The BFF found a break in her crazy travel schedule, and after a whole afternoon of revising for her Spanish exam, she came over for dinner and carried out her Godma duties to Choya. We didn't cook. Had a busy day and opted to do take-out. There're plenty of choices for food delivery services. We could simply schedule it for 6.45pm.
We tapau-ed food from Golden Mile Tower. The man had a craving for fried rice, and he specifically wanted the version from King of Fried Rice at the basement of Golden Mile Tower. Hahaha. He zoomed there at 5.15pm; he said it was more like 'king of long queues'. We usually ignore its mala and tom yum fried rice, and XO fried rice. Just go for the simplest egg version. That's the best. Egg fried rice and pork chop. A simple dish that is excellently cooked. Hit a spot for me that night. Honestly, that pork chop was fantastic.
Since we were three persons for dinner, and the BFF doesn't mind carbs at all, the man went next door to Leng Saap เล้งแซ่บ @ Rot Fai Market to get more food. He returned with single portions of som tam, spicy pork rib soup, prawn cakes and sautéed kangkong. All were pretty decent! The som tam was okay, not as horrible as I had expected. That prawn cake was thick and delicious! Went pretty well with fried rice.
I raised an eyebrow at the spicy pork rib soup. (ต้มเล้งหรือต้มแซ่บกระดูกหมู, or Chinese-Thai style 'tom saab leng'.) One portion meant for two persons came in two giant plastic bags- one held soup and the other held parts of the meat and spine. I didn't have bowls big enough for them. Had to put them in two cooking pots. It could feed four people! The crazy amount of coriander was sifted out when we ladled out the soup into smaller bowls. The spicy pork rib soup was good, but I feel that at this 'normal spicy', it was still too spicy. I love spices, and I love me a spicy clear tom yum soup, but for pork rib soup, this is just weird. I say this because the spice kills the taste of every other food, the good soup base, and my wine. Next time, I want it to have MINIMUM spices in this soup. Maybe the 'mild', or something lighter even.
The BFF rolled her eyes to high heaven when we put on 'Dolor y Gloria' (2019). Eh, since she doesn't have time to immerse herself in Spain for two weeks, we should encourage her to listen to more Spanish by way of... well, watching films. Netflix and Hulu FTW. Hahaha. Vamos chicos and vamanos aren't quite the same thing. Estudiar mucho, BFF. Esa es una buena chica!
