Burger Nanas from Bishan

We saw an article in paper on this new ang moh food stall in Bishan. So last time we were in that area we decided to try it. Crazy Ang Moh was written on the stall sign next to image of kangaroo wearing red boxing gloves. Yes, it belongs to Oz guys. My buddy told me that after featured in paper, the queue doubled. Well, it better be good.
We ordered the special: crazy burger. What makes it special is on top of beef patty, fried egg, cheese, and lettuce, they put beetroot and pineapple. And it comes with tips from the ang moh owner (who supposed to be crazy): to get the best taste, squash the burger stack then bite it all. Which we did. Tough and messy but manageable. Taste wise: good, no complain. Pineapple and beetroot did provide different flavor. Eat while the patty and egg are still hot. The only minus point is the bread. It just plain ordinary burger bread.
It was featured again in today's paper. They compare it with another ang moh's food stall: Botak Jones. For me... (since last time we ate at Botak Jones was months ago) I find no diff... probably need to visit both in the same day. But my buddy Panda seemed to prefer this one.

A dark week for some...

See these pics? What do they have in common? Bingo! Three big blow... if you're an English (or English-fan). Three big sport events ended with defeat.

Starting with a well deserved lost in the hand of Russia in mid week. Then Boks boxed the Red Rose from making a back-to-back world champ on Saturday, not even prince's cheer helped them to escape defeat. Then on Sunday Iceman delivered the final blow by taking the world title from the grasp of Brit's new golden boy.

Well, dark cloud did hang low for some. But not for me. For me it was an amazing week!

Mudik Membawa Nikmat

Seperti halnya pepatah 'sambil menyelam, 2-3 pulau terlewati' atau 'air beriak, lain lubuk lain ikannya', 'mudik membawa nikmat' adalah pepatah yang jelas bisa disangkal keabsahannya. Tapi bedanya dengan 2 yang pertama, yang terakhir tak bisa dipungkiri kebenarannya.

Mudik pasti membawa nikmat. Siapapun orangnya, dimanapun sarang mudiknya. Sekalipun perjalanan mudiknya sendiri bisa membawa derita dan nestapa, tapi sesudah mencapai tujuan niscaya hanya nikmat yang didulang. Betapa tidak! Begitu berjumpa dengan kerabat, handai taulan, mantan kecengan atau abang bakso langanan pasti segala penat dan cemas takut dicopet raib. Apalagi ditambah sambutan meriah dari lauk idaman di atas meja makan!

Begitupula dengan lebaran tahun ini. Mudik membawa nikmat. Kali ini tanpa derita nestapa perjalanan. Kenapa? Soalnya bukan saya yang mudik. Tapi tetap saya mendapat nikmat. Nikmatnya berupa lonjoran2 lumpia (atau menurut kotaknya: lunpia) semarang lengkap dengan saos ingus, acar, rawit dan bawang muda. Hihihi!

nb: makasih sedalam2nya buat teman saya yang telah mudik dan membawa nikmat.
