Like every great author has experienced in the history of the Written Word, the great Prawn has been, of late, suffering from writer's block. Due to my utter lack of creativity coupled with a highly uninteresting life, i have decided to base the structure of my following post upon that of the highly accomplished blogger and food critique -
Foo Wee Yee, Lynn. (www.fooweeyeelynn.blogspot.com)
Knowing the magnanimous and effluvescent nature of this legendary blogger, i have little doubt that she would subscribe to the proverb of imitation being the sincerest form of flattery..
(i would also like to clarify that her latest post, on feburary 03, has nothing to do with prawns)
Tribute to Flynn LooToday my buddy iZac and myself, feeling peckish, decided drive around looking for some quaint eats for lunch. iZac reccomended me this place in seletar with great view and delicious food. Feeling incredibly hungry now, a tiny dribble of saliva emerged from the corner of my mouth while i imagined all the tasty stuff settled in my belly.
The place was great! we sat where we could have a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside, which included seletar resevoir sparkling blue in the late afternoon sun and the verdantly grassed expanse of golfing green dotted with beautiful trees and cute little old men in caps pottering about their game of golf.
The weather was perfect. A gentle cool breeze offsetting the warm rays of the sun made it incredibly delightful, totally unlike the usual local conditions. We sat there chattinghappily, soaking in the atmosphere and feeling very relaxed indeed.
My nasi goreng with ikan bilis was fabulous! Lightly spiced fluffy grains of rice with generous portions of juicy succulent meat and fresh ikan bilis, topped off with sprigs of dark green basil for a delightful contrast. Heavenly. Such was the skill of the chef that each mouthful contained just the right porportions of rice, meat, veggie and seasoning to bring me to an orgasmic high KF seetoh and jamie oliver would have never experienced. Simply delectable.
All this gastronomic delight i washed down with generous gulps of 'liquidae chocolatae de heaven' on the rocks. This is a drink i highly reccomend. However i have not encountered anything with this name anywhere else! Having a distinct taste of subtley yet confidently mixed white and dark chocolates, prominent yet not overpowering, this yummy drink really lighted up my tastebuds and left me craving for more. It is also strangely energy boosting.
To top off my afternoon of tummy pleasure, i washed everything down with a glass of purified 'essence of ambrozia' water, which with each sip filled me with a sunny burst of euphoria, yet also ignited a deep and desperate longing for the wild and wonderful faraway lands of lost paradise. HEAVEN!!!
Halfway through our yummy meal, and lounging lazily on our comfortable chairs, 2 members of the local wildlife came to visit! The kingfisher on the right came first and soon the other came to join her. They took turns bathing in the man-made stream and indulging in the sunlight. i absolutely LOVE them..they're so cute with their long thick beaks and short stubby tail! not to mention their brilliantly sea blue feathers.
They frolicked merely 10m from where we were sitting for about 15 minutes before finally flitting effortlessly away for somemore fun elsewhere.
Absolutely beautiful.
All in all a wonderful afternoon. Totally worth every cent of the $4.50 i spent on the meal, which was totally srummilicous, deliciously scrumptious, scrumptiously delicious, and of course scrumptiously scrumptious.
