Neen Koh Fritters For Lunch & Spicy Dishes For Dinner

There was a heavy downpour yesterday afternoon and looks like it will be the same today. Dark clouds are now looming outside and I can hear raindrops on the awning roof. Hoping for another heavy downpour to cool down the temperature.
The day started with this morning sky at 7:00 am.
Later at midday, our friends invited us to join them for lunch.
We went to Pasir Pinji to look for the deep fried neen koh snack.
We need to place order for the "neen koh" (deep fried sticky glutinous cake) first and return to collect in about an hour's time. Meanwhile we went to the nearby food court "tai shu keok" (under the big tree) for a light lunch.
At the food court, we bought some deep fried crunchy snack "kacang putih" from a stall.
This is how the neen koh looks like. The center is the sticky glutinous rice cake (melted), sandwiched between a piece of sweet potato and taro (yam). These are then dipped into flour batter and deep fried. These are very addictive and I can eat a few pieces at a time.

We had an early dinner to avoid the crowd at Restaurant Mun Ji in Menglembu. Hubby wanted the fish head curry again.
Since there were only two of us, we thought of ordering just one small pot of fish head curry.
But when hubby heard that they had stinky beans, he couldn't resist ordering a small plate. In the end, we finished the stinky beans and packed home the remaining fish head curry for next day's dinner.
Evening sky after we returned from our dinner at 7:14 pm.
The evening was still warm even after the heavy downpour.

live only to please themselves,
but those who follow after the Holy Spirit
find themselves doing those things that please God.

    1. "Stinky beans" put me off from enjoying them for a long time. They are not stinky when eaten.

  13. To the average westerner fish head and stinky beans don't seem especially appealing, but I am sure they were delicious!
