Lo Mai Kai...

I'm one of those people who could never stomach Lo Mai Kai (glutinous chicken rice) in the past. Too sticky. To greasy. To mushy. Etcetera. When we went out for dimsum breakfasts as a family, I'd steer clear from the Lo Mai Kai. As a result of a huge food poisoning scare that occured 20 years ago (actually I suspect it was combined with an intolerance I had towards glutinous rice! ~ I've shunned rice dumplings too), I have not eaten Lo Mai Kai for a very, very, very long time.

Today, Ben's mum very lovingly bought me Lo Mai Kai - from one market (to my initial horror)... and I didn't think refusing it would be a good idea.

So, I decided to put aside my Lo-mai-kai phobia.... and dig in. Got the jeebles at first. It smelt decent, being warm and steaming...

Took my first bite of it, and decided... "Hmmm, interesting. It actually tastes good."

Then I ate... and ate... and ate....

Before long, I had finished up the whole Lo Mai Kai - and it was really scrumpliciously, appetizingly, tantalizingly good. No stomach-ache or jelak-ness (despite it being the biggest lo mai kai I've ever eaten!) too. LOL.

I tell you... this is the best Lo Mai Kai I've eaten in 25 years! Haha. (As if I've eaten that many)

Lo Mai Kai (Goliath) giant! I've struck you down with a smooth stone from my slingshot! :P Praise the Lord!
