: : Bazaar Ramadhan ~ Part III : :

Not feeling very well today. Sniff sniff. Think the atmosphere at the Bazaar Ramadhan yesterday were just ideal for the spread of flu viruses.

Anyway, here are some pictures of the famous Indonesian Layered Cake although it might have already been very Malaysianised. Can you see the various layers in the cake? Here is a close-up :

Can’t imagine myself doing this cake. Takes a lot of patients to bake each layer by layer in an oven. Must have the patience to do it. Also, must have the skill and technique to actually mix the mixture evenly. It’s not easy to beat the cake into the mixture, believe me.

We also saw this peculiar signage which said ‘amoi cantik’ @ beautiful babe. Hmmm… it was at the iced-drinks stall. Anyone?

Last picture courtesy of Melvin. It was so packed along the aisles that I couldn’t even get a picture.

: : Succulent Kurma : :

No, not Kurma the Curry. It is Kurma the date. {{nucleus}} put up a nice write-up about this fruit that is so popular during the Ramadhan months.

Makes interesting reading. Go and read it!

Was just surfing around when I read about Roasting a Pig in an Open Pit from the eGullet Culinary Institute. Not just any small suckling pig but one big fat adult one! Aiyo! That’s a 150 lb (68 kg) pig they’re roasting. Seriously ambitious.

Anyone up to trying it? :p
