Initially, we wanted to have seafood porridge for lunch but it was closed. So my friend and I ended up having noodles for lunch at Tastefully Noodle House, Menglembu.
Shredded chicken noodle @ RM6.50 for my friend.
Pork noodle @ RM8.50 (without innards) for myself.
We both ordered monk fruit drink (loh hon koh).
Total cost of lunch was RM19.70.
My cranberry hibiscus has been infested with some kind of pest. I have trimmed off all the branches leaving behind about a foot of the plant. I hope it will grow back, if not, then it will be goodbye.

It was raining the whole afternoon and evening yesterday.
I cooked lotus root soup with carrot, red dates, goji berries and chicken breast meat for dinner. I cooked just enough for 2 bowls of soup so that we won't have to drink leftover soup the next day. Just this soup and some steamed brown rice for the 2 of us.
It is better to eat soup with someone you love
than steak with someone you hate.
(Proverbs 15:17, The Living Bible-TLB)
As always, I love all the noodle dishes especially the chicken hor fan!
ReplyDeleteThese days I go mostly for noodle soup.
DeleteReally, I cannot wait for retirement (difficult as Ingo is nearly 8 years older than me).
ReplyDeleteI will SO enjoy early morning walks with him, if I have to drag him, this is such a nice ritual!!!
Thank you for always sharing, I enjoy this always.
I never knew of/saw a cranberry hibiscus - beautiful. Best wishes it is OK.
Lotus root and goji berries are unknown here, but it looks ... like FUN to eat!
Thank you, Iris. Hubby and I started our morning walk about both of us retired.
DeleteThank you Nancy. Hopefully your cranberry hibiscus plant will grow after the pruning. Your soup looks delicious! It is suitable for your tummy as it is not spicy, right?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. Looks like the cranberry plant could be gone for good. Sigh....
DeleteStunning skies!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Roentare.
Delete...the lotus root has such an interesting shape.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tom.
DeleteLovely cranberry hibiscus.
ReplyDeleteI like lotus root soup but usually I use pork rib in the soup. Now with shortage of pork, I guess need to go for chicken.
I too prefer pork rib for boiling soup but now pork is expensive.
DeleteI love lotus roots! That's a great supper!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteI wish we had a noodle house around here. Poor Hibiscus!! Have you researched what kind of bugs there are, maybe there is a particular poison...
ReplyDeleteSo far there is no sign of life yet.
DeleteThat was a pretty sunrise.
ReplyDeleteThe soup looks like it would be warm and comforting on a rainy evening.
Thank you, Mimi.
DeleteBeautiful skies!

DeleteGood simple dinner. I'd be happy with soup, rice and a little dish of soy sauce.
