Dinner At Restoran Xi Lai Kitchen, Menglembu

Again we have to cancel our morning walk because it was drizzling. Even though we were early, reaching Ipoh old town at about 7:20am, the coffee shop that hubby wanted to go for the curry noodle was fully packed with customers. So, we decided to go to Kedai Kopi Sin Yoon Loong. I can't remember when it was the last time we were here, must have been many years.

We ordered 2 unsweetened coffee (kopi-c kosong).
2 plates of bbq pork wan ton noodle (char siew wanton mee).
Minced pork dumplings (wan tan).
My cranberry hibiscus plants are growing tall and blooming again.

That evening, we had dine-out dinner with friends. We went to a place in Menglembu new township which we have not been before.
We ordered pork belly with salted fish in claypot.
Crispy fried salted herbal chicken - half a chicken.
Fried brinjal with salted egg yolk.
We enjoyed the dinner very much and this place is worth revisiting.
Menu on the wall.
Comfortable place, not very crowded.

What is Kitty Kola? Kitty Kola was a cola flavoured soft drink. It came from England and was introduced in Sweden in 1953.


The Lord's wisdom founded the earth;
his understanding established all the universe and space.
The deep fountains of the earth were broken open by his knowledge,
and the skies poured down rain.
(Proverbs 3:19-20, The Living Bible-TLB)

    Kitty Kola, oh, cute. Also the chair, and her dress. I think Ingo has opened the cheap version of Kola, I´ll have a sip :-)

  17. The cranberry hibiscus is even more attractive due to the unusual colour of the leaves.
