'Bak Good Teh' and Midnight Blues
Sigh, woke up after midnight to realize I fell asleep without taking a shower. Yucks, have the horrible dry sensation at the back of my throat. Dang MSG (monosodium glutamate)! Oh well, while waiting for my hair to dry, may as well pen another blog entry.
Oh yeah, I had another bak kut teh earlier for dinner at a shop called 'Bak Good Teh'. (Go figure) For the uninitiated, bak kut teh means 'meat bone tea' in mandarin. (Yes, those Chinese classes finally paid off) After the 'Click' movie today, I had a most delightfully filling bak kut teh meal today. Huge portions of meat, lovely soup and my favourite 'yau char kway' (translated deep fried ghost, I think). Actually, 'yaw char kway' is just a long shaped dough, deep fried in oil. A most delightful companion to coffee. Yum.
Anyway, I wish they'd lay off the MSG. Give us fellow Malaysians a chance to live longer and savour more different types of cuisine. Yawn... (patting hair), yup just a bit more and it's back to Dreamland... good night.
