Our last holiday in Cameron Highlands was in 2019. Since the first lockdown until now, we have put all our holiday plans on hold. Lately, our friend has been sending snapshots taken from his new condominium. Since then, we have been referring to his new condo as his weekend holiday resort away from the city.
Evening view from above.
Last Saturday, we were invited to a home cooked dinner at this weekend holiday resort. All the food were prepared by the hostess.
We used a navigator app to lead us the way.
We were warmly welcomed into the resort by the host while the hostess was busy getting dinner ready for us. Thanks to our hostess, we get to enjoy all these delicious dishes.
Ginger chicken with basil leaves.
Long bean omelette.
Sambal dried shrimp sweet potato leaves (home grown from my garden).
Black vinegar pig leg.
Ginger chicken without basil leaves specially for my hubby.
Cauliflower, carrot and fish balls.
Minced meat and fish paste patties.
After dinner, we had ice creams dessert (mini magnum ice creams) brought by our friends.
Just before we leave, I took this snapshot of the night lights from above.
We then thanked our host and hostess for the dinner and for their hospitality.
We bade them goodnight and we returned to our homes.
Above all, love each other deeply,
because love covers over a multitude of sins.
Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling.
Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others,
as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.
(1 Peter 4:8-10, New International Version-NIV)
Lovely food! Your friends who are the host and hostess are so gracious. I think ginger and basil leaves won't go well together, am I wrong?
ReplyDeleteSurprisingly, the ginger chicken basil leaves taste very good.
DeleteOh, after dinner so dark can still drive from Cameron highlands back to ipoh. How many hours did the drive take?
ReplyDeleteLol! The resort is not in Cameron Highland. Plus, we can't cross border to Cameron Highlands. Our friend's weekend resort is located outskirt of Ipoh.
DeleteAh, my bad. I misunderstood and thought the resort is in CH. Lolx!
DeleteSorry Mun, it was very misleading. Lol!
DeleteSo yummy food... hope our day will come again when we can meet up for food!
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile we have to "stay home" and be good. Lol!
DeleteThat looks like a really delicious and satisfying dinner, Nancy.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
Delete...I love the night scene!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tom.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
DeleteHow nice that you are now able to go for such a visit. It looks like a fabulous meal in a very lovely place.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mimi. Have a great week.
DeleteI miss Camerons too. Puasa month would have been an ideal time to go as I hear the crowds are much less.
ReplyDeleteGood that you had a 'resort' to go to in the meantime. :) Maybe we should organise these 'holidays' hehe. A friend of mine unearthed all his Persian-style carpets, draped fabric from the ceiling and called it 'Iftar in Turkey'.
Good idea to organize our own small group local holidays.
DeleteThe last time we went to Cameron was on my daughter's 19th birthday, that was three years ago. I hope we can get to go there again. Lovely spread. I love that "Sambal dried shrimp sweet potato leaves". Maybe will try to cook that if I can find sweet potato leaves.
ReplyDeleteYes, don't know when it is safe to visit Cameron again.
DeleteThe meals looks nice and good to get out.
ReplyDeleteDon't know of anyone down here who cooks sweet potato leaves, our ordinary potato leaves are poisonous to humans.
Thank you, Margaret. Have to be careful with the right type of leaves.
Deleteso many lovely dishes from the hostess. Better than eating at a restaurant. Great view, delicious food, got dessert some more. I hope you get invited again soon.
ReplyDeleteLol! Waiting for the next invitation.
DeleteVery dramatic skies.
ReplyDeleteThank you, William.
DeleteThank you, Francisco.
ReplyDeleteOh so nice
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo-Anne.
