Dinner With Old Friends At Kopitiam Mun Soon, Taman Pinji Wani, Ipoh.

It was Easter Sunday and it happened to fall on 1st April, also April Fools day! The day went pretty smoothly with no April Fools pranks played on anyone of us. That evening, we had a dinner date with an old friend who wanted to give us a treat. We planned a Sunday dinner to accommodate a friend who works late on other days. Altogether there were 5 of us and we looked forward to tasting the food at this new place. Our earlier attempt was unsuccessful because the whole place was packed and many customers were waiting to be seated. This is a common scenario at newly opened eateries here in our country.

This time we went a bit earlier, making sure we reached the place before 6.30 pm to beat the dinner crowd. We arrived just in time to find a table available. Looking around we saw that every table was occupied. Before we even get seated, someone came to take orders and we left the ordering to the boss. Service was fast. In spite of the crowd, our dinner was served in a short while.

Appetizing sweet sour stewed pig's leg.

This alone will tempt you to eat extra rice.

Deep fried tofu topped with deep fried shrimps, etc.

The following picture is for joining Tuesday's Treasure and Image-in-ing. 

Found this antique portrait in the dim sum Restaurant Sun Kim Aik, Falim.

Linking to Tuesday's Treasures & Image-in-ing.

He (Jesus) saw through their trickery and said, "Show me a coin.

Whose portrait is this on it? And whose name?"

They replied, "Caesar's - the Roman emperor's."

He said, "Then give the emperor all that is his - and give to God all that is his!"

Thus their attempt to outwit him before the people failed;

and marveling at his answer, they were silent.
