Busy day. Finish the pete wedding shoot today. What a relief. Tired but rewarding. Down time now.
Fire up my google maps on my iPod after my bath. Type in kuta. The map loads. Hrmmm. Friend recommended german pork nuckles yesterday. I search pork and I search kuta. Mama german restaurant cme up. Jumped in the cab and headed there.
People in Bali are friendly. The cab driver is a father to three beautiful Balinese daughter. 20 17 and 16 of age.
I ordered pork nuckles. Potato pea soup and a large bintang draft. A bowl of peanuts just arrive. Yummy. I am hungry. Cold Bintang beer is just great this humid weather. *sip*
Wonder how the food gonna be. An Australian couple seated next to my table. A hong kong couple seated on my right. They enjoyed true meal. Could hear them. Makes me drool even.
I shall just wait for my pork nuckles and drink my beer.
Sitting at kuta right now. I abandoned my group of friends today. We were a group of 14. Without me they are 13. Not sure where they went. I took a cab from kuta to ubud to meet my couple that I was shooting.
Got back to hotel late. Calling for the magnificent 13 for dinner would be odd. They must be alreadydigging in by now. If not shopping.
Walked out to the town area found myself a restaurant. I ordered a seafood platter and it yet to come. I hope it is good. . Having a drunk as well. Traditional “arak” Bali lemon honey. I asked if it was strong. He said strong enough. What a wuzZ. Taste like honey lemon.
Still waiting for my seafood platter. They ran out of tuna which they usually serve. He said he’s replacing the tuna with 2 more prawns. Still sounds good …
Gotta have lobster, prawn, squid, clams….
Still waiting for my food. Just had a sip of traditional honey lemon arak. Still don’t think it is strong. The kitchen is next to me. I can see the cook prepping food for all of us in the restaurant.
Still waiting for my lobster. There are 4 Japanese seated next to my table. All dudes. Not very interesting. Looked like they had a round of bintang beer. Maybe that is stronger than my arak. They Re still very sober. They had clams. I know cos I see clam shell.
Food is here. Suck. Doesn’t look good. No clams. Guess I won’t have clam shells. Lobster looks pethatic.
It’s been really an interesting, and fantastic week. My mates at the gym brought me out for dinner at TGIF after my Tuesday class. Thank you guys. That’s Purdey, John Tan and Sharon posing with their food ready to dig in.
That’s me with the ladies, gonna dig in my Outrages something something beef tacos.
The guys in TGIF brought me cake bought by these people. Had to make me made my speech lah.
