Kangkong Belacan

Was what we had for lunch today among other things. Kan ku gambar malas ku karang balek2 ku meliat *hehe* Accompanying that, me and Aby had Hainanese chicken rice along with keropok and erm a rather disappointing acar - first and last lah tu for me. 

It was an interesting day. No sun this week pasal weather has been predicted to be rainy. And rained it did, well drizzled more like. We finally bought some groceries including beras dari Thailand kecintaan ku. I simply can't stomach other types of rice, pasal either it's too karas for me or simply nya orang kitani inda masuk rasa (ada kah banar tu that phrase bwahaha).

I bought me loads of sayur to masak since I'm officially sangal of broccoli and carrots and kacang ijau. I also bought oodles of noodles yang kering so I can make mee goreng whoohoo! Can't wait. Just hope it can thrive in our little fridge. Biasa dirumah esbok dua yang basar hantap, datang sini macam mini fridge dibilik my parents *LOL* that's life out of your comfort zone!

What made the day more interesting was the fact that in the restaurant at first nda ramai orang BUT udah nya datang, orang Brunei saja hehe and even though at our table it was only me and Aby, kami memang nyanyah *hehe* apalagi the table of 9 students AND another table of two families dari Brunei. Atu riuh, it felt like I was back home! Even the waiter said to us sana orang Brunei sini pun orang Brunei hehe kira ramai jua kamu ani bejurit! 

Well man, dimana ada makanan yang brings us close to home, that's where people like us are most likely to flock that's all I can say. 

Ok then peeps, saya mau rehat dulu. Perut dah kenyang, kadiaku pun senyum lebar. 

Only thing was, I wish ada sefamili kedayan tadi atu in that restaurant, you know cakap kedayan hantap. I think that would've been ultra cool! Oh and don't say I'm stereotyping kah ucap2 kah because in me ada kedayan blood tau hehe and chinese and melanau to name others. 

Bah kan berehat ku daulu ah? Till then tata! 

Been a while

It truly has hasn't it. About a month approximately. 

I trust everyone's been doing fine. Don't worry I may not be updating my blog but i am still a very active blog hopper *hehe*

Things in the UK have been alright, I'm adjusting but I still miss Brunei especially the food like mad. So much so that I've been trying to emulate food from home. Ganya nyanta payah hantap mencari bahan2 sini ani, ada pun mahallllllll brabis! 

I've been to food blogs most of the time untuk dapatkan ilham on what to cook everyday that suits both me and Aby's palate. Sometimes it's not that easy! There are some Malaysian restaurants here but as you'd know, prices are not like pasar malam Gadong or CA Mohd! How I wish.

Occasionally we do order out but honest to God, sangal ku sudah with the Indian cuisine and Arab cuisine sini ani. Sometimes even the sight of either type of restaurants can pretty much make me gag. And yang paling out lagi kadang2 naik marah ku mliat hahaha 

My family will be arriving sometime in May, before that a cousin of mine along with her family will be staying for a week after she goes for her course in Holland. So that should be fun! I haven't been out much mainly pasal here walaupun usulnya matahari atu terang menderang it is still friggin' cold which I absolutely loath! Dalam rumah pun kadang-kadang kesajukan, seriously I don't have skin built for the cold *LOL* 

A lot of students are on Easter break at the mo and I had Nadiah (Nui's sister) over about a week ago which was fab since it's always nice to meet and hear and go bejabir bibiran with someone dari kampong *eseh* sudah atu. 

This Friday Aby will start his long holiday till Monday yeay! So my aim is...to go makan lagi at the Malaysian restaurant and shop for groceries untuk buat bermacam2 makanan. I've bookmarked some that I reaaallly want to make and not to mention make people who chat with me taisliur sedangkan they are in Brunei and pasar malam dapat diaga AND harga makanan atu 2 ringgit saja! haha Oh well, I got to learn someday right and when better than now. 

If people are wondering why I blab about food constantly, here AND on facebook, paham2 lah kenapa *wink*wink* I'm doing alright, just need to eat proper and all but now that my appetite is slowly coming back, I've been wanting to make the food I want to eat!

Alright then people, sorry no photos yet, maybe next time ya? Take care everyone! Missing you all!
