Packing List

My trip is in 7 days! Finally. Here's a packing list that I have compiled for everyone to use. I will add more things in the future if needed.

• Maggi Mee (I like the Myojo ones but it's up to your own preference)
• Instant ramen
• Cup noodles (These are useful when you first get there and have yet to do your groceries shopping. Or if you are feeling greedy late at night)
• Milo packets (I don't think they have this in Europe)
• Green tea packets (Same for this. If they have it will be expensive)
• Cumin seed (A great condiment to add to dishes)
• Honey stars (I plan to eat this for breakfast for the first few days)
• A1 curry paste (I like this brand of curry paste and they are easy to use. Just add a tablespoon into your vegetables, meat, etc if you are craving curry)
• Pork floss 
• Bak Kwa (Remember to bring vacuum packed ones) 
• Boots
• White and black pepper (White pepper is rare in Europe and black pepper is much cheaper here) 
• Bakuteh and curry chicken from Prima taste (These are ready to cook packages that only require you to add pork/chicken. However, they are quite expensive and cost about $7-$8 a box for a meal for 4-6 people)
• Mamee 
• Mee sua
• Light soy sauce
• Dark soy sauce
• Mama lemon
