Dinner June 15, 2010

I woke up late today and today's suppose to be sewing day but I skipped and watch tons of movies instead. I snacked while watching which was obviously not a wise thing to do but hey, my second last day of the hols...Yet I know when Hobbit gets home he would probably be starving from work and tutoring and another tutoring after dinner. Yup...that's my husband. Long day everyday. So I decided to put on the wife's apron and cook him a simple yummilicious dinner. It's for two so one dish suffice.

I rampaged through my fridge and found a pack of sayur manis, lots of chicken lap chiongs, onions and shitake mushrooms. At first I thought of making nasi goreng but heck my Indian movie was on hold and so...I just stir-fried all the ingredients with mushroom sauce and a bit of the steam fish sauce. Done! The man of the house was fed and I am happy! :)

Sundy Lunch at Khun Churn

I know I haven't been good with updating this blog. Many times I said "I will" but the will power wasn't strong enough to move mountains. I am kinda lazy and free today so my time has been on the laptop almost half of the day. While browsing my picture folder, I noticed lots and lots of food pictures. So I guess it's time to get my hands/fingers on this page.

Yesterday Hobbit and I had lunch at Khun Churn again. This is our second or was it the third time there. The food was so good and filling that we both skipped dinner. If you haven't heard of Khun Churn, it is a vegetarian restaurant located at a medical mall. I blogged about this place here. So, here's what we ate...

I ordered khao khluk kapi (comes in big servings)

Larb Esan (made of toufu since it's veg.)

Raw greens that comes with the larb

pineapple fried rice

Our favorite appetizer and I don't know the name still urgh!

June Potluck at G&G

Gwen and Glenn's relatives were here visiting the whole week and so they called for a potluck. Due to home church, we only prepared simple dishes --Sweet vegetables (sayur manis) and Sweet & Sour mackarel (yam phla ka pong).

Lunch June 11, 2010

Lunch for the home alone. Had lots of lentils still in the container. Soaked a handful and stir-fried with onions and curry powder. Tasted good when spread over hot steamed rice! :)

Dine at Hong Min, MBK

It was the last day of school and we felt like doing something together and so Nok and I went to Mah Boon Krong to shop and check out some stuff. I was actually feeling under the weather but I went anyway. All I bought was 2 working shirts for Hobbit and nothing for myself. I know...such a goody-goody wife! NO. We were hungry and randomly went into Hong Min (if I'm not mistaken) for some Chinese cooking.

dim sum #2

crab meat in yellow curry

fish maw soup for the sick me

The restaurant was not so busy when we stepped in but usually when I passed by any Hong Min restaurant after working hours or weekends, they are usually packed with people. For one reason, crab meat. Well, they provide good service, always checking on our table and standing close by just in case customers needed anything or want to re-order. Not too many on the dim sum selections though. We spent about 400+B for the above food we ordered including two bowls of rice. Both of us were satisfied with the food.

Dinner June 2, 2010

Had a long day at school and came home feeling hungry yet too lazy to cook. Noticed there's one more fish fillet in the fridge. Can't help but cook another round of fish curry for two. Went so well with rice and a couple of shows on tv!
