Dinner At Restoran Chuen Kah Fook, Menglembu

A group of us met up for dinner on Sunday, the eve of CMCO, conditional movement control order (from 9 Nov - 6 Dec, 2020). After this, we will not be able to meet up in groups, at least for the time being until further announcement. Due to the sudden surge of infected cases, this restriction was re-enforced to curb the spread of the virus.

We were all seated at an extra big round table. The following dishes were served on a rotating tempered glass top placed in the centre of the table.

Taro, pumpkin and minced meat in clay pot.
Deep fried tofu topped with minced meat, chopped salted radish, soy sauce, etc.
Eggplant in clay pot.
Steamed chicken served with "sar keong" or "cekur" ginger.
Deep fried butter egg squid.
Assorted vegetarian dish (chai choy) with fermented bean curd.
Fish head curry.
Here ends our dinner and hopefully, we will be able to gather again after cmco.
This fish pond was on the ground floor of an apartment block.


I am radiant with joy because of your mercy,
for you have listened to my troubles and
have seen the crisis in my soul.
You have not handed me over to my enemy but
have given me open ground in which to maneuver.
(Psalm 31:7-8, The Living Bible-TLB)

  5. All the dishes I like very much! It looks like infection rate are still very high and I wonder if we will still be under CMCO or MCO come Chinese New Year.

    1. I really hope the situation will improve. CMCO is not good and MCO will be very bad for everyone especially the businesses.
