Dinner & Oldies At Take A Break VIP Lounge

The evening after returning from our holiday in Cameron Highland, the six of us met up again for dinner at Take A Break VIP Lounge. This is my second visit to this place. The first visit was for lunch and this visit (2nd) was for dinner on a Friday evening.

For those who love to listen to oldies, this is a great place to visit on a Friday evening. You can even request for your favourite songs.

A nice comfortable place to enjoy your meal and some oldies.

We didn't stay too long because one of our friends who sleeps early had a hard time keeping his eyes open.

Bless me with life so that I can continue to obey you.

Open my eyes to see wonderful things in your Word.

Dinner At Durbar At FMS, Ipoh.

I have been to FMS only once before it was closed and it was a long time ago. Now the place is opened for business and this new business is named Durbar at FMS. There were good reviews and not so good reviews, still we were curious and wanted to try out their food for ourselves.

One fine weekday evening, 6 of us decided to pay a visit to Durbar. To avoid disappointment, I called up to make reservation for 6 people. 

We parked our car here beside the building.

We entered through this side door.

Lots of antique items to see.

Sweet Fellowship At The deClassroom Restaurant & Cafe, Ipoh.

It was the 4th day of the Chinese New Year celebration. Finally, we were able to agreed on the day and time that was convenient for the four of us to meet up for the new year. Our young friend, Edward chose Ipoh old town as the meeting place thinking that the Chinese New Year crowd would have all left Ipoh to return to their respective homes. To his surprise Ipoh old town was still crowded with tourist from far and near. Anyway we managed to park our cars and walked to one of the cafes that was open for business. It was the deClassroom Restaurant & Cafe at Jalan Market, Ipoh old town.

Late lunch for our young lady friend. She ordered this Creamy Mushroom Chicken Chop set with a glass of lemon tea and ice-cream @ MYR 22.90

For Edward, hubby and I, we ordered this Ham and Cheese Sandwich set to share. This set comes with a glass of orange juice @ MYR 14.90

These were our drinks to quench our thirst on a hot, sunny day.

A glass of iced white coffee @ MYR 5.50 was not in the picture.

Hubby ordered this Ahmad green tea (from London according to the tag) @ MYR 5.90 and I ordered an Apple & Celery juice @ MYR 6.90.

Cute table fan that helped to keep us cool. The air con was not cold enough.

I have a smaller verson of this fan that I am using in my kitchen.

This is the size of the fan compared to my hubby's hand.

I use God's mighty weapons, not those made by men,

 to knock down the devil's strongholds.

These weapons can break down every proud argument against God

and every wall that can be built to keep men from finding him.

With these weapons I can capture rebels and bring them back to God

and change them into men whose hearts' desire is obedience to Christ.

Sharing Some Of Our Breakfast Meals With You.

Talking about breakfast, we all have our own preferences. As a child, my mom used to cook porridge for me early in the morning. Besides porridge we also had bread with butter and jam plus a hot cup of tea, coffee or milo. My favourite then was toasted bread. I love the butter melting on the freshly toasted bread with a sprinkling of castor sugar on it.

There are many types of breakfast we get to enjoy but here in this post, I am sharing just a few of the breakfasts I usually eat. I will start with our breakfast for this morning which we ate at Restoran Sun Heng, Lorong Cecil Rae in Canning Garden.

We found that we like this clear soup noodle with bbq pork. The mint leaves are specially added because the lady boss knows I love mint leaves.

Some days, instead of noodle we will order the steamed buns with our drinks.

Our favourite is the steamed bun with sweet coconut filling.

But there are days, instead of plain white buns, the sweet lady will make pumpkin buns with coconut filling.

There are days we want to eat this steamed rice roll, which is known as "chee cheong fun". Then we will go to the corner shop at Kedai Makanan Canning Garden, Lorong Cecil Rae, Canning Garden. This is hubby's favourite. I am not a great fan of chee cheong fun but I enjoy eating this.

On days when hubby wanted to eat the pork noodle at Pusat Makanan Sun Hor Lok, I will sometimes order Nasi Lemak with a glass of herbal tea. Nasi Lemak is a fragrant rice dish cooked in coconut milk & pandan leaves and served with a spicy archovies sauce.

This Nasi Lemak comes with generous amount of spicy sambal sauce, some fried peanuts, a quarter hard boiled egg and fresh cucumber slices.

This is my kind of delicious Nasi Lemak.

If we are not in the mood to go far, then we will go somewhere nearer to home. One of the place will be Restoran Kee Tuck Seak where hubby will order the fried noodle with prawns and eggs.

Then I will order these from one of the stall manned by an elderly couple. 2 pieces of steamed yam cake and 2 vegetable dumplings.

There was once I order this sandwich from another stall.

This is a ham sandwich with plenty of cucumber strips.

A friend recommended these Portuguese egg tarts from Gold Vision cake shop.

I went to buy 2 to try and I was reminded of the ones in Macau.

First, I want to remind you that in the last days there will come scoffers

who will do every wrong they can think of and laugh at the truth.
