The Rooster(Richard) Wanted To Eat Pork
This is Bak Kut Teh from Woodlands, Marsiling Court, near the wet market, which I heard from the news is undergoing renovation now. Richard and I went there for lunch on Friday, 28th March 2008 — those few where it was raining, but on this particular day, it was sunny day, sunny enough for us to cycle to Marsiling Court for Richard’s favourite Bak Kut Teh. He had been craving for it for so long.
The Pig Don’t Eat her own meat
Bak Kut Teh is means pork ribs/bone soup. Normally in other places, the Bak Kut Teh is rather standard, with pork ribs, few slices of garlic and soup only. However, at Marsiling here, this Bak Kut Teh has more ingredients. There are ‘You Tiao’, and various pig’s organs like liver, stomach and intestines. There are side dishes like preserved vegetables and braised peanuts.
Marry Chicken Follows Chicken, Marry Dog Follows Dog= 嫁鸡 随鸡, 嫁狗 随狗
For people who do not like to eat pork, like me, but like to eat organs and drink soup, this is just the perfect place. It just suit him, my husband, and me.
Garden of Eden
On this day, we were like Adam and Eve, we were so happy, at this garden of ‘ancient’ Rain Trees, with beautiful growth of plants nesting on them — The wild orchids, the ferns and so on. It was such a beautiful piece of land, left vacant here. We were the man and woman of God’s creation.
Freshness We seek, Not Flesh we want
It was a day where my bell rang and rang, bringing me back to my childhood days. I had not eaten pig’s liver for such a long time. Richard ordered mixed Bak Kut Teh, so there are meat as well as organs in it. There are special techniques when cooking organs, they must not be too cooked nor too raw. That day, I had a good taste of pig’s liver and pig’s stomach. But of course, they are not the best. The best one is cooked by my mother, FRESH, NO SMELL OF SMELLY PIG TASTE.
God of Love and Care
Anyway, on this day, the serving was great — First Time. It was not the first time we ate there. Previously we went there, the serving was little, soup was little too. That day, vegetable a lot, ingredients a lot, soup look normal, almost to the rim, but SURPRISINGLY, really SURPRISINGLY, I tell you, the soup, I KEEP DRINKING, but it NEVER runs dry! REALLY!!!! This is the miracle of GOD, the level of soup in the claypot really stays the same, amazing!!!
Water, My Life. Water My Life 我的生命
Soup is what I really need and cannot do without. Without soup, I would not want to eat the Bak Kut Teh. The smell, the taste of the soup is very important, next the freshness of the meat. Towards the end of it, I ate a piece of stomach, Yucks!! I ‘pui’ (spit) out because they had obviously mixed some frozen or not so fresh stomach in them. I stopped eating after that, with my mouth ’stinking’ of ‘not fresh’ aftertaste of the smelly pork. I almost vomit and felt nauseous.
Serpent In The Garden City
Now that they are undergoing upgrading, it is a good idea, so that we can be served with better environment, better hygiene too. It is really a good place for dining, somewhat similar to the heart of woodlands. It is the first place I went after I regained my new life! And it is this special day that Richard and I saw the green snake, First Time, OUR FIRST TIME…
Trees of knowledge
Having meals in nature, open-space, fresh air (if no one smoke), isn’t that wonderful? Isn’t that better than dining in food court? Imagine you can watch birds, appreciate the beauty of nature, see flowers, beautiful plants around you, while you eat your food. If there are wild monkeys here, that would even be better. Do you know that at this old woodlands road, there were plenty of monkeys, they are so cute. Isn’t it a good place if you would like to have animals, pets and people to have meals together here, that is heavenly paradise, all blending into ONE… That is my dream, fresh air, all people living in peace and harmony with the accompaniment of our beloved animals and plants.
