One reason why i won’t share my recipes (I do have a lot of them and also the photos but the internet connection often doesn’t allow me to upload them! grrr…) is because of some certain relatives of ours, let’s just call them the ABCD family… okey, one day grandma A came to Bandung and yeah, the usual chit-chat about her bistro and blah blah blah… At that time I was too excited about doing a uni entrance test to ‘Bandung Institute of Technology’ a.k.a. ITB so yeah, I happily told them that if i’m accepted at that uni (apparently it’s the best uni in Indonesia) I’m going to cook them a supper (which they happily responded).
And then when I knew that i passed the test (USM ITB 2008) and was accepted at ITB, my Mom (she was in a huge euphoria -_-”) told ALL of our relatives about me (which, somehow, embarrassed me a bit), including the ABCD family. The family then came for a feast in our house (I cooked, of course). And (luckily) they were really impressed that my cooking skills are near my Mom (who is a former caterer).
But that happy thing comes with one cost… THEY FORCED ME TO GIVE MY SPECIAL RECIPE FOR THEIR BUSINESS PURPOSE… I mean, come on, they have a bistro and they want to add a new menu, which is my ‘original’ creation (T_T). I didn’t know why but I suddenly freaked out, not wanting to share the recipe. However If i object to their request, the ABCD family will call me as a…
STINGY YOUNG GIRL WHO THINKS THAT SHE’S MUCH BETTER THAN A CHEF
Worse, they’re gonna take revenge on our family (this means that my mom and dad is going to be involved) so yeah… ^^ I give them the recipe but I didn’t tell them the secret that makes my cooking was so delicious. That sounds cowardly but hey, you’ve never met the ABCDs before. You’re gonna be surprised if you meet them for real. I (often) don’t like them. Especially the head of their family. Uuuhhh. She sucks.
Well. at least i still have the original recipe. I’ll think about posting it 10 years from now. LOL.

Ha! So that’s the reason
Well, don’t worry about little things like that. I suppose if you give them the recipe, it doesn’t really matter because you can make another better recipe next time. Too bad I haven’t got a chance to taste that “special recipe” :p
