I hadn't gone for a good mamak session for the longest time so guess what I did when faced with the easy availability of a plate of delicious steaming hot Maggi Goreng?
Yup.
You're right: My willpower totally caved in and I ordered it:
Mmmmm....
After banning it off my food list (and succeeding) for almost a year, I'd forgotten how good it tastes - The firm texture of the noodles, coated with a generous layer of oil and fragrant spices with smatterings of egg and veggies....
(Oooh, and the optional dash of lime on top adds that extra zing)
That night, I quickly cleaned off the entire plate (all by myself some more *sigh*).... and washed it down with a glass of kopi ais kurang kurang manis.
I don't even want to think how many calories were that meal! I will just have to be more careful in future when faced with such temptation.....
*lol*
:D
I have been naughty and I know it!,

Ah well. Food, food, glorious food! Hard to say no sometimes.

ReplyDeleteHaha... very true.
(Especially true for me since I am so greedy)
Next time I am faced with the question: "Makan apa?" from the friendly mamak waiter, I have to learn how to say: "Tak mau makan! Teh O Ais Limau kurang manis only, thank you...."
:)
There is just no stopping once you sit down at a mamak stall
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely nothing can stop you at that time
:)
I miss maggi goreng a lot too

ReplyDeleteMy greedy tummy says: "Yes, yes, YES!"... but the problem is that my waistline yells: "No, you fool, NO!" at the same time.
Haha...
Unfortunately, more often than not I will submit the the whims of my appetite and ignore common sense.

Hey, if you miss Maggi Goreng a lot then go out and have a plate! Why deny yourself the little pleasures in life?
;)
(I'm not exactly a good influence, am I?)
That's nothing. What is really a sin? Finishing a whole rice pot of chicken rice all at once when it is meant for 2 meals!!!
ReplyDeleteBut hey, the cook in me is flattered by my appetite. Does that mean my culinary skill has improved to 'unresistible' level? Hahaha
to anonymous:
ReplyDeleteHaha...
Ok ok - so eating what is effectively 2 meals at one time is more sinful, but at least it was filled with nutritious home-cooked goodness...
Right?
