We feel lonely, sometimes to the point of tears, but we don’t let those tears come because we are not supposed to cry. Or how we feel a surge of love for a partner but we don’t say anything because we’re frozen with the fear of what those words might do to the relationship.
-Mitch Albom
eating is our national hobby! and i can attest to that cos my daddy is equally foodie as me! jus when i was super super super depress abt work and more work, my daddy took off, came to my client and whisked me off for pipping hot bakuteh on a cold rainy day! =) <3<3<3 my daddy! they mandatory chinese tea cups and pot! =))
the menu tt got me all excited and drooling! apparently this bakuteh outlet is damn famous but i didnt know abt it! even tw's president ma yijiu came but was turned away cos they were closing and the 2nd time he came earlier! there was even a hugh pix of him and the shop owner in the shop! the waitress were super high tech too! they used pdas to take our order! ||-_-
so anyway, my you tiao to dip into the peppery bakuteh soup later!
cai bay. its actually nt on the menu, but the regular will know wot is this, its nth fancy but juz the ends of the veg tt they chop into super small pieces and in the past, poor people used to eat this cos they couldnt afford fresh veggies. this is seasoned and yummy!
braised pig trotters! my daddy's fave! this plate is huge! i only attacked the meat part but some people love the fatty parts as it contains the most collagen!! =)
my braised winter mushroom! i <3 mushrooms and this is <3
mommy's blanched kidney+liver. this is definitely a no-no for me but mommy finished every bit of it!
and the <3 of the shop! bakuteh! the meat is tender and yummy. the soup base is the peppery kind as opposed to the herbal kind some other places sell! definitely a good choice for a rainy day!
