ReplyDeletefood for tots: Uhmm... I'm not so sure why I don't like chocolate ice cream, I just find it tasted no yummy at all, hehehe...
ReplyDeleteHave you tried SilverQueen? ;)
foodbin: The price is ok but then with the same price, you can buy 3 bowl of the same sweet porridge on the street ;)
No. Dun think I have seen this in Msia or Spore before.
ReplyDeletefood for tots: are you interested to try one? Maybe I can ask my friend who is going to Singapore next week to bring it for you? Let me know, ok..
ReplyDeleteI guess it is too troublesome. Thanks for your kind offer. I feel so touched. ;)

Good thing you put that 40 minutes left for lunch hour to use! I was wondering.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these things about you!
I love peanut sauce AND galangal. That sounds delicious!
ReplyDeletewow, satay sauce with galangal...that shudda give it some zing and aroma...very interesting! i am imagining the sauce with a nice beef steak and buns! yummy!
ReplyDeleteMTC: Hehehe.. yeah, should not waste the lunch hour :)
ReplyDeleteAh.. I should also tag you coz' I would love to learn more about you, would you do it, please?
mica: You like galangal? the aroma is nice, ya? :)
nic: Niiiicccc.... the galangal is in the indonesian salad peanut sauce, not satay peanut sauce, hahahaha! But then, actually, I think your idea of the galangal peanut sauce with a nice beef steak and buns sounds great! A new recipe invented by Nic ;)
i adore pizzas like no other!
ReplyDeleteand i like chocolate, but seldom choose choco flavour icecream, if there are other options.
hehe... same same eh
j2kfm: Yay!!! another pizza lover! Funny right? as chocolate lover, it's a big no for chocolate ice cream! hehehe...
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I am so hungry. I must not read your blog when I am hungry!
ReplyDeleteAny desserts with coconut milk in, just send them to me :)
I like licorice too, and anise flavors. When I was little I used to buy anise balls - you suck them for ages and the reward is a little aniseed in the center. Lots of people don't like that taste though.
livie: Hahaha.. I can't be more happy to share all my coconut milk desserts with you! :D
ReplyDeleteuhmmm, maybe a lot of people don't like smell/taste of anise flavor coz' they associate it with cough syrup?
I'm not sure which to congratulate you on, the award or your post-Soto trip to Lotek Kalipah Apo. So congratulations on both! Those sweet porridge desserts look really colorful and delicious. I'm so bummed that the U.S. hasn't caught on to how amazing these types of desserts are! Ah, just another reason for me to move back to Asia. :)
ReplyDeletesapuche: Thanks, Sapuche :) Are you planning to move to Asia for good?
ReplyDeleteI want some LONTONG!! Are you sure you're not into chocolate ice cream?? You must try Baskin Robbin's Peanut butter chocolate... or Godiva's choc ice cream! It's to die for!
ReplyDeleteHi Selba: Well, I'm being recruited for a job in Taipei at the moment, but my heart is still in SE Asia (and Japan). If I don't return to Asia permanently, I'll still travel there as often as possible. Kind of hard to live so far from my parents, though...Thanks for asking!
ReplyDelete550ml jar of faith: Hahaha... can tell that lontong and chocolate ice cream are your favorite food :D
ReplyDeletesapuche: Me as an asian, it's so nice to know that someone who isn't from Asia has a heart in SEA, it's an honour :) I hope that your dreams to live in SEA will come true someday.
