“Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically.” – DH Lawrence

I once commented on Facebook after a visit to a local food court: 鱼汤没几片鱼肉，鸡饭没几块鸡肉，唯有吃炒饭才没有被骗的感觉。因为炒饭绝不会缺饭。

I shall call this 独臂虾炒饭 in Chinese. It doesn’t take long and it’s so easy that you can even do it with one hand. Enjoy cooking, enjoy eating. Tired of long queues at food courts? Wait till Singapore’s population hits 6.9 million.
