I mean corn as the fresh vegetable/fruit, whatever you categorise it under and not the Chacos or Doritos Corn Chips.

In fact corn is one of my favourite snacks, being healthier and also tasty. It contains high traces of Vitamin B, minerals and also is "good for your butt-hole". You will spend less time in the toilet damaging your butt-hole.

You can get them anywhere I suppose, from raw ones to cooked ones.

So are you thinking of what snack to eat, how long has it been since you ate this wonderful treat? So go now and grab yourself some corn!

Hello again diners!

Today I just went to KFC to try out the Cheezy Chikaroni ($2.50 with drink) and the new Fiery Crunch Chicken.

We ordered a Mini Bucket and the Cheezy Chikaroni, and we actually is just me and my bro lol.
The Fiery Crunch is quite nice with a tangy taste of lime and herbs but I was disappointed when it wasn't spicy. They said it was very spicy so as a spicy fanatic, of course I was excited. But I guess they will need to put more chilli to satiate my tongue.

However, the best around mashed potato and Cheezy Wedges put me back in the mood. I just love these. Anyone who knows how to make them, please let me know!

The Chicken Chikaroni was just alright, just macaroni with cheddar cheese.

Diners!

I happened to come across something which was rather interesting, An EDIBLE CHARCOAL!

Or rather it's just a black bread. They call it Bamboo Charcoal Bread.
Said it's infused with moso bamboo and sunflower seeds, which can prevent cancer.
No idea how true it is and also mention that it originated from Japan and Korea.

As for the taste, do not worry, taste just like normal bread, but maybe a little fragrant and soft. Or maybe the black colour is affecting my senses. Anyway, it's $2 per packet, rather expensive and you can get them at LoF Bakery just opposite Hua Ho Serusop.

Cheers!

Finally, an update! You must have been very hungry!

Today, I happen to eat at TT Blues Cafe, just at the end of the Yong Siong Hai building in Gadong. To be exact, the building where the communist shop (Unitek) is located.

They are having a 50% OFF on all items on the menu for sometime now so definitely if you're broke you can head over here. They have a variety of choices, but a lot of the western dishes when I ordered, it was out of stock!

So i just tried their Asian dishes - Buttermilk Dry Chicken, Dry Pepper Prawns and Sweet and Sour Fish. These were $8 each but after 50%, its $4. The taste is just alright, well I mean, have you eaten these dishes where they taste much different?

The dishes are really worth it due to the prices, they taste the same at other places anyways but the prawns are just too small, so mayb you would want to avoid their prawns though last time when I ate here, it was ok.

Another I would recommend would probably be their Pearl Milk Tea. After the promotion, its $1.50, cheap? So they must have cut the portion, yeah? In fact no, its nice in portion and also the taste is good, almost like the one in Cheezbox.

So why not try and chill out here!

Cheetos' Cheddar Jalapeno, costing at an exaggerating price of $4.30 per pack, I will still buy it when my wallet gets heavier. Nothing much really to say, thick voluptuous cheddar cheese, sprinkled with appealing jalapeno on beautiful crunchy curls. Will just work out after finishing the pack myself. Try it!

Any horny Diners out there with a different intepretation?

Today's dish will be Ayam Penyet, loosely translated as flat chicken, a famous local dish which you can almost get it anywhere in Brunei but today I will be introducing one that I like the most. Maybe you've tried, but you can still grab it again.

This one is from Pondok Sari Wangi, located inside Food Zone in Gadong Properties. This version is only available at this branch and not at other of their branches, don't ask me why.

Costs $4, what's so special about this Ayam Penyet. Let's start with the chicken first. The flat chicken is made so with the aim of allowing the marination to seep into every strand of the flesh and loosen the bones so you won't need to dirty your hands to eat it. They have done this very well.

The chicken although fried, is not hard at all in its texture. Instead, nice beautiful texture, just like that of grilled but retaining tantalising flavours and taste within the skin and flesh, just so tasty. There must be a secret to it. Combined with their own sambal sauce, just wonderful.

The sambal sauce has an authentic taste to it, and less oil or maybe virtually no oil. However, the spiciness level is for those with a high willpower. Its quite an accomplishment to be able to finish the sambal, which I did (self-promoting), anyone up to the challenge?

So go and burn your tongues!

Yet another hungry day? Lucky you because today, I will introduce you another one of my favourite restaurants. Do not be fooled by its looks for you will be thankful you came to savour their wonderful dishes.

This little low-profile kitchen which serves Thai food goes by the name Nursyuhaidah Restaurant and Catering. It is located at the same block as Excapade Sushi Serusop branch. Not only the food is great but also it is very economical, just unbelievable.

