Size does matter!!!

So what are you thinking about?!

I am talking about food okay...... ;p

For the same money we are paying for the food in US vs Malaysia... the meal size is a huge gap!

I am talking about 1 to 1 currency conversion...for example, you are earning RM3k in Malaysia and you spend RM10 for meal vs you are earning USD3k in US and spend USD10 for the same meal.....the plate you will get in Malaysia might be big, but the food portion is small, just some pieces of chicken meat maybe... but for US meal, the food portion you are getting is damn huge, so generous that it is more than enough for 2 persons' dinner...

See this... Popcorns!!!!

Most youngsters love popcorns... and popcorns are a must for couples going for a movie...

But back in Malaysia, I seldom buy popcorns...

Why? 1st, it doesn't taste really good and not crispy enough, toooooo expensive for sucha small box costing around 15bucks or more...

Nahhhhh!!!! See this???!!!! This is US popcorns!!! For few bucks, this is what you get...eat till you drop!!!! This popcorn size is 5 times the size you get in Malaysia.....

Not only that..... look carefully at the popcorn.... each and every popcorn is a full whole rounded big kernel; very crispy, juicy, buttery sweet and you will get addicted!!!

US popcorn is definitely the best I have tried... !!!

Nahh.... look closerrrr.......

Frankly I haven't seen Malaysia selling big perfect rounded juicy crispy popcorn before...
Even if there is... I doubt it would be in a reasonable price range and would not be in a generous portion...

Malaysia popcorn industry really has to improve their food quality and we need to improve our value to money...

About other food......

Even Chinatown in US, the Chinese restaurants are offering very generous food size...

This is a plate of combo for 2 persons for 10bucks in the States....

Back in Malaysia... this is probably the food size for 6-8 persons... and definitely be >30bucks...

See the big and thick pieces of pork meat...

Malaysia style... you will just a paper thin piece of small pork meat which cost you the same bucks.. That pice of meat you see in the pic, Malaysia hawkers and butchers can slice it into 4 thin pieces and sell them as 4 pieces.... -___-'''

Let's talk about appetizers...

It is very common in the States that their salad appertizers are free flow... eat all you can.. not to mention the huge portion of fresh salad that they serve.....

hey.. if you can finish this salad appetizer, you can ask for replenishment... and I can assure you, the salad is really good!!

I did also took this pic of a special appetizer @Pappadeaux... fried alligator's meat...

You can just see the portion of just appetizer, so generously big..

Malaysia's appetizer? Nahh.. not even interested to order any...

This is Bone Daddy's, typical ever famousTexas BBQ Steak Bar..

Alot of customers... Alot of happy and satisfied customers.... Why??

Not to mention that all the food are super delicious and you will crave for it, the portion is gigantic... I ordered roasted chicken... and I got this... *___*

The whole chicken....

Guess what you get in Malaysia for the same order.... ??

One drumstick...

Asian food in US...

Frequently, we were frustrated thinking of where to go for dinner... what to eat...and got headache; end up simply eat something and that's it!

Pity... we don't have much good food around here...the food here is small in portion yet somewhat expensive, and taste so-so.. just to stop the hunger and done with a meal...

This makes me really missed those Asian food in Austin.. We have better Asian food in Austin than here... can you believe it?


The Chinese Mixed Vege plate we had in a Hong Kie restaurant, thumbs up!

Oh damn I miss you........... Hong Kong style bbq roasted chicken..... one of the best-est !!!

See the huge piece of 'Cha Siew' roasted pork!?? This is something we can never find here in Malaysia... sad to say....

Oh boy I love it... the pork is tender, very juicy yet not oily at all, I can have 3 bowls of rice with this plate......genuine Hong Kong style best-est roasted pork!

How I missed the Chinese food there.....Every evening, you can see a long queue of starving people waiting outside the restaurant, just for this... including me...

This is the 'Shrimp TomYam Soup' from a Thai restaurant.... true spicy and sour, authentic Thai style... very yummy, just nice complimented with the Siam rice...

The Thai style fried pineapple rice, delicious! Huge plate that can fulfill 2 person's portion, definitely worth the money!!

This is the typical Chinese meal, really mouth-watering tasty; a 2 person meal that can really makes you full.

Ohh... talking about the US Asian 'DimSum'.... one of the best ever.... I kept eating until I forgot to take more photos....

The 'Har Kao' (shrimp) is very fresh and big in size, finger licking good!

This is the ever-popular Cantonese ‘皮蛋’porridge...

Oooh.. that was simply yummy..!!!

The 'pau' overflowing with juicy roasted pork meat inside....trust me, 3 of them is just not enough!!

Can you imagine we finished all of them!?

The food is simply awesome!!! I love it!
