Our friend has found a new place where we can enjoy a nice lunch served on a banana leaf. 

Daddy Food Cafe, opens from Mon to Sat, 10am to 4pm.

Serves banana leaf meals.

Entrance to the cafe.

A home converted into a cafe.

After walking through the entrance, let us check out the food.

All food freshly cooked and kept warm.

Different types of fried fish.

Mutton curry.

We ordered different varieties to taste, all served in small portions.

Sorry, I was eager to taste the delicious home cooked food that I totally forgot to take snapshots of what we have ordered for our lunch.

Hubby and I ordered the iced syrup water.

Thanks to our friend for this delightful and tasty banana leaf lunch.

If you are interested to dine-in or order food delivery....

That evening, hubby and I were in our car, on our way home.

I took the following snapshots.

About 7:40pm.

Praise the Lord, O heavens! Praise him from the skies!

Praise him, all his angels, all the armies of heaven.

Praise him, sun and moon and all you twinkling stars.

Praise him, skies above. Praise him, vapors high above the clouds.

Roast Chicken & 2 Slices Of Cake From Our Friends

Last week, just as I was about to prepare dinner, I received a call from our dear friend. She informed me that dinner is on the way to my house and told me not to cook.

In a short while, we received our dinner from Baker's Cottage.

The 1st item was a roast chicken.

The 2nd item was 2 slices of cake.

Thank you, dear friends for your kind thoughts and treat.

Sunrise at 7:05am on our morning walk.     I noticed that the tree we passed by that morning has started to bloom.

Google Lens identified this plant as Cassia Fistula or Golden Shower.

It is a joy to see these Golden Showers hanging down from the tree.

Plant the good seeds of righteousness,

and you will reap a crop of my love;

plow the hard ground of your hearts,

for now is the time to seek the Lord,

that he may come and shower salvation upon you.

(Hosea 10:12, The Living Bible-TLB)

Pumpkin With Dried Shrimp & Mixed Treasures Stew

The morning sky was dark and looked like it was going to rain any time.

This was just before 8am.

Sunlight shining down through the dark cloud.

Dinner for 2.

I bought 1 whole small size pumpkin just before the Chinese New Year. One and half months later, the pumpkin was still good.

Pumpkin cooked with chopped garlic and dried shrimps. I don't have spring onions, so I cut some Chinese chives from my garden and added to the pumpkin. I love this dish and I alone ate more than half the amount.

There were some items which I didn't finish using and were kept in the fridge, so I gathered them together to cook the above mixed treasures stew. The treasures in the dish: some arrowheads (ngaku), bony parts of a duck, some pork tendon, carrot, wood fungus, bean curd sticks, and a small can of abalone. There was more than enough to share with my neighbour.

Our yummy dinner with steamed brown rice for 2 people.

From my garden.

I am still waiting for this pineapple to ripen.

This tiny pineapple seems to be taking a long time to ripen and there are some baby shoots coming out from the base of the pineapple.

And I found that though God has made men upright,

each has turned away to follow his own downward road.
