Relax And Watch These Nyonya Cooking Recipes!

A lazy Sunday was spent blog-hopping to my faithful bloggers, be them local or international, I love to drop by and give a comment or two. One of them I visited was none other than Foongpc, I am sure many of us know him by now, his blog is visited by many daily, if you read his blog, you will agree with me that he really has a passion in writing and generous enough to give away prizes every now and then. This time he is promoting some online webisodes called Big Bibik And The Little Nyonyas.

Frankly I haven't watched them before until just some minutes ago. While watching on my laptop, my teenage girl couldn't help not joining me to watch the series. All about nyonya cooking style and recipes. Something very different from the shows we watched on TV and suitable for my blog here. Great acting to Big Bibik played by Kenny Chan is the main star, hilarious especially when the little nyonyas get a "bashing" sound on their heads when they couldn't get the things right! Go watch it, guys, gals... relax yourself and watch all the few episodes online here...

Aneka Selera In IPOH Garden

There is one stall in IPOH Garden Gourmet Square that sells tasty roasted duck, roasted chicken, roasted pork, roasted sausages.... and of course the sourish type of vegetables .. This stall opens at 6pm daily and even before it is opened, you can see people lining up or lingering around the stall waiting for the owner to open his stall.

When I am very hungry, I will order from this stall, Andy also loves eating from them... It is operated by husband and wife plus 2 helpers. IN another one or two hours, the meat mentioned above will be sold out, especially during weekends. So if you really want to try eating from this chicken duck stall, go as early as 6 or slightly after.... then you can get the opportunity to try out all their specialities....

i didnt order much this time..
just roasted chicken and some sausages...

Pan Mee In Perak Stadium

When Andy was back, both of us went out for dinner and we ended up eating at Perak Stadium food court. During the evenings, a whole stretch of stalls will be opened, depending on what you like to eat but most of the Ipoh's signature food will be there, though not as famous as others, you can still find what Ipoh normally offer... for instance, chicken koay teow, bean sprouts, curry noodles, fried mee various styles, wan ton mee, chee cheong fun, snacks like nyonya kueh, rojak, cuttlefish kangkung.. and many more...

This stall belongs to my friend... we love to come here to drink their blended dragon fruit juice which cost 2rm per glass. Lately they sell pan mee too... all operated by some foreigners and they are guys too... not to say they are very tasty but still the taste is fine with me...

My Chee Cheong Fun

My "yesterday's" breakfast in Cowan Street, corner shop famous for its curry noodles. But I don't really fancy hot spicy food in the morning, if stomach not good, whole day could be spent in the toilet....lol... My colleagues ordered curry but unfortunately, I didn't manage to snap them before they walloped ... it was kind of too late... everyone was kind of hungry especially in the early morning.

Mine was simple and yet sumptious, just chee cheong fun with pork skin and all sorts of sauces.. everything got! One of my colleague commented that she cannot take chee cheong fun in the morning, it sort of get stuck in her stomach....lol... as for me, no .. it is fine with me...

doesn't it look yummy?

few types of sauce...

and this is A Must Have too..
glutinious rice with sweet kaya...
Best!

Home Cooked Dishes At In-Laws

In my Caring Blog, I posted my Mid Autumn Dinner at my own mum's place... but this dinner here was held at my in-law's house, a week before the actual day. My sister-in-law is a good cook, she does all these by herself, in fact on every occasion, she will cook as much as she can, including cheese cakes and desserts... I really salute to her!

The next special occasion will be in December, of course, none other than Christmas... she suggested doing some real western food this year... Well, I am sure she will do them just fine.. and all I do is to wait anxiously for the day to come ...lol... (hey, I do the washing up, u know...)

Thank God for His Provision

Buntong Noodles In IPOH

Many Ipohians I know of, have not heard of Buntong noodles in town, near the Yau Tet Shin Street. Even for some who know about it, they did not talk much about this shop. As for me, I love the dry noodles, maybe it is because of the lard they put in it that makes it tastier. Other than that, the fried varieties of the fish paste are also nice, so is their beef stew soup as well.

Nowadays we do not have to take numbers anymore when we visit this shop... yes, u heard me right... take numbers! During the past years, one Apek would be at the counter giving out numbers to patrons....and one man with a microphone will call out numbers... lol.. something like visiting a clinic.... but now? No more, I guess business have dwindled.... Anyway, this shop is still worth visiting to... once awhile....
