Special Menu

I am really in gud mood this morning tho i don't hv enuff sleep. Been humming all morning.. I was actually late for work.. :D, but i still make a stop at the mini mart to get the fags and breakie.. and my breakie for today is putu mayam... It's not easy to find putu mayam these days, i was just lucky to bum into the indian putu mayam guy.

When i was little, we always had putu mayam at least once a week. Normally during weekend where i have to wait for the putu mayam uncle by the roadside. Uncle putu mayam always put on white cloths riding his bicycle with a big round 'tong' at the back of his bike. And now i'm starting to remember all sorts of food i used to have when i was little, the places i used to buy them.. natsukashi...

When i was 4, my family moved to a government house in Segamat town. It was a half batu and half kayu house with big compound. 5 minutes walk to the town. I remember there was one karipap stall selling variety kind of karipap with shapes to differentiate the fillings. The round shape = daging, restangular = sayur, triangle = ayam, and normal shape is kentang and sometimes keledek.. Whenever we have guests in the evening, my mom will give some money to buy the puff for tea, for the guests and for us to eat. During that time with RM1 you can get 5 pieces of puff (if i'm not mistaken). Normally mama will give me RM2 to buy them. If she forgot to tell what type of fillings to buy, i will end up buying all flavours that they have with the RM2.. And mama will start babbling when i got back because the shapes were all mixed up and not soo nice to be served. ye la kan, mcm2 shape ada... :D, My answer was "tapi nak rasa semua, lagi pon kan cute ada macam2 shape?"

People now days sells karipap with same shape but different fillings.. The karipap you can alway buy at the makcik nasik lemak tu la... And we always ended up paying for the flavour that we dun want... Sebab dia salah tunjuk.. hmmm instead of inti kentang dapat inti sardin.. :)
