Of Butter Rice and Fried Egg

Here's the thing. My family don't cook for our meals. We rarely cook for our meals unless it's for some special occasion or there are certain requests by some of my family members. Most of the time it will be either mommy (for festive seasons) or yours truly (for those special request) who cook. I'm not a great cook but I'm pretty decent. Though my skills have gone rusty considering I didn't cook that often anymore like I used to. So, we either tapau or eat outside for every meal time.

Last night, no different than any other night, daddy called the warong that's nearby our place to order (they don't do delivery but they do accept order by phone then only we go and pick our order up). Unfortunately, they did not answer the call. 

Daddy: They did not pick up the call lah. You go and cook something lah.
Mommy: What to cook? There's no ingredients in the house. The only ingredients left are eggs and rice!
Daddy: No chilli? No onions?
Mommy: None. I have yet go grocery shopping. 
*Normally we do keep a few essential items in the house. The items are mostly leftovers from our previous cooking session*
Daddy: Hmm...
Mommy: You (yours truly) go and make butter rice and fried eggs. 
Me: ............................

I was so hungry last night because I did not eat proper lunch so I initially detest the idea. I was thinking that I won't be satisfied just by having friend eggs with rice. But considering we have no other options, butter rice and fried eggs then. Oh, I made butter rice because I want to put in a little flavour into the meal. White rice and fried eggs sounds a little blergghhh for me. 

Come dinner time. Took one bite of the food. My face changes. I thought "Damn this is pretty good. I might actually be satisfied with this." True enough. Few minutes later, with just a simple dish and even without proper lunch before, my tummy is a happy tummy for the rest of the night. All thanks to a very simple, bachelor-like dish, that I abhor.

Is there any food that you guys detest having it when you are so hungry and yet so filling and satisfying when you have it? Do tell. I want to know :)

all about bazaar

so, bazaar ramadhan has been quite a temptation. i should know. i didn't quite managed to contain myself when buying. kekekeke....

got all sorts of food. got burger bakar jb (it's a healthy option because the patties are home made. so no added preservatives ... kot XD), then got laksa johor, got mee rebus. in short got everything lah!

but one special food is ..... *drum rolls* CUSTARD CREAM PUFF! it's not special because it's healthy. not because it's that yummy too (well, it's okay lah kot but not that mouth watering). it's special because ........ a cute guy is selling it =) and i have been frequenting it ever since! got cute face, soft skin ... ahhh ... i'm melting ... =))

Durian Porn

After lunch hour, I went out for an inspection. It didn't take long. Just about half an hour. But it took me an hour to get back to the office. Reason being?


Durians..! Lovely, thorny durians!

I ate two durians on the spot and tapau 5 back home for myself and mum and dad. Funny thing happen when I was having a conversation with the seller.

Seller: Besar bang isi dia. Tebal dia boleh sampai 2 inchi! 
Me: Ye ker 2 inchi? Macam tak percaya je..
Seller: Iyer bang. Memang tebal. Saya rasa, picit-picit memang tebal bang! Memang sedap lah bang. Sekali masuk mulut memang sedap giler lah bang..

Which then it hit me ...... =p

Y U NO DELIVERY??!!

This is unacceptable!

Mommy and I decided to have fast food for dinner today. First choice McDonald's.

Dialled the delivery number but surprisingly, I can't get through even after numerous attempts.



So, dump McDonald's. Dominos, we choose you! *cricket sound*

Unfortunately, Dominos don't make delivery to my place.

Now, this is very much puzzling. My place is only 5 minutes away from the city. 10 minutes tops. And you don't freaking do delivery here?! To make the pizza normally it will take around 15 minutes. You have another 15 minutes to fulfil your 30 minutes delivery promise. So, why can't you deliver to my place?!



Arrgghhhhhhh...!!!!

Now, resort to maggi lor. Or maybe I'll cook some spaghetti. Malaysian style...

SPAGHETTI GORENG KAMPUNG SATU!!!!!

Lunch

I was going to put on the photos of my lunch but errr, I forgot to take the photos =p

It's a simple lunch. Or maybe one will call them as snacks.

A set of takoyaki and chicken pop.

I think I'm not full but I'm satisfied.

Tea time? Or late lunch?

Yesterday I went to the mall after office hours to have a late lunch. You see, I had quite a heavy and late brunch, so I decided not to go for lunch (errr.. who goes for lunch when they already had brunch?). And no it's not dinner because I ate white rice with beef in soy sauce later that night ^^ 

*I realllyyyyyy need to start dieting.. >.<'

Guess where I go? :)


SECRET RECIPE!!! Yeah, tuls sort of gave the inspiration in his comment in my last post. It's been quite some time I went there to have my meal. 


The outlet in Kluang is really funny. Sometimes they make a very bad coffee. Sometimes they put sugar in coffee and I don't like my latte to have any sugar in it. Luckily for me, yesterday the barista made quite an acceptable coffee. It's not too good but it's not too bad either. Boleh lahhhhh..


Decided to have some spaghetti. But I should have just chose fish and chips or maybe other westerns dishes because the portion is quite small -.-


P.S. Yeay! I put some pictures in my blog!
