Asssssssam Laksa!
Michelle, my colleague often asks me what I have for lunch since I always bring something fabulous and something good and nutritious and something colourful thanks to my mummy! I realised how fortunate I am to have a mother that cooks and packs me a wonderful lunch everyday! So anyway I was talking to her and I told her that I brought laksa today...
Then Alvin came over and he wanted to ask me about one of my students, and he was like, "Oh sorry sorry I'm interupting your conversation..."
and I said, "Oh no, it's alright, we're just talking about my lunch..." *smile*
Alvin said, "Oh what did you bring for lunch today?"
"Just laksa," I said...
"WAH LAU, you have laksa for lunch?! POWER LEH!!!"
hahaha cracked me up so bad! I didn't know that laksa got power but ok!...
And then it started bringing back all the wonderful memories I had in Penang eating Asam Laksa everyday (which my tastebuds have totally forgotten about) mmmm...!
So we got onto talking about Penang Food and this food that food, all said in Mandarin which, mind you I totally didn't understand.
Then Alvin says, "Where are you from?"
I said, "Australia..."
"Oh... then it's a bit difficult to explain to you..."
... mmm. Oh how I miss Asam Laksa and the RM8.50 Char Kuey Teow with mega huge king prawns from Penang!
Maybe my mummy can make next time instead of Curry Laksa.
Makes me hungry looking at all these pictures!
