Feel restaurant

Yangon - For dinner we went to this restaurant that came highly recommended for its many local patrons.   There were many local diners in this restaurant and food was good.   It is more casual and I had to walk up to the counter and pick the dishes I like,  my orders was noted down and brought to my table.

Pick and choose your dishes
complimentary starters
The sauce in the middle was spicy and had a strong fish smell but fortunately it tasted good.

Dishes Lesley ordered
Lesley ordered 'fried prawns with sambal', 'egg plant', 'mutton' and 'vermicelli and egg' dishes.  All tasted really good.   We cleared the dishes and the second round I ordered them.

Beef stew and pork stew
The Beef had a very strong 'animal' smell and not really to my liking.  The Pork was ok.

Roti prata or Roti chennai
It was funny to see this Roti prata being sold which I believe has more to do with Malaysian influence.  Many Yangon residents can speak Malay having lived and work there for years.

Malacca food
This Feel restaurant also had hawker style stalls set up outside the restaurant that serve Malaysian food of Laksa and chicken rice.

Calesa around Intramuros

Manila - Together with Albert, we took a calesa (horse drawn carriage used in Philippines) around Intramuros. Albert and Lesley Albert and I Intramuros is the oldest district and historic core of Manila.  The walled part of Manila was called intramuros, which is Latin for "within the walls"; districts beyond the walls are known as extramuros meaning outside the walls.  Construction of the defensive walls was started by the Spaniards in the late 16th century to protect the city from foreign invasions.   Guarding the old city is Fortaiago wich is located at the mouth of the river.

Cheong Guk Jang - fermented bean soup

Seoul - Lunch with Youngjin was at a traditional soup restaurant and it was crowded.   Youngjin asked me many times Cheonggukjang "ok", I said ok not knowing what to expect.  I have tried many weird and smelly good in Seoul, so I was very prepared.   My first time tasting Cheonggukjang and I like it. CheongGukJang 청국장 is fermented soybean soup aka Stinky soup.  Actually, I like fermented food and the smell does not put me off.   I like fermented food because of the many health benefits and also we have them here in Singapore - tempe, belachan, fermented bean curd (which I love with my porridge), chincaluk, etc.. very hot Cheonggukjang  I always buy danjang paste and bring home to make soup.  I understand that they are the same but the difference is Cheonggukjang beans are uncrushed and are fermented for a longer period of time.
