Chilli Mussels..??..Anyone..??

Yummmmyyy....

Mussel: A mussel is a bivalve mollusc that can be found in lakes, rivers, creeks, intertidal areas, and throughout the ocean. The saltwater mussels (family Mytilidae) and freshwater mussels (family Unionidae) are not thought to be closely related and are grouped in different subclasses, despite considerable similarities in appearance

yea...thought so...don't you just love GOOGLE??


Conca's serves the best chili mussels in the whole perth...
actually..i dunno...
conca's is the only place i have been for mussels..ehehe...well...there's some other places of course but i cannot remember the name of those restaurants. But anyway..Conca's Chilli Mussels Rulezzz...!..

This cafe is located approximately 2 KM from Normat St. ( the place we stay)...no..i'm just kidding...i dunno how far it is..but its near enough for us to get there by foot.

I don't take chili or anything spicy..ermm..ok..i cannot take spicy food..( yea yea..call it what you want pussy...wussy...fag...drag...i don't give a shit..at least i'm man enought to tell and admit it..)

But why chili mussels in conca's then since you cannot take spicy food?

well..surprisingly..the chili mussels in concas its not spicy at all...well..yea..its looks red as if some 5 kilos of chilis been in there but once u taste it...hmm....not spicy..wow..magic..

actually its the way they cook it..

we usually crave for chili mussels at a cold night..or sometimes when we are out at conca's for coffee...we will simply order a small portion of chili mussels...just to have something to bite...and the price is reasonable....YAY...!!

on a cold winter night..

Juls: *watching TV..*
Je: *watching TV..*
Me: *watching TV..*
#3: *strolling in cirle in the kitchen with baby-h & baby-p..*
David Thamb: * watching TV..* - wait...this is not right...ohh sorry...it was Merv..

Merv: *watching #3 strolling in circle..*
neighbour: FREAK..!!!!!...

Je: *got frighten and pissed in her pants..*..eh..who said that??...scared me only..oh darn it..i wet my pants again...
Juls: aiyahh...its just the neighbour lar...must have saw #3 strolling around again lar...eh eh..quickly go change ur panty and pants lar...ur piss is soaking the sofa lar..
Me: .......

Yup...among all of us...Jelita is the one that can be easily scared...second comes Juls..

minutes later..

Je: eh eh..how about we go Conca's for some hot tea and some really hot chili mussels?
Juls: eh eh..can also...i love the lipton tea there being made by that fat fella who sweats not stop..
Me: Juls...ain't it the same..?
Juls: Mr Chan..no...somehow it taste different...sometimes sour sour wan..but very nice..
Je & Me: ....

Juls: dear...we are going conca's...i'm taking ur car keys if ure not coming..
Merv: ......My name is Baby-M......its not dear or Merv..its baby M!!...

Je & Me: .....

Juls: ok ok..come come...baby-m..come...mommy bring u go "kai kai" ok??..(Kai kai = going for an outing)
Merv: yay!!

Me: let's get a cab...
Je: TAAAXXXXIIIII..!!!!!

At Conca's.. = a dodgy looking cafe which looks..well..dodgy.
Really, my first impression of this place would is like...man...how is this cafe gonna survive??...look at it...there's no one in there'..except 3 fat uncle - unidentified race - playing poker...a lady sittin' by the counter...ppl actually go in there to eat?..

by looking at the place...i don't even wanna know how they make those pizzas..

but seriously...good food..just don't go to the back and look how they cook the food...

lady: what do you wan...!!??
Juls: *gulp...*..can i have tea pls...for 2...
Je: *eekkk...darn it...i hate it when ppl raise their voice all of a sudden...scared the crap out of me and now i have to change my diapers...luckily i brought extras..* can i have a glass of warm milk..
Me: can i have a hot chocolate..and chili mussels...for 4
Merv: yeah..i'll have hot chocolate too

lady: ....and then..??
Merv: that's all..thanks
lady: ....and then..??
Merv: only the hot chocolate..same as him..*pointing to Me*
lady: ....and then..??
Merv: look lady...don't get all "dude, where's my car" on me a'ight?
lady:...darn it...24.50 pls..

We usually will occupy a table outside where we can smoke and feel the cool breeze while sipping our drinks and have our normal conversation...as usual..talk cock..sing song..

Juls: *sluuuuurrrrrrppppp.....* ahhh.....REFILL!!!..

Yea...you can actually refill for your tea. well..they just add hot water for you...no big deal..

Je, as usual..will be sipping on her warm camel milk..

me and merve?...ciggy and hot choco..

#3...still strolling in the living room..
neighbour: *coming back from his outting..*...FREAKK!!!!*

#3: no no...baby H..baby P..he is not saying u..u are not freak ok??..dun listen to him...he is refering to mommy only...
neighbour: .....

back at concas..finally..the long awaited chili mussels...is here..!! During the arrival of the mussels, all of us are hungry already. You get hungry real fast in winter and u eat alot to keep the fire burning inside our "engine"..so...within minutes..there's nothing left but mussels shells...

and the bowl of mussels usually comes with a loaf of garlic bread..and as usual..we will dip the the garlic bread into the mussels sauce and pops it right into our mouth...hmm.....( darn it...rumbly in my tumbly de )

well..for some of us have special or rather unusual way of consuming the garlic bread..

Me: normal, dip into the mussel sauce..
Juls: dip it into her tea...OK..its weird..and i dun even wanna know how does it taste like but according to Juls, it taste like durian...ok...something is not right here

Je: likes it soak up with milk...man..it looks like ... i looks like...well..i'll leave it to your imagination..
Merv: likes it with his hot chocolate...well..looks like diarrhea to me...don't even think about putting it into my mouth..

tell you more on how i scared the crap out of juls and je on my next blog..hahaha...

I'm Mr Chan signing off - ah Ju Ju...you dun understand..Ju Ju..
