Last Sunday night, our friends came to pick us up from our house and we had a leisure ride to Lawan Kuda in Gopeng. We started about 6 pm and to avoid the after office peak heavy traffic on the main road, our friend drove through the kampung (village) roads. It is the longer route but we didn't mind as we were not in any hurry and it was a nice cool evening.
Our friends have tasted the Snakehead fish herbal soup and they enjoyed it very much and they invited us to try out the dishes at this restaurant. Thanking LCK & wife for a yummy dinner and good fellowship.
We ordered one fresh Snakehead fish for cooking 2 dishes.
Dish #1 - boneless fish slices stir-fried with ginger slices and spring onions.
Dish #2 - after removing the meaty part, the rest of the fish was used to cook herbal soup in a clay pot. This dish was advertised in the local Chinese newspaper.
Steamed Yam with Pork Belly dish (kau yoke).
This was taken just after we got down from our car. The sky looked like threatening to rain. It started to drizzle after our dinner.
This photo was taken from the back seat where I was seated while the car was moving. I love the tall swaying coconut trees.
All the trees of the field will know that I the LORD
bring down the tall tree and make the low tree grow tall.
I dry up the green tree and make the dry tree flourish.
I the LORD have spoken, and I will do it.
(Ezekiel 17:24, New International Version-NIV)

DeleteIt rains every evening here starting this week. The scary part is the lightning and thunder. I hate driving in such condition.
ReplyDeleteYummy and nutritious dishes especially the snake head fish. I cannot remember I taste this fish before or not. Maybe I did. Haha.
This piping hot fish soup will be good for a rainy evening.

DeleteThe only thing better than a good meal like this is enjoying it with friends!
ReplyDeleteYes, Ginny, good fellowship with friends make a lot of difference.
DeleteI like the dish 1, fish slices, no bones, very easy to eat. In Ipoh, even on Sunday night there is after office peak traffic?
ReplyDeleteMun, thanks so much for pointing out my mistake. It was not after office peak traffic, it was some heavy traffic at the main road that my friend wanted to avoid ...lol...
DeleteLol! No problem, I was just wondering about it so I asked. Thanks for clearing this up. :)
DeleteI never had snakehead fish or sweet potato leaves but I love sweet potatoes. I'm sure it was all very tasty. Thanks for showing us new food.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend.
Hugs,
JB

DeleteNancy, the food sure looks good! I'm wondering what is snakehead fish. Is it ikan haruan?
ReplyDeleteYes, it is ikan haruan. The soup and fish slices, both dishes very good.
DeleteI like everything with fish so I would be probably very satisfied with the menu:)
