New Discovery!

Nothing much happened today in uni. I just had a lecture from 2-3pm, and then I'm off lol. We went to Tiqah's place to learn how to make 'sambal belacan' for the 'nasi lemak' that Santi's planning to cook for her boyfriend tomorrow. We went to Tesco to get the ingredients and all and before that went to Bayside grills to get Santi's 1kg raw chicken wings for just £2! I was a bit surprised we thought it's gonna be expensive since Shamsa (our housemate - will post a pic of her sometime soon too) said that she got 3kg of chicken breasts for £12 or £15 so definitely wasn't expecting for that! 

On our way to Tiqah's place, we met Tiqah right in town coincidentally since she just finished gym-ing. Then I just found out about the other way to get to Beacon Road (trying to avoid her massively steep hill lol), a really scenic one too hehe. Might use that path from now on, at least during the day or afternoon.

AND we're not sure why but The Natural shop was still open (it was about 8pm, time at which most shops are already closed). So we went in, and we discovered shrimp paste! a.k.a 'belacan'! muahaha I was so happy that we found that there. We can also get tamarind paste there, plus chinese oyster sauce and coconut milk. I got all of those (I'll post the pictures later). Will take a picture of the shop too when I have the time ^^. But yeah technically we can get asian stuffs here so alhamdulillah~ no complaints there . .  except maybe they're a bit expensive? not that  I know the usual price for them somewhere else. Will compare with the prices in Birm.

So yeah then when we get at Tiqah's place, we get to work with the 'sambal'. Too bad I didn't take any pictures but the 'sambal' was A.W.E.S.O.M.E! I haven't tasted that taste for such a long time! haha but the chilli smell was a bit too strong that we got like sneeze fits lol. Anyhoo that's basically what happened today and I still haven't do much work unfortunately *sigh* I need to straighten my motivation up. Ok I can do this! 

I'm watching We got Married YongSeo couple at the moment so after this episode I'll sleep first and wake up early tomorrow to do the diary thing. But I'm glad that we discovered a lot of good stuffs today. Till next time~
