A friend from Kampung Gua Ulu Bengkulu was in town recently. So I took him to few eating spots to show what Penang food is all about. Because back in his hometown, they only get to eat mushroom and chew sugar canes.
Right after the airport, we went to a roadside mamak to eat nasi lemak ikan bilis. When he opened it,
“HUWA!~!~! Got curry, egg and vege! Yum yum!”
I was surprised by his excitement. He really really orang hutan style. Nevermind, I controled my laughter and planned to surprise them even further the next day.
The next day, at a hawker center, I ordered fish head curry meals for the 2 of us,
“HUWA!~!~! Got curry, egg and vege! Just like nasi lemak but everything is bigger and fresher! Yum yum!”
Eat with him really tension gila. Simply shout like crazy man.
But on the final day, I brought him to KFC restaurant and ordered him a dinner plate. But this time, he didn’t shout “HUWA!~!~!” but instead,
“KFC-WA!~!~! Got potato, bread and vege!”
I asked why and he said,
“No fish why need to say HU”
HUWA!~!~! This post really lame huh..
