Since I have nothing intelligent or stupid to contribute to the BN/BR blah, I’ll post photos of food, okay? Besides it is apt seeing that it’s lunch time.

Secret Recipe - carrot cake
Secret Recipe’s carrot cake

Actually I’d always thought it was damn weird for carrots to be present in Western-style cakes. I know the Chinese use lobak merah and lobak putih for various food, but the idea of a lobak merah with nuts and raisins and what-not in a sweet form… don’t know, I thought it was damn out of place. Needless to say I never bothered to try it. Until one day I got really hungry and the only instant thing I could eat in the fridge was a slice of carrot cake that my sister had baked. It was awesome :D And now I love carrot cakes, thanks.

As we all know, I am a semi-result of William’s evil plan for world domination by transforming PJ peps into baby elephants. The photo above explains the process.

The bowl was bigger than my face.

Homst - seafood kuey teow soup
Seafood kuey teow soup @ Homst

Homst is a Chinese Muslim restaurant in Kota Damansara. The seafood kuey teow soup was peppery and rather normal. Well, as normal as a seafood kuey teow soup can get.

Homst - lontong

My colleague had the lontong. He liked it.

Kiku Zakura - temaki
Temaki @ Kiku Zakura

My auntie was in town, and she belanja-ed me and eldest sis to dinner yesterday @ Kiku Zakura. The soft-shell crab temaki was rather awesome — you could taste the crab’s flesh, as opposed to biting into skin and oil elsewhere.

Kiku Zakura - unagi sushi
Unagi something or the other @ Kiku Zakura

I don’t like unagi.

    holy cow! the serving of seafood chowder is humungous! it is served in a bowl.
    i know i may sound like a ’sam pat’.. to be honest, our seafood chowder here is served in a shallow plate. a few sippings to give a kilat plate back to the chef.

    Wah liao, WIlliam’s gila one so big. Lucky I don’t frequent there. If not I’ll also fell into his trap. My friend once got a Unagi bone stuck in this throat, from then on, he avoids Unagi.

    Just incase i don’t ever get the chance to *ahem* explain myself, “high and mighty” is a GOOD thing! Unfortunately, GOOD things and ungood things don’t mix very well. I might have spilled Heineken on you or dropped a bag of Chipsters on Kid Chan. So yea, better not go so near. :P

    Was nice seeing you anyhow.. in real life.. from afar.. again.. :X

    BYE!

    p.s. Was Sunburst before or after the party? I guess before.. HMMM..
    p.s.p.s. Better not look at the food, baru makan saja.. hungry again afterwards.

    Good thing I checked your blog tonight… or I would have forgotten about the carrot-cake muffins in my refrigerator… which I’m now eating.

    Damn my local bakery is good.
