food

What is so many people talking about popiah here..... man.... I missed those..... a little bit of bengkuang (what do you called that in other language?) , bean sprouts, eggs and that sweet sauce.... blachan..... I have 2 bottles of those powder and I still can't finish those... How do you use that hong? I usually has it with either okra, asparagus, or watercress.
Why do I always read all things about food during this wee hour....

How is the fellow asian lits doing? Hope SARS is not affecting too much of your lives.
 
Hi erc,

Sounds like you're homesice for peranakan cooking. What is watercress? Does it look like dao miao?

I'm hungry too--it would be nice if someone else would cook for me. :)
 
If I remember, watercress is called kangkung in Malay... called eng chai in hokkien or kong xing chai in taiwanese...
the dish I like is called kangkung balachan..... or some was called Malay feng guang (or Malay scenery)

I have no problem to cook, as long as someone would clean up the mess afterwards :)

I absolutely adore kangkung with balachan... and I am not a big veggie eater... I can eat platefuls of it...

watercress is what they translate as, but it certainly is not western watercress....
 
SARS update

Hong Kong

A total of 1008 patients have recovered from atypical pneumonia and have been discharged from public hospitals. Of them, 24 were discharged today. There are now 445 patients in hospital, of whom 91 are recovering patients who are in convalescence and preparation for discharge.

News from my brother who's a doctor in HK:

The likelihood of dying from SARS in a given area has been shown to depend on the profile of the cases, including the age group most affected and the presence of underlying disease. Based on data received by WHO to date, the case fatality ratio is estimated to be less than 1% in persons aged 24 years or younger, 6% in persons aged 25 to 44 years, 15% in persons aged 45 to 64 years, and greater than 50% in persons aged 65 years and older.

Strangely SARS doesn't seem to affect children at all.

MM: how can you encourage AFM to reveal his magnifent torso when you can't even show my your elbow :mad:


I second this.....we should make posting a pic a pre-requisite for membership so we can make sure that everyone is Asian. ;)
Such a flattering description for my rather uninspiring frame as well :D

Except for gwailos, who needs to do special duties to be a member :D

yeah, tell me about it! come oooon boobies! nono not you tummy! we must, we must, we must increase our bust!
hahahahaha

I like AFM's movement: get nekkid! so far i think i've seen MM's hand and her left eye... the ultimate tease! anyways, that's the joy if digital photography, is that you can hide or crop what you don't like and delete those pics that might alarm greenpeace activists into protesting against beached whales on the internet.
(guess who gained 20 pounds this year and still gets nekkid for camera?)

off to the gym... maybe i should make one of those hats with the fishing rods on the top so that i can suspend a lumpia from it in front of me to run towards. ahahhahahaha... hmm... new project!
