Korean Glass Noodles

The Korean dish of glass noodles or Tang Hoon (in Hokkien) is pretty delicious, photogenic and affordable for two struggling artists like me and Johnny Ong.. Johnny` was forever helpful, in not only driving me there. but also lifting the noodles with the awkward steel chopsticks for me to photograph.

I placed an American made Litepanels portable light at an angle to make the transparent glass noodles glow a bit. Stir fried glass noodles with vegetables and chicken is known as Jab Chae or sweet potato starch noodles at B Bab the Korean restaurant in Nu Sentral.

MMMBop

Funny how an almost 20 year old song stays fresh in your mind. Fresh like mint. I ordered a Mint Soda at the popular Korean casual cafe and they brought a glass of raw mint leaves and a can of Schweppes soda.

Plant a seed, plant a flower, plant a rose
You can plant any one of those
Keep planting to find out which one grows
It’s a secret no one knows
It’s a secret no one knows
Oh, no one knows
Mmmbop, ba duba dop
