I remember last time when i was young... i was "hiam jiak" aka picky about food. But after I went to Oz-land, siao liao... I become "simi also jiak" aka everything also eat (literal translation).
But really.. I am not the only one... I know of others who are like me who made the transition from Bamboo to Angsana Tree Trunk. Serious! No BS ok! Next time ask me for pics to prove. I will decide before showing you lah hahahahaha.
Actually come to think of it, also not very accurate to say that i "hiam jiak" when i was young lah. Its just that I used to MIA when seafood was served or just plain avoided all the fish and fishy tasting stuff. I only ate selected vegetables, eggs and meat. A typical meal at home for watashi (me) would be :- Rice, Steamed Egg and Steamed Minced Pork with Salted Fish in Dark Soya Sauce. This kind of food is like what a friend of mine will describe it as .. "Comfort Food".
Nowadays I don't even get to eat such stuff anymore because my mum is more into one dish meals aka Sesame Chicken Mee Sua, Black Chicken Bee Hoon Soup, Chinese Olive Rice with Chicken. The reason behind the one dish meals are because its easy to prepare and when she finishes, its just in time for her K-Dramas on Ch. 55 (SCV).
And so, when I went to Perth many moons ago, I was introduced to a whole new world of food (literally another world man..).
- I never see so many different types of pasta before (i only saw spaghetti at some cafe in a hotel last time).
- I never knew that fresh cream on top of hot mocha coffee would taste so heavenly (Vienna coffee).
- I forgot how many times I had 4am suppers of Baby Back Ribs in BBQ Sauce and Mint Juleps at Fast Eddys in Fremantle.
- I learnt how to eat Sashimi and eventually many other Jap dishes. (to think i used to snub Jap food)
(Sometimes i wonder i went to perth to study or just to eat myway through?)Yah but i think at that time.. I was subconsioucly carrying out the "Super Size Me" kind of experiment lor. I could like gobble 14 pieces of pizza at Pizza Hut's buffet dinner.. Really no eye see man... *shudder* And i think i better not try to remember what other astounding gastronomical feats I attempted there.... its getting quite off already..
And so the actual purpose of this post is to inform my friends that if you are looking for food kangtao, please come and ask me. Especially those who are real clueless about directions can check with me where the place is located before wasting petrol going round and round the estate just to find like one wanton mee stall! can peng lor!
OR if you are wondering whether the estate which you stumbled upon has nice food, can sms me lah. I reply you or not is one thing. The fact is that I know whether got nice food anot k...
In case you say I am all talk and no Kangtao. I recommend you all lah.
