A long awaited food post!

First of all, I’m settling back in Scarlett. I’ve missed her but I wouldn’t trade the trip home for anything. It was a superb time, a little eye-opening at times but I cherish all of it.

While I was home, my cousin K planned a really fun road trip up to KL and Malacca (Melaka). The 7 of us hopped in a minivan and off we went. The most fun times were those on the road – when you’re in a vehicle together, you are almost forced to interact or you could just snooze.

Some big thanks to Chowhound, I was able to point us in the right direction during meal times. One of the more memorable meals was this one at Greenview. It’s in Petaling Jaya just outside of KL but we got lost in the dark and it took us quite a while to find the place. In the end, it was still worth it, the food was delicious and fellow road trippers went home with happy tummies.

Here’s what we had:

Sang Hang Meen (Prawn Noodles) – the prawns were huge and so good, and that eggy gravy, scrummy!

Baby Romaine Lettuce sauteed in Fu Yu (Fermented Bean Curd) – new favorite veggie dish

Homemade Tofu – looks plain but very flavorful

Marmite Pork Ribs – who knew Marmite could do such wonders?

Honey Squid – perfectly sweet and salty.

Salted Egg Crab – so rich and delicious.

I wanted to wish my mum a very Happy Mother’s Day! Mum, your love and concern will never go unnoticed or unappreciated. I am very excited about this new phase in your life – so much closer to us!

I love you!

I have been trying to find myself lately. The reality is that I’ve been here all this time.

Lately, it’s been about transitions for me. I can’t quite say that I like it but with change comes a lot of new chances for good things to happen. I think that’s how I cope, mostly.

Soon it’s goodbye to Singapore, for a while. I’ve been grateful for the time here. I never thought that I would get this opportunity but I’ve been blessed.

There are stories to tell, pictures to share and plans to make but for now, I wanted to be thankful.
