of aquarium and laksa...

this is another backdated post. suppose to post it last night.

If I can give a theme to last weekend, i'd probably called it 'biting off more than I can chew'.
Take 1:
Friday nite. It was about 9 plus pm and I was feeling a bit hungry. Wifey suggested that I go out to enjoy myself with some sup kambing. Sounded like a good idea, so I headed down to kassim mustafa. When I got there, I thought i'll just ta pau instead since I hate enjoying myself without wifey around and i'll miss her (actually I parked illegally and wasn't sure if i'll block someone, but it sounded sweeter that way). Anyway, remembering that the sup kambing comes in relatively small bowls, I went ahead and ordered two bungkus. But when I got them, I thought, 'shoot! If I managed to finish them, my tummy will be as big as (if not bigger than) wifey's!'. The packets are HUGE!!!
Have a look at it, this is only one packet after I poured it out.

Not wanting to waste and always up for a challenge, I went for the second pack after I finished the first. What a mistake it was. As if there is a switch somewhere, the once yummy taste of the sup kambing turned yucky and I had to give up. Needless to say, my tummy felt like an aquarium.

Take 2:
After what seemed like an eternity of not having laksa, wifey and I went out for laksa at the stall behind penang plaza for lunch today. At rm2 for a tiny bowl, it's not cheap. But when it's that good, the brain will have a temporary amnesia of one's wallet. Anyway, me being a slow learner, ordered a second bowl before I barely finished the first (one on top of the fried popiah and cucor udang). Needless to say, I was again a walking aquarium this afternoon. I've only manage to get an 'after' shot.

Sorry, I'm a bit kancheong and lost memory of other tasks when faced with good food. So, no photos of the yummy laksa.