There are a variety of dishes here but I will be recommending 4 dishes which I ordered today, which will surely satisfy your taste buds. And each dish cost $5 and rice, 50 cents per plate.

The first is the Chicken Cashew Nut. Boneless chicken and crunchy cashew nuts, stir fried with onion, dried chillies, a variety of herbs and spices which i couldn't figure out and is one of my nephew's favourites. You will never find the same aroma and taste elsewhere, trust me.

The next on the line is the Curry Chicken, the authentic Thai thick creamy red curry blended with herbs and spices. Taste just like the red curry in other Thai restaurants but the curry is a little thicker in consistency and spiciness is just ok.

The Pandan Chicken, ohh, luscious minced and marinated chicken wrapped in pandan leaves and fried to perfection. Dip it in the sweet chilli sauce, the combination is very appetising. The fragrance and sweetness is just so pleasant. A lot better than the ones I ate in other Thai restos.

Coming up next is the Fried Seafood Basilles. Squids and prawns, stir fried with chopped long beans, onions, chillies and basil leaves and their special sauce, just mesmerising. The taste is really unique and fragrant, you will never taste it elsewhere. The food must have been cooked over very high heat, in order to seal so much flavours in the dishes. However, don't mistaken the long beans with the chillies.

All these dishes were served to me within 5 minutes upon order and the restaurant was half-filled at that time. A testament to the high heat that was used to cook the dishes.

Drooling? So go and have a feast, there's more than just girls in Thailand!

My fellow Diners! Hungry again? Have you tried the dishes from Chapter 1?

Tonight I happen to eat something which is rather nice that I would like to share it with you.

It's called the "Portuguese Egg Tart". It's not like your normal everyday egg tart, it's Portuguese!! (huh??) but made in Brunei...

The crust is similar to that of a croissant, not too dry, yet not too soft, retaining the chewy texture and the crispiness. How about the custard? This is their selling point. Smooth creamy cheese blended with flavourful egg custard and finished off with a topping of cheese and melted butter and yolks.

Together, the combination is just wonderful... as you bite through it, the chewy texture of the crust just complements the gentle and smooth cheese custard.

Where can you find this gentle egg general? Top Bake, at 70cents each and if you buy after 7pm, its BUY 1 FREE 1 (For those that can't count, 35cents each)... This bakery store is just located behind Hua Ho Serusop.

So go and lick those eggs!

Finally, the first post!

Today, I will be introducing one of my favourite restaurants, Seri JS Restaurant or also known as Singapore Big Prawn House. This restaurant used to be located behind Supa Save Gadong when it moved last year to its new place at Jangsak, just opposite Jackhan's furniture store, Spg 1116.

They have wide varieties of food ranging from prawn noodles, Chinese rice dishes, laksa, fishballs to ice desserts. My recommendation; you must try their fishballs, prawn dishes and ice desserts.

For my visit here today with my family, i have ordered "Big Prawn Noodles", "Yong Taufu" and the "Sea Coconut de Tadpole".

Big Prawn Noodles; succulent prawns - fried - served with noodles and their secret recipe prawn soup, eaten with their special sambal sauce... The burst of flavours and fragrance, ooh.. what more can I say?

Think that's enough, Not yet!

Yong Taufu; is my favourite one here. Costs $3 per bowl with 6 items, where you pick youself, additional items cost 50cents each. Items range from ladyfingers, chilli, tofu, beancurd and fishballs. All these items have their homemade fish paste in it. Be sure to take the fishballs, there's 2 kinds, do pick the homemade one, you will love it. You can choose to have them in different kinds of soups; prawn, clear, curry, etc.

The prawn and clear soup is nice. The taste of authentic fish with great bouncing texture combined with the special sambal sauce will make you crave for more.
Makes you feel like a bouncing ball...whatever that means. For those who are spicy fanatic (like me), you will love the sambal sauce, authentic, spicy, sour, bursting and exploding your taste buds.

Ice desserts ($3 each) - shaved ice, millions (exaggeration) kinds of toppings, sweet, cooling ... you will need it after savouring the sambal sauce, you'll know what I mean.

One of the best desserts I guess is the "Sea Coconut de Tadpole". Don't worry, these are not real tadpoles, just bouncy jellies which you will never find anywhere
else in Brunei served together with sea coconut with honey and some chrysanthemum syrup on top of shaved ice... result, cooling.. have fun biting those tadpoles.

Although the place may not have your classy elegant ambience or your highly trained waitresses offering 5-star services, the food is worth the try. Also, the first step into the shop, and you will be overdosed by the prawn gas(just the odour of prawn cooking).

So go and battle with the prawns!
