let's give a helping hand by just switching off the light just for 1 hour, this 28/03/09 8.30pm

we might save the environment from global warming by doing our part.

Balut (half grown egg)

Ok here is a fear is not a factor, its not for people that have phobia of eating something that is not fully grown lol
you will know what i mean looking in the pic.

On my trip to Philippines, one of my friend in Philippines bring me a egg called 'Balut', i have no idea what it was until i open it.
Balut is a Philippine word, i dont know what it is called in english, its just a half grown embrio egg,

Just like what we normally see, just a normal egg from the out side



To eat this egg, they have a technique, what they do is open up the top part of the egg, and then suck the juice in it, at first glance its a ugly looking egg that u dont want to put in your mouth,
but after tasting the juice, it taste like 'Tea Egg', surprisingly lol.After sucking dry the juice, its time to eat the egg, we peel off the egg shell, u can see its hairy,
for the first timer's they recommend to put the whole egg in the mouth and chew it, cause u can see the intestine if u bite it half.
Other will feel it hard to swallow, but for me its just like normal egg, and it taste just like normal egg, if you dont think about it.

They have few grades, the grades is determine by the days it is bred.

Chow Tofu(smelly bean curd)

Since today i have some free time, im going to introduce some food that stinks lol.

Looking at the Q, i dont have to say a word,people are crazy for this piece of smelly bean curd


Next to this stall there is a stall selling the same thing, but it aint smelly enough, this stall i can say u dont wanna go near it, but people is lining up and waiting, so i just try it out following the craze,

I bought tofu is in Ampang during some festival, but they have it in other pasar malam(night market)

This is what they use to soak the tofu in, what i smell is like expired milk, when im standing near i dont smell any thing, only a little bit, but when im far phew!!! u wanna run away

After lining up for 30min this is what i get,

I can say the taste is just deep fried tofu with a bit sourish taste in it, and they give a pack of cabbage and chili sauce. The cabbage is a little bit sweet and spicy, just enough to cover the smell.
So overall i can say our malaysian version smelly tofu is not that hard to eat hehehe.

here is what i find in Taiwan, lol

Evan the seller also wearing a mask hahaha, i did tried it, all of my friend beside me just run away lol, it's alot more smellier that our malaysian version, but the sauce and the cabbage cover the smell a bit.

I didnt get to try the wet version of smelly tofu, its not deep fried, and i heard its 10x worse than the deep fried.

Bye Bye Penang

After we bought the Apong Guan we headed back to Mount Erskine again to look for the chinese passembo but luck was not in our side,lol.
So insted we order other food.
The wan tan mee there i tasted, turned out very good.
This is call 'tua pan koay teow'


This is the oyster porridge

This popiah is the boom. Theres alot filling inside and also crab meat in it.

the last view of Penang b4 we headed back KL

Burmah Road

Ahhh who can resist Apong Guan in the busy street of Burmah Road even Ho Ciak also interviewed him, see the Ho Ciak sticker. He sells the best apong in Penang, and you can't ever find this kind of apong in other states



If your thinking of getting some souvenirs for your neighbour, Him Heang is the best to get it.
A place that u can get the best fresh baked 'Tau Sa Piah' and other stuff
