Mum's Cooking : Herbal Noodle Soup

Lately mum and I have been sleeping late. So, having supper is the new trend at home.

Today she made Herbal Noodle Soup. Watching her slurping on those noodles tempted me to join as well. So, I ate two bowls. (Hah, it is no wonder I have gained much weight lately! All I wonder is how to find a soul-mate who doesn't mind me getting fatter.) Heee.

Anyway, here's pictures of tonight's supper.  

1st Round: Herbal Noodle Soup With Chicken Pieces

2nd Round : Herbal Noodle Soup Without Chicken Pieces

Did you notice that I always put cili padi as my garnish? Actually, they're not just for garnishing, I actually enjoy eating them. I'm so obsessed with cili padi to the extent that it is a norm for me to ask the waiter(ess) for extra cili padi whenever I eat out. Well, it's the upbringing I must say. Raised in a family that loves lat (spicy) stuff so much, made munching on cili padi a second nature. And so, I would always love my noodles served with cili padi... so that they not only look hot but more importantly taste hot - just the way I like it! 

Slurrpppzz!! One more bowl please..!

Chinese Economic Rice @ Asia Cafe, SS15, Subang Jaya

For lunch I've always liked to eat chap fan / mixed rice, or some may call it Ecomonic Rice.

Reason is I would prefer rice than noodles if you ask. Also, I enjoy a variety rather than presented with one standard bowl of meal. 

So for the past two years in college, I've always frequented the Pasar SS15 because there, they sell pheng & cheng (cheap & tasty) food. Moreover, you can get a variety of dishes there because the stall operated and leverage on economic of scale.

For today's lunch, I initially wanted to eat at that Pasar SS15 but found out it is closed. I hope that they are closed for renovation only, not permanently located to another place... Otherwise, it would make my pocket suffer. You see, it's difficult to find decent food priced below RM5 near my college. :( 

So since the Pasar is closed, I had to opt to Asia Cafe for Chinese Chapfan.

I went there and looking at the dishes, as usual I picked 2 to 3 types of vegetable. Next, meaty time -  I was first inclined to pick fried chicken but after thinking twice, I picked up just the small pork sausage for I thought it would be cheaper and wanted to remain more economical.

But guess what? The Chinese Man charged me RM6.60. Just for these:

The-Not-So-Economical, Economic Rice

How to remain economical when even the so-called Econmic Rice costs me nearly RM7?!

(I'm only a student, dont charge me that much lah brudder...!) :(

Could be I was overcharged because I selected quite a variety there (Rice + Egg Tofu + Potatoes + Pork Sausage + Long Beans). I actually wonder how much that Chinese Man would have charged me if I replaced the sausage with Fried Chicken. 

One person pointed out that the pork sausage is what jacked up the price. He thinks that and Asia Cafe are getting rather retarded with the prices.

Retarded, yeah. Haha, I can't agree more. Looks like it's time to find another food place to eat other than at Asia Cafe.
