Finally, we managed to get together for a lunch gathering minus a friend who was having a bad sore throat. Even though she decided not to join for fear of passing the virus to us, she blessed us to go ahead with the lunch without her. We went ahead with the lunch gathering because it is not easy to get the majority together due to our individual's busy schedule. Our lunch venue was Maharaj restaurant located at 36, Jalan Raja Dr. Nazrin Shah, Ipoh. Tel:05-2432515.
The four of us went in one car. Since it was a week day, there were not many customers and the place was rather quiet. This was my first visit here. As I got down from my car, I realized that I did not have my smartphone with me. No smartphone means no camera but a wonderful friend came to the rescue. She volunteered to take whatever photos I needed.
Thank you, my dear friend for all the photos.

It is understandable that not everyone likes Indian food. Not all Indian food I like, but there are some that I like.
DeleteI miss those younger days where I meet my good friend to have meals every alternate day, now all married and busy with work
