Home Cooked Spaghetti Dinner & Coffee At Starbucks.

One evening, we were invited to a simple home cooked dinner. First, the dinner started off with a plate of delicious spaghetti meal.
 My plate of spaghetti with minced pork and other treasures.
 It has been a long time since I last ate spaghetti and I really enjoy this. After dinner, we then adjourned to the newly opened Starbucks outlet in Jelapang to enjoy their coffee.
This is my 2nd visit to this place for me
I enjoyed the hot chocolate drink during my first visit.
 This round, I enjoyed the iced mocha coffee. I can't remember the exact name. While there, I collected some snapshots of their wall decorations.

Tigers are prowling the streets!"
and then pull the covers back over their heads.

Found these treasures at the Antong Coffee Mill, Taiping.
 Rattan and straw baskets and other treasures from the old days.
Old fashioned rattan basket as food carrier plus an old record.

  1. The wall decors are nice & rattan baskets are a treasure to keep. It has been a long time I can't comment in your blog & today by chance it can. I feel so happy and hope it stays that way for long.

  15. I love all things pasta and your dinner looks mighty good.

    I rarely go to Starbucks. We think it's just overpriced, fattening coffee.

    Have a fabulous day. ☺

    1. Thank you, Sandee. We too agree that it is overpriced and fattening coffee. We can only afford it once in a while and we look out for special promotions.

  18. The spaghetti looks very good. I love the pretty plates!! Starbucks are so popular here, there are many!! More than one in some cities. We love them, both their coffee, baked goods, and sandwiches. This one is huge! Ours are not as big, most are smaller. I LOVE their animal pictures, and your bible verse made me smile!

  26. This made me smile -- a very common everyday weekday meal for me is unusual for you ... maybe the first I've seen on your blog that I recognize right away. Starbucks too -- but the wall decorations are different --

  29. Spaghetti is 'big' in our country. I seldom eat it but when I do, I enjoy it. We also have tons of Starbucks in our country, even in our grocery stores.. They are very popular. Again, I seldom visit them not because their coffee is not good (it is) --but because it is SO expensive compared to other places. Sound like you enjoyed both the Spaghetti and Starbucks..

    Hugs,
    Betsy
