Food. Food. Food.

Food, food, food. Presentation at the VSS is tomorrow. It is almost 1 am in the morning. Am I nervous? Yes. Is this normal? Of course. Hopefully, one day I will be able to deal with it and overcome my phobia, my fear. But, until then let's just talk about food. As you can see, I have snap a couple pics of food from my iPhone. Tonight, we went to KFC. It was bad, but we heard the chicken is very different, different in the sense that it is real chicken from the country side. Little did we know, it was. The chicken was a little bit tough and not fake white bleach. I felt that I did not consume massive amounts of hormones and other scary chemicals. So, I felt good. I can't believe I just justified my KFC experience in Cambodia. =P KFC was very interesting. A lot of people who eating there looked like they were from the upper class. It was not a surprise because I had that same experience in Pizza Hut in Beijing. In which that Pizza Hut was so classy and nice. But, besides that, we decided to go there because Justin had been craving KFC since we first saw it in Phnom Penh. So, tonight was the night. The results = not so bad.
But, besides that, Rothany, Jessica and I with the help of fellow travelers found an awesome restaurant called Mother in Law. Awesome name? I think so, but the menu was an awesome selection of foods. Foods that were all of the home cook meals that I was used to at home. We finally found a menu that not only had Banh Chiow (yellow pancakes), but also Khnom Pa Chok( Fish noodle soup) and Khnom Pa Chok Kari( Chicken curry noodle soup). Oh man, I had been craving for all these yummy, delicious foods. Oh my god. The street that we lived on is very touristy like and all the restaurant are catered for travelers. So they are stocked with burgers, fries and stuff like that. So that was the food that we have eaten for the past couple weeks, since it is close and we have a lot of work to do. This made the restaurant that we found just so delightful.
The food besides the ones on our street are all very good and delicious. Everything that is Khmer that I eat reminds me of home and all the awesome home cooked meals my mom would make.
Did you like this rant about food? Yes, I am nervous about the presentation. I always get myself worked up days before. So I am currently trying to prepare myself as best as I can and hopefully it will all go well. Cross your fingers for me? And maybe pray? =) The long awaited Friday has finally come. Saturday will be a rest day and from Sunday to Wednesday, I will be leaving for the Southern part of Takeo Province to do some fieldwork. So the next week will be a work filled week, more countryside and more fun times that I predict!
