Dry Curry Noodles At Kedai Kopi Yee Fatt, Ipoh

This was a Sunday morning. We were early and decided to have breakfast before going to church.

I suggested dry curry noodle at Kedai Kopi Yee Fatt.
We were one of the early customers. Plenty of empty tables.
Only a few tables were occupied.
Halfway through our breakfast, the place was filled up.
Hubby ordered a cup of unsweetened black coffee.
I didn't order any drink because I had plain water in the car.
We ordered dry curry noodles, with thick curry gravy.
(our preferred noodle, chicken curry and bbq pork)
When we reached home after church, our neighbour was waiting for us with the above for our lunch.
She bought for us a packet of nasi lemak, 2 pieces of yam cake, and....
2 packets of sweet porridge (bubur chacha).
Good thing we decided to return home straight from church.
I forgot where I took this snapshot of these Spider lily flowers.

A dear friend sent me the following photos that she took on her morning walk.

A pair of garden snails.
At one time, I used to have problem with garden snails in my garden. They will eat up all the leafy vegetables and tiny seedlings. Good thing, I no longer have this problem.


And now just as you trusted Christ to save you,
trust him, too, for each day's problems;
live in vital union with him.
(Colossians 2:6, The Living Bible-TLB)

Dinner At Restoran Chuen Kah Fook, Ipoh

On the same day as we had our lunch treat here at Sun Hung Ting Restaurant, we had our dinner at Restoran Chuen Kah Fook in the same vicinity with 4 other friends.

Evening sky at 5:53pm
I took a snapshot of the evening sky on the way to the restaurant. It looks like the world map.
~~~~~
We ordered the following dishes for 6 people.
Stewed pork leg with white radish (daikon).
We had the same dish for lunch. The one we had for lunch was more flavourful.
Vegetarian dish consisting of tofu puff, broccoli, shiitake mushroom, cabbage, baby corn, glass noodle, etc. I think they put in too much cornstarch slurry.
Taro with pumpkin dish. This is our favourite dish.
Stingray assam curry.
Good for those who can't take spicy food, too mild for us.
Total cost of dinner for 6 people - RM124
(incl. 6 small rice & Chinese tea).
Peacock flower
This plant is beside a field we passed by on our morning walk.


Praise him for the growing fields, for they display his greatness.
Let the trees of the forest rustle with praise.
(Psalm 96:12, The Living Bible-TLB)

Later in the morning, I received a call from a dear friend who is also my ex-colleague. She wanted to give us a lunch treat. We decided on a time convenient for both of us and we were to meet at Sun Hung Ting restaurant at the appointed time. By the time we reached, our friend has ordered all the dishes and we didn't have to wait long for the food to be served.
Stewed pork leg with white radish (daikon).
Stir fried baby French beans with garlic and salt.
Grouper fish slices curry with assorted vegetables.
Steamed herbal chicken (with tong kwai and gojiberries).
Our friend insisted on having dessert.
Flaky pancake with sweet lotus seed paste filling.
Followed by blended red beans sweet porridge. Just nice for us because it was not very sweet. Thanks to our friend for this scrumptious lunch.

Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for he is so good!
For his loving-kindness is forever.
(Psalm 118:29, The Living Bible-TLB)

Fish Slices + Seaweed With Thick Rice Vermicelli Noodle

One this particular morning, we woke up quite early. 

Sunrise at 6:50am
We were ready to start our morning walk.
But first, let me take some snapshots.
The moonlight lit up the place.
Not a very clear picture due to the poor lighting at 6:55am.
Our Bauhinia Kockiana in full bloom.
~~~~~
We had breakfast appointment with my ex-colleagues and friends.
A friend and I ordered this thick rice vermicelli with grouper fish slices and seaweed.
Hubby ordered pig stomach noodle.
Another friend ordered shredded chicken noodle - no photo.
We ordered a plate of chee cheong fun for sharing.
We also ordered roasted pork to share - no photo.
~~~~~
Simple home cooked dinner.
"Lala Otak-otak"
A friend gave 2 packs of "otak-otak". I took out 1 pack for dinner. I finished the whole thing because hubby doesn't like.
Hubby had most of this wild boar curry (RM10) bought from a nearby Indian stall.
I only need to cook the above dish: Pumpkin with dried shrimp, ginger slices and chopped garlic.
A satisfying dinner with steamed brown rice.


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)

If anyone says "I love God," but keeps on hating his brother, he is a liar;
for if he doesn't love his brother who is right there in front of him,
how can he love God whom he has never seen?
And God himself has said that
one must love not only God but his brother too.
(1 John 4:20, The Living Bible-TLB)
