U r my ice kacang in this tropical heat

Fat boy gobbling up his ice kacang at a roadside stall near Sunway Hotel, Georgetown. I'm just watching him eat as I got hit badly by a stomach bug last night. Suffering. Can't eat so many things :-(

Mel, hope you get well soon! BTW.. I know this tummy bug has been going round.. Malaysia AND UK! Strange!!! I remember last year I had it year end too (Xmas time). I hope this year I will be spared. :( Get well real soon!

@tsu lin: Thanks, dear. I was so miserable, it totally ruined my weekend. And being in Penang, every corner you go, you want to stop and eat something. How frustrating :(

It is! I can understand. :(

Well, an unwanted de-tox once a year I guess. Have you seen a Dr?

Melissa said...

@Tsu Lin: Feeling much better today, thank you. Watched what I ate, tried to ensure everything I ordered was freshly prepared.

Prav caught the bug - he didn't enjoy the journey back to KL.

Penang is a good haven but I seem to always get sick after eating there :(

Oh man! You caught this bug the last time we were in Penang too! What IS with that state??

(Back after a hiatus with no 'a', 'l', 's', and 'shift' on my keyboard. Yes, it was frustrating not being able to comment!

Mel, I know you got sick, but Praveen too?? I think it's just overeating, except maybe in your case with the oyster mee. Maybe you guys ate too much - people tend to do that when they visit Penang. Easy solution - just move here. Great food everyday, and you can take your time. Hehe.

@kris: dude, I think it was the chendol. Or maybe it was just overeating. No regrets.

@ranga: welcome back!

@tsulin: we've got news for you! get on chat =)

Melissa said...

@ranga: Yes, two consecutive trips to Penang. So sad.

@kris: Praveen definitely over ate. Fortunately, we had some plastic bags in the car for him to throw up on the journey back - and he was good enough to let me drive. Poor thing!

@Tsu Lin: LFTL (Looking For Tsu Lin) - where are you?
