December 31 Happy New YearDecember 29 16-0 PatriotsThe Patriots played the Giants today in their last game of the season. They won 38-35 becoming the 1st team since the 1972 Dolphins to go undefeated. FYI, back then, there were only 14 games in the regular season. I watched the game on my Slingbox here in Singapore (kick off was 9am) trying hard to recreate the good old American atmosphere I miss so much. I had fried chicken, some sort of Japanese crackers (they are fat free), Cherry tomatoes (needed something organic), and beer. Some might say 9am is a litter early for beer.... but hey, like I always say, it is 12 o'clock somewhere.
This is what sling box looks like on my 40'' Samsung TV. It looks pretty good and the sound comes out of the TV. I can't blow it up full screen tho because the picture gets too grainy. This is after the go ahead score When it was offical: First undefeated team since the Dolphins Tom gets the post game interview
Salsa in MalaysiaCan you believe this picture was taken in Malaysia at the Carrefour? Looks like back home
December 24 Coconut Jelly DesertSaw the fruit stand across the street selling these and decided to give it a try. Pretty good on a hot day.
December 21 Saturday surfing tripI stop and get breakfast from these ladies on my way to surf in Malaysia just about every weekend... sometimes more than once. Today's fare was curry puffs and this rice w/egg in a banana leaf. Lunch on the way home. i didn't do a good job selecting... everything tasted the same. 12 O'clcok: Chicken. 5 O'clock: Cuttle Fish. 9 O'clock: Potato December 18 Shenzhen Lunch & WalmartI had peper beef chop. Celia (my broker) had fried rice, and our driver had beef noodle.
I lived in China for almost 3 years and never saw a Walmart... Monday I finally did. Here is what the sign looks like from a car.
December 15 叉燒飯No trip to Hong Kong would be complete with out this staple. Consumed while I prepared for my Monday meetings. 18 HKD!
December 14 獅子山 Lion MtnAfter 5 months in Singapore... I finally got to hike up a mtn again. The hike itself was great but the smog ruined any view I might have enjoyed from the top.
I never knew there were monkies in Hong Kong... yet here they are. Not as friendly as the ones in Malaysia.
Hong Kong HotelI decided to stay at a hotel this time in Hong Kong rather than over stay my welcome at my friend's place(s). This business hotel is smart and reasonable on Wanchai Road. Check out the bathroom.
Hong Kong: The Best 魚香茄子! (Spicy Eggplant)Back in Hong Kong or Benny Chan's wedding... Found this little restaurant around the corner from my friends house with the best 魚香茄子 ever.
December 09 Sunday Night DinnerMalaysian (really Chinese) Chincken & Mushroom Soup. BBQ'd Chix on the side.
December 08 Singapore Breakfast: Kaya Toast & CerealKaya toast is one of those interesting Singapore/Malaysia things. It is basically coconut jam (with some egg and butter thrown in). Pretty tasty. I bought this jar in Malaysia for 1.5RM. Saturday Night DinnerFirst time I have made dinner since getting back from the US. Sweet & Sour Shrimp & Malaysian Beef Stew (not cury)
Apple Dumplings in SingaporeI brought 18 of these back to Singapore with me. All in all.. they made the 18 hour flight better than I did! Here they are:
