Wow Super Asian Noodles!! Very Delicious!

Asian style kolo mee with little sauce but just enough to make up for an exquisite taste that favors the tastebuds. This Kolo mee is simple and usually, nice stalls even hand make the noodles themselves. Their special sauce usually gets passed down from former seniors in order to preserve their unique taste and home brand. So, what they put on top of the noodles may be a special combination of 'char siew' or minced meat or 'wantons' depending on the order. Try them with a cool glass of refreshing ice lemon tea.. very nice!

And then there is the all time favorite 'cha kuew tiaw'. Again the very nice ones awakens the nostrils immediately upon serve. They have a special redolence of the Wok that makes the fried kway teow exceptional in taste and it is so good, it makes people want to continue eating. Ask some folks in your town area for the popular stalls, try both the wet and dry version of 'cha kuew tiaw'...

Favorite South East Asian Tea Break

People who live at the South East Asian countries enjoy an occasional tea break in the afternoon to relieve the tensions from work or to catch up with colleagues or close friends. Typically, hot tea or coffee with the names such as 'Teh C' (Hot milk tea) or 'Teh Tarik'(Special hot milk tea with bubbles) or 'Kopi O'(Black coffee with no sugar) or 'Kopi C'(Coffee with milk) are common among coffee houses or 'Kopitiams'.

Renowned ones make their best tasting tea or coffees at the exact right temperature. They even know what customers like, for example some likes less sweet, others like more 'kao' or stronger taste/brew.. And then there is a little bread or cake to accompany. People order red bean buns or custard puff such as the one here which goes really well and smooth with the traditional cup of tea or coffee.. Some places also make fresh toast with a choice of different spreads including cheese, butter, butter with sugar, kaya, jam, peanut butter and the likes.. That is why the afternoon tea break becomes a habit..

Many ways to Cook Lobster for the Lobster Lover!

Lobsters are like the king of prawns.. and usually there are so many different ways to eat them.. One way is to enjoy them raw if the lobster is fresh enough. The flesh would be spread and put on top of ice while top notch restaurants will decorate the dish with cut carrots or as other creative ways possible. This one leaves the tail of the lobster.

Another way to cook lobster is by deep frying them leaving the crusts in tact so very much like how they cook crab. This dish can get harder to serve as people spend more time cracking the shells to extract the meat. But the taste is great! .. Lobster miso soup is a favorite soup which combines the delicacies of richly flavored lobster meat with miso paste. Hence anything made with lobsters can be pretty much an unforgettable experience!

Freshly made Indian Snacks or Fancy Canned Nuts?

To be exact, these freshly made Indian snacks are just marvelous! They are super tasty, crunchy and they make you want to eat more! They are not too salty or spicy or sweet. The excellent redolence in taste is a fine mixture of all the different flavors that you can experience in traditional Indian cuisine. Yes, it is a great taste to savor and it will make you remember. No wonder they label it the Legendary snack.


However, compare that to the fancy cans of fresh seaweed macadamias! The latter of course has better nutritional values, after all, they are one of the most highly packed sources of protein and good fat. So, why not try these as well? The seaweeds wrapped around each full moon shaped Macadamias makes it all the more savory and preserves the flavors of the sea combined with the aromas of the earth. Both are truly great and you ought to try them both!
