I had chinese food at the restaurant, Tai Pan, which is literally across the place I'm staying. I have been staying at this place for almost a year and I been there only once; but my flatmate never been there at all.
We had all vegetarian food today because Pink Lady is vegetarian. LOL
Ma Po to fu. I think it is called bean curd with chilli sauce and sth sth. I don't really remember. LOL
We decided we need noodles also. Otherwise the food wont fill us up. So, we ordered crispy noodles. And, guess what, this plain crispy noodles with nothing in it, costs us £5++!!
We mixed the bean curd dish with the noodles.
We also ordered some dim sum.
Pink Lady loves this. So, we have to order this every time. LOL.
We also ordered lotus bun and this crystal dumpling thingy.
Finally, my favourite one - black sesame balls covered with peanuts and coconut! We didn't expect it to be like this. We thought it is the normal sesame ball we used to have. I was very reluctant to have it when I saw my friend had it. It has this black filling. I generally do not like food in black colour. It is black sesame after all. I don't know why is it that i never expect it to be black filling.
But, it turned out to be the best of the meal.
We had these when we went to dim sum yesterday. They are not the best, but I haven't have them for really long.
I noticed western people usually don't eat these. hhahah.. I went with two chinese girls. That's why you can see these on the table. I never order them when I went out with my friends from Western countries. I don't want to freak them out.
Can you guess what are these? Leave if you don't want to know what they are. Otherwise, scroll down if you don't know. :)
