The Albatross
Tuesday 28 May 2024
The one great advantage of staying in a resort is the breakfast, as you can have a huge range of everything and barely need to eat for the rest of the day. Every country also seems to have the special thing. In Sri Lanka there was always someone making fresh hoppers, here it is beautiful fresh roti. Tuna just goes the one with egg inside, I go the special of the day. Today it was a super fluffy crunch bread with a mildly sweet condense milk over the top, yesterday was a spicy sambal. Both excellent.
I also went and attacked the curry section today, (along with a lot of other things). The egg curry was a delight, well it was until mid-afternoon. As we tend to only brave the climate in mornings and evenings if we can help it, the ramifications for both of us in the hotel room were a tad unpleasant. As we have a bit of Bezza time tomorrow, I might hit the nice broth and noodle section instead, maybe a nice bowl of congee.
Happy to leaving the resort tomorrow and start the final leg home. Three weeks in the tropics really is my limit. I love the cultures, sights and chaos, however, I just get so over the heat and humidity. I’m also really looking forward to my own home and kitchen where I’m free to create a varied menu. Top of the list is a lamb roast.
