its only week 3 of school and i am piled with countles deadlines and work to do... and to make matters worst... not only am i taking quite a few different modules from ah xian n cereal.. NIE YONG TAU HOO has closed down!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not being able to eat my comfort food during lunch made the hours i spent in nie quite unbearable...
the thought of being able to order kway teow soup with cuttle fish, tau pok, mushroom (yum!), bittergourd, fried eggplant, bai cai, seaweed chicken, "the thin rectangle piece of brown thing", meat ball and red chilli always motivate me to sit through boring lectures and tutorials... it is always exciting and adrenaline-rushing when i "run" to the canteen during lunch breaks, especially at around 130 to 2pm, because at that time there won't be much things left to pick so i will secretly pray that there will be at least 1 cuttle fish or mushroom left and the happiness & satisfaction i get when there's something left is enough to last me till my classes end.
the best time to eat yong tau hoo in nie is around 1030, because not many people will be at the canteen yet and the selection at the stall will be most complete. sometimes if the auntie is in a good mood, i can take up to 3 mushrooms. no matter how many items i take, the bowl of yong tau hoo + kway teow never go beyond $4!!! and u muz know hor... the fish meat they put inside the items are not just "surface" only lo.. there is quality in every item. and the soup..... so perfectly brewed that i can find no word that can describe its goodness without under-rating it. (ok, i am exaggerating abit)
these 3 weeks, i don't really look forward to having lunch in school anymore. even canteen A in ntu is boring to me... coz the q at macdonalds is always very long.... and the foodcourt is always packed.
yong tau hoo, i miss you.
you r the best thing that happened to me in nie (except knowing my pals of coz)
no matter where you go to, yong tau hoo mood swing auntie and actions very slow uncle, i wish u all the best in your future endeavours!!!!!
hooray for nie yong tau hoo!!!
hip hip , hooray!!!
