It’s been long since I approached myself to such ambrosial scent, the rich taste flowing across my stagnant taste buds. Being a Malaysian but yet hardly grasp a spoonful of authentic Malay cuisine, hence a million thanks Areena and her housemates for making an effort for having an Open House cum Raya celebration at their new apartment.
We had curry, rendang, ‘lontong’ [my favourite among all the scrumptious food which I intended to steal the recipe from Areena], nasi himpit [which I assumed that it was chunks of ketupat] and some other Malay dishes that I embarrassingly failed to know.
On the contrary, it was the best time to gather all 2nd year batch mates together under this humble roof as we welcome another hectic year. I’m pleased to proclaim that it is really fuming the spirit and essence of ‘1Malaysia’. Pretty interesting when we all were walking in traditional Malay costumes along Russian streets with all the Russians staring at us, all we lack is a Malaysian flag.
Thumbs up for Dennis & I wearing our traditional Malay costumes, was about to get ‘sampin’ from Malaysia but apparently I have no idea how to wear it. Maybe next year.
