Lunch At XiWei, Ipoh

It looks like the rainy season is back. Last 2 nights were cool enough to sleep without using the air con.

This was last Saturday morning at about 7:40am.

At about 12:30, we went to pick up our friends for lunch. Just as we out out of our car in front of XiWei 1898, Mdan Ipoh Bestari, Ipoh, it started to rain.

Hot pandan lemon drink (refillable) included with all main sets (for dine-in only). Love this fragrant drink.

Hubby - Sambal Petai Nasi Lemak @ RM14.50

Friend A - Sambal Chili Fish Nasi Lemak @ RM16.50

This is their weekend special.

Friend B - Fish Balls Soup Ramen @ RM14.90

Minced meat dry ramen @ RM14.90 for me.

My dry ramen came with 2 fish balls in clear soup.

By the time we have finished our lunch, the rain has stopped.

Happy are those who are strong in the Lord,

who want above all else to follow your steps.

When they walk through the Valley of Weeping,

it will become a place of springs where pools of blessing

and refreshment collect after rains!

They will grow constantly in strength,

and each of them is invited to meet with the Lord in Zion.

(Psalm 84:5-7, The Living Bible-TLB)

Chapati With Mutton And Chicken Curries For Dinner

 Our day started as usual with a morning walk.

8:10am

After morning walk, we drove out to pick up our friends from a car service centre.

While waiting for our friends in front of the car service centre, we watch some cars being unloaded from this car transporter.

We met up with our friends again for dinner at Restoran & Kafe New Weng Fatt in Ipoh Garden.

We ordered the following in small portions from the chapati stall for 4 people to share.

Chicken curry.

Sardine curry.

Potato.

Cabbage

Chicken curry.

Dhall curry.

3 pieces of chapati.

We also ordered 10 sticks of chicken satay (grilled skewered chicken) but forgot to snap photo to show. All the above food is worth going back for.

On the way to our car, we passed by this bike.

I just had to stop to snap these photos.

Next, we drove to the Ipoh Stadium food court for dessert.

Hubby ordered corn cream with shaved ice.

Our friends ordered ice-kacang.

Our friend ordered crispy tofu with cucumber and yam bean salad for sharing.

We all enjoyed this very much.

Also a small plate of Chinese rojak for sharing.

When we ask the Lord's blessing upon our drinking from the cup

of wine at the Lord's Table, this means, doesn't it,

that all who drink it are sharing together the blessing of Christ's blood?

And when we break off pieces of the bread from the loaf

to eat there together, this shows that

we are sharing together in the benefits of his body.

(1 Corinthians 10:16, The Living Bible-TLB)

Lunch At Cafe Wonderland, Ipoh

First, I would like to apologize to my blogger friends who have not received my comments lately. Only recently, I found out by coincidence that my comments were not published on some of the posts that I have visited and commented. I don't know why or what went wrong. So sorry, if my comment does not appear on your posts.

The 1st time we wanted to visit Cafe Wonderland, our car broke down half way. The 2nd time saw a long queue waiting to be seated, so we went off to another place. Finally on this 3rd time which was on a Monday, there was no queue. We finally get to taste some of the food here.

Some of the food served here.

Hubby and I ordered the iced lemon water while our friend ordered iced coffee.

Hubby and I shared this bowl of assam laksa.

Our friend ordered this black or charcoal toast for sharing. This was his love at first taste.

This garlic bread also for sharing.

I took some snapshots while waiting for our food to be served.

Just enjoy the photos and decorations of this place.

The above is for Tuesday's Treasures.

We came across this strange plant at the parking lot.

It says here that this is the Screw Pine or Pandan Laut tree.

Screw pine (pandanus tectorius) is an evergreen tree that can grow 4 to 14 meters tall. It is supported by aerial roots that firmly anchor the tree to the ground. It also serves as a windbreak to protect coastal areas. Screw pine produces edible fruits resembling pineapples and its leaf fibers can be used for weaving.

This certain hope of being saved

is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls,

connecting us with God himself behind the sacred curtains of heaven.
