Good day fellow myLotters.
It is Wednesday here in my part of the world. Woke up later than usual and woke up very hungry. So after having my oatmeal, I decided to have brunch. Not going to lie, I have nothing to cook in my fridge since I mostly eat out. Went out across to the stores that sell home-cooked food. Decided to have fried fish and eggplant. The fish is tilapia, not sure if you guys are familiar with it. Anyway, also got some shrimp paste, the spicy variety for the eggplant. Also got some diced unripe mangoes. Of course, with rice because why not?
Needless to say, I ate a lot.
What is everyone else having today?

From the picture you uploaded, I see there some similarities between your meal and Indonesian meals in general.
Today, my wife bought freshwater fish, chilly, and other ingredients.
