Hearty Breakie At Restoran New Hollywood, Ipoh

We woke up at 6 am on the previous Saturday morning and drove to the recreation park for our early morning walking exercise around the lake. 

After 2 rounds of walking, I took this sunrise picture.

After half an hour later, with another 2 rounds of walking I took this picture.

We usually do 3 to 4 rounds of walking around the lake and for this Saturday morning we did 4 rounds.

Then we drove all the way to Canning Garden to have our breakie (breakfast) at Restoran New Hollywood, located along Jalan Lee Kwee Foh.

I've tasted the Siamese Laksa from this stall on my 1st visit after the renovation and on the 2nd visit I wanted to try the Prawn Mee.

1st visit - Our breakie

I ordered a bowl of Siamese Laksa. I have not eaten Siamese Laksa for a long, long time.

A brighter view - Siamese Laksa with round rice noodle, small pineapple pieces, mint leaves and fish flakes from the specially made delicious soup.

Hubby's breakie - Fried flat rice noodle (kway teow) with prawns, cockles, egg and mung bean sprouts. Served on a piece of banana leaf lined plate with some chili sauce.

Addition order - deep fried neen koh. Neen koh slice sandwiched between sweet potato and taro slices, dipped in flour batter before frying.

(Neen koh is a kind of sweet cake made from glutinous flour)

2nd visit - Our breakie 

My breakie - a bowl of prawn mee (yellow noodle with half a hard boiled egg, 2 prawns, slices of fish cake, mung bean sprouts, green veggie called water convulvulus in specially made delicious prawn soup). It is served with special sambal sauce.

Hubby's breakie - fried rice vermicelli (beehoon) with prawns, cockles, egg and mung bean sprouts.

Suddenly have craving for these crispy deep fried "lobak" items and 1 century egg with pickled young ginger. Century egg is a Chinese delicacy made by preserving duck or chicken eggs in a mixture of alkaline clay, etc. The egg yolk turns black and the white turns a dark brown translucent jelly. It is best eaten with pickled young ginger.

A plate of "lobak" served with chili sauce.

Driving home after breakie. Have to pass under this pedestrian overhead bridge in front the Ipoh general hospital and thanking God for our able bodies and good health.

Linking to Skywatch Friday.

Jesus answered them,

"It is the sick who need a doctor, not those in good health.

My purpose is to invite sinners to turn from their sins,

not to spend my time with those who think

themselves already good enough."

(Luke 5:31-32, TLB)
