Breakfast of Kings

The chef at my hotel is really a genius. Seri Anjung: Rasa Malaysia definitely deserves some Michelin stars. The quality has been very consistent. One bite of the fried noodles or kuay teow is usually enough for me to spit it out. Superbly sweet. Plus the noodles are usually not properly cooked. Terrific. I've seen a regular try to neutralize the sweetness by dumping salt on it. Hah! Another colleague of mine uses chilli sauce. Such attempts remind me of trying to cover B.O. with the perfume. Lagi hapak! Sometimes breakfast is served with a starchy egg drop soup. Never dared try that. Snot in the morning. Eww. The fried rice is more decent, but the MSG in there has a wonderfully stinging sensation. The only edible thing they serve is the white porridge. Wonderfully hot and bland. Haha. But not all are misses. The chef did once whip up a nice macaroni in beef and clove broth. And the french toast is OK too. But that's just once in a blue moon when he slips up. Now you know why oats and eggs sounds like such a good thing to me over here. :D. Free tu makan je lah kan?

P.S.: The chef screwed up again today! I actually had seconds of the fried noodles!

seems like Brunei does not score very well on the gourmet list but then again is it a matter of different country different taste?

MSG, eeeuugggghhh!!!! How many bottles of water do you have to drink to down that???
Legolas said…
It's so frustrating when the food is free but most of them are inedible.

I think Brunei scores badly in food...anyway, just my impression gained from your blog about their food..I hv never been there before...so can be prejudice.

I generally agree food in restaurant do include MSG. Home prepared & cooked food is the BEST!
William, if u have transport, try the korean restaurant in Kuilap, along Cheong Hock music shop. The place doesn't look any much like escapde sushi but i guess they do prepare modest korean food.
