Mother's Day Celebration

This is a late post because Mother's Day was celebrated on Sunday, the 12th May. My friend and I celebrated our Mother's Day a day earlier, i.e. Saturday 11th May. Together with our spouse, we had breakfast (nothing special) and agreed to meet up for a light lunch.
 We went to Kafe Diamond Kopitiam in Menglembu for cold desserts. From top left: blended red bean ice, mango jelly ice, and 2 bowls of ice kacang.
 My friend ordered this mango jelly with dried sour plum as topping.
 2 bowls of ice kacang with ice cream.
 My friend's hubby chose the one with the strawberry ice cream and I had the chocolate ice cream. My hubby ordered the blended red bean ice.
 Crunchy deep fried flour fritters with rojak sauce and ground peanuts.
 On the way home, we bought the above "neen koh" or deep fried glutinous rice. The dessert and "neen koh" were our lunch. 
 Evening sky at 7:20 pm.
Younger son came back for Mother's Day, elder son couldn't make it.
 We had dinner with younger son at Restaurant Wong Sheng in Desa Rishah.
 Stir fried lettuce with garlic and fermented tofu (fu yee)
 Deep fried prawns in batter with salad dressing.
 Steamed Tilapia with soy sauce. Younger son likes it plain.
 Extra tables were placed outside and temporary tents were put up to cater to the crowd celebrating Mother's Day.

  17. Good looking desserts! I didn't know they sell just the fritters with rojak sauce. To many people that's the best part.
