Day 3: Nong Jia Fan (农家饭)



















At the insistence of Mr Wang, we finally tried Nong Jia Fan ((农家饭) at a local inn. Perhaps we had zero expectation of the food (thanks to a handful of negative reviews), we found certain dishes really delish. :) We were glad we tried some local fare before leaving Luoping. :)

Ann, Tina & Lin went to the kitchen (located at the back of a double storey inn) to select what they wanna eat. :)

Corns & dried chillis are common ingredients for cooking in Luoping.

Every dish is freshly prepared on the spot. Hence you need to be patient for the meal to be served. It might had taken a little longer too because Mr Wang was supervising the A-yi in the kitchen to wash the veg, ingredients, bowls, plates etc over and over again. :))) He was concerned the four of us might not be able to stomach any bacteria or germs. Lol! :)))

While everyone was busy, Tina was running after the boy & rooster for some pic taking. :)

The surroundings of the inn is very pretty, making the place a perfect lunch venue. ;)

Canola look pretty in yellow. We wondered how they tasted like. :) Well, the stir-fried canola were delightfully fresh & sweet. :) Thumbs up. Mmmmmmm...

The fried jasmine egg was our second fav. It was so fragrant & there was a subtle jasmine aftertaste with every bite of the egg. *.*

The hanging sausages in the kitchen might look disgusting. But when they were served in plate, they looked presentable. :) More importantly they tasted SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD! :)

The stir-fried minced pork with corns was average. Only one word could describe the soup with mixed veg - Bland. It was basically just putting various types of veg in boiling water. : I

Our lunch in Luoping was fantastic. We would enjoyed it much better if Mr Wang did not rush us. Ann quickly stuffed another piece of sausage in her mouth before we stood up to leave.

For the next few days, I kept asking Mr Wang why he needed to rush us everyday...with no reply. I wasn't expecting an answer anyway. I was just hinting to him not to rush us. ;)
