Mee Kai Kee

curry mee

Have you ever experienced snippets in time when the Federal Highway in your life feels like an Autobahn?  When you want 80km/h, but life deals you 200?  When you pace yourself at work to meet your deadlines, and all at once, everybody wants things “today”?  When you trudge along in friendship, but the other party deals you a Go Straight To Jail, Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Collect $200 card?  When you tell yourself that you’ll mail those Chinese New Year cards out tomorrow, only to find that tomorrow’s Chinese New Year?

Tomorrow’s Chinese New Year, and I have yet to mail those darned cards.

Yes, I need simplicity.

A bowl of curry mee, oozing with the richness of coconut milk in a thick red curry, silky smooth steamed chicken soaking in the spicy broth, and barely cooked cockles…..those wonderful juicy cockles.

I feel better now.

  2. Happy Chinese New Year,
    may the year of the rats bring lotsa food to your happy tongue (and in front of your camera),

    The mostest grossest stuff known to mankind. Or Kenny-kind at least. Ugh.
