One morning we went to one of our regular coffee shops for breakfast after our morning walk.
My hubby's usual unsweetened black coffee and my favourite herbal tea.
That morning I have no appetite for noodle, so I ordered toasted sweet bun.
I requested butter and kaya (coconut jam) for the toasted sweet bun.
Sometime this simple and light breakfast is very satisfying.
Hubby ordered this bowl of pre-fried noodle (yee mee) in soup.
Thank God for His blessing upon us.

This flower looks like the Mexican Dwarf Petunia flower.
The above items are from the National Museum.
From the top: water or soup ladles, coconut grater and sweet cake moulds.
Coconut Grater is a type of jagged tool used to grate the coconut meat or kernel. It is one of the most important cooking tools especially among the Malay villagers. Probably an inseparable tool from traditional Malay societies as most of the Malay cuisine recipes use coconut milk.
But someone may well argue,
"You say the way to God is by faith alone, plus nothing;
well, I say that good works are important too,
for without good works you can't prove whether you have faith or not;
but anyone can see that I have faith by the way I act."
(James 2:18, The Living Bible-TLB)

DeleteYee mee is one of my favourite noodles. The toasted sweet bun looks like those Apollo buns - how much does it cost?
ReplyDeleteI don't know the cost, but I think it is cheap because this is just a coffee shop.
Deletemmm yummy ...
ReplyDeleteThank you, Azka.
DeleteOoh those buns look so fluffy and a little sweet.
ReplyDeleteThe buns can be eaten on it own because it is a sweet bun.

I like your kind of breakfast too. Have a good day!
DeleteI loved seeing more of the exhibits from the museum. I would have enjoyed the sweet bun for breakfast.

Thank you, Sandee.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteInteresantes antigüedades. Besitos.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
DeleteI would never have known what any of these implements are! So the coconut graters still look like this? Must be heavy!
ReplyDeleteYes, it is heavy because of the block of wood. Some homes are still using it but most shops are using electric powered graters.
DeleteTambién yo tomo café en el desayuno tan solo que a mí me gusta con leche.
ReplyDeletePan tostado con mantequilla es un buen desayuno.
Besos
Thank you, dear.

DeleteI would never have guess coconut grater! I don't know what I would have thought it was, though. These are so interesting. Love seeing things I have never seen or heard of.
ReplyDeleteThere are many more interesting things to share in future posts.
DeleteThe grater is quite out of my experience.
ReplyDeleteI like the shape of the grater, so different from the common rectangular ones.
