Kelantan: Gastronomic Adventure
Khai Yee decided to follow me back to for Cheng Beng. His mission? Eat...eat....and eat

Khai Yee started his eating adventure at the airport. He wolfed down a tuna baguette before the flight. Upon touchdown, my dad brought us to eat "Nasi Dagang" a Kelantanese delicacy. Khai Yee ate a plate of "Nasi Dagang" with two pieces of chicken. After polishing off the plate of nasi, he proceeded to consume "tupai" compressed rice with chilli and prawns.

Morning tea was served at Temangan. Banana pancakes... Lunch was at Kelantan's oldest Chinese restaurant, which roughly 80 years old... Khai Yee consumed a bowl of rice and plenty of pork and rice dumplings...

Dinner was at the Thai village where the main dish was a plate of sago worms and bee larvae. Khai Yee insisted that he wanted to try the two dishes...so he can brag to his "big city" friends that he can so compete in Fear Factor.

This is the result of eating the bees...Khai Yee developed an allergic reaction to the bees. Notice the swollen eyes, actually he looks worse off in real life. He was red all over !!! Had to take him to the doctors...hehehe...
