Food, Glorious Food

I fancy Chinese.

Maybe I should rephrase that. 

I fancy eating Chinese food tonight and I head out towards Petaling Jaya and off the beaten track a bit towards Seksyen 22 (SS22), to a place called Restoran Ahwa, which is supposedly famous for lovely hokkien mee. I also have some steamed stingray, as it came recommended, and a Penang pancake. 

Lily

I was going to have some green tea, but then spotted Heineken - so had a huge bottle of that instead, much to the delight of the beer waitress, Lily (I don’t expect she was called that, but when she laughed (a lot) she looked like Pam Ann’s Lily character). She was great, actually, very chatty and friendly – and kept coming over to talk gibberish to me whilst she topped up my glass. At one point, she leaned in towards me and whispered, “I bored. No one drink beer here. You first customer for long time. Tee hee hee. You wan more beer?”

Alas no

Much as I could have had more of the food, I wanted to try another place that had been recommended for deserts which was nearby (KTZ Food in SS22). It looked a bit like a fast food burger place, but just sold deserts – so I had three: a mango pearl ice desert (sago), a hot peanut blancmange and a lychee and macadamia soup. The mango and lychee deserts were lovely – unusual, but lovely – but I would happily never have hot peanut blancmange again.

The nice thing about going to the gym is that I am able to go out and enjoy going to recommended places for certain bits of food and not feel too guilty...
