We arrived at KLIA on Saturday afternoon and Mandy met us at the airport to take us to the hotel. At around 6 in the evening, she took us to…
…for dinner with the rest of my TraxxFamily – not all of them, just Zee, Zul and Mubarak. We went to this place at the mall…
From the name, it sounds like a place for cannibals…or some amorous illicit activities involving some very delectable nyonyas. Hahahahaha!!! But I was pretty certain that I would have some real nyonya delights – not like the pale imitations that I had had back in Sibu at those so-called nyonya restuarants. I had the nasi kunyit with chicken rendang…
…which was very nice while my daughter enjoyed the nasi tomato with gulai ayam ros that she ordered…
My missus had the fried noodles…
…and my daughter’s good friend, Gin, had the pineapple fried rice, served in a pineapple this time…
We had some kuih pai tee for our side order…
…which, I thought, were not as nice as the ones I made and we can get cheaper and satisfactorily yummy ones in Sibu.
The rest has steamed rice with these dishes – fried beef with ginger…
…spicy assam fish…
…and sambal petai.
I tried a bit of each and found that they were all pretty o.k. For dessert, we had cendol…
…and ais kacang…
…and I had pulut hitam (black glutinous rice) with santan (coconut milk)…
…which was not that great. I think the one I had at New World in Penang was a lot nicer.
All in all, it was a delightful meal and needless to say, the company was great. The members of my “family” insisted on splitting the bill among them and giving as a treat, thanks so much – Mandy, Zee, Zul and Mubarak. It certainly was my pleasure to see you all…and we’ll get together again soon – in Sibu perhaps!
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
