Calm, Yet Hot

I'm settling down from the croc situation.  It ain't coming back.  But the lack of "western" professionalism is still pissing me off.  Since I'm not in the West, I am just loosening my grip on it as quickly as I can.  Best I can say is I like the way rugby union and ice hockey players respect each other at the end of the season.  Croc hunters did not get the Commonwealth's attitude about sporting behavior.

It's a hot day.  They come in varieties here.  Today is pleasant ambient air with a cooling breeze.  In the shade.  Otherwise it feels like someone has a magnifying glass focusing the sun on one. At least the ambient and breeze make writing this on the pool deck comfortable.  Especially with 36 ounces of iced mango tea.  That won't last long.

Let's unspool the film...

Char Kway Teow from Bobby 99's.

Skipped the prawns, doubled the sausage, cooked with Sambal.

Spicy!  Mrs. Bobby brought peppers over which did not get used.

Beef Biryani, Indonesian style.
I wanted Nasi Lemak for breakfast, they don't have it.  I promised to return for dinner.
Excellent.

Nasi Lemak (rated as π/10)

Not enough Lemak. No anchovies.

Overcooked egg (yolk had the grey/green edge) 

And....

I asked for beef rendang.  She gave me beef hitam; no "beef"rendang on the menu when I checked later.

I would have liked chicken rendang then (on the menu).

Hitam is treacly sweet and not fall apart tender.
