After a weeks stay in the hospital.. i cannot tell you how bad the food at the hospital were. Either they were too sweet or too saltiest.. or just no taste. Tea and coffee weren’t any better either. I never ever want to eat hospital food ever again.. not even those in the canteens..! horrid.. horrid and horrid..!
My MIL made these.. before I went into the hospital for surgery. Not exactly for me.. but my kid loves it.. and it is definitely pretty eh. The ang mohs are really good at making desserts and cakes.. i tell yer..!
A closer look.
A piece for you..?? Yummy eh..!

These were like $4 .. but they are really good. Before we used to be able to get it at the bakery in Hebron.. but they sold their bakery.. and well.. now it is owned by someone else.. and the last time we tried it.. it was kinda disappointing.. and we haven’t been back since. So once in a while.. the local grocery store in town.. has it.. and i never fail to get some.. because the man loves it.. and so does my kid.
You can see we are definitely no short of meat at all. BBQ is a big thing here during the summer. As you can see every grocery store is already stocking up on all the meat stuff .. for BBQ. There are just so much to choose from. Prices varies .. according to the brand.
More meat anyone..?? anyone starving out there..??
I’m gonna try this Angus beef burger this summer..!! i’ll let you know how they are.
We had lunch at Zeller’s Diner, I guess because it is called a diner.. they have the place decorated .. like the 60s diners .. or those on the highway in United States, it reminds me of the time i was in Anchorage… and on the highway back to the hotel and there were bikers all around the carpark of the diner. Anyways.. these was what we had last Sunday .. when we didn’t have to visit our in-laws.. because my MIL was up in the city .. watching RiverDance. This is my lasagne .. for like $8.50 ..?? can’t remember right now. Comes with salad and garlic bread. The lasagne was small eh.. and not that fantastic either.. and the Ceasar salad was really .. really dry.
The man had fish and chips/onion rings to share with the kid. It came with 3 pieces of fish .. and some onion rings and french fries. The cook was really nice.. and gave curly fries.. since we had a kid with us. The fish was really good.. for $8.99.
And this was my garlic bread.. free of course.. but it suxs..! big time. But i’ll have to say.. that the service staff was great.. and the kid ate all her fish.. and that was most important to us.
I keep saying the food is so expensive here.. but food like this huge eclair is really cheap. At $1.39 only.. this eclair would take me a few days to finish.. because i don’t like sweet stuff.. and secondly .. i’m diabetic. So back home I can get chicken rice for $2.50 but for a plate of chicken rice here.. it prolly cost me $10.00. Back home an eclair like this would prolly cost me $3.50 but here it is cheap.
Another closer look at all the fresh cream.. oozing out.. ! yums..!
Fresh trouts fried immediately after catching them. So fresh.. and so good. My mother-in-law said.. if you want the skin to be crispy .. roll them into flour .. just a bit. It was really good..!! nothing beats having fresh trouts. My in-laws kept offering me more.. but i didn’t wanna eat too much.. because my father-in-law had taken a whole afternoon to fish for them.
This was how it was fried.. pretty simple eh..?? and no oil everywhere. .and the fish had no fishy smell on them. And my mother-in-law deboned the fish for me.. not much any woman can asked for eh..?
My father-in-law went fishing and fished this trouts for dinner last Sunday.. just because we were going to visit. They were fried immediately.. and they were really good. You can’t get fish any fresher than this. I had thought about making sushi with it… but i’m sure the in-laws would eat them.. if they were raw.. muahahhaha!!
See how huge they are..!! yummy..!!!
There was a small one too. And yes.. we ate it immediately.
This was a home made bread pudding. I couldn’t figure out what it was either.. so if you didn’t.. don’t feel bad. Aunt Helena made this last week.. i didn’t try it.. but my FIL said it was pretty good. The women folks here are so good in whipping up their own dessert. But i wonder how they finished it though.. since Aunt Helena only eats it on her own.??
