ANNOUNCEMENT OF WINNER
The cook for the meal is QUAY LO
and the winner is Arthur Wee
I love to start my day laughing! Today, my son Nick shared a video titled “The tale of two brains” which I would love to share with you all. This is hilarious and yet so familiar and TRUE! After watching the video with my Quay Lo, he commented that we should watch this video each time before we start an arguement. LOL!

Now, tell me you did not laugh watching it. Surely we all recognize that the inter-relationships of men & women have been a main theme of comedy for a long time. What makes this comedian special is his comic delivery skills, and his reflections of truth, so familiar to us. In other words, with comic skills like timing, word emphasis, body language, and facial features, he delivers that splendid comical moment where we get to laugh at ourselves, and trust me, there is nothing quite so funny.
Yes, men and woman are very different but if no difference, how? We know the difference is a valid construction of preserving the species. But how about preserving our sanity? The differences extend into all parts of our normal lives and routines. In fact I read an article that even with cooking, men and women
approach things quite differently. You might want
to go to this link and read more. The article gives an insightful observation about the difference between men and woman through the art & science of cooking. One significant difference is; (quote) “Women
chefs cook with their hearts and souls, while male chefs cook with their head
and their private parts.” Go ahead, I know you are going to click the link now. Don't worry, this will be here when you get back. And when you do I will have a little challenge for you.
So how about having some fun and playing a little guessing game? Who did you think cooked
the dishes below by looking at the photos. Quay Lo or Quay Po? The first
person who guesses right will get a surprise gift. Guessing will closed at 12 midnight on 3rd March 2013. The winner will be announced on Monday, 4th March 2013.
Here are the hints:
It is a Japanese fusion dinner. Appetizer was grilled
scallop and cold soba with dashi . The main dish that followed was a duo scampi of salmon & prawn, with
cabbage and carrot salad with sesame, ginger and sweet sauce dressing. Each seafood element was done perfectly.
Eyewwwww! Males cook with their private parts? Now, I would never want to eat anything Quay Lo cooks. Muahahahahaha!!!! I think Quay Lo cooked those especially the last one - men likes their food slightly charred. Right?
ReplyDeleteArthur, hehehehe, do you cook with your private parts too? Muahaha, when I come visit you again, please ask Lucy to cook for I will not eat what you cook lah!! LOL! I can't tell you who cook the meal yet. Will Announce the winner next Monday. Wait ar!!
DeleteQuay Po, I am going to guess that it was you who cooked it :) By the way the top link is supposed to link to a video right? But it is the same link as the article on difference between male and female chefs :)
ReplyDeletePhong Hong, thanks for spotting the wrong link. I fixed already. Thanks for guessing but will announce the winner next Monday. Let others have a chance to guess to so we all have some fun. hehe
DeleteI guess I am disallowed from making a guess. It will be interesting to see whhat the total guesses in each column might be. Good one Darling.
DeleteArthur, I guess you and I better go shopping for utensils lah. LOL
Yes Darling, you are disallowed. I am looking forward to see more readers and friends to play the guessing game. Arthur haa a one track mind, when he saw "male chefs cook with their heads and private parts". Cheeky Cheeky! hahaha

ReplyDeleteThanks for guessing. Stay tune for the winner next Monday.
DeleteI think I can't guess either since I already know the answer.....
ReplyDeleteYes, you can't, you already know the answer. hehe
DeleteAlso, read the articles. If competing the generalization then my cooking might be perceived as 'male' judging by the never subtle use of spice, heavier flavour and not so precise plating. Lol
ReplyDeleteI am sure it does not apply across the board:D No you are to feminine to be mistook as a male chef!! hahaha
DeleteLove that video, so true and that's why I often leave my man alone watching TV
