sushiiiiiiii~~~~~

i finally had sushi! Significant Other isn't a sushi fan, and when i got pregnant early last year it was advisable not to eat raw food, which included sushi and oysters so i think i didn't set foot into a Japanese restaurant at all last year. come to think of it, there were a bunch of food i kinda avoided when i was pregnant, which included:
- sushi =(
- oysters (the one at Uptown is dee-lish)
- kicap (mil says later the baby would turn out dark skinned, haha)
- half cooked eggs (to avoid some kind of poisoning contamination)
- pineapple (Significant Other would purposely order this because he knows i can't take it, chis!)
- and a few others that i'll add in once i remember them

i temporarily acquired the taste buds for Onions during my pregnancy, haha. i do not like them anymore now, i only eat onions if you mash them beyond recognition, or if you slice those bawang besar and fry them into tempura =P.

anyway, my friend had initially invited me to Sushi King for lunch yesterday, but i was running late and only got into the office after lunch. i met fil in the lift, btw. that's the second time i've run into him at the lifts ever since i get in early, haha. anyway, we decided to make it dinner instead (yay!). i was late, so my friend ordered first (of which he already finished half of). i added crab mayo (my favorite). usually i'd order the normal california roll, but this time my friend ordered the the soft shell crab roll, which is absolutely yummy! what he had ordered seemed little at first, but it's actually very filling. and to wash everything down with a cup of steaming green tea is absolutely lovely. too bad Significant Other doesn't share the same taste of Japanese with me =P.

i can still remember my first taste of Japanese food. and hated it. i went to this Japanese restaurant with Nedd's family, seated at those Japanese-style tables with cushions and everything. at the time everything on the menu seemed alien to me, and i can't remember what i hentam ordered. i can vaguely recall not liking it. the only think i could put into my stomach was the california roll. haha. but i remember what my uncle's dish looked like since it seemed weird to me at the time. it was sorta like green noodles served on ice, but i have no idea what is was called. haha. i was in my tweens then. of course, my taste buds sucked.

then when i enterd Uni i sorta acquired the taste of sushi. but because at the time i couldn't afford to dine in at those fancy restaurants, i just bought them at supermarkets (Jusco Kinta City comes to mind, lol). then i got to know this friend of mine (the one i had dinner with yesterday) who's a sushi lover at heart, so sometimes we go for sushi together. hehe. i even purchased the member card for Sushi King a few years ago you could get 10% off each time, but it was underutilized since i didn't have anyone to go with. at least now i have a sushi partner whenever the craving calls for it =P.

i'm a fan of most type of foods, but i guess i like Chinese, Japanese, Thai and Malay food the most. i'm not a fan of Korean though. i just don't know why. ever since i first tried it i didn't like it, and even though i went a number of times after that, i still don't like it. i think it has something to do with kimchi. or this weird aftertaste i get in my mouth after having a few bites. my colleague (more like my deskmate) has opened up a Korean restaurant somewhere in KL. i hope he doesn't read this entry though, not to offend him or anything. hee~. it's just my personal opinion. who knows, i might acquire the taste for Korean food after having a go at his restaurant? =D

jergh. i had planned to write about Dayana's 6 month milestone. in the end i ended up crapping about sushi. haha. which goes to show i'm hungry. tomorrow Dayana is 6 months! i've been busy the whole week so i didn't even have time to visit her at my mom's.

my Drybees dah sampai!!! i just can't resist the colors. i just realized that i'm not a hardcore CD mommy though =P
