Like it or not, the current situation is we're practicing social distancing to fight the current outbreak. Therefore, eating out at the restaurant is a big no-no. I'm very fortunate to having stay very near to this restaurant, less than a minute drive and I'm there for take away. If I choose to live a healthier lifestyle, I can take a slow walk like 15 minutes to get there, pack the food and go home.

I don't own the above collage, it was from Google Maps. I wanted to take a photo at the restaurant, but so far I don't have a chance yet, because usually it's either too hot and sunny when I visit, or it's night time I will not be able to take a picture of it. I had to borrow this from Google to show you. Anyway, let's get down to business, why does this title called molotov cocktail.
Here is the highly flammable food that might just explode in your mouth if not handle with care. It's not exactly HOT as how it seems, but definitely spicy. Note that I emphasize spicy and hot doesn't have to be the same. Spicy doens't mean hot, hot doesn't mean spicy. You can be hot and spicy though, but spicy do not need to be hot. Ok. I'm full of crap. Let's get on with it.
Due to the current lockdown situation, there's not much choice of seafood available in the morning market. So, it all depending on what kind of prawn they're getting. If small shrimps, they will give up to 4 shrimps in one pack. But today, I can say I'm less lucky, because it's a small tiger prawn. Despite small, but the shell is big, and therefore the operator can only give me 2 slices of prawn.
Here we got, added the prawn soup, very fragrant and savory of shrimp. This I need to highlight again, it's not exactly too hot for most people. To differentiate hot, and spicy, can be two different sensation. Hot simply means the burning sensation we felt on our tongue. It can be capsaicin from the chillies that gives the distinctive hot and peppery taste to you. Or, make no mistake, this is real HOT sensation because if you rub chilli on your skin, you'll feel the heat and pain like burning sensation.
Here's the final ingredient of the molotov cocktail that only allowed to explode in your mouth, which is the ultimate holy grail, we called it SAMBAL! It's a concerntrated chili paste that is boiled with dried shrimp paste. You can ask the stall operator to add this into the soup, but it will become overly diluted and taste less explosive.
And now, it's complete and ready to do some damage! Note that the soup is not only cooked with shrimp alone, I'm sure there are other special ingredient that we do not aware of. One of the most significant thing needed to add to the soup, is crab. What?! Crab? Exactly, shell fish themselves has their own distinctive "sea" smell. Prawn and shrimp shell are consider soft shell, but having a hard shell in the soup will definitely bring up the "sea level" of that soup.
Usually, if you do not specify, you'll be getting yellow noodle in this dish. But if you're someone like me, looking for ultimate explosion, mix the yellow noodle with rice noodle is the way to go. Reason for having rice noodle is allowing the rice noodle to absorb the soup into it. You'll have to eat fast, cry, sweat, running nose, chew it and feel the burning sensation, but still you can't help but to push in another mouthful of these molotov cocktail.
Well, just like having sex. You get yourself ready with foreplay, then bring up the heat, all the way to the climax, and then it's done. Molotov cocktail does the same, prepare the cocktail, light it up, throw it in and burn it. After the burn, it left some sign of burning, just like the burning sensation left in my tongue that slowly fade away. Time to clean up and thanks for reading my non-sense during this lockdown season. I hope I can go out more often and bring you more eatery review.
