Tapau Curry Mee When I’m Alone

Sometimes, when I’m all alone and it’s too late to find kaki for lunch a.k.a 3-4pm, tapau is the best..

Tapau is a Malaysian Chinese slang that is a synonym word to take away that Malaysians are much accustomed to, even to Malay..

When you are buying food from a Chinese food stall, you say “Tapau yat gor chow kuey teow” (Take away one fried kuey teow)..In Malay, you say “Bungkus satu chow kuey teow” (Take away one fried kuey teow)..

Of course, don’t use the word tapau when you are in Hong Kong because tapau in Hong Kong slang means to wrap a dead body or similar to cursing someone to die..

So when I’m alone for lunch, I’ll just drive out to the coffee shop nearby my house and get myself Curry Wantan Mee..

*Curry Wantan Mee*

It’s quite hard to find Curry Wantan Mee around my housing area nowadays, let alone nice one..

But I find this pretty good and it’s of very reasonable price..

I tapau-ed this Curry Wantan Mee, BIG, as in double wantan mee, for just RM5.50, or maybe cheaper than that..

And the taste? Nice~~ *wriggle eyebrows*..The curry is quite thick but it won’t go any further that might tick off your taste bud..It’s just nice..

The chicken pieces are chops of chicken drumstick, which is very common to use that in a curry mee, are tender and smooth..Yummy yum wtf..

What’s more enjoying than eating at home alone, connect the 32″ LCD TV to my computer and watch Gundam 00 on it..

Stimness~~..
