On Monday afternoon, after the Fah Sang Wu or Sweet Peanut Broth dessert, we drove back to my house for our friends/guests to take a rest. The venue for dinner was not yet decided and our other friends will be taking charge of it. When evening came, it was raining very heavily. We were glad that it rained to cool down the temperature.
After a good rest and having freshen up, we were ready to go out for our dinner. It was still raining when we drove out.
We were told to go to the night market's site.
We were the first to arrive. By then the rain has slowed down to a drizzle.
Restoran CJ Hotpot, No. 19, Jalan Medan Ipoh 7,

Today is Saturday's Critters!
Frogs in a cage found in a restaurant.
One curious goat ....
Linking to Saturday's Critters.
Be sure you know the condition of your flocks,
give careful attention to your herds;
for riches do not endure forever,
and a crown is not secure for all generations/
When the hay is removed and new growth appears
and the grass from the hills is gathered in,
the lambs will provide you with clothing,
and the goats with the price of a field.
You will have plenty of goat's milk to feed your family
and to nourish your female servants.
(Proverbs 27:23-27, New International Version-NIV)
Delicious dinner. Not only hot pot with fish head broth but the minced pork with salted fish, smoked duck and squid! I am drooling now.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rose. Everything tasted great on a cool, rainy night and in the company of friends.
DeleteThat hot pot must be very delicious with all those ingredients!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Phong Hong. It is especially delicious on a cool, rainy night! Lol!
DeleteI guess that goats are all over the world.
ReplyDeleteSo sad for kids staying in the big cities can't get to see them at all.
DeleteGoats are interesting Nancy.
ReplyDeleteI know fish heads is your culture, but..
Thank you, Margaret. Fish head dishes are very popular here though some may not like it.

Thank you, Gil. Have a nice new week ahead!
DeleteHard to choose a favourite dish!
ReplyDeleteI love the curious goat!
So far the smoked duck was my favourite.
DeleteLooks like a great variety of dishes!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Linda. Just enough for 8 hungry tummies. Lol!
DeleteThat soup looks perfect for a rainy night.
ReplyDeleteYes, it was perfect for a rainy night!
DeleteThe minute I saw this hot pot, my mouth began to water! It looks divine! The fish look exactly like baby barracudas! So is this like a food market or more of a restaurant? I bet you had the place mostly to yourselves because of the rain.
ReplyDeleteThis is a small restaurant. Initially, we were the 2nd table but after the rain stopped, there were about 5 tables occupied.
DeleteThe goats are a welcome sight!
ReplyDeleteThe goats are a rare sight for us staying in the city. Goats were once one of our playmates. Lol!
DeleteExcelentes fotografias e belos e deliciosos pratos.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e um bom fim de semana.
Thank you, Francisco. Have a great new week ahead!
DeleteNancy I don't like frogs and I am afraid of them.
ReplyDeleteLol! Gosia, you are not the only one. I don't like frogs and I am also afraid of them. But this time, they were caged so I quickly took a snapshot and walked off.
DeleteI wonder why goats always look so skinny :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe they are not well fed with quality food or grass. Possibly they have to look for their own food or grass.
Deletelovely pictures.. I'm drooling after seeing the picture of fish.. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Krishna. Looks like you love fish. I love fish too!
DeleteI loves those goats, hehe...
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sharon. I think they are kinda cute.
DeleteLovely post dear! Have a great week! xx
ReplyDeleteThank you, Beauty. Have a great week too!
DeleteI prefer to say in on a rainy night
ReplyDeleteI would love to in on a rainy night but we have to honor our dinner date with friends. It was good that the rain stopped.
DeleteLooks delicious!
ReplyDeleteI like the frogs, I feel sorry for them.

Thank you, dear. I feel sorry for them too even though I am afraid of frogs.
DeleteThis meal looks fantastic, with some special dishes. From the name I'd have thought it's just another steamboat place.
ReplyDeleteThis hotpot is quite popular here.
