On Sunday night, I was invited by Mary and Alex to dinner…
The newly-weds tied the knot on the 4th day of Chinese New Year but the wedding reception was in Miri so I had to give it a miss as at that time, I was caught up with all the hassle and the mess over my daughter’s leaving for New Zealand.
Will, a friend of ours, joined us for the dinner and of course, we had to have the butter scotch prawns…
I guess by now everyone would be able to guess where we went for the dinner! LOL!!! I also ordered my favourite – the bean combination dish…
…and everybody loved it!
We also had this dish of pork ribs…
I think they marinated the meat with ang chau – the residue obtained from making Foochow red wine…and fried it. Very nice! And surprisingly, it was not oily at all.
Besides the above dishes, we had another vegetable dish – some Sabah greens…
…and their crab meat soup…
All in all, the bill came up to RM57.00, inclusive of rice and drinks for four persons. Personally, I feel it was a bit expensive – maybe somewhere in the region of RM50 or less would be more reasonable. But we enjoyed the food and I enjoyed the company too.
Thanks, Mary and Alex…and wishing the two of you everlasting happiness and all the best in the years ahead.
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
