Peranakan Delight!

It's always back-to-the roots Nonya food on Sundays. Luckily we still have family who could cook really well. Pity we don't particularly have an inclination to learn it. Maybe in future. For now, we're happy to slurp them up and wash the dishes after.

Another lunch, another fantastic meal. Loads of curries and carbs. I simply can't resist eating steamed white rice slathered with curry. As much as I would like to pop a carb-stopper, the wiser option would be to swim it off later, or double-up the exercise the next day.


So much effort goes into preparing the weekly lunch for everyone. Much appreciated though. Didn't think much of heading home for meals when we were kids. But by now, we know how much work that takes and eagerly look forward to every meal.

Cannot emphasize on how awesome buah keluak is. Always look forward to the home cooked ones because they wouldn't be mixed in with minced meat. The meat would be the accompanying ayam or something in the pot. The insides of the nuts would be all that black-bitter-goodness. YUMMY. I love the bitter, pungent ones!
