My Favourite Food

Again, this is not your typical grade school essay. This is simply an aimless rambling by a certain blogger who has a lot of free time. Please proceed with utmost prudence.

Hot and spicy food that can cause one's tears to flow like pipe water is my favourite. Call me crazy as you wish, but I really cannot survive even a day without spicy food. (Nah, just kidding, maybe a few days.) I, a Penangite, who grew up in an environment where street delicacies are prevalent, can actually be counted as a street food geek. And most of the foods here taste better when they are partnered with chili sauce, cili padi, or sambal. It's true.

Char Koay Teow, huanjio (chili in Hokkien) jeijei (a lot)!

And Prawn Noodles or Hokkien Mee usually comes with huanjio.

Let's get back to the topic.

Although the dishes stated above are spicy, but they are not in my Top 5 Favourite Food list. Tomyam Mee (Tomyam Noodles) comes the first, Penang Laksa the second, while the third is actually Nasi Kandar (something similar to Curry Rice). What about the fourth and the fifth? Nasi Lemak (which literally means Fat Rice) and Roti Canai (well, if you count the curry that is served together).

Well, some of the Penangites might rebuke that Penang Laksa or some other delicacies should come the first. But the list is personal, I mean, it only applies to me.

But then, I also like fast food like burgers and fries. What about pizzas? I like them too. Pastas? Same.

What about my waistline? *Scratch my head and look at my waist*

Still alright.

Just remember not to eat late at night.
