Why is it that if others pay, you eat the expensive ingredients first, but if you have to pay, you eat the cheaper ingredients first?

Going by your logic, so if you go for a buffet lunch or dinner at Shangri-la which you are paying, you will eat cheaper items like salad and mee hoon first instead of prawns, oysters, meat dishes and other seafood?

May I ask if money is very very important to you, as in it ranks above everything including your health (balance meal vs money's worth)?

KNN my uncle think you have a slightly wrong perception of my uncle KNN although money is important but health also important KNN my uncle will attack all the bestest food in buffet becas he rarelee goes to buffet (probably once every 5 years KNN) so even he attack all the bestest it is not going to do any harm to his health KNN as for the non buffet my uncle see it as wastage if he were to leave the not so nice food not being eaten if he pays it KNN

 

[bigcockman]

I usually eat the chicken last.

Why is that so?

Is it because:

1. You will use your hands to eat the chicken, so you don't want to eat along the way throughout the meal so as not to have oily utensils to hold on. You rather keep it as a last item after you have finished everything else.

or

2. You want to savour the best (assuming it's chicken wing for you) for last?

Your point is noted. Thank you for your clarification.

I wash my hands first, chew up the two kuning fish head first. followed by chewing the kuning tails, if they are crispy enough, both heads and tails can be eaten. I’ll continue to tackle the dorsal and ventral fins, similarly, if crispy enough I’ll chew and swallow them. Just need to look out for that T shaped bone just below the ribs of the kuning, else I’ll chew and swallow the ribs and pectoral fins at one go. Next to go would be the meat from the sides are then torn off along the spine of the fish, leaving it looking like a comb.

Once the kuning meat is out, I set them aside for later while I tackle the wings, starting with chewing on the alula then the phalanges, then the meat between the metacarpals. In the mid-joint, meat between the ulna and radius will be removed and set aside with the fish meat. The meat around the humerus will be enjoyed on its own without any rice, may dip into the sambal after most of the meat from the humerus is removed.

With all the bones of the kuning fish and chicken wing out of the way, I slowly eat a bit of protein with rice alongside some sambal- campur campur lah. I eat nasi lemak with my hands, no utensils.

Nasi Lemak (210g) - Rice made in coconut milk, wrapped in banana leaf with fried egg, anchovies

Comment: Although this dish is low in total fat, it is high in saturated fat which increases the risk of heart disease. So, have it only occasionally and don’t ask for extra ingredients like fried chicken wing!

Probably served cold. It has to be warm. Anchovies crispy when hot.
