FuFu Restaurant

FuFu Life in Frankfurt - Part Thirteen
27th - 28th March 2010

Since it's now still in the beginning of the summer semester, i am laying back and enjoying the weekend cooking in the kitchen. It's so much fun making the food i want to eat here in Germany. For your information, i have been cooking since 2002 when i was studying in Japan. So i already have eight years of cooking experience. Instead of a coffee shop, i once a while am thinking to open my own restaurant after my retirement.

A restaurant that will serve the dishes i can cook pretty good or the best i had tried during my travels all around the world. It's gonna be named as FuFu Restaurant that broadening one's culinary horizons with international dishes as if "you name it, you will get it" while highlighting the local food and promoting FuFu secret recipe as well. I will design a special combination for the menu or set meal that caters everyone's preference.

I love fine food while spending time with friends and sharing my adventures, so the only thing better than going to other restaurant is owning my very own down-to-earth restaurant. FuFu restaurant will also symbolise a more cultures side of humanity. It provides a place where people may gather to discuss my travelogues, flip through the photo albums, get travel information or tips plus all of my adventures will be shared.

In the cuisine culture, food is accepted as social, affluent, and downright hip. It's also a highly lucrative business since we need to eat and drink everyday in order to survive. And i wish to set the price rather reasonable than profitable or pricey. If i couldn't get a better job once i have completed my studies, i would like to set up a restaurant that not only serves different styles of food, also to share all of my travel adventures with the customers.

Imagine enjoying a plate of spaghetti after a bowl of hearty herbal soup, or sipping a cup of teh tarik (Malaysian milk tea) while having a plate of yummy Turkish pilaf (fried rice) while looking at the pictures, watching the video or reading the travelogues. With a dash of FuFu authentic worldwide adventures added that will definitely elevate the status of the restaurant. Also a chance to catch up with the world traveller - FuFu. Doesn't that sound wonderful?


Panang Curry Paste and the ingredients for FuFu Curry.


FuFu Curry = Potato + Tomato + Curry Past + Carrot + Chicken.


FuFu Salad = Lettuce + Cucumber + Tomato + Olive Oil + Vinegar.


FuFu Curry Rice (Malaysia) and FuFu salad (Italian).


Very HOT? No worries, salad (cucumber and lettuce) helps!

The set lunch on last Saturday was really yummy. Having half of the curry left and didn't want to have the same style of curry for dinner, i therefore simmered it as thicker as Japanese curry. At the meantime, i was making another simple dish for dinner with two eggs - Chawan Mushi ( 茶碗蒸し, Japanese-style egg custard). It's a nice set dinner that came out naturally with what left in the shelf. To make it a luxurious dinner, i indulged myself with a fruit yoghurt.


Simmer the curry longer to make it thicker = Japanese Curry Rice.


FuFu Homemade Chawan Mushi (Japanese-style Egg Custard).


Japanese-style curry rice.


Smooth + aromatic = yummy.


Fruit Yoghurt as the dessert of the day.

I had an important appointment in the toilet the next day. It was so smoothly done! To get my body recharged for the coming hectic week, i decided to make a hearty herbal soup i got from the Asian Market on the lazy gloomy Sunday. Chinese herbal soup, a distinctive feature of Chinese soup, is one of the easiest ways to cook and the herbs have gentle tonics and also renowned for curative functions. This palatable chinese herbal soup nourished the body and quenched the throat.


FuFu Hearty Herbal Soup.

Ingredient : Seven Chinese Herbs (Pearl Barley, Lotus Seeds, Dioscores, Lily Bulb, Fox Nuts, Poly Gonatum, Longan.)

Directions : Wash the herbs well before cooking. Boil all ingredients with skinless chicken or lean pork with 10 bowl of water. Simmer for three hours. Add salt for seasoning.


富富愛 心靓湯

藥材 : 苡米, 蓮子, 濰山, 百合, 肇實, 玉竹, 元肉

煮法 : 將所有藥材加入瘦肉或去皮雞肉以及清水十碗, 以文火煲約三個小時, 略加鹽調味即可享用富富愛心靓湯


It's a palatable + healthy soup.


FuFu drank all the soup, bowl bottoms up. *slurp*

Apart from the FuFu restaurant, i still have many stuff planning to be done. I wanna publish my first photo book/album, documenting my travelogues and get it published. Also to continue the second part of my world trip. Crazy? Impossible? Never laugh at anyone's dreams, because dreams can come true. Hey folks, dare to dream big! Impossible? Make it "I'm possible"! Remember, a good dream takes us one step closer to the goal.

So, who has the money and wanna to be my partner? It's a golden plate of opportunity. If being a restaurant owner sounds like the career of your dreams, FuFu is a good partner for you. I have been learning how to do business since i was ten years old at the grocery shop and then wet market selling vegetables. Let's work together setting up a successful business without spending a huge fortune but make a fortune. I wanna earn my first bucket of gold and let's succeed in this business venture.

富富廚房

在烹飪已經有八年那麼多經驗的我
一直都想退休後可擁有自己的餐廳
很想跟大家分享一些我特自的廚藝
雖然我的拿手小菜不甚麼特別珍貴
但就隱藏著一種親切及溫馨的味道
甜酸苦辣鹹這些味道姑且都很重要
我的食譜幾乎全部都很健康不油膩
那沒甚麼調味料又清淡的適合你嗎
現在的飲食業講求的都是嶄新創意
如要樹立富富餐廳真的要與眾不同
試想看如果沒有機會時間到國外去
又想收集一些關於當地的旅遊資料
或者偶爾想品嘗一些世界各地名菜
突然想知道富富有趣和獨特的壯遊
欣賞那些照片閱讀世界各國的遊記
還可能有機會跟富富見面交談兩句
這一樣的餐廳你們會時常去光顧嗎
到底有誰要資助富富開這一間餐廳
我們可以慢慢的商量洽談計畫實行
把這間餐廳做得有聲有色客似運來
意志投合的夥伴們為咱夢想奮鬥吧
