Malaysia Feast at Home

Oooooohhh!!.believe me,this is really good with Chinese cruller and pineapple.I re-fried 'yau tiue" make is crunchy and crispy.I been eating rojak for 2 days dinner.If you want my recipe for the sauce just click here rojak .I realised that the sauce sitting in the fridge longer,it's taste better and thicker.



My 2 box of nasi kunyit with sambal ikan bilis..yummy!!I request the aunty to remove cucumber ,afraid it will get spoil while sitting in my van under the sun.

Mishu wonder what is this hard ,brown piece attach to yellow slimy stuff??..Can I eat this mommy??..I give her another piece but she run away from her chair.Just one is enough..Atleast she eat some today.When we go back to Malaysia,hope she have no problem adjusting to the food and weather.


Look at her 'licking fingers good"!!,Ummmmhhh....so good..this Monthong durian is quite sweet.


Mishu trying to figure out why this fruit have thread??.




Mishu eating one piece of Durian with fork..Just one piece at one time!!

I was at Flushing,Queens last two days ago for my hair cut.I prefer to get my hair cut by Chinese hairdresser than American hairdresser.I guess American hairdresser don't know how to style or cut Chinese straight hair.Of course, Mishu tagged along with me.Elliot prefer to stay at home as usual.And I can take my own sweet time shopping,eating and hanging around in Flushing.
We had lunch at Malaysia Restaurant at 40th rd, after I get my hair cut.Luckily I found a nice parking spot in front of Malaysia Restaurant.I realised the city change this location to allowed parking.I guess no many people really read what the sign posted.I reread again and again all the sign posted.It's very misleading,no wonder alot of people afraid to park there.
I like this Malaysia Restaurant,the wait staffs are friendly beside their foods , very good and authentic.I had my usual dish,cockles "CKT" extra spicy and Mishu had Cantonese Fried Chow Fun.On the same block there is another Malaysia Restaurant,called Curry Leave.Curry Leave open at 6.00 am daily.This store have some special breakfast menu.Beside selling kuih muih ,they do have ready make nasi lemak,nasi kunyit,curry laksa,clear noodles soup and etc..At noon,they have ready serve mixed rice Malaysia style in chafing dish.I think ,for 3 dish and a soup it cost $4.50 or less than $5.00.If you prefer to order special dish,they do have Al la cart menu too.Their breakfast curry mee and al la cart curry mee in menu is quite different.Anyway,I was at there around 4.00 pm and they left few box of nasi kunyit with sambal ikan bilis.The aunty,offer me to take 3 boxes but I said, no I can't finish it.She said" regular price $2.50,you take all,just $1.00 each.Then she offer her fried keropok udang,$0.85 each ,take 3 pcs for $2.00!!..After keropok undang,she offer her fried kuih bingka.She said the items left from breakfast,so need to get ride of it. I said,no aunty,I can't finish all by myself.I only wanna 2 box of nasi kunyit.I quickly paid her and push Mishu's stroller out of the store before she offer another item to me.
I went to shop for Mishu's Disney Chinese DVD.A friend called me,told me that in Flushing Mall have a Malaysia Food speciality store.Yes,that right,it's a small store selling mostly Malaysia snack and grocery but not much variety.I found the price is so so not so great compare with supermarket.It's understanable because they don't have that kind of volume .Anyway,I shop in Hong Kong supermarket for cruller and I found durian on sale!!.Beside Durian,there's few items on sale too.I buy until Mishu's stroller can't handle the weight,then we walk back to my van.
Again after loaded my grocery in my van,we take off to "Fei Dar Bakery" buy some Chinese coffee and bakery.I saw a friend while I shop for seafood in another supermarket.We chat for a while,exchange phone numbers.I keep looking for lemongrass but not one supermarket sell it.Wonder why?.Maybe Lemongrass have season too or the shipping not arrive yet?.Quite disappointed.
Wow! I look at my watch and it's almost 8.00 pm..Time flies so fast without realise it.I better get ready to hit home.At the same time,Elliot called again,asking where are we now.Or I lost my direction to go home?...Well,I enjoy my outing with Mishu and didn't notice time flies so fast..OK time to head home..Arrived home at 9.00 p.m.Mishu is so tired and went to bed.
Look at what we eat this 2 days..I found chinese "yauh char kwai",so rojak is complete with pineapple and cruller!! Viola!!.It's so delicious!!.Then I eat my Nasi Kunyit for 2 days lunch.And today we eat Durian.Elliot point at my durian and ask,it's that stuff you called Durian,spiky King of the Fruit from Travel Channel?.He didn't complaint and smile at my durian.He surprised, I said Mishu eat it too.Well, I guess he used my durian smell..Practise make perfect !! ahhaa!!
I called all of this" Malaysia Feast"!!.Fruit Rojak,Nasi Kunyit and Durian!!;

You are eating all my fav food. Nasi kunyit with sambal, rojak and durian. We bought a durian from Philly when Zue came and it was bad. Smell masam already and have to throw it away :( :( I gave up buying durian here and wait till I go home to eat it.

beachlover,
Nasi kunyit $1.00 a pack.. I sapu all ooooo. Not much of kuih bingka... Keropok udang - will get 10 at least...

Tumpang lalu beachlover.

Gert,
Buy the frozen one lah... Those durian packed in plastic boxes..
There are good... I still have 2 boxes in my freezer... Kena tunggu the right time to eat - when Robert not home or maybe curi2 eat outside.

Gert...don't buy the Durian with lubang or slightly open.I always make sure the durian don't have opening bcoz when we defrost at room temp,it can be masam.Next time,buy Monthong one.Did you have the chance to make the rojak?.try it with 'yau tiue" very very gud!!

Cat cat..ahhaaa!!..bila nak melawat NYC??.you also can eat all you wanna!!..food is reasonable cheap here in Chinatown.
