Mandi Time

This is the outside my favourite mandi shop in Madinah. It is about 10 minutes away from the mosque. FYI, mandi means lamb cooked in a special oven called tanoor served with rice
Tanoor. Underground oven fueled by firewood. Seen them use this too cook our meal during my last visit but this time the cook shooed me away.

We've seen lamb on the rocks, now it's chicken on the rocks. This is also very yummy.
A meal fit for a king. Add some salsa, green chillis and jarjil(a kind of rocket lettuce) and the meal is complete.
Close-up of chicken and lamb mandi. Makes my mouth water just looking at this. Why can't the mandi in Brunei be like this??

Breakfast time

Typical breakfast here, a bit of western, a bit of continental and a bit of arabic. I forgot that I had my camera with me, by then all the food was gone heheh Tried to contain myself, lots of other things to consume later, like mandi. *Yummy*

Roti kawin from JC last Sunday, fresh bread and lots of fillings. I wanted to try a bit of macro, getting the DOF right is tricky. I was using the 28-300 Tamron which has 1:2.9 macro setting.

Mushroom burger.. yummy. Taken in RMS Cafe in Gadong. Probably best value for money at the moment. I was so glad they extended the half-price promotion. Shouldn't eat there too often though, not too healthy. Focus was on the onions and the DOF was quite shallow.
