Popped out for a quick lunch today, thought I'd try the mobile stalls opposite the mini-Giant at Kelana Jaya. Easy walk but alas, I forgot my phone/camera. So this post will be missing pics but quite honestly, we're not missing much. In fact, stop reading! This post is a bloody waste of time! Go to another food blog. I'll tell you when there's something good to eat in this bloody town.
You detect resentment in my words? Well, read on if you insist but there may be some strong language.
Okay, I started with apom balik. Let's start with the positive: it was hot off the pan. But only because I insisted! Wasn't optimistic when she was cooking it: thin layer of peanuts, no coconut and I could count the number of corn kernels with one hand. Hedged my bets and took half for RM1. As disappointingly expected, it just tasted of batter. Neither sweet nor salty nor sour, hell, I'll give it points if it was even bitter! Nope, gentle folks: all I got was a mouthful of warm, bland, mush. Sigh...
Putu piring next. This is from the stall mentioned here that pre-cooks their's. Since I was there early, they were still cooking. Aha, fresh putu piring!
*BIG SIGH*
Look, to these guys: TUTUP KEDAI LAH! Why sell putu piring with nothing in it? What that microscopic, two-atom thin spread of gula melaka? Are you joking? And your coconut is tasteless. How long has it been in your freezer? Since Ramadhan?
The only saving grace was that it was salty...on first bite. Then it was as bland and tasteless as that damn batter cake! Hell, I think raw rice flour has more flavour. Thank goodness I only bought 2 for RM 0.80.
So in conclusion, if you don't mind cheap disappointment, give these guys a go. Else, don't waste your time and calories quota. Now excuse me while I jog a couple of times round the block; I'll have to burn up those dumb calories so I can have something decent for dinner. Don't think this rant burnt enough.
