Arab food

Yesterday was a very tiring day. Tapi aku tak tau kenapa aku boleh bangun pukul 7:30 pagi.

KAGUM WEH.

Anyhow, I'll tell you later what I did in the morning, but now, I'm going to story mory about what happened during the evening (til night, duh).

Oklah, saja bagi gempak, tak der apa apa yang menarik hati berlaku..hahaha, cuma we were invited for dinner by apak's friend cum colleague cum client, ntah, aku pon tak tau macam mana nak describe.

He's been here in Malaysia (he's from Saudi) for almost a week, sebab adik dia nak masuk MMU and is looking for an apartment. Since we are so baik hati and pemurah hati dan suka tolong orang (kah kah kah), we offered them a helping hand lah. Walaupon my dad isn't in Malaysia.

Jadi it was mainly my mom lah jadi chauffeur, dan negotiator dan penterjermah (sebab orang Malaysia lebih suka cakap Melayu daripada Inggeris). Anyway, malas aku nak cakap lebih lebih pasal mencari rumah ni, sebab tak interesting pon, let's fast forward it to dinner semalam. Haha

Did you know now in Cyberjaya, kedai kedai makanan Arab dah banyak?? Oh you tau? I didn't. LOL. Ye lah, I was in the U.S for 6 months kan...(wahhh, macamlah 6 months ago tu kedai tu belum wujud lagi haha)

He invited us to Saba restaurant. I think sesiapa yang kerja kat Cyberjaya tu tau lah kedai ni. Bila diorg tunjuk je menu, wah, aku terus dapat migraine. hahaha. Kambing kambing lembu lembu ayam. Kambing kambing kambing lembu ayam.

Tengok dari menu je aku dah kenyang. Hahah

So anyhow, we let him order for us, sebab dah tentu tentu dia yang lebih arif kan. Walaupon kat Malaysia, tapi sebab ramai pekerja orang dia and semua makanan dia, tiba tiba lah pulak dah jadi turf dia.

So mula mula dia order appetizer.  3 jenis;

hummus (tak sedap, sebab chickpeas geleng sampai jadi paste pastu makan dengan roti)

Maria, lebih kurang macam ni la, tapi dia nipis macam lempeng/pizza

and satu lagi aku tak ingat apa nama, tapi rupa dia macam ni:

Bebola sayur. LOL. Rasa macam maruku pon ada jugak (I think it's called Falafel)

Ok, bayangkan, there were 5 of us, (mak, myself, bro and sis and him) and appetizers ni dah membuatkan kitaorg kenyang. WHat the hell, baru appetizer, belum masuk main dish lagi. Haha, my brother dah lah puasa, dia balun semua roti roti yng kitaorg tak habis.

Ok next, dia order main dish, ok ni memang aku tak ingat nama, sebab masa dia order tu pon cakap bahasa Arab. Haha.

So main dishes pon sampai...satu..satu...satu...sekali meja jadi macam ni:

Ok ni sekadar gambar hiasan. Ni dah sah sah lah bukan makanan arab kan..haha

 Oklah, macam ni lah, ni ha aku letak gambar makanan Arab, but do take note, atas meja kitaorg ada LAGI BANYAK makanan daripada gambar ni.

Our table penuh dengan makanan, gila kauuu. Tu pon dia cakap kalau boleh dia nak order lagi, sebab ni kira tak cukup untuk 5 orang. Tapi dia tak order sebab dia tengok kitaorg dah macam berpeluh peluh nak habiskan. HAHa

Pastu yang kelakarnya, it's normal for us lah kan kalau dah tak larat, we stop kan. Tapi he kept on insisting ok, bukan insisting lah, but dia macam, "are you done?? Here have some moreee" *tolak makanan ke kita*.  We felt obliged lah kan, sebab dia yang belanja, so nak tanak terpaksa lah makan jugak..hahaha.

Last last perut kembungggggg.

Pastu first time jugak minum Arab beer

Ok I know, aku memang ketinggalan, semua orang dah merasa, but I just came back from U.S kan..kat sana semua beer betul..hahahahaha (ok alasan semata-mata)

He wanted to order desert, tapi kali ni memang kitaorg surrender, sorrii pakcik, i kenot eat animorrrrr. Last last dia order tea + mint sajaaa. Cause he said it's a tradition after makan minum teh.

Logik lah, sebab nak menghilangkan after taste makan kambing lembu tadi.

Overall, the food was (really fricking) good and he even claimed yang it tasted like back home, so his brother won't have any prob kalau dia merindui makanan negara dia.

The price was NOT pricey, I dunno kenapa orang cakap pricey, price ala-ala macam kita makan western food jugak. I mean it's an international food, what do you expect. Takkan kau nak harga macam makanan mamak kot (eh, mamak pon mahal ok).

So now I know where to go next time kalau mulut nak merasa makanan asing..tak der lah balik balik western, balik balik italian, balik balik sushi...sekali pekena Arab pon sedap jugak kannn.

Balik balik rumah je, dah pukul 11pm, balik terus terbongkang macam ular sawa. HAHAH.

Oh lepas makan tu, mak tengok receipt:

Mak: Eh, ada makanan nama Maria lahh. Femesnya nama mak, sampai makanan pon diorg letakk *nada ala-ala bangga*
Me and Sis: A ah, memang lah ada, pizza kambing tu tadi.
Mak: HA?? Kambingg??? Mak ni umpama kambing?? cheit!

Hahahahahaha
