My Friends' First Dinner At Kedai Minuman Villa, Ipoh

Since the start of RMCO (Recovery Movement Control Order), we have been walking out from our house to the nearby shops, walking a few rounds around the blocks of shop. We prefer walking there because the streets are lighted up by street lights. Another reason is that there is less people walking there as most of them will be walking at the lake park which we used to go before the MCO started. The walk back home is interesting because sometimes I get to pass by and take snapshots of the pretty flower by the roadside.

Calliandra haematocephala flowers by the roadside.
Yellow Elder flowers by the roadside.
My friend's home grown Jack fruit or nangka fruit. It took her almost 2 hours to cut up the fruits and packed ready to distribute to her friends.
I received the above Jack fruit or nangka from my friend. She took the trouble to come all the way to send it to my house. Thank you, dear for your thoughtfulness. Appreciate it.

Dinner with friends from Penang.
This is the first time taking our friends to this new place for dinner. Our friends prefer the cooking of small eateries to well known restaurants.
Bitter gourd slices + egg omelette.
Free range chicken cooked with lots of blended ginger in clay pot. This is very flavourful and those who loves ginger would enjoy this dish.
Sweet potato leaves cooked in clay pot with lots of crispy fried lard. This is another tasty dish.
A very satisfying and reasonably priced dinner.

Have a Blessed Sunday!

For the Lord says,
"Because he loves me, I will rescue him;
I will make him great because he trusts in my name.
When he calls on me, I will answer;
I will be with him in trouble and rescue him and honor him.
I will satisfy him with a full life and give him my salvation."
(Psalm 91:14-16, The Living Bible-TLB)

    1. These flowers are found by the roadside outside residential houses. They are planted by the owners in front of their houses.

  4. Beautiful flowers and more delicious meals. I keep seeing Jack fruit in the store lately but have never tried it. I've heard it's used as a substitute for meat. Have a nice Sunday Nancy :)
