LEMAK BUBUR CHA-CHA


This post is also attributed to the Kopi Kat Klan... one of who's famous creations is also linked to sweet dessert tong sui .... Ais Kachang... for those of you who remember this group (having launched 2 English, or should I say Singlish albums - Laughing Stock and We Are Back... filled with gems of warmly spoken Singlish and nuggets of culture and school growing up memories)...

Kind of like the bubur cha-cha tong sui ... Here's to the Kopi Kat Klan, and the new desserts available from today onwards, at Restoran Hainan Curry Rice...

Ice Kachang
by Kopi Kat Klan

Yai yai yai yai…. (repeat)

You always say I’m unromantic
Don’t know ways to make a girl tick
I must say you’re right about it
For I am truly unpoetic

But I am not dumb
And not that stupid
It’s just that sometimes brain not working
So I didn’t sleep
Used my little wit
To write this little bit (Yai yai yai yai yai yai yai…)

You are my ice kachang (ice kachang)
In this tropical heat (my heart melts for you…)
You are my favourite dessert (ooh la la)
So inviting, so sweet
Would you like to bo bo cha cha (cha cha cha)
Come along and dance with me (shoo bee doo wap shoo bee doo wap)
You are my love
My tutti fruitti
Someone I’d like to eat

Sha la la… Yai yai yai yai…

Every time when we go dating
First the movies then go shopping
You always hint I’m unexciting
It has been so since the beginning

But I am not dumb
And not so stupid
‘Tis just that sometimes I’m a blur king
So I didn’t eat
Used my little wit
To write this little bit (Yai yai yai yai yai yai ya…)

You are my ice kachang (ice kachang)
In this tropical heat (my heart melts for you)
You are my favourite dessert (ooh la la)
So inviting, so sweet
Would you like to bo bo cha cha (cha cha cha)
Come along and dance with me (shoo bee doo wap shoo bee doo wap)
For you are my love
My one atapchee
Someone I’d like to eat

Each time I look into your eyes
I see some pretty colours, very nice
I wouldn’t mind paying any price
I’m kachang over you (I sago honeydew)

You are my ice kachang (ice kachang)
In this tropical heat (my heart melts for you…)
You are my favourite dessert (ooh la la)
So inviting, so sweet
Would you like to bo bo cha cha (cha cha cha)
Come along and dance with me (shoo bee doo wap shoo bee doo wap)
For you are my love
My tutti fruitti
Someone I’d like to eat

Chorus:
You are my ice kacang
In this tropical heat
You are my favourite dessert
So inviting so sweet
Would you like to bo bo cha cha

For you are my love, my tutti frutti
Something I like to eat

Sweltering...

Sure feels like this... when Chinese New Year sets in, there's bound to be a sweltering heat wave. That's how I remember it for a long time. The rain just few days before threatened to make this a different type of year, but it was stopped short as the Rabbit came hopping in to beckon in the Spring Time for the Chinese.

So... as a tribute to the hot weather as well... we have some trivia for you too...

Driest place in the world is the Atacama Desert - it is a plateau in South America, covering a 600-mile / 1,000km strip of land. This place has not received a drop of rain in the past 400 years.
Hottest places in the world is a tie between Altar, Sonora (Mexico) : 55degC ; Jacobabad, Sindh (Pakistan) : 55degC ; Halil River, Kerman (Iran) : 57degC ; Al-Aziziyah (Libya) : 57.8degC ; Death Valley, California : 56.7degC
Driest and hottest place in Malaysia is Chuping, Perlis. Temperature recorded was 40.1degC, in 1998
