Curry Noodles, Asam Laksa & Homemade Pork Burger

The rainy season has started. Even as I sit here preparing this post, it is now raining outside. It started raining from as early as about 6.10 am this morning until now (12:20 pm). No morning walk this morning. 

On a gloomy morning after a heavy downpour.

The rain stopped in time for us to enjoy our morning walk.

Enjoying the cool fresh air.

After the walk, we drove to Restoran Yee Lock for breakfast.

Delicious curry noodle (wet version) for me.

I like peppermint leaves.

Curry noodle (dry or not so wet version) for hubby.

No peppermint leave for hubby.

Harvest from my garden - green long okra, red okra and sweet potato leaves.

We ordered the following food for lunch at Pusat Makanan Ye Sing, near Paragon Hotel, Ipoh.

A bowl of Assam Laksa noodle

A friend recommended this homemade pork burger, so we ordered 1 to share. Thanks for the recommendation, this is worth trying.

This is the stall selling the homemade pork burger.

There are 4 items to choose from.

Don't you realize that you can choose your own master?

You can choose sin (with death) or else obedience (with acquittal).

The one to whom you offer yourself - he will take you

and be your master, and you will be his slave.

Lunch At Aud's by JJ Cafe, Ipoh.

Last week my friends and I had a lunch date again. We planned to have our lunch in Ipoh old town but when we reached the place, it was closed for renovation. We went to the 2nd place, and it was close too. On the way to the car park, we passed by Aud's by JJ Cafe. Since this place is new to us, we decided to have our lunch here.

A friend ordered Chamomile tea @ RM 10.

The tea came in this small porcelain pot.

I ordered this Ice Cube Coffee to try @ RM 13.

It came with instructions on how to enjoy the coffee.

As the ice cube coffee melts, the stronger and richer the coffee.

2 other friends ordered orange+apple juice @ RM 10 each.

We ordered the following for 4 people to share.

Spaghetti Pork Buddies @ RM 20.

Big Breakfast Scrambled Egg, etc. @ RM 25.

Pesto Pork Burger @ RM 13.

Dark coloured bread.

We also ordered a piece of carrot walnut cake and a piece of chocolate cake for RM 25.
This auntie totally forgot about taking the cake photos.

We were there before the lunch crowd.

 The cafe is located in one of these old shops.

 Many of the old shop fronts remained as in the old days.

 Aud's by JJ Cafe is on the left of U.S. Peter, along Jalan Sultan Yussof, Ipoh.

 This block is on the right side, on the same row.

The creepers on the shop fronts is in fashion.

This side wall is also covered with Blue Pea Creepers.

Fountain at the Ipoh Padang (Ipoh Field).
You can see lots of pigeons here (hidden by the black car)

How precious is your constant love, O God!
All humanity takes refuge in the shadow of your wings.
You feed them with blessings from your own table
and let them drink from your rivers of delight.
For you are the Fountain of life; our light is from your light.
(Psalm 36:7-9, The Living Bible-TLB)

Lunch With Ex-colleagues At Classic Dining, Fair Park, Ipoh.

We had planned to visit this ex-colleague of ours and it finally took place last Saturday. It happened to be a free day for most of us. After a few phone calls to the others, we were able to put our plan into action.

Our visit included taking our ex-colleague out for lunch at the Classic Dinning in Fair Park (main road). Fortunately, a table was available for 6 people as the rest were reserved. To avoid disappointment, it is safer to call and make reservation (tel: 05-5430153, 018-2730188).

For drink, we were recommended the "Flower Tea".

First, they brought these tiny cute teacups.

With a tiny 3D goldfish inside the cup.

A goldfish swimming in your tea!

And there is one teacup with a pair of goldfish.

Where to find these cute teacups?

Brush painting decoration on the wall.

Umbrella shaped lanterns hanging from the ceiling.

I think it was the lady boss who saw me taking pictures. So nice of her to ask whether I am interested to go upstairs to take a look. Only 3 were curious enough! Plenty of seating places for customers and also good for holding dinner parties.

Lantern decorations next to the wall.

Pretty lantern decoration.

More lantern decoration.

1st floor counter.

An antique dragon head door knocker.

The take away counter next to the front entrance.

Look out for these lanterns decoration in front of the restaurant.

Linking to Tuesday's Treasures & Image-in-ing.

Look after each other so that not one of you

will fail to find God's best blessings.

Watch out that no bitterness takes root among you,

for as it springs up it causes deep trouble,

hurting many in their spiritual lives.
