Street Food

Bangkok street food. I like them

Grilled banana
My favorite - mango and sticky rice. I have this at Suvarnabhum all the time - even during transit. Yummy!

You can find this scene almost everywhere in Bangkok - or rather in Thailand . The Thais are one of the most enterprising people I have ever met.


Steamed

Happy Haloween

Spotted this at Publika. I squeezed 20 minutes before a meeting to check out an outdoor shop. Major disappointment. I prefer to pay a bit more and get good quality stuff. I don't trust Made in China

4 Corners

Would love to ride my motorbike around Peninsula Malaysia. Take a few days off with 4 or 5 rider s. That would be fun.

In the list.
I tried to escape from the insects outside my tent. The didn't seem to go away even insect repellant was applied. Decided to stay in my tent and read my book. I saw this one crawling on my tent. 

Its out side. Its small. This is a blowup.

Bye bye BKK



Almost a week in Thailand - company trip. 2 nights in Pattaya (yuck!) and 3 nights in Bangkok (I like!). The name of this airport is pronounced with silent "I".

Get it right!

My dream car

My dream car - I will get it.

Sup Tulang

I prefer to stem the potatoes separately.

Onion, ginger, garlic. I prefer more garlic. I love garlic

Don't just buy any meat / cuts. I personally prefer ribs. Personally selected from my favorite butcher in TTDI market

My sister thought me - all meat, poultry included need to be soaked in salt water first - for about 15 to 20 minutes.

Tumis

Cook the meat until it becomes brown (jus a bit) to seal the chunks.

Brown ike this ;-)

Slow cook for 3 hours

Squeeze some lime when you serve it. I forgot where I put the presentation photo. Damn it!

Alia Bastamam

Up and coming Malaysian designer. I like her design. Very simple almost minimalist yet still very elegance. An she herself has a very nice personality. A bubbly girl with lots of potential.

Venue: Frangipani

Ramadhan Kareem Pasta


I have stopped going to hotel buffet for buka puasa for years. Not only the quality of food, in some hotels, are not that great. They are overpriced. Besides, how much can you eat in one sitting? 

Instead I cooked my own pasta. Its a fusion because I add some cili padi while sautéing the garlic. The result: Just a tinge of spiciness from the oil.

The chicken is marinated with some salt and garlic before frying. Add some capsicum of different color for a little bit of taste and presentation. 

Once the pasta is ready just mixed the pasta and the sauteed garlic and cili padi in a big pot (no hear required) and ready to be served.

Sprinkle some parmesan cheese when serve.

Ingredients:

Pasta

Olive oil

Garlic

Salt and Pepper

Chicken

Cili padi

Capsicum (red and green)

Parmesan cheese

Bon appetit!
