and mixed the rice with peanuts and dried onions, then we were ready to go!

I'm never into rice, plain rice especially, I'm okay with fried rice, sushi, or even porridge, but I don't like plain rice. So mama was clever enough to mix peanuts with rice therefore we get to eat the whole thing instead of leaving it. I was a bit rusty at the beginning when wrapping the dumplings, the shapes didn't come out well. Mama was scolding at me, told me to watch and learn. And then I got better, the shapes of the rice dumplings came out really well, I'm super proud of myself! But we didn't take a lot of pics this year since it was late at night. But here is a pic of last year's during my first try and you can see here, I didn't wrap it properly! LOL

XOXO

It's been raining non-stop since last week till the weekend and the best pass-time is just to stay in and relax and that's exactly what I did during the weekend. But the shows on tv during weekends are just reround and they were boring, plus the non-stop showing batman series including the lastest dark knight. It made me sick to see dark knight twice or even more times in just one day. HBO was too lady and they shouldn't do this. Went to a night market nearby Sat night, it was drizzling a bit but there were still people hungry for food. We went to a steak house since we didn't know what to eat. But the steak was not bad, better than I expected. They had a small salad buffet where you could get corn chowder and salad but it's rather lousy. On the other hand the steak was better. Afterwards, we took a short stroll at the night market, also bought some coconut and sugarcane juice, I liked it but K didn't like the taste of it. We both thought the sugarcane was too sweet though.

The weather got better next day so we decided to go out and walk around, to grab a late lunch too. We went to this Japanese curry place. It looked not bad from the outside and K went there once with a friend, couldn't remember whether it's good or not. I ordered burger cheese curry rice with soup and K ordered deep fry pork chop curry rice, with salad and drinks. The burger meat was better than I expected lol which was good, the pork chops were so so though. I always have a thing for curry, Japanese, Indian, Thai and Malay, they all have their own singnature flavors. But i love them all :D.

And the sun came out on the way home, was very pretty but quite risky since i needed to take the picture while the scooter was riding lol. But I think I manage quite well. :D :D

bye bye
