Stall Hopping
Dinner last night was a many splendid thing. We started off with wan tan noodles with chicken wings and sting ray. That was accompanied with 2 glasses of drink each (sour plum and lime is yummy, especially when you're sitting by the road side in great levels of humidity). Following that, to satisfy the
durain hankering we had durians after. 2 durians from a stall, and a desire to see if the next stall had better got us taking 5 steps down to another table, another stall and some more, but this time, horribly substandard durians. The saving grace, some Mangosteen as well. B decided to protect his system from the great abuses that we were infliciting on our bodies by buying a cup of herbal tea which I suspect, would ward off all "heatiness" or really just exacerbate the situation and have him eating porridge the rest of today.
Dinner actually should have ended there but didn't. While I went in search of Iced Lemon Tea at KFC, the two boys were toying with buying a BARREL of chicken from KFC (that's bigger than a bucket by the way). Thank goodness their good sense and many evil stares from us, the significant others, they decided against it and settled for cake from
Secret Recipe. The Chocolate Banana cake is quite awesome and so was the chocolate mud cake which sank right to the bottom of currently bottomless pits that are our tummies.
I would like to say that dinner did indeed end there, but it didn't. We had a bacio gelato cone after that, some alcoholic sodas and a big bag of potato chips to round off the night.
All that was after a heavy steamboat lunch yesterday and we've started the eating this morning with the hotel breakfast. Right now, we're trying to figure out lunch and dinner will once again be a many stall event. :)
