Wok Hei...it's everywhere along with other great food

And, even the post meal burps taste of it...

Char Kuey Teow

Broad noodles stir fried with bean sprouts, egg, chicken, pork, and other wonderful stuff.  A mystery brown sauce that is rich and blends with the meat.  Add some chili chop (Thai style sweet vinegared pepper) and you get sweet, umami, wok hei, and a bit of piquant heat.  Ummmmm, yummy.

A traditional breakfast started the day

Sarawakian Laksa

A rich, sour broth of fish and tamarind with noodles, shrimp (meh), chicken (Malaysian chicken, ... how?  I think it involves aliens and fax machines, really), egg, tofu, bean sprouts, lime, coconut milk, and sambal.  Crazy good.

Oh, there was a Spicy McChicken Deluxe last night.  Other than the chicken (aliens and fax machines, again) it's the same as at home.  When you're hot, sweaty, tired, and unsure if it's hunger or trouble that your stomach is signaling it's absolutely safe.  My food porn has limits.  You should never be forced to look at some things.

Fruits Rojak

And, the subject of those signals is pictured above.  Fruit, of my choice in this case, with brown sugar sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, and fermented shrimp paste all mixed and topped with crushed peanuts.  Yeah, specifically that last one comes with alllll sorts of "safe" questions.  Served with salted lime tea (which tasted a whole lot like Vietnamese slated lime soda...tasty!)

The smell of the shrimp paste was almost too much.  But it was good.  Pears, pink guava, Sarawakian pineapples, mango, and best of all (truly) cucumbers.  Oh, it's strange.  Very strange.  But it's also very good. It can move you in many ways.

Am I adapting?  Looks like it.

I just turned the A/C off...it was too cold with the room at 71F.  I am adapting.
