Post-sugar buzz

I’m buzzing.

It is kind of annoying, I want to sleep but my body has a serious intolerance towards caffeine and perhaps sugar. The last few times I went out with friends at night I thought “whatever, I don’t care I’m ordering tea”. Bad idea. This time, I ordered an Ice-blended Chocolate, conveniently forgetting that cocoa has some amount of caffeine in it. Plus the drink was really sweet, it tasted like store-bought-brand chocolate ice-cream.

And that’s why I’m buzzing, I think.

I don’t know if it’s just that I have bad taste ordering drinks or the places I’ve been to just don’t have decent drinks or I’m picky. I’m just about to give up hope on having a decent cup of chocolate in Kuching when I suddenly remembered Hilton’s Cafe which serves really nifty hot chocolate that consists of steamed milk and rolls of dark chocolate on the side which you’re supposed to stir in. Yes, must go there before I leave Kuching. Plus, the price is about the same as those trendy watering hole places but what you get is so much more worth the money and calories.

Oh I love going to places where they serve tea in the pot and I’ll have an English Breakfast tea with lots of milk and a bit of sugar. But it is kinda weird having it like that, macam so auntie, or so I think. Actually, any nice cup of tea with milk is nice, whether it’s local, Hong Kong, Indian… Green tea’s nice too.

Wow, I ramble a lot when I’m buzzing.

And suddenly I’m hungry and thinking of food I can’t get. Like authentic kolo mee, laksa, char sieu bao, Teh C peng special (the real one, not ciplak one), cha kueh, grilled fish.. Ok maybe I should stop. No more rambling. Yea, stop.
