Shredded Chicken Noodle & Steamed Black Pomfret

On this particular Sunday, we went to one of our regular coffee shop for breakfast.

We ordered shredded chicken noodle (kai si hor fun).

Without prawns is RM5, with prawns is RM5.50.

We can now enjoy delicious kai si hor fun without having to drive out to town.

Home cooked dinner for 2.

I need to clear some extra minced meat already thawed in the fridge and I wanted to also clear 2 frozen black pomfret so that I can stock up some fresh ones.

Home grown green brinjals (eggplants) sauteed with garlic and minced meat.

Steamed black pomfret with chopped garlic, pickled radish (choy poh) and chili. Seasoned with oyster sauce, salt and sugar. Squeezed some lime juice over the steamed fish before serving. We enjoyed the overload topping.

This snapshot was taken in 2015 and I think it is still there.

This is near to the restaurant which is famous for serving frozen beer.

Your faithfulness extends to every generation,

like the earth you created; it endures by your decree,

for everything serves your plans.
