Spent a wonderful evenin last nite wif the MDIS bachelorettes along with Rafeeqah, Hafiz, Dee's bf & my bf at Sakura International Buffet. Food was pretty good, lotsa seafood...hot plate style, deep fried style, tempura style, Chinese style, salad style...but I did not really go ga-ga over any of the food..despite bein the last one still eatin while the rest were KO. hee...it's not cheap ok, i gotta maximise my $26 and since bf doesn't really fancy seafood, i gotta eat his share too but it was such a waste that i missed out on the lobster & crayfish! Pffft! Dessert was nice too esp. the Marble Cheesecake, I wanted to have more than one piece of it but gosh, i was juz too full!
The gatherin we had was actually to celebrate the birthdays of 2 of our friends... Missy Liz & Mr Fyz but somehow, it was also an eventful nite for bf & i. It was the first time that we both..ate Oysters in the 24 years of our lives! Hehe...we both stared at how Hafiz ate his oysters earlier and throughout the few rounds of getting food on our plates, bf kept challengin me to try out those gooey lookin things. I told him no yet he kept insisting. Fine...so i told him, ok if i try...he gotta try too. He made excuses bla bla...but finally succumbed and we both picked the smallest that were on the ice bed. We added quite abit of tabasco sauce before headin back to our seats and then, it was the showdown. I remembered Hafiz said earlier that we SHOULDN't CHEW the oysters cos it'll taste horrible, so we gotta swallow it whole. Ok...so by the count of 3, i got the oyster in my mouth and i NEARLY CHOKED myself with the damn oyster!!
I spit it out and turned to bf...he downed his oyster already...Ooops!! ok ok, bein the graceful competitor i took in the oyster again, bite it twice and swallowed!! I cringed at every bite to anticipate anythin gooeyly awful..but hmmm it didn't taste that bad. In fact, I tasted mostly the lemon & tabasco flavours...but the chokin feelin is still stuck here in my throat! Yurrgghh!! I couldn't stop laughin at the ordeal we put ourselves through, it was utter Lunacy 
!!
U WON mesye....Obviously, Fear is NOT a factor for u....*LoL*
Oh btw...thank u Rafeeqah for recordin the historic moment eh. Hehehe and the rest, for watchin us made a fool of ourselves...hehehehe
Raw oysters are way cool, but I like bearded clams better:)
ReplyDeleteCongrats to both of u having oysters.. And yes u gotta swollow it but apparently ur throat is still virgin! LOLx!! Well, I warned u that if u bite/chew u will taste the gooey-ness and stale taste and it might just put u off first timers.
ReplyDeleteWhat I loved about Galveston and New Orleans-before they got wiped out-you could buy a DOZEN raw oysters for $5.00 USD, comes with horseradish and crackers. Could'nt touch that out West for under $10.00
ReplyDeleteSophie..i shall never forget the oyster challenge..hahahaha..it was fun :)
ReplyDeleteKudos to u and Iyuan for the challenge, i'm sure u two would do well in Fear Factor Couple Challenge
the taste was not as bad as i imagined actually...i tot it'll be more stinky & raw...maybe cos the oysters we had was fresh?? or too masked by the lemon & tabasco sauce..hmmm...
