many food served either too early or too late

too early

*stinkheads



Stinkheads, or tepa, traditional dish of the Yupik Eskimos made with fermented whitefish heads. The heads and fish innards are placed in a wooden barrel, covered in burlap, and placed in the ground for as long as a month, or even longer. It's then dug up and eaten raw and frozen.


 artinya : ini adalah kepala ikan yang ada di pengalengan yang udah lama ~




*drunken shrimp


This popular Chinese dish isn't for the faint hearted. Forget cooking, these fresh-water shrimp are often eaten alive -- after they're marinated in a strong liquor, which stuns them. 


: liat tuh kuahnya terlihat seperti darah kan ?



*shiokara


This Japanese dish looks, well, interesting. It's made from the guts of various marine animals that are heavily salted and left to ferment for up to a month. It has a strong flavor; even natives are known to turn their noses up at it. Often, diners down a serving in one gulp, followed by a shot of straight whiskey.



*prahok
Nicknamed "Cambodian cheese," Prahok is a fermented fish paste that can take years to prepare. Fresh fish are ground and left in the sun for a full day, then salted and sealed in salt-filled jars. It can be eaten after just 20 days, but the higher quality stuff is left to sit for up to three years.










*thousand year old eggs 
OK, so these eggs aren't actually a thousand years old, but they have been preserved in a mixture of clay, ash, salt, lime and rice hulls for anywhere from a few weeks to several months. The result is a brown, jelly-like white and a creamy, almost green yolk.










*hakarl




It takes a strong stomach to order hakarl, a Icelandic delicacy of shark that's been let ferment for four to five months. Even natives admit the dish, which smells strongly of ammonia, is an acquired taste.




*balutt
Balut, a popular street food in Southeast Asia, looks like a grocery-variety egg on the outside, but it may make you squirm once the shell is cracked open. Within is a fertilized duck embryo, developed often to the point of having a pointy beak and feathers. Diners who enjoy this delicacy eat it boiled, often seasoned with ingredients like chili, garlic and vinegar. 


*unlaid eggs

See those orange balls? Those are unlaid eggs, or unfertilized eggs from butchered hens. Considered a delicacy by some, a 2007 New York Times article said they had a "deep, concentrated flavor, a hint of sweetness, but not overly rich."

Hanya Sebuah Bayangan

Kota Kelahiran, 23 Mei 2016 Sore hari selepas pulang kantor, Neechan berjalan-jalan ke area pusat perbelanjaan di kota kelahirannya itu. Sambil melepas lelah, ketika menyebrang jalan di kawasan itu, Neechan melihat sekumpulan anak sekolah yang asyik mengabadikan momen mereka di lampu yang bertuliskan "I'm in Love Ngalam". Apa mungkin mereka akan menemukan jodohnya di Kota Tempe? ataukah Tuhan mempertemukan mereka di tempat itu? Neechan pikir Hanya Tuhan yang mengerti semuanya. Yang jelas, mereka tampak bahagia dan tak ada satupun yang terlihat baper. Sedangkan Neechan? hanya tersenyum, jikalau ada pangeran Lemper di sisinya, mungkin saja kisah itu akan ada, bahkan lebih dari itu, bakal banyak kenangan disana. Berlanjut berjalan melalui eskalator, melihat ke arah pintu masuk di kawasan pusat perbelanjaan. Neechan melihat rasa sepi yang ada disekitarnya, maklum saja hanya sendirian ke tempat itu tanpa ditemani seorang pun. Bahkan sempat ditanya oleh pengunju...
