Someone wanted to eat soft shell crabs and I remembered having soft shell crabs at a restaurant in Menglembu. So we got together, and all 6 of us were in Menglembu to check out if they still serve that dish. We were the earliest customers, so food was served real fast!
The first 3 dishes were served.
Deep fried soft shell crabs @ RM 35.00
Sweet sour chili sauce as dipping for the deep fried soft shell crabs.
Stir fried assorted treasures and chicken in yam or taro ring with overflowing garnishing of lettuce and crackers @ RM 30.00
Spicy belacan sauce Stinking beans and minced meat with spicy belacan sauce @ RM 25.00. This dish will tempt you to eat more rice.
Yau Cham San yu or translated as Snakehead fish cooked in oil @ RM 71.50
This was the portion of rice that I took.
Total cost of dinner for 6 people = RM 173.00
(incl. rice, peanuts and wet towels)
Work hard and cheerfully at all you do,
just as though you were working for the Lord
and not merely for your masters,
remembering that it is the Lord Christ who is going to pay you,
giving you your full portion of all he owns.
He is the one you are really working for.
(Colossians 3:23-24, The Living Bible-TLB)
It all looks extra fresh! Maybe because you were the first ones there.
