Kacang Pool Bangi

Orang kata, kalau ke JB jangan lupa cuba beberapa menu utama mereka, sup tulang merah, zz sup tulang, mee rebus dan kacang pool. Paling famous Kacang pool Hj Larkin.

Sebelum ke JB, sekitar minggu ke 2 may haritu, Azie ada ternampak stall dengan banner Kacang Pool dideretan stall2 lain sekitar jalan keluar Hosp Azzahrah. Di kaki lima jalan tersebut memang ada banyak stall makanan. Street food people.. Street food.. I love street food. Tapi masa tu ada hal lain nak settle jadi tak dan singgah pon. Dh bisik dlm hati, i should try this in JB.

Sadly, our so called jjcmJB was not so jjcm sebab kami xsempat pon merasa macam2 makanan utk memuaskn hawa nafsu makan kami sebab kekangan masa. Dear husband refuse utk merasa kacang pool selepas frust tak dapat mencari briyani gam kambing yang diidamkan. Kedai yang dicari was closed on that day. So sad but true, mood kami untuk jjcm hilang macam tu aje. Kecewa.

Harini.. Lepas hantar husband. Perut berdentum2 kelaparan. Tiba2 tangan gatal nk google KACANG POOL BANGI .. dan paling best mmg ada pon. Ada beberapa blog yg suggest try makan dkt Rahsia Cafe. Tanpa berlengah masa. Ku lawan rs mengantuk drive ke Seksyen 15, Bangi dan terus mencari restoran yg dikatakan. Tak susah pon mencari. Masuk simpang sejurus selepas Petronas, dalam 50meter, belok kanan. Dan Rahsia Cafe betul2 disebelah kanan. Cornet lot.

Disebabkan tak sabar nak merasa kacang pool. I forgot to take the cafe's photos. As well as the location surrounding. Thats happen when you soooo hungry.

"kopi ais satu, dan kacang pool 1 telur jangan lembik ye"

Ha.. Dapat je makanan.snap sekali. Slurp slarp slurp.. Nomnomnom.. Makan sepuasnye. Walaupon ada yang kata tidak sesedap di JB, takpa.. Sebab tak pernah rasa yg dkt JB. Maka ni pon dh ckup sedap bg azie. Puas. Kuah agak cair, tp satisfied.. Licin...

Down to memory lane, sebenarnye, my lust or should i say my crave for kacang pool had been since i came to visit Singapore many many years back. Was it 2005-2006 or earlier. I couldnt remember much. (Sign of aging😱😥) that was the 2nd trip, and my Mak angkat showed me around Singapore and said " u must try kacang pool bcs it was the best breakfast in singapore". But.. Sadly.. The best best kacang pool  in singapore was closed that time (tak de rezeki) so sebab tu. I dont have chance to try it. Altho i've been to singapore like 4-5times i guess, but never once i got the chance to try it. Pity right? I know. 😩

Victoria Sandwich Cake

Alkisah sandwich cake ni bermula dari zaman belajar dulu. Sakinah Sallehuddin aka kynah selalu jugak buatkn utk azie n kengkawan lain masa kitorg datang rumah dia. Zaman tu VSC ni tak laa sefemes sekarang. Like today semua orang pon nak VSC. Trending katanya.

So masa first time merasa cake ni terus jatuh hati. Kyna version of sandwich cake is butter cake layer with jam and sugar. Yes sugar. It made the cake crunchier.. ANd addictive to me. The more sugar the crunchier it be.. And by this timw im wiping my saliva off!! (Kyna u better make me one of ur alltime fav vsc) Maybe because at that time i never try other vsc so this Kyna-VSC so killing that it make me craved for more.

But truth be told. Kyna is not that kind of person who is sooooo rajin to bake and especially cook.. Hahahaha.. So her most-wanted-vsc-to-die-for is so difficult to catch. Mintaklah berapa kali pon. Bebel la berapa kali pon. Upahla apa pon. If she lazy. She means it.  I still remember come all the way from Shah Alam to her house and force her to bake the cake on the stop. Making her bake out of her keinginan is a big mistake. The cake did not rise to the right size 😑😞😭

But one thing for sure. It still taste so good. 😋
And that was the last memory i had of Kyna-most-wanted-vsc because after that she refuse to bake again.😖

So today i sent her this same birthday cake that my sis bake me on my 28th birthday. A Modern VSC with full of whipped cream double layer with jam.. 😍😍😍.. The cake was so good, delicious and so sweet. (Tq for all the wishes.. Im so touched by how many of u that wished me..and remember my birthday still Feeling retis)  and i told kyna how i miss her vsc. So she replied an unbelievable answer to my hues. She said to make a plan and invite others to her house and so we can  make a bake-vsc-dayh.. Oh la la.. This really made my day. But still this plan is still not confirm because im away a week before ramadhan. N ramadhan is just two week away. So no more weekend before ramadhan. I really hope that this plan will somehow happen. Because i miss her version of sandwich cake so much. Hihi.

Ok settle membebel. Just doakan that kyna will make a better plan for my vsc.. Hihi😍😍😍

So this is the cake. That my sister asked me of what cakes i want her to bake for my birthday.. A VSC with lotsa cream, and strawberry. But because strawberry is difficult to find in Nilai. So i forgive  her. Hihi. Tq adek for such a cake. I hope u can be a good baker. Always learns to be the best kayh. Much love. Ur sister.

A small cake cutting celebration by my family. With uncompleted family member. Thank you sooo much mak..adek.. Abg ju.. Abah.. N my little family.. Husband and dhea.. 😍😍😍
