Being stuck at home for so long, I am missing the food I had in previous trips.

The last trip I had was around late December. I went to Shanghai for a quick getaway to recharge my batteries.

One day, I joined a local trip to visit a tea farm. We had an amazing lunch prepared by a villager living in the farm. One of the dishes was Pearl Meatballs. It was a pork meatball wrapped with tender glutinous rice. This Hubei cuisine is like our Lo Mai Gai (sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf) but the rice-meat ratio is completely different.

I've tried to replicate the dish today. It was so good that Mum had to stop me from eating all of them. Gosh! Looks like I have to do an hour workout to burn it off.
