Grocery trip for just under $20 USD
-
6 of those dollars for the sliced yakiniku.
Lotte Grosir supermarket In Yogya, Indonesia. I figured I'd get some fresh fruit, make some beef jerky and then eat all of the snacks I hadn't tried yet.
Great haul

Thanks, there are an absurd selection of instant noodles, so I got three, and then my friend instantly told me I should have gotten a different brand haha, so I guess I'll have to try them also.
You know what's really interesting though? Indonesians put the boiling water into the cup of noodles for 3 minutes but then they poke a small hole at the top and drain out the water and then mix in the seasoning, so you get a much stronger flavor and the noodles don't go crazy mushy after one extra minute in the soup.
I don't think I've ever come across that practice before, and I eat instant noodles very rarely, but I definitely like this preparation method much more than leaving the water in after the noodles are boiled.

I used to make "free" lunch at work from the frees snacks. Shin noodles, cheese sticks, and some eggs dropped into the hot water with the noodles. You unlocked one of my core memories. Good times
