mummy's day :)
my 1st attempt cooking bak kut teh was still a-OK!
not too bad for my 1st try but i think i know what to improve on next time; that would be on the black pepper portion, the garnishes (which i've somehow left out ~ hahaha) and not to peel too "clean" for the garlic. i'll try to do better next time!
mr. lee was really sweet to come over to my place to help us fix up our SUPER OLD comp. well, basically to help gracie pull out all our old data esp the photos and the MP3 and to burn them into the CD. did i just mention that our system's really SUPER OLD? i gotta emphasis this cause i think the comp's about 4-5 years old... serious! since no one's been using it, we thought of selling it away - most prob, very CHEAP.. CHEAP away :P
while our hardworking "technician" transferred the data and in the midst of waiting, we watched TV and drank bak kut teh. by 5pm, we're almost done and gracie was "shoo-ing" us to be ready cos she's having cravings for AMK's butter crabs. it was a last min decision and so, we decided to try our luck in the hope of a "not too long" Q for our turn.
unfortunately, we were WRONG ~ both kopitiams were packed!
full seatings in both places but there were people queue-ing for their turn.
just imagine the wait! we changed our minds and headed out to another part of AMK for assam fish head curry ~ yummyz ~! (check out my food blog @ http://makanprintz.blogspot.com/ for details!)
not a bad decision afterall ~
we managed to get seats pretty quickly, just before it got too crowded.
even though the service was alittle "off" cos the auntie was kinda blur by the crowd (they ain't like that usually under "normal" business days!), i'm still a fan of their assam fish head~!
bought mummy a pretty "cute" bunch of flowers, right in the middle was a pink rabbit cos her chinese zodiac's "rabbit" mah :P
