My
other half-half has joined me in the exciting pursuit of discovering
new eateries, a refreshing departure from his usual routine of sticking to
familiar places and dishes. The news of his enthusiasm for suggesting
novel dining spots was particularly thrilling, considering his previous
tendency to opt for the same old eateries and stick to familiar dishes, playing
it safe rather than venturing into culinary exploration. I've noticed that
people's dining preferences are often influenced by those they choose to share
meals with. Some tend to shy away from trying new eateries or exploring
unfamiliar dishes unless compelled to by more adventurous companions (Ding Xiang Bak Kut Teh). I've made
it a point to avoid dining with those who limit themselves to predictable and
mundane food choices.
