Past Transgressions : I Am A Carb Addict

Well, it has been 40 days today since restarting the carnivore way of eating. So today, I show you some more of my past eats (April/May/June 2023) where I simply went loco with my carb intake.


Now, what's this? It's the dry beef noodles at Pho Vietz


The soup consisted of beef slices and beef balls. The meat was dryish and a bit tough. It was gamey too. Ugh! As for the soup, it was mild tasting and nothing to get excited about.


The noodles and minced beef with sauce was just OK. Not something I would want to eat again. Hang on, there was something else.


Ah, side order of pork patties hee..hee...


I found that the flour content was a lot more than meat and it was not as good as before. Cutting cost I guess. tsk!


Another day I went to Two Sons Bistro. Not my favorite place but just to try them out after a long time.


I had coffee and nasi kerabu with ayam percik. The coffee was so so.


As for the nasi kerabu, it was all right but I did not like the chicken. It was simply fried chicken doused with percik sauce. That's now how ayam percik should be. Other items on the menu were not exciting, so not coming back.


I ate at Pho Vietz a lot. I don't usually order sweet drinks but I made an exception that day. It was a fruit tea and it was rather refreshing.


Fortunately, it wasn't too sweet. 


I was hopelessly addicted to the flat rice rolls. It was really delicious. That's why I kept ordering it.


I also enjoyed the Bahn Mi. The one with lemongrass chicken filling and pickled vegetables was outstanding. I have to admit that I love carbs. I love carbs too much. I am a carb addict wahahaha!!! As of right now, no, I am not having any carb cravings. Touch wood!


I passed by Salad Atelier and looked at their beautifully presented Meal of the Day.


You bet I could have walloped that bowl of chicken pasta but no, Salad Atelier and I are no longer friends.

  2. Carb doesn't interested you anymore. Lol. But the Vietnamese beef soup sure doesn't sound good.

    Long time I didn't have basi kerabu. Now busy with shop, I hardly have time venturing and trying new eateries. Lol

  3. Same thing here! I can't remember where I had ayam percik and it was such a let down - the sauce and everything was so disappointing. Perhaps I tapao-ed it home but I simply can't remember where I got it from. Never again!

    1. Quite risky to buy this sort of dishes unless if we know that they can prepare it the right way.

  5. I am not into Viet pho, maybe my son ordered this much too often already... but I am into Bahn Mi provided that the bread is still warm and not cold n tough. So far, I am still a carbs fan, still friending with them. hahahaa...
