Peeping Sausages & Western Kebab pesanan Deviana
Pesanan snack pagi ini. Dipesan oleh Deviana. Jenisnya Western Kebab dan Peeping Sausages.. :). Deviana baru pertama kali pesan snack di aku, sebabnya beberapa waktu yang lalu dia ikut meeting yangn snacknya pesan dari The Tiny Bites dan jadi pengen order untuk meetingnya sendiri. Puji Tuhan, untuk promosi tanpa biaya ini :)
Karena pesanan teman kantor, aku bawa memakai kotak plastik, sehingga tidak hambur pakai kerdus kue. Bukan hanya karena harga kerdus kue mahal, tapi aku juga ingin go green, save the earth lah ceritanya, sehingga tidak banyak pohon yang ditebang hanya untuk supply permintaan kerdus kue, yang kalau di kantorku saja, dalam sehari bisa puluhan kerdus jumlahnya. Dengan membawa snack pesanan menggunakan kotak plastik, effortnya tentu lebih banyak, karena harus mengambil lagi kotaknya dari tempat pemesan lalu mencuci kotak kotak itu, tapi hatiku jauh lebih nyaman daripada melihat tumpukan kerdus dalam tong sampah.
Sepele, tapi mudah mudahan bisa berarti dalam membantu melestarikan bumi kita ini :)
Anyway, terimakasih ordernya ya, Dev... :)
Orderan Snack Meeting hari ini...
Setelah kemarin jungkir balik dengan 7 macam pesanan snack, malamnya aku bener bener terkapar kecapekan. Pulang kerja cuci perabotan yang aku pakai sebelumnya, trus makan dan istirahat bentar. Waktu ngeloni Cinta, aku set alarm jam 2:30. Apa daya, jam 4:30 baru bangun :D
Tapi nggak papa, pesanan untuk hari ini tidak terlalu ribet. Yang pesan masih dua orang, Meita dan Monika tapi jenisnya sama...yaitu :
Fruit Salad yang sausnya sudah aku siapkan di kulkas, motong buah buahannya dibantu mbak Yanti yang tadi pagi datang early :
Western Kebab yang kulitnya hanya tinggal manasin dan ngisinya cepet..:
Dan Cheesy Cupcake yang nggak ribet bikinnya :
Dan yang jelas...karena mbak Yanti sudah masuk...jadi ntar sore nggak perlu cuci perabot dapur lagi :D
Terimakasih Monika dan Meita...tunggu tagihannya ya...belum sempet nulis nih :)
Snack Meeting CA
Pesanan snack untuk meeting CA hari ini. Western Kebab, Puding Coklat dan Smoked Beef Risoles.
Tadi malam, setelah ngadon kulit risoles, aku diamkan dulu sambil ngeloni Cinta. Tapi aku ikut ketiduran. Sudah set alarm mau bangun jam 2 pagi...apa daya, waktu alarm bunyi jam 2 kurang, aku matikan dengan pikiran mau nambah tidur 30 menit lagi...nggak tahunya kebablasan sampai jam 4:30...*panik*.
Langsung meloncat turun dari ranjang dan gedubrakan masak. Snacknya mau dipakai jam 8 pagi. Puji Tuhan kelar...walaupun terpaksa dandan di mobil... :)
Sebenarnya yang pesen juga minta aku buatin snack untuk siangnya, tapi aku nggak sanggup....capeeee... :D
Makasih orderannya ya, Bune...
Al-Safa, Rusholme, Manchester
The curry mile is a bit of a misnomer these days. A cursory glance up and down the Wilmslow Road in Rusholme will tell you that a rather significant minority (if not the majority) of the eateries on the strip are now from the Middle East rather than the Indian subcontinent. If the restaurant names are to be believed then I spotted Lebanese, Iranian, Palestinian, Iraqi, Egyptian, Afghan and Syrian places in a five minute wander. This is probably a good thing as rumour has it that most of the curry houses are actually a bit rubbish.
