My ‘Makeshift’ Chicken Cordon Bleu

If my friend hadn’t asked me about how to make chicken with some cheese, I would probably have never posted this. So here it goes. This was more than a year ago – before my return to Indonesia. I was still in Haiti and was on a completely different diet: the ‘seefood’ diet (I see food and I eat it).

Din Tai Fung

So back to Soto. I was meeting up with friends at Pasaraya just to have lunch. It was one of those ‘city tour’ day, where I do all sorts of errands in one day so that I don’t have to get out of the house too often. The traffic is just too bad, and I can’t be bothered having to spend lots of time commuting, especially since I have now moved to a place out of the city (since I’ve been back from Haiti).
