jolly bean

in the shop again..
but fully satisfied from a great and healthy lunch.

must be from abof you say, nope they're busy during this time..
oh, one of the many food courts. na, too crowded..
surprise! it's food from home.

this hols saw a dismal budget, coupled with the fact of living alone soon.. decided to fix lunch everyday.
was initially apprehensive, since my repertoire was mainly bread.
however, wow actually enjoy home-cooked food more.
not that it tastes better, obviously not right.. but it's just more wholesome = )

today's lunch was carrefour provencal crepes, roti prata with tomato and sprinkling of cheese, another with honey coated bananas, and get this, multi-grain organic pau (haha it really tastes nice)

best of all.. the prata was ghee-less and just cooked (ie no burnt bits).. the fruits were juicy and fresh! and premium aussie honey.. mm..

among others tried (so i won't forget):
a) cha soba with ponzu/ mentaiko seaweed
b) roti prata (frozen) with anything eg. pork floss and honey, sausage, pineapple or any other fruit
c) fried bee hoon with chye sim and sea petal
d) miso instant noodles
e) oats-coated anything: fish, chicken, bananas or other fruit
f) pizza with just avocado, just pineapple, just tomatoes..
g) toasted baguette with herb-infused olive oil topped with garlic

of course, if all else fails, a fruit salad plus honey dressing and yoghurt!

taking george's advice.. and realising that the quality of ingredients makes a huge difference. eg tierney's sausages, carrefour vegetarian pizzas, beechworth honey (fr oz.. can't find it here oh dear.. but they have great recipes on website) and abof bread hurhur.. no offense but local producers tend to substitute freshness with chemicals for the lack of our ingredients.

we discovered a really nice organic eatery in fortune centre 2nd floor.. can't rem the name.. who would have thought it tastes nicer than normal food? met an old friend there too, who despite the new specs, recognised me after, oh my, 10 years = )

hm.. shall move on to pasta and fish next.. feeling inspired by jes who wakes up early to prep lunch everyday.. haha why not? = )
