Roasted duck, roasted pork, roasted chicken and now the ROASTED PIGEON! Chinese are really good in roasted stuff and roasted pigeon is normally found in Hong Kong. It’s so yummy, the meat is better to chew than chicken and it’s awesome. Eat with some salt and yum yum.
Are you hungry now?
I did not take my big DSLR out today and decided just to use only my mobile phone to shoot, and was playing with the toy camera app in my phone so all my food photos are in Lomography. Cool, I am in LOMO mood today.
Nothing much to intro about this place because I’ve written about it before. It’s the famous and delicious Malay food stall in Tanjung Tokong. People lives nearby knows about it and it’s really nice and I go there for lunch quite often, with dad and mom. Although I have been eating Malay food for quite some times in camp but Malay food outside and inside camp is so so much different. Inside the camp, it sucks (only good sometimes).
Rice.
Brinjal/Eggplant in sambal.
Curry beef. So-so only.
Vegetable, don’t know call what.
Vegetable, cook with egg. Don’t know call what also, got bean inside one. Enlighten me please?
Ladies finger! Nice to be eaten with curry gravy.
Yummy lunch. Because of LOMOGRAPHY, don’t bother about the colour, that’s arts! =)
I just woke up feeling that I want to experiment on food photography. I got to say it’s pretty hard for me to play with food photography, especially it’s a little bit hard to catch the picture composition and the depth of field of the food for the right photo. Surf a lot of net and my hand was itchy to start on it.
I went to the Chinese restaurant in Penang Sports Club for lunch and we ordered 3 dishes. The Curry Kapitan Chicken, Sambal Vegetabla and Mutton in a Pot. From what I’ve known, guests are allow to go into the restaurant of the sports club and payment are via cards. Though, I don’t really see a lot of outsider. It’s my dad who is the club member but I don’t really go there to have my meal.
Let’s get into some photos.
Curry Kapitan Chicken. The best dish of 3 but it’s not that good when comparing to my own homecooked version.
Sambal Vegetable, tasted a little bit too salty.
Lastly, I got mutton in a pot, cooked in Chinese style. I don’t like it.
Well, the subject is on the photography but not on the food, so don’t bother about the comment, what do you think about the photos? I spent around 2 to 3 minutes for shooting these and mom and dad were staring at me while I do so.
A Malay style sambal. Chili is pounded together with toasted Shrimp paste (belacan) in a stone mortar. Tomatoes are optional ingredients. Sometimes, sweet sour mangoes or equivalent local fruits are added. Salt, sugar and lime juice are the last items added. Eaten with cucumbers or ‘ulam’ (leafy herbs) in a meal of rice and other dishes. A Malaysian-Chinese version is to fry belacan with chili.
Just exploring myself with some photography technique. Taken this small plate of sambal in the Chinese restaurant in Penang Sports Club. I do usually eat sambal with omelette and also fried rice too. That’s all for me, how about you?
