Lady Godiva Oh Bless Me and My Chinese Lunch!
After having to endure chinese buffet (which mind you, wasn't bad) but you know, how good can chinese buffets get?- It was rather refreshing to have one which you can order a la carte. After the most AMAZING and mind you also most EXPENSIVE chinese sit down meal in my entire life in Jakarta with ayah (gawd of chinese cuisine lovers), this still isn't even close to that, but again, refreshing to have these asian fusion of flavours, in the UK, given the limited choices, and the fact that these chinese cooks get to make money from the english, who really have a long way to go from just black bean sauce and egg noodles.
Nevertheless, Warwick Malaysian Night brought me to this delightful little place in central Coventry, where I had the chance to eat, any type of noodles with any type of sauce with any type of fillings/ meat.
Fish in mushroom sauce with egg fried rice
Prawn and squid with szechuan fried egg noodles
Sloppy stir frieds have never tasted sooo good. Main ingredients, which I think, are essential in any chinese cooking, even those that are far (literally and gastronomically) from what we get in Authentic oriental China, is peanut/ sesame oil. I may be biased as I am a big fan of the latter, but the taste and smell of sesame oil makes all the different. Correct me if I am wrong but Ginger, pepper, and sesame oil is ALWAYS ALWAYS a good medley, black and green peppers or not!
