To Houston Again

They say..."once bitten, twice shy" but where food is concerned, we do not say "Bye."

We went to Houston cafe again after more than six months since the incident on the un-chewable noodles and the "find." This time we did not order the noodles but instead tried their Assam Fish Curry....

Well, I must give them the credit this time... the fish curry was opposite of abominable... now I am writing french... hahahaa...

the fish head curry with lots of greens...

ordered another small plate of sweet potato leaves..
(half-eaten then only I remember to take picture!)

fried eggs with shrimps...

aaah... this is called "Free Corner"
Free soup, Free sweet desserts (tongsui) and Free cold drinks..

there....all "walloped untidily"
full satisfaction
this time "no strings attached" in the dishes... hahahaa....

Cacho said...

i found it interesting that you called the fish "abominable" ha ha ha ha - that means absolutely horrendous and should have never existed! i'm confused, was the food good or bad? does this mean you're going back?

reanaclaire said...

cathy: feel like taking it now too!


cacho: oh oh.. abominable to me was out of the world! hahaha.. should be contrary to it..right?
