a bowl of gold

i'm eating laksa while typing tis. was spooning into my mouth and staring into the soup when i remembered how tis bowl of laksa would be like a pot bowl of gold in sydney despite the fact that its very oily (which i dont know why. always thought katong laksa are less oily than the other type of laksa) and somewhat not very tasty (today). while we're in a place where we seem to have everything, we'll up our expectations and pick on what we percieved as bad but yet is being treated as gold in another place. same thing, (probably) same person, but different experience.
