Simple Lunch At Ting Hao Restaurant, Ipoh.

Last Sunday, we agreed to meet up at Jaya Jusco department store where they needed to do some shopping for the night's hot pot dinner. After having bought all that we needed, we moved on to look for something to fill our tummies. We decided on Ting Hao restaurant, which hubby and I have been once before and we have totally forgotten about this place.

Once seated, we each made our own choice and ordered what we each wanted to eat. Altogether, there were 7 of us.
 My hubby and a friend ordered this Sambal Petai Rice (spicy stinking bean rice) @ MYR 9.00 (approx. 2.21 USD)
 A friend ordered this normal Fried Rice @ MYR 7.00 (approx. 1.72 USD)
 A friend ordered this "Mui Fun" (rice topped with silky savoury gravy) @ MYR 7.00 (approx. 1.72 USD)
 2 friends ordered this Stir Fried Loh Shu Fun (silver needle noodle) @ MYR 7.00 (approx. 1.72 USD)
 And I ordered a Pineapple Fried Rice with a tinge of spiciness of curry spices @ MYR 7.50 (approx. 1.84 USD)

 My glass of Iced Lemon Tea to quench my thirst.

Many waters cannot quench the flame of love,
neither can the floods drown it.
If a man tried to buy it with everything he owned, he couldn't do it.
(Solomon 8:7, The Living Bible-TLB)
The rainy season has started and it has been raining daily.

The following photos are for joining Saturday's Critters.
Took this snapshot of this white bird at a traffic light.
Lately, we have been seeing many of this bird in Ipoh.
I do not know the name of this bird.
Found this yellow grasshopper in my friend's garden.
It didn't fly away even when I went close with my cell phone.
Saw this pair of birds on the power cable behind my garden.

  17. I don't think I've ever had the silver needle noodle. It's a bit of a tongue twister if you try to say it a few times quickly. ;-)

    1. I did zoom in a bit but not really that close. It was late evening, and the grasshopper was just clinging onto the branch and moving at all. It was just great for me to capture it up close. Lucky me!

  19. We like the food here too, but a little bit pricey, probably because of the rent.
    Do you know where Aberdeen used to be? Now they have changed hands and it's called F&B Paradise (open from 5 p.m.). Food there's tasty and reasonably priced.

    1. I haven't been to both Aberdeen or F&B Paradise. The next time I make a trip there, will look out for the place.
