this feast is about a bunch of kampung ladies once upon a time all lived and grew up in different part of Malaysia, all with chinese background but now married to Dutch and called this country their adopted land.
when the ayam kapitan is being heated in the kitchen, the ladies are busy setting up the table...
while the 'tok panjang'/长桌 (in nyonya language means a feast for guests, with food laying on a long table) being lay out
and while the hostess putting the bouquet from us in a vase and set it on the side table in the garden...
when the guests started to arrive...
the bakpo/yuk kon/肉干 is on the BBQ set and satay waiting for its turn...
the one and only bbq chef of the day is busy with bbq-ing, and suddenly the tok panjang/长桌 is filled with food....
and most of the kampung ladies are drooling while standing beside the table, others already tug in to the food....
bakpo/yuk kon/肉干, almond salad, babi pangang spek/烧肉 (by yohannes), otak-otak, assorted satay, green curry chicken, nyonya bak chang/娘惹肉粽子(by me), bbq spare-ribs, sambal stuffed mackerel
chickpea salad, satay sauce, tiramisu, fruit salad, babi ponteh, ketumpat, ayam kapitan, condiments for nasi lemak, sambal ikan bilis, sausage roils
and what else would i say beside the feast is ready to BEGIN!!!
