Dinner and Dessert in Malaysia


For dinner on Wednesday, our team went to Prawn Village in the town of Tumbun. We had, mantis prawns (below on my plate, and on the dish), coke :), crabs, regular prawns, soup, and other stuff I can't remember. It was very yummy. For dessert we ate durian (sp?). It is the third picture down. It is very stinky smelling, and not very yummy. The other restaurant patrons were not too happy we brought it but when you are a big company the management doesn't say no to a whole lot. The locals were thrilled that I tried it and not surprised that I did not like it. There was a delicious fruit that we had, thin skin, translucent sweet juicy sections.

John - you are a ton of fun. People love you because you are so sincerely interested in them and in ideas. Sounds like a true venture into a totally foreign culture! MOM
