Canning Garden Again

My favourite breakfast again, this is now a once week ritual affair, it will go on till I am "muak" (fedup) ... lol...
But last week we heard something unfortunate happened to the lady who sells the fish ball noodles at this shop. She is diagnosed with neck cancer and now she is under chemotherapy. Now manning her stall is her husband and another lady worker who is very "familiar" with me and my friend.

Well, we learn something from her... that is.. "don't work so hard, eat healthily and be happy."

healthy or not, I do not know..

but we are happily eating each day...

My Sunday Meal-To-Come

Sunday morning hasn't come yet but I am already thinking of what to eat for tomorrow... sei mou... one of my friends commented that I always think of eating only, nothing else is more important...

No la.. I am not like that.. its only that I have to plan ahead what to do, my routine, my appointments and what and where to go... Tomorrow my buddy will be coming, she is also very eager to take the below breakfast... it is our getting together once a week affair...
Both of us like the chee cheong fun (flour noodles) and varieties of fish balls (liew)..

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!

Central Coffeeshop In Cowan Street, IPOH

This afternoon after school, I took my girl to Central Coffeeshop, just opposite Fu San dim sum restaurant. This Central coffeeshop has been around for almost..... 30 years, ever since I was a kid and it is still there... wow... it can become a heritage landmark anytime...

My girl hasn't been to this shop before and we were browsing around thinking of what to order for our lunch. Then I saw this sign, chee cheong fun, Canning Garden....

For those who stay in Ipoh and u r in your 40s now, then u will know that this Canning Garden Chee Cheong Fun was once-upon-a-time very famous one...that time, this man was selling by the road side in canning garden , next to the football field.... Very popular among "dating couples" who would queued up to eat this for supper before they go home after their date :)

this is the infamous chee cheong fun of the 70s...

small plate like this cost RM2.50

this is pumpkin dessert...

i love the coconut eaten with this pumpkin kueh...

Chee Cheong Fun In IPOH Town

There are many stalls in IPOH selling chee cheong fun, my favourite is still the Waller Court one. The one below here is in a coffeeshop behind KFC town area. This is not bad too, smaller portion but just enough for me... not so oily and the pork skin is fabulous.... cheap too... just RM2.20 per plate like this.

looks ravishing?
