I'm only starting to appreciate cooking and reading about food and cooking...and I'm like, I like eating to analyse (i.e. trying to figure out how the flavours comes together, what it's made of, etc.), in the hope of making it. Otherwise, food is just...fuel.

Your cooking adventures sound so interesting!

have u tried that strange "scientific/experimental/lab" type cuisine, can't rem what it's called now, like el bulli and iggy's?

no I haven't tried that kind of stuff. i believe it's called molecular gastronomy or something like that?

oh yes. lik would like to try it but i'm totally skeptical... especially since the restaurants who do this type of cuisine act like they are God's gift to diners! all the hype, difficult-to-impossible to get reservations etc.... cheh! i'd pick good old kopi tiam anytime man!

Very random, not sure if it's the song you're listening to, but there's one I know that starts with, "You must have fallen from the sky..." It's called "Fallen From The Sky", from the soundtrack of the movie Once. Great soundtrack featuring a song that won the Oscar for Best Song in 2008. Very melancholic tunes. Obviously, this sucker for melancholy here bought it...
