For dinner, we went to try out the claypot chicken rice in Bercham which a friend recommended.

And now, brothers, as I close this letter,

let me say this one more thing:

Fix your thoughts on what is true and good and right.

Think about things that are pure and lovely,

and dwell on the fine, good things in others.

Think about all you can praise God for and be glad about.

Dinner At Aneka Selera Restaurant Kam Wan, Ipoh Garden.

More than a year has passed since we last had dinner at Aneka Restaurant Kam Wan in Ipoh Garden. For this particular evening, we went to pick up a friend for dinner. It was a last minute decision and our friend has already boiled some soup. She packed her soup in a food carrier and brought it along for us to share.

That evening, I was hungry and I ordered rice with roast pork, bbq pork and vegetable acar to share with hubby.

Hubby went to order ikan panggang or bbq fish.

Our friend went to order clay post chicken rice.

Without knowing that I have ordered rice, our friend ordered clay pot noodle for us to share. The three of us ended up eating a dinner which was more than sufficient for 4 people.

Plus, we have to help our friend finish the soup that she had boiled.

That morning there was a lovely breaking of dawn at the park.

The soft light was seen through the branches of the trees and reflected on the pond.

While driving past, I spotted a white egret on the grass.

It was all by itself.

Saw this mourning dove looking for food.

Even though I went nearer, it didn't flew away.

It continued its search for food.

Linking to Saturday's Critters.

No one who is born of God will continue to sin,

because God's seed remains in them;

they cannot go on sinning,

because they have been born of God.

Shredded Chicken Noodle Or Kai Si Hor Fun At Cafe Little Nam Yeong, Ipoh.

We heard from friends that there were some changes or renovations going on in Restoran Jen Jen and most of the stalls have shifted to a nearby place within walking distance. One morning hubby wanted to eat the shredded chicken noodle or kai si hor fun. We stopped in front of Restoran Jen Jen but found it quite empty. Thanks to my friends who had earlier mentioned about the stalls having shifted to the nearby place, we drove over to Cafe Little Nam Yeong with a green signboard.

Most of the stalls from Restoran Jen Jen have shifted to Cafe Little Nam Yeong. The cafe is clean and the stalls are enjoying good business.

Shredded chicken noodle or kai si hor fun - hubby's favourite.

A plate of blanched bean sprout. Ipoh is famous for bean sprout.
