welcome to the world to baby francis. he was born on thursday morning and wasn't even a day old when we saw him in the hospital that evening. we were all so eager to hear the story of how he was born from his mom, hihi. she said: oh, you just wouldn't want to know the pain. but later when she was out looking at baby francis from the glass window, she whispered: i could look at him forever. well, motherhood must be quite an adventure after all.

having visited the hospital, we continued to cibadak to eat kobe steamboat yang lokasinya deket pertigaan cibadak dan pajagalan. jalan pajagalan ini nanti tembus ke kalipah apo. hari ini ada member baru: risa yang tadinya sok ga mau ikut makan tapi ternyata ikut juga. alasannya karena dia lapar mata waktu liat menu makan hihi di rumah sakit. aneh ... we ordered steamboat and tempura. steamboat-nya banyak sekali. isinya ada tahu, seafood, daging, jamur, sayuran, dan kita boleh minta tambah sayurannya gratis.

tante yang punya kobe dulu pernah curhat ada masalah kontrak sampe ke Komnas HAM segala. tadinya pengen ditanya kelanjutan ceritanya tapi karena semua keasikan makan, akhirnya lupa. dan tantenya juga tumben ga bolak-balik di depan, padahal biasanya selalu stand by dan ngasih nasi tambahan gratis. malam ini karena yang serve si om-nya, jadi kita kena charge untuk tambahan nasi ^^


abis makan kita jalan sedikit untuk beli obi. masih di cibadak juga, sejajaran dengan kobe. obi is a kinda traditional snack, an empty ball made of flour and tasted sweet and crunchy. the man wearing red in the pic is the seller. he kindly posed for us when i told him i wanted to take his pic. he said he'd been selling obi for five years but now a lot of people had imitated his secret recipe.
Cara masak obinya juga unik. Jadi si penjual ini punya bulatan-bulatan obi mentah yang dimasukin ke minyak panas di wajan (ADUH, i have put the pic of obi in the frying pan here tapi ga tau kenapa tiba-tiba ilang!!! ihik) trus obi mentah ini lama-lama mengembang. kalo udah setengah mengembang, obi ini harus dipencet-pencet pake sodokannya supaya dia bisa mengembang sempurna dan dalemnya jadi kosong, leaving the golden crunchy layer forming the shape of a ball. yah pokoknya begitulah, its quite an interesting way to make obi.

abis makan obi, kita beli sekoteng di jalan pasir kaliki, depan SMA Angkasa, tepatnya di depan studio foto. konon menurut fenty, ini sekoteng paling enak se-Bandung. jean2 beli wedang jahe, fenty beli sekoteng. trus kita semua mampir di kos risa untuk makan dan nonton 'Little Britain' yang kata ci deth adalah film sakit (aduh gubrak gambar sekotengnya juga ilang ... ini gimana seh!!!)
