What We Ate On One Sunday.

Happy Saturday to you, its Saturday's Critters day! Today's posting is also about what we ate 3 Sundays ago. By the time the Church celebration ended, it was time to go for our lunch. For this particular Sunday, I took my friend to try this economy rice at Restoran Ritzbina, Jalan Bercham, Taman Desa Kencana, Bercham. This place is new to her.

We informed the servers that we both wanted porridge and below were our choices to go with our porridge. With so many yummy varieties, it is not easy to decide what we wanted.
My friend's choices - (from left) stir fried kai lan, bitter gourd with pork, okra with prawn paste and half a salted egg.
My choices - stewed pig trotter, lotus roots with fermented tofu & steamed taro root with pork belly.
These were our lunch for 2 people. 2 bowls of plain white rice porridge, 2 bowls of soup (self-service) and the items we have chosen.

As the Scripture express it,
"See, I am sending Christ to be the carefully chosen,
precious Cornerstone of my church,
and I will never disappoint those who trust in him."
(1 Peter 2:6, The Living Bible-TLB)
Found this serious and good looking cat under a car.
My hairdresser's pet, Fido.
I just realized that the cat and Fido did the same pose!

And below was our simple dinner at the hawker centre.
Stir fried kai lan with minced pork.
Sweet sour pig trotter with white radish.

A bowl of soup - Dehydrated veggie with pork ribs.
These are simple, yet satisfying meals.

  1. Your dish of pork trotters, taro with pork bellyis more flavourful than your friend's dish of ladyfingers, bittergourd and kailan. Did you both share your dish with each other?
