AHHH There goes our long weekends! gotta wait for another month before I can enjoy another series of loooooooong weekends…
Have to mention the Ba Kut Teh my dad treated us to yesterday!
OUTRAM AH HUA ROU GU CHA
Honestly, it’s been a long time since I tasted a Ba Kut Teh this good! The ba kut and the trotters are super tenderlicious. The soup is a wee bit spicy because of the pepper (but pepper is a must have for all Ba Kut Tehs!) but the spice definitely did not ruin the true essence and taste of the soup.
Pardon me if I sounded ignorant, but I find the idea of having the fried dough sticks soaked in either the soup or the gravy of the trotters very brilliant and tantalizing. hehe~
Of course not forgetting the GIAM CHAI! I would love to have somebody to enlighten me as to why is it called the GIAM CHAI when it is sweet and not salty! Very appetising indeed. I swore I could have eaten the whole bowl of rice just with the plate of GIAM CHAI. Yums!
Totally oblivious of the fact that I need to go on a diet badly. :( Life’s gonna be meaningless…
But good food also comes with a “great” price…5 bowls of Ba Kut Teh, 1 bowl of pig’s kidney and liver, 2 bowls of fried dough sticks, and 1 plate of GIAM CHAI plus 2 drinks actually cost us SGD59! Seems like 1 bowl of small small Ba Kut Teh with only 3 pathetic Ba Kut Teh already cost us 6 bucks! JEEZ Kopitiam’s accredited good food that comes with a restaurant price tag. Oh well…
To ease my guilt of indulging in scrumptious meals, Mr GVM and I promised to make Mondays a “workout day” for us. WHEN I SAY WORKOUT, I MEAN REAL EXERCISING. Ahem~
Soooo…we started of with swimming last Monday…and something less tedious today…which is…
BOWLING
HAHA! see the scores and you can just tell how losers we started off…But Mr GVM did much better at the last set…haha he scored 103!!! WHATEVER!
Okay, let’s pray for the week to pass like lightning!
