This was a Tuesday and it was a no-cooking day for me. We were invited to lunch by our old friend or my ex-colleague and her husband. Our friend called us up a few days earlier to book us for lunch at her house. It is safer than sitting in a crowded restaurant. Both are in their 70s and takeaway is the best option for them. They know where to find and takeaway the best food in their vicinity and everything was ready and waiting for us when we reached their house.
Lunch for 4 elderlies.
Spicy and sour mustard green which is one of our favourite.
She even bought an extra pack for me to take home to enjoy.
Roast pork and bbq pork.
(the bbq pork was not added yet when I took this snapshot).
Poached chicken.
Pumpkin.
1 packet of seasoned rice.
1 packet of plain white rice.
Thanks to our friends for a tasty lunch and wonderful fellowship.
~~~~~
Takeaway dinner for 2.
We went to takeaway (tapau) 2 sets of wonton noodle from Buntong village.
The noodle was served with pork strips gravy and we requested for extra dumplings (wontons).
They make their own wonton noodle.
The noodle was served with blanched beansprout and spring onion.
Calamity will surely overtake the wicked;
heavy penalties are meted out to those who hate the good.
But as for those who serve the Lord, he will redeem them;
everyone who takes refuge in him will be freely pardoned.
(Psalm 34:21-22, The Living Bible-TLB)
That’s a different way to have lunch went invited out to dinner or lunch at a friends place. It does look lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Margaret. Happy weekend.
DeleteI was wondering why you were commenting on yesterday's post. Looks like you did not come over yesterday, no wonder! I've a new post out today. I went out for a bite to eat.
ReplyDeleteI was having some problem accessing some blogs. Don't know why, it happens on and off.
DeleteI bought some siew yoke and char siew too this morning - was planning to do something with them. Will blog about that soon.
ReplyDeleteWe love siew yoke and char siew. We have a few favourite siew yoke stalls when we can buy some nice siew yoke.

DeleteGood that you could get together.
ReplyDeleteIt was a wonderful get together.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo-Anne.
DeleteI agree that eating at own's house is the safest. I like the sour spicy mustard leaves dish and wanton dumplings. The wanton dumplings can just slide down the throat easily without chewing them, right? So easy to eat.
ReplyDeleteYes, the skin of the dumplings can easily slide down the throat but I will have to chew on the meat.
DeleteThere are so many good things in your meals, i've never tried pumpkin served that way.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is pumpkin cooked with garlic and dried shrimp.
DeleteMe gusta la calabaza te mando un beso
