Tropika delivery

Evening shift work dinner order YUMMMM!!

This was from Tropika Malaysia Cuisine via Uber Eats. My 2 friends & I each got our own Singapore laksa, & shared everything else.

Top left: Chili crispy chicken wings - these weren't fried, so I'm assuming baked. The wings were kind of dry, but I didn't mind it too much. They were spicy, like 6.5/10. My 1st piece was very shocking lol it wasn't that it was VERY spicy, but the chili powder was concentrated bcos I took a piece from the top, so my bite was basically loaded with chili powder.

Top right: Sambal bunchies - this turned out to be fav dish aside from the laksa entree haha the beans were crunchy, the sauce was good, came with baby shrimps & a bit of tomato.

Bottom left: Skewers - sorry, I don't have pic of them out of the foil wrap. I had 1 chicken satay skewer & 1 bef satay skewer. I usually prefer the latter bcos I like beef but I liked the chicken one more. It was probably my fault bcos I saved the beef skewer for 2nd break so I microwaved it, & may have over-heated it so it became dry & chewy.

Bottom right: Roti canai - this was okay. .. I have no complaints about the roti; it was soft & slightly chewy. The texture was good & tasted slightly sweet. I didn't like the Malay curry sauce that much & didn't mind eating the roti as is but for some pieces, I used the satay sauce as dipping sauce instead.

& our laksa!

The packaging was great. I wished all restaurants did this with their noodle soups. The bottom of the bowl contained the broth & toppings, while the top half bowl contained the noodles & whatever else where sogginess would not be preferred. The laksa had the fried tofu & shrimps on the bottom along with the broth, & the vermicelli & bean sprouts were in the top compartment. Then you 'flip over' the top bowl so the contents enter the broth. So convenient!!

Laksa = 100%! LOVED IT!

PS: I am currently on another vacation but it is not s staycation this time :P will report back when I return! Bye bye!

Danny: Ugh, they're back again

Jazz: Don't make that face at paying customers. Do you want to make a portal back home?

Danny rolling his eyes: Yes

Jazz: Then we need to get enough money to buy the parts. If that means waiting tables at a barely legal dinner, where idiots hit on us, then we wait those stupid tables. Now go over there and get the Waynes to leave us a 200 tip.

Danny: Fine, but only if you do too!

Jazz: *Tighten her apron straps into an hourglass figure* Way ahead of you.

Danny: *Rolling eyes but does the same*

Meanwhile with the Waynes

Bruce: It's so nice to go out to eat with you all

Alfred: Indeed. It's a nice change, don't you agree, children?

Wayne kids: *hyperventilating*

Bruce Not looking up from his phone: The Fenton siblings?

Alfred: Indeed, sir. It seems like Master Dick, Master Jason, and Miss Cass are going to attempt to speak to Ms. Fenton today. Master Tim, Master Damian, Master Duke, and Miss Steph don't seem mentally ready to look Mister Fenton in the eye. Bets?

Bruce: Dick chokes on his fork again. Tim face plants on the table, and Steph once again speaks in gibberish after forgetting the entire English language.

Alfred: Very good, sir.

"I am going to get a good grade in ___________, a thing that is both normal to want and possible to achieve" drifts through my brain with positively alarming regularity.

The quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

That's how the saying goes. You never realized just how true it was until you started working as Captain John Price's assistant. It had started off innocently enough, bringing him a tea or coffee when he asked. Maybe scolding him whenever you found out he skipped lunch.

You had been baking brownies, trying out a new recipe, and you just needed someone to taste them (and maybe help you get rid of the batch if need be). So, you brought them to work, left them in a pretty box on Price's desk when you dropped off his coffee.

You certainly hadn't expected the rest of the task force to come around to your desk, begging to know why you didn't bring any for them. Turn out that not only did Price brag out your baking skills, he's refusing to share with the rest of the task force, despite the fact you had brought more than enough for all of them.

Looks like you're going to have to make more.

"All those empty rooms

We could have been anywhere, anywhere else

Instead, I made a bed with apathy

My heart knew the weight

Ten years worth of dust and neglect

We made our peace with weariness and let it be..."

Gluten-free tandoori chicken wrap from Remedy~

This was a work dinner on a particular evening shift. I don't need GF diet but was recommended by one who is on GF diet to get this. Apparently everyone who has tried both the GF & regular tandoori chicken wrap said the GF one tasted better.

I have nothing to compare to but I can say it was tasty! This was 1 order of the wrap; however, as you can see, they conveniently have the 1 order in 2 separate pieces instead of cutting a large one in half. I thought this was very considerate of them! I also didn't think it would be so filling! I'm sorry I didn't get a cross section of it - it was just very messy bc it also came with a sweet dipping sauce, so my hands were sticky. The filling inside the wraps was PACKED! & I mean PACKED.

Conclusion: I would order again. But maybe I should get the regular one next time to compare.

*note1: it was slightly spicy, like a 3.5/10.

*note2: has strong/abundance of fennel seeds. If you're not a fan of this flavour, do not get.

A Persuasive Argument - dpxdc

"Great!" Danny says, clapping his hands together to get everyone's attention. The dinner table falls silent as everyone looks towards him. It's a full house today and, honestly, Danny's a little nervous. "I'm sure you're all wondering why I gathered you here today."

"It's dinnertime. In our house." Duke mutters, while doing a very bad job of concealing his yawn. He holds his fork poised over the braised beef, but, just like everyone else, still looks towards Danny before tucking in. It's intriguing enough to wait.

"Yeah, no one misses Alfie's dinner." Dick says, with a brilliant smile that Danny can't help but return.

"Precisely! What better time to talk to you all than when you're all actually here!"

"Wait, I thought you came round to work on our English essays?" Tim asks, blinking owlishly.

"I'm afraid I've lured you here under false pretences, Tim."

"This is where I live."

"I would still really appreciate help on that essay though, I mean, what the hell is Hamlet even about? I just don't get that old time-y language, like 'Hark! A ghost hath killed me!' - absolute rubbish, what does that even mean?"

"The ghost never kills anyone in Hamlet, he's there to tell Hamlet that he was murdered. Have you actually read it?"

"No, but it sounds like you have. Tim, I want this guy to help me with my essay instead. I know for a fact that you haven't read Hamlet, either."

"So? We don't need Jason, I've read the Sparknotes."

"Hi Jason, I'm Danny, pleasure to meet you, summarise Hamlet in three sentences or less."

"Am I auditioning to help you write your essays? I can't believe you’ve gone through your whole school life without reading it, it’s good!"

"Hamlet, along with a number of other classics, was banned in our house because it portrayed ghosts as intelligent and sympathetic beings rather than evil, animalistic beasts. I didn’t even get to see The Muppet's Christmas Carol until last year with Tim! It was surprisingly good, and I hate Christmas because everyone always argued and it sucked. But we're getting off topic. I—"

"No, no, please go back to that, because what the fu—"

"Boys, please." Bruce interrupts, looking to the world as if he wants to hang his head in his hands. "Danny, you were about to say something?"

"Oh, yeah, Mr. Wayne! Thanks!"

"Please, call me Bruce."

"Well, that very succinctly brings me to my point, because I'd actually really like to call you dad."

Nobody says a word. Nobody even blinks, all as shocked as the other, watching open-mouthed as Danny pulls his laptop out from beside his chair. Bruce can definitely feel a headache coming on.

"Before you say anything, I've prepared a 69 slide PowerPoint presentation on why you, Bruce Wayne, should adopt me, Danny Last-Name-Pending. Please save your questions, comments, and verdict until the end, thank you."
