Smoked Salmon

Smoked salmon is one of my very favourites.. ! i used to eat them alot.. when i eat out at a restaurant.. when i was still working .. in Asia. Even during high-tea.. i wait for the smoked salmon to come out.. and then i turn into a vulture.. hahahah!!

Of course there is no such buffet around here.. 🙁 you can imagine what kinda disappointment ..i’ve been having for the last 7 years. PB donch even know.. how much i am sacrificing.. and the salmon here is ex..!! fishing village or not.. the seafood is darn ex man..!! Smoked salmon at 6.99 + tax .. for only a few pieces.. ! darn eh..??

Donch Act Smart!

Donch you just hate it..! when someone try to act smart .. in front of you ..?? Yes.. i have some folks who are like that..! and it just tickle the hell outta me..!! you would too..!

A customer came in today .. and saw me feeding Chloe lunch. PB had bought me lunch from DEAR Mr Choo’s, and customer said to me.. “you should ask Wilson (dear Mr Choo) for those shio kau, when he gets it sometime in Toronto”. I didn’t really answer him because he was actually talking to PB. And then he had to turn around.. and say this to me.. “you know what is shio kau? right..?” I could really roll my eyes..!! a “ang moh” asking me.. a “cina-totek” whether I know what a “shio kau” is.. ???!!!??? HELLLOOOOO..!!!! my grandmother fed me “shio kau” before she fed me milky you know.. 😛

So just a friendly advice to all the “ang mohs” out there.. !! do not ask a chinese.. if she knows what “shio kau” is..!! Donch act smart ya..!

Yes.. i do make BKT with whatever i can find to throw into a slow cooker.. although it ain’t authentic.. it is good for cold nites.. like now.. for winter seems to be coming earlier this year. It is very cold at nite.. and it’s chilly during the day time.

Keegan and Chinese Chilli

We had ordered some beef hor fun for Keegan (babysitter) to have for her supper (dinner as per us chinese), and when the food arrived, Keegan was very brave and of course her curiosity got the better of her.. since she sees me eating chilli sauce in every meal, she wanted to try some too. In which i had already warned her .. it was very “hot” as in spicy. But she was quite gung-ho about it.. and was determined to try it.. so i let her.

Well.. you could sorta guessed what happened.. muahhahahaha!! and i had already told her to get some pop or cold water ready.. but she didn’t.. so you can guess who ran to the cooler.. faster than speedy gonzales.. muahahahhhahaa!! I was tickled.. ! because no one thinks the chilli i have .. is spicy.. till they try it.. muahahhaha!! now dear keegan can go tell her parents and friends.. that it is confirmed.. i’m the “Crazy Chinese Woman” for eating such horrid stuff.. muahahahahaha!!

So the “ang mohs” here… better be careful .. and be real nice to me… coz’ i might just serve you with some really “hot” noodles or rice.. muahahhahahaha!!! if you donch play nice.
