yummy 4: prawn tom yam soup

good morning
though it is literally 4 in the morning and the fact that i am STUDYING..
it kills me man knowing that study at this late hour is not productive at all.
damn i got too much silly problems to settle in the study week.might as well call it a HELL WEEK instead..

everyone seems to find some ways to release their stress right now.a friend of mine done movie-marathon.
others had shopping yo~
for me,EATING is the best ways possible.

i just want to share you my experience in CENTRAL MARKET food court.
usually this place is known to attract foreigners as it sold variety of local unique products such as batik,kebaya and all.
me??

im not doing the shopping.it just that i had to settle a problem regarding our ''i love UM'' t-shirt that has been dragged too long.i had came to this place for almost three days in a row now.blimey!!
it cause a lot of energy,time and a headache..and my suggestion for all who want to design a shirt,please stay away from CM!!you better find a supplier with printing capabilities and not just an ordinary middle-man.it suck to get yourself into problems afterward..

the good thing is that..
i got the chance to taste its food court's delicacies.
the ambiance there is good enough to attract ongoing tourists.it is not the run-down food court you found in the worker's eating place.no no.

i went to CM today with miejah and we would like to try mini wok cuisine.it just my first time eating in a mini wok.i ordered myself a prawn tom yam soup (RM7.50) while miejah had herself a kuey teow kungfu(RM7.50).

seems it is an unexpected food review,i didnt prepared myself with any camera.the photo is taken from google this time.
what is the verdict?
the tom yam soup is cooked poorly that it leaves the prawn stale's smell in the soup.and the prawn is not fresh anymore..prawn can be a marvelous or worst selection the way it is cooked.and mini wok served an ordinary prawn tom yam soup..not to mention the soup just have two prawns in it.i had to ordered a fried sunny-side egg just to finish my remaining rice.

the kuey teow kungfu is much better.
the kuey tiow itself is crispy with a combination of soft egg.the soup has enough flavor and it smells good.it takes no problem for miejah to finish it..pity me~~

and lastly,we had an ice cream toast as our dessert and lemon tea to quench our thirst..
i have a good time enjoying my dessert there..

ambience: 6/10.you would enjoy its authentic-styled decor
price: 9/10.affordable
verdict: should have choose tom yam at the thai corner.dont bother to order weird food choice in mini wok the next time..

this utter disappointment just leave me craving for a good prawn tom yam soup..
lets go for FOOD HUNTING!!!
haha
