Homemade Lemon Meringue by Aunt Helena on Sunday because we had a special guest.
Potato Freak
Currently, the brat is a potato freak. She wouldn’t eat it for the longest time.. but now she asked for it all the time. Unfortunately, when she eats potatoes.. she refuses to eat anything else.. not even carrots..!
Sinful
Sinful..!! Very sinful indulgence..!! I’ve always allowed myself some really rich drink.. during the summer.. coz’ the sinful chocolate ice caps at Tim Hortons is not all year round. Well.. even if it was.. i wouldn’t drink it during the winter right..?? Donch get me wrong.. i ain’t afraid of the calories.. i’m just diabetic..!
More Chinese
As promised.. this was the second thing i ordered from our dear Mr Choo .. from the new Chinese Restaurant..! It’s a combo #1 .. and it was pretty good.. 😉 the rice and the chicken balls.. were good.. because the rice wasn’t greasy.. and the chicken balls.. had real chicken in it.. not like those from the other restaurant.
Daily Diet
This is my daily diet ever since coming to Canada. If you have ever been to Canada.. you would know that everyone in Canada.. love their Tim’s..!! I’ve come to love my Tim’s coffee too.. but just one cup a day.. a medium coffee one cream. I am so regular.. the girls i donch even have to tell them what i want.. they know before i order.
I tell ya.. the ppl who owns Tim’s are making big bucks.. coz’ they are more popular than Starbucks.. or Coffee Bean.. or Second Cup. Ppl here can go without alot of things.. but not their Timmy’s coffee.. 😉
Sweet & Sour Pork
I ordered this a few days ago. It was pretty good.. and came with rice.. and chilli sauce. Although it was good.. of course.. it is nothing like the ones we can get back home… but this is really better than what i have had ever.. 😉
KFC local style..?
Today is Toonie Tuesday here in all over Canada .. i believed. Meaning .. you get 2 pieces of chicken.. and french fries.. or coleslaw.. or marcoroni for just 2.29 + tax. No drinks ok. With the exchange rate.. for the above in Malaysia.. it will only cost us 2.89 canadian dollars..!!
Now if only we can earn the Canadian dollars here.. and go spent it in Malaysia..!! “fatt tat” lor..!! But seriously..! the “We must have rice” slogan is really funny..!! who else but an asian.. can think of something like that..?? If you ask me.. i want rice anytime.. instead of coleslaw or macoroni..!
I so miss home..!!
Beef Hor Fun
This was the beef horfun.. that i first had.. at the new chinese restaurant. It was not in the menu… but i wanted to see if the new owner .. would be too “sombong” to go the extra mile. But he wasn’t… and the beef hor fun was excellent, a wee bit saltish.. but Vien from Raising Belle had said.. that it was more “ang moh” taste. “Ang mohs” love to pour half a bottle of soya sauce into their food.
Exciting Food News
I have food pictures and exciting news to share with all.. about the new chinese restaurant in town. But i’ll wait till i upload the pictures before i continue.
I also hope to take pictures of the inside of the restaurant for everyone. I had take-out. But according to PB .. the decor is way better than the old chinese restaurant that was there.
I’m excited.. because they would cooked stuff that ain’t in the menu for me.. and food is good..!! from what i’ve tasted so far.. and the new owner.. they are way more humble.. than the other chinese restaurant in town. The owner even got PB to give him our # and called.. to check what i think of the food. Now that’s what i call customer service eh..??
I’m so happy .. coz’ now at least.. i have another choice. You all must be happy for me.. eh..??
New Century Restaurant
There is hope for me..!! the new chinese restaurant is opened.. and the menu looks promising..!!
They do have duck.. but gotta order 1 day in advance.
They got a Szechuan Specialties in the menu.. i just hope it is not canadianized.. now that would be disappointing.. if it was.
Nope i haven’t eaten there yet.. but spoken to the owner.. and wished him best of luck.. on his opening. And told him .. i’ll wait a few days.. to let him settle .. before i come and eat.
I think it is promising .. because their hours are longer.. and the owner is very nice..! and accommodating. Menu also longer.. and more to offer..!!
Mr Choo.. i wish you every success..!!
