Queen of Kitchen Disasters

As long as I have cooked and stayed in this place, I’ve never ever deep fry anything. I’m worry about the oil splashing out, I’m worried about all the cooking fumes, but I gave in to my craving today and did it for the first time - deep frying by myself!

I was craving for fish fingers - you know that Bird’s Eye thingy … think of it being crispy and hot and eaten with a sprinkle of lemon juice *sigh* I finally cave in and I made it for lunch, and dinner too. In between I fried some potato slices and ate those with salt, pepper and lemon juice (my take on vinegar and salt ;P). Yes I’m still burping out my lunch and I’m wondering what I can drink to help flush out all that oil in me! I did blot with the kitchen towel as much as possible but deep fried stuff, how much oil can you really remove anyway?

Anyway, I fnished all 16 of them (I shared with hubby) and it’s time to get more =) While being splashed with hot oil is not fun (i had a few splatter on my face =~{) but it’s still ok, I can live with it =) Just have another excuse to buy more kitchen gadget’s that’s it *rofl*

OK, Friday I did get to eat Tempura but not with the sweet sauce. They only serve tempura tendon during lunch time *roll eyes* I went to this small Japanese restaurant at Ginza Plaza, next to the Fish Mart (where i get my fresh salmon for sashimi and other niche jap stuff) and well, ok, the stuff were OK generally but kinda letdown? Somehow I expected better from them since they sell such good salmon sashimi!

I guess we just have to make a trip to Kyoto one day and find that same restaurant and EAT to my heart’s content. Or maybe next saturday I can bug hubby to bring me to Far East Plaza for a meal at Nanbetai …

Didi I mention that my fav Turkish restaurant at Rail Mall has gone missing? It’s been replaced with a fish & chip shop wehich i have no interest in and I have no idea where to get my lahmacun and hummus with pide now *cry*

I am still craving for my tempura tendon and I was sharing it with my gf over MSN.

Her response? Called up a Japanese restaurant and ordered:

california roll, tempura, and ika salad and some fried fish roll with seaweed

Her hubby asked for an extra side order of soft shelled crab.

Problem is, once we start on food, the craving just grows stronger, like a ever lingering hunger at the back of the mind.

And I hadn’t even gotten my confirmation that I will be eating my tempura tendon tonight *sigh* Some people are sooooooooooooo lucky ….