One of these Middle Eastern places is where I was headed, as I fancied a quality kebab. Following the recommendations of Flavours of Manchester I ended up in Al-Safa and ordered a single Kobeda (which I think are Iranian kebabs). As an aside, if you like curry, kebabs, beer, Manchester or any combination of those things than I strongly recommend you read Flavours of Manchester. I haven't been let down yet by any of their recommendations.
When the kebab arrived I was rather glad I hadn't ordered the double (which I nearly had) as the single was huge and far better looking in real life than the photo's on the menu display. The bread was light and crisp. The salad was fresh, varied and good quality, far from the limp afterthought it often is on kebabs. The meat itself was nicely chargrilled but of slightly dubious quality (ok lamb taste but a bit processed), and the accompanying chilli sauce was fiery.
At £3.50 it was a bargain. Great bread, great salad, great sauce. Meat not quite so great but what do you expect at those prices.

Snack Meeting orderan Procurement
Dua hari ini aku mengerjakan pesanan snack meeting untuk Procurement.
Hari pertama, 5 January 2011, pesannya tadinya cuma 2 macam, yaitu Rolled Sausages dan Apple Tarlet...eh, tanggal 4 sore, ada tambahan Salad Buah dan Muffin corned keju. Aku coba untuk menolak, tapi yang pesen ngotot, katanya biar tagihannya jadi satu dan gampang untuk proses reimbursementnya..hihih....ya wis..bungkusss....
Salad buah sebelum diberi strawberry...agak agak pucet ya?
Jadi aku tambahkan strawberry sebagai pemanis..
Hari kedua, 6 January, 4 macam snack, yakni Macaroni Schotel dan Fruit Pie untuk pagi, sedangkan siangnya Kebab dan Pudding Kelapa Muda. Puding Kelapanya aku nggak sanggup karena nggak punya stock kelapa muda dan kalau mau beli di langgananku waktunya nggak cukup, jadi aku lempar order ke mbak Riza Sahal, teman di NCC dan Foodmonster... makasih mbak Riza ya...puddingnya ennnaaakkk... :)
Jujur, capeeee banget..hihih..masih kebawa mood liburan sih, jadi masih kurang semangat..semalam sambil nungguin oven, sampai ketiduran berkali kali...untuk bunyi timerku lumayan shocking, jadi nggak sampai bablas..
Makasih ordernya ya, Bu.. :)
Feng Mao: Mutton, Cumin, Fire.
Feng Mao had been on my to-try list ever since I read about their mutton kebab in cumin galore on FoodGPS and LA Weekly.
Feng Mao is labeled as a Korean-Chinese cuisine, is located in K-town with Korean signage and menu, but the owner Jing Cu Hwa and her husband are actually from China. They hail from Jilin province in Northern China, which borders Korea and explains the heavy Korean influence (technically it also borders Russia, too).
The full name of the restaurant is Feng Mao Mutton Kebab, so obviously we have to get the mutton kebabs.
The meat is covered with spices, including chili powder and cumin. This is a Northern Chinese dish after all, so you can actually find similar lamb kebabs at various Mongolian style hot pot places, like Happy Sheep, but those don't hold a candle to Feng Mao's tender and succulent mutton skewers. For one thing, mutton > lamb!
Just like any other Korean restaurants, they serve pretty typical banchans here, but it also included a typical Chinese one: boiled peanuts!
We love our boiled peanuts.
We also ordered the beef skewers, and while they're also pretty good, the mutton was much better as they were more tender and had a stronger flavor.
An order of quail will get you a whole butterflied quail.
All the skewers are grill-it-yourself on the charcoal grill they provide on each table (though they'll come by and check to see if you're messing up :P).
There's one more thing to note before you eat your grilled skewers. The heap of cumin-dominated spice on that little plate next to each one of you.
Oh, you know what to do ...
Feng Mao also has a list of cooked dishes, though I didn't try any, along with skewers of mutton kidney and bull penis. Yes, that's right. The adventurous might want those. For me that night, though, although I at first wanted to try the other skewers like beef and quail and enjoyed them, I mainly kept thinking: "man, those mutton kebabs were good. I should've just gotten more mutton kebabs."
