Teochew Porridge At Restoran Sin Hup Heng Chaozhou, Ipoh

Last Monday, our friends wanted to eat Teochew porridge. We agreed to meet at Restoran Sin Hup Heng Chaozhou at Jalan Theatre, Ipoh. We have to be there before the lunch crowd to get a table that can accommodate 4 people according to the requirement of MCO for physical distancing. We ordered the following dishes for 4 people.

Fried salted pork belly. Crispy on the outside and succulent on the inside.

Braised tofu in soy sauce.

Lala or clams cooked with salted soy beans.

Watercress with belacan or prawn paste.

Onion omelette

Crispy deep fried fish (precooked or "suk yu" in Cantonese).

Sweet potato porridge

~~~~~

After lunch, we drove over to Sangkaya because our friends wanted some ice-cream and coffee.

We ordered ice-cream to share and coffee for the men.

Chilling with good company on a nice quiet afternoon.

Be beautiful inside, in your hearts, with the lasting charm

of a gentle and quiet spirit that is so precious to God.

(1 Peter 3:4, The Living Bible-TLB)

Coconut Jelly Desserts At Jelly Bar, Bercham, Ipoh

I came to know about this place called Jelly Bar from a Facebook posting. I love coconut water and I have tasted coconut jelly and I love it. During one of our foodie outings, we wanted something light and we decided on Kafe Jelly Bar in Bercham. This was our first time here and we were looking forward to try the desserts here.

We arrived at about 3.30 pm on a weekend. At that time we were the only customers. I have the feeling of stepping into a children's nursery especially with this rainbow coloured bookshelf. 

Being the only customers, we had the freedom to take pictures with permission from the owner.

Beautiful tea sets and miniature toys on display on this pretty wooden showcase.

The walls were painted in pretty, soft colours.

Photos of jelly desserts and meaningful quotes displayed on the wall. 

More pictures and quotes on the wall.... 

Cute Emoji Plush for sale @ RM30 each. 

They take orders for Birthday Jelly cakes e.g. like this heart shaped design, etc.

We ordered 1 homemade Thailand coconut ice-cream (RM6.00),

consisting of sweet corn, coconut jelly, ice-cream and crunchies.

The lady boss explained that the ice-cream was not of creamy texture because she blended the coconut flesh together with the ice-cream.

We ordered 1 yam jelly (left) and the fragrant Thailand coconut jelly (right) was given free for us to taste. We enjoyed the coconut jelly very much.

Cost RM3.50 each. I love the fragrant coconut jelly!

Oops! Suddenly remembered we have not taken any picture of this Durian ice-cream! Left this little bit only - better than nothing to show..ha ha!
The durian ice-cream was also given free for us to taste.
I would love to come back for the fragrant coconut jelly and the durian ice-cream. They are lips smacking delights! 

Young man, do not resent it when God chasten and

corrects you, for His punishment is proof of His love.

Just as a father punishes a son He delights in

to make him better, so the Lord corrects you.

(Proverbs 3:11-12, TLB)
