Snack At Souffle In Puchong

After lunch at Chef Chew Restaurant, our friends took us to check out some showrooms that they were interested in.

New development in PJ.

After that, we made a stop in Puchong for some snacks.

As we were walking from the car to Souffle, I saw this big fish above us.

I hope this big fish is properly fixed and secured.

Souffle is on the 1st floor of Kompleks Kenari, Jalan Puchong Jaya.

The young people did the ordering.

Matcha float.

Tiramisu Affogate.

Signature Waffle with ice cream.

Souffle cheese pancake.

From here, it was straight to Semenyih.

After our 3D2N away from home, I was relieved to see my fig plants doing well.

I was worried since I didn't get anyone to help water my plants.

The weather was kind to my plants.

Antique telephone.

I saw this displayed at a cafe when we were in Penang.

Coffee + Snacks At People's Park Chang Jiang White Coffee, Ipoh

After visiting the Tasek Cermin or Mirror Lake (here), we wanted some refreshment. A few places were mentioned and one of them is People's Park Chang Jiang, which our friends haven't been to. So, we drove to Ipoh old town.

The ladies ordered honey lemon.

Someone ordered unsweetened coffee-C with ice.

The glass jug came with the evaporated milk and ice cubes.

Another ordered unsweetened black coffee with ice.

We forgot to snap photo of the toast and 2 types of fried snacks that we ordered.

An old fashioned table lamp near us.

Traditional coffee/tea cloth filters.

Traditional metal door knockers used as drawer holders/pullers.

I like this traditional water jar.

An old fashioned dail phone.

Coffee tin with coffee/tea cup and saucer.

You can get free coffee/tea tasting and after that make your purchase.

As we were walking to our car, we passed by this cute kitty car.

For you have a new life.

It was not passed on to you from your parents,

for the life they gave you will fade away.

This new one will last forever, for it comes from Christ,

Delicious Durians In Penang

For this trip, our friend booked 2 rooms at Hotel Neo Penang for 1 night.

We reached the hotel just before 1pm.

Waited for our room keys.

There is a cafe next to the hotel lobby.

Opposite the hotel is this old coffee shop.

We were told that the economy rice (chap fun) here is very tasty.

Our rooms were on the 15th floor. I forgot to snap photos of the room. For RM130, we had a comfortable room with 2 single beds, TV, air-conditioned, kettle, tea and coffee sachets provided, in the room, hot & cold water, and hair dryer provided. 

View from our room.

Dark clouds looming over the island.

Looking down from our room, we can see the roofs of the older buildings.

It is a mixture of old and new high rise buildings.

~~~~~

We rested for about an hour in our rooms and then it was time to go out again for our durian snack.

Durians in plastic baskets.

We went for the non bud grafted "kampung" or "village" durians.

I think we had about 3 fruits with mixture of different tastes.

The durians are of thick creamy textures. ome are sweet and some with a tinge of bitter taste. I love the ones with bitter taste. We were told by our Penang friend to just enjoy the durians and worry about the payment later.

With this gadget, there is no need to use a knife and save the person a lot of effort.

Opposite this roadside durian stall, there is a stall selling roti canai durian but it was not open at that time. We wouldn't mind ordering some of this bread to try.

So let us feast upon him and grow strong in the Christian life,

leaving entirely behind us the cancerous old life

with all its hatreds and wickedness.

Let us feast instead upon the pure bread

of honor and sincerity and truth.

Snack Shopping In Teluk Intan - 2nd Stop, 1 Day Trip

After our breakfast in Kampar, we continued our journey to Teluk Intan. It was a nice, leisure drive without much traffic on the road.

We made a stop to relax and stretch our legs. As you can see from the photo, it looked hazy because of the overcast sky.

A friend pointed out to us this old police station that was left abandoned.

I took this snapshot from across the road. This old building is facing the river which is on the other side of the road.

Next, we drove to this biscuit shops to buy some biscuits and snacks.

Here are some of the stuff we bought from the biscuit shop. We bought dried prawn crackers, fried banana chips, coconut biscuits, and etc. All of them are locally made except for the coconut cookies which is made in Ipoh. We bought because it was one of hubby's favourite cookies.

I am curious about this plant in front of the biscuit shop.

Google Lens identified the above as Peanut Butter Fruits.

After the biscuit shop, we stopped here to buy boiled/steamed groundnuts.

We have plenty of time to spare, so we made another stop here by the river side.

The overcast sky blocked off the sun, so it was not very hot.

We were told that those white rectangular things on the other side of the river are fish farms.

We can see a few of them along the side of the river.

Nearby is a boat factory. Can you see the skeleton frame of a boat or trawler?

Time to get moving to Sungai Burung. We have made reservation for lunch.
