Western Style Dinner & Wild Plants At Fraser's Hill, Pahang.

For the 2nd evening at Fraser's Hill, we requested for Western Style dinner and the operator prepared roasted pork for us. Due to the lighting in the dining hall, the photos are not clear.
Homemade buns.
We had homemade buns with butter. 
Mushroom soup.
 Baked Potatoes
 Blanched crunchy cabbage.
 Roasted Pork Slices with pieces of crunchy pork skin.
 We were given 2 different type of sauces.
 And we had this for dessert, I think it is called Banana Pudding Cake.

The man looked around. "Yes!" he said,
"I see men! But I can't see them very clearly;
they look like tree trunks walking around!"
Then Jesus placed his hands over the man's eyes again
and as the man stared intently, his sight was completely restored,
and he saw everything clearly, drinking in the sights around him.
(Mark 8:24-25, The Living Bible-TLB)
