Was browsing
my Germany photos and realized I hardly (well 1 blog entry todate) blog about
my trip. I guess there’s nothing much for you to blog about if you did a
layover trip. Well, there was the Frankfurt old town and the factory outlet, that’s
about it. For me at least.
Insisting
myself to blog about Germany makes me relook al the whole Germany album. Ah
hah! Found it. This will be a text heavy entry (which is quite rare for so I
hope you read thru lah), enjoy….
As usual,
when I travel, one of the main issue will be food; finding halal food to be
exact. Of course alternatively I can go for pure vegetarian food, seafood, pork
free and kosher (not in any particular order), but my first options will be
halal food. The same goes for my layover city – Frankfurt. Having stopping here
for less than 24 hours enroute to Balkan, I didn’t put any stress on it, maggi me
will do. Yes, am simple liddat.
You know
what? Was I wrong. Very wrong. So very very wrong.
“When you
least expected, it’ll spellbound you. Always.” True?
Our journey
begin when we arrived Frankfurt am Main Flughafen Fernbahnhof; the main train
station, a short walk to the hotel we were staying. As I walk and look around,
getting familiar with the surrounding I soon realized that there were a couple
of halal shops, all within 5-10 minutes walking distance. I remembered saying
to myself “I beginning to like Frankfurt, I underestimated this city”,
obviously after the journey outskirt to the factory outlet, I told myself to
revisit this city. A definite must.
Since halal
restos are at abundance here, I do not need to ration my Brahim food stock
*wink*, the days we were in Frankfurt, we will eat out.
I only have one
concern though, frankfurter! I am in Frankfurt so obviously I should try their
frankfurters. As we walk into the old town, Anna was leaping with joy “I must
try this and this and that!” and I was only hoping to see a halal frankfurter
stall/cart. Almost feeling disappointed, I saw this young chap selling frankfurters
in green shirt, green container and green umbrella instead of the colourful
rainbow coloured umbrella. Curiosity took over, and I made a beeline over and
saw the word I was looking for “HALAL”, “Yeszaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…” I told myself (masa
tuh rasa nak buat lompatan berpusing macam ‘Moero Attack’ hokkay). I told him
what I want and eagerly waited. Snapped a few pictures *proud moment*.
Makanya… the
taste?!?
Its ok,
yummy but takde lah sampai termimpi-mimpi nak makan 3 juta kali lagi.
Hehhehehhehe…..
