Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations will be on TV tonight. His destination this time is Singapore, so we were informed by a friend. I enjoy his culinary globe-trotting escapades immensely. Back then in Singapore, I would tune in to his programs religiously. He is one dare-devil because he eats EVERYTHING. Everything here means warthog anus, sheep testicles, ant eggs, a raw seal eyeball, fetal ducks egg, cobra's heart etc. Nothing fazes him.
So I was curious what food he would be sampling in Singapore. And on top of it all I do crave to see my home country again, even if only fleeting glimpses of its comings and goings. Plus Mr R finds Bourdain interesting and entertaining too. Thus we tuned in to his show. Big Mistake.
What do you do when:
Chicken rice
Bak chor mee
Prawn mee
Satay
Prata
Chilli crabs
Char kway teow
Roast pork
Carrot cake
appeared right before your eyes, yet you DO NOT get to eat them? I resorted to salivating. And then more drooling. It was agonizing watching him devouring the food, I must concede. The show ended with me feeling empty and HUNGRY.
I miss home.

Yoz, Hoonie! Heard from Pris that you are coming back with her in May too! ALL THESE food will appear in front of you! I try to check out a buffet where you can have everything at one go!

Dear Cory!

Hey dear! Oh I can TOTALLY understand your "suffering". Wahhhhh..... Yes yes! Let´s look forward to eating together ok? Definitely want to eat my lungs out. I wish I can store food in my tummy like camels storing water! Oh, sometimes when I feel empty and hungry, I simply eat my Primataste food! U still have?
Yes, luckily I still have some in stock. Though we've finished the chicken rice ones. A must to stock up more the next time...
