the nasi lemak that always goes wrong

the canteen in my workplace sells nasi lemak and other varieties of delicacies every morning. before this, i seldom buy any breakfast from the canteen and just do away with the free snacks provided for employees. save money ma. however, recently, i've been eating nasi lemak and fried noodles a lot. i know these are very unhealthy food but temptation is really hard to resist at times.

thus, this morning i indulged in a packet of nasi lemak. the taste is always not consistent, sometimes the rice being too soggy; the sambal being too spicy until you can't feel the nasi lemak taste at all except the feeling that your tongue is burning with the spicyness; not enough santan being used and all other things that can go wrong with cooking a simple nasi lemak. i wonder if the cook is aware of her variety taste of nasi lemak - daily-!!!

today's nasi lemak is ... tasteless!!! when the taste is not right, i always feel cheated for paying rm1 for something that is not up to my expectation. it's like paying rm1 for a bowl of white rice with some miserable amount of ikan bilis and a miserable tiny piece of egg. proabably they cut an egg into 12 pieces!!! nevertheless, sometimes it does feel good, with everything just right. despite all these inconsistencies, i still crave for it every now & then. i guess i have a very easy tastebud.

i'm too full to think about lunch now. probably will have something light during lunch, like noodles. i wonder what kind of noodles do they sell today.

it's only tuesday. arrggghhh!!! *start counting down to weekends*...

as you can see, i'm not in the mood of working today. i can't remember when was the last time i had the mood to work. heheheee....
