Coconut Jelly and Prawns

Jelly Coconut

Initially i was suppose to take a photo of mine but due to unforseen circumstances, i only realized i forgot to photograph it right after i was done eating. Too bad i don’t have a clear shot of the jelly and this is the only picture i have before my sister asked me to buzz off.

The jelly of the coconut is actually the coconut water itself and this is done by removing the outer husk and left in the oven to roast. During the cooling period, the coconuts are placed in a cooling room and this is when the jelly is formed.

It’s best to be eaten there and then cause if you were to leave it in the car and finally return home after a few hours, it would turn sour. There’s no preservatives, all natural.

Angeline brought it home and some of it did turn sour when she and her family ate it the next day. Mine on the other hand was perfect as i ate it on the same day.

It’s RM 3.70 per coconut and it’s pandan coconut, just like the one at Abu Siti Lane but this is along Dato Keramat.

Earlier that day, Angeline and I met up with Richard and Emily over at mainland to have fresh water prawns for lunch at Sungai Acheh. I made a call to the owner prior to our arrival so that he can reserve 1.5kg for us. Initially Hugo was suppose to come but he had to ‘tutup kedai’. Apa lar lu

It has been like 3 years plus since i have came here and nothing has changed except for the price of the prawns. The last time i was there, it was about 63 ringgit per kilo and now it’s about 59 ringgit.

Since Emily, Richard and Angeline have no idea on what to order, i took charge. I asked for 750 grams of curry prawns and 750 grams of steamed prawns. We were then asked if we would like steamed rice or steamed bread to go with the prawns. We ordered 2 of each.

Some of you might ask, what’s so special about these prawns. It’s bigger than the normal ones you see in the market and the big ones can be slightly smaller than a lobster.

Eating

If any of you do go there, don’t forget to order their steamed bread. Really damn nice ! It’s so soft.

The place was really packed when our prawns arrived. If we were there earlier, Mr Lim, the owner would have gladly brought us back to the kitchen to show where he stores the prawns. A few years back when was here with my family, he showed my siblings how 2 of the giant prawns fought when he put them together in one tub. Moments after that, they were all covered in curry on my plate, lol.

After that Richard asked if there’s anything else nearby to eat and so i brought them for laksa and ice kacang.

ice kacang and laksa

laksa

DOF out  -_-!

We ended up at the wrong stall. There were 2 laksa stalls side by side like Penang Road ice kacang and after 3 years i totally forgot which one was the better one. The laksa here is a bit different because it has crackers in it. The stalls are situated at the Nibong Tebal town.

P/S: Have to build on this momentum to blog -_-! The pictures are ready but i always end up doing other things than blog, lol :P
