Today I harvested some angled beans from my garden. I am so happy that finally see the plant bear fruits. It took me a long time to germinate the seeds. I believed after 3-4 tries. Finally it grew and I didn?t see any flowers blooming. I thought the plant is doomed. After a few months, the plant begun to cover my pergola and I spotted a few flowers.
Now I see many flowers and keeping my finger crossed that the plants will bear lots of beans. Angled beans go very well with Sambal Chilies. I made some today and it is super delicious!
I have been waiting for this to come to Malaysia and it did. The last time I had Taro Pie was when I was in Hong Kong. It was really a coincident. I went to Hong Kong McDonald to get free WiFi to check my email. I went to the counter and look for the cheapest thing to order. Then I saw Taro Pie.
When I took my first bite, I already fell in love with it. Now I can eat it again because they are selling it here in Malaysia McD.
Of coz the Hong Kong ones taste better.
I tasted the best Mamak Mee Goreng from Penang Bangkok Lane. Usually I do not like mee goreng (aka fried noodle in mamak style) because it is very spicy. I cannot taste anything but chili. However this one that I have eaten, it is so tasty and not spicy at all. The sotong (squid) is done just right and absolutely delicious.
If you are at Bangkok Lane Penang, do order 1 yourself!

My aunt brought me to eat the famous XO Claypot Fish Head Noodle. It is delicious with their special chili sauce. I must tell you that the place is crowded and you have to avoid rush lunch hour. We went early and managed to get a seat. Definitely will go there again and giving it 5 STARS!
The place is at:
Goon Wah Restaurant
G13 & 14, Jalan 3/115C,
KP 2, Taman Kuchai Lama,
Off Jalan Kuchai Lama, 58200 Kuala Lumpur.

Don’t you hate it when you cooked some dish following the cookbook but it turns out that the looks does not match the picture of the cookbook. The other day I wanted to try out the Baliness Chilies Squid. Somehow I must have put too much turmeric, it doesn’t match the picture. Look for yourselves:
Anyway it tasted good!
I love to eat chicken wings and I discover the simplest way to make healthy chicken wings.
Ingredients
Chicken Wings
2 tablespoon Soy Sauce

2 tablespoon Honey
2. Heat up the oven to 350°C for 15 minutes.
3. Put aluminum foil on the pan and grease it a little.
4. Lay those wings on top, brush those marinated sauce on the wings to keep it moist.
5. Put it into the oven and baked for 15 minutes.
6. Brush more marinated sauce on the wings. Make sure the wings do not stick on the foil
7. Lower down the oven heat to 200°C and baked for another 15 minutes.
Wah la…juicy baked wings!
I love beef noodles. I missed Pho, Vietnamese beef noodles from San Jose. It is the best I tasted so far. I don’t know how they make the soup to be so tasty. It is best eaten on a cold day. The serving is humongous.
Near to Penang, the local beef noodles also very delicious. I found one along Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah, next to Ayamas which is superb. You have to try it. I will ask them to add more vegetables and beef tripe. Now I feel like having a bowl of this. :P~~~
Oh I miss the Clam Chowder in Fisherman Wharf in San Francisco. Every time I go, I must have it. It is creamy and has lots of clam in it. I wonder anyone here make it as good as the one we get there. If yes, please let me know. I can have a few bowls of this. It goes well with the fried calamari too. Simply delicious!
Today I am very disgusted with pizza hut because they delivered me uncooked chicken. I bite into it and found something not right. Immediately, I spit out everything that is in my mouth. I looked at it and found the skin and the internal parts not cook! Only the outside is cooked. 95% of the chicken wing is raw.
My goodness, how can they serve this to the customer?
Pizza Hut, I will never buy from you again! Look for yourself….
