Mama's Speciality










If I am looking and craving for some Chinese food, it will be Mama's. She makes & cooks fantastic 'Foo Phei', chicken dishes and Fried 'Mee Hoon' with lots and lots of vegetables and lot more great stuff which I haven't got pictures of.

I will miss her very much and also her cooking when in the UK. Another thing I know I will miss is our authentic local food - Laksa @ Pasar Malam, Banana Leaf Rice @ Stadium & Kalai's in Old Town, Curry Noodles @ Ipoh Garden, Greentown & Old Town, Fried Kwei Teow @ Stadium, Fried Noodles/Rice with Basil @ Greentown, Penang hawker food and all the other places in Malaysia.

Miki's Visit















Miki came to visit us (Chie & I) during the Chinese New Year week (26 Jan - 07 Feb 2006). This was taken on her last day here in Ipoh. The last time she was here, they (Chie & Miki) missed 'Salim' Restaurant but made sure Miki came here this time. They enjoyed the 'Nasi Briyani' especially the sambal which came with it.

It was really great to see her again after 7 months. While she was here, it felt as if she never went home - Japan.

For the last 2 1/2 years, I've made good wonderful friends in my course of work. Some friends come and go. Some stay. They (both Chie & Miki) are for keeps. I believe Lai San is, too although we've only just met end of last year. I've had a wonderful time with them all. Bless them!!!
