Lunch At Teh Tarik Place, Cameron Highlands.

Before we checked out of the Nova Highlands Resort and Residence, we went out to The Square in search of something to eat for lunch. We chose a place which suits everyone's taste buds. We settled for this Teh Tarik Place. "Teh tarik" means pulled tea.

Legend has it that "teh tarik" was invented in the 1800s when a Sultan wanted a different way to enjoy his tea. A young servant boy thought of a way to entertain the Sultan whilst he prepared the tea.

 Initially, most of us were interested in the above dishes.

 Then we were distracted by the above "Great Value".
So finally, most of us settled for this great value set.
This auntie totally forgotten about taking snapshots of the food!

They blended very well with their surrounding.

Then there was war in heaven;
Michael and the angels under his command fought the Dragon
and his host of fallen angels.
And the Dragon lost the battle and was forced from heaven.

  5. You forgot to take shots of the food. That is so unlike you, but you sure must have enjoyed your lunch if you forgot to take photographs.

    1. Ha ha, Sandee. I suppose I was too taken up with the signs shots that I just sat down and started to eat. Really very unlikely of me! Lol!

    1. The tea is poured into another mug from a distance, to and fro to create a layer of bubble on top of the tea. That's pulled tea!

  14. Love all the wall decor, Nancy. Was the teh tarik overly sweet? Actually, I enjoy teh tarik because by pulling it, the tea is cooled down nicely for me. But I rarely order teh tarik because it's usually too sweet for my liking.

    1. I requested for less sweet teh tarik. I don't like sweet drinks.
