Lunch & Dessert With Ex-Colleagues In Ipoh Old Town.

Recently, we had the opportunity to meet up and had lunch with our ex-colleagues. Someone mentioned Cheong Loi Restaurant in Ipoh old town and so that was the venue for our lunch. We were among the early customers.
Very soon the tables will be filled.
The following food were for 6 people.
Deep fried black pomfret fish with (hum choy) salted vegetables.
Leek with roast pork
White tofu with prawns.
We started off with these 3 dishes
Then we added sweet sour vegetable.
Did we ask for a hard boiled egg?
*     *     *     *     *
After lunch, desserts were on our mind.
How about this place "Rojak N cendol, Padang Ipoh?
This place is facing the Ipoh Padang.
Iced cendol with canned sweet corn.
Iced cendol with kidney beans.
I was told that during the durian season, this place served Iced Cendol with durian.
Must keep this in mind for the next durian season.

Lord, if you keep in mind our sins,
then who can ever get an answer to his prayers?
But you forgive! What an awesome thing this is!
(Psalm 130:3-4, The Living Bible-TLB)
