Marketing with MiniMe
With just a little over two weeks before CNY, the morning market at OUG had started to go into high gear. RELA personnel were deployed, and Jalan Hujan Rahmat 2 was closed, allowing for temporary stalls to mushroom up all along the road (most openly selling red crackers). I wouldn't say that it's a buying frenzy, but people still come to buy what's necessary to prepare for the coming festivities. Everyone is trying to get a bang for their buck. Plenty of biscuits and nian gao available, a clear indication of supply overshadowing demand. That day, I had a special breakfast appointment with KT and her MiniMe. MiniMe seemed a bit anti-social and was clinging to KT like a koala. It was better when she was distracted with a smartphone.
SK was sick after her trip to Copenhagen, so we went to her GP at Bukit Serdang. After seeing the doctor, we went to Restoran Bukit Tinggi for some famous YTF. The shop makes a very delicate spherical tofu, that has a texture similar to taufufah. They serve it in a clay pot with piping hot soup.
Don't bother trying the other stuff.
In the evening, met up with JJ and Bunny for dinner at Sushi Zanmai, Nu Sentral. JJ was back from visiting his parents in Penang. There was yu sang on the seasonal menu, so we took the opportunity do an early lou sang. Truth be told, it was quite yummy. Here's the recipe for their yu sang:
- Preserved radish.
- Preserved onion.
- Deep-fried wantan skin.
- Deep-fried burdock.
- Agar-agar.
- Tenkasu (tempura bits).
- Kelp.
- Cucumber.
- Carrot.
- Olive oil.
- Lemon juice.
- Salmon sashimi.
