Suppertime…

We were all too full after that lunch with the sweet desserts last Saturday so we decided to just skip dinner and head to the cathedral for the sunset service at 7.00 p.m. When the service ended, it was already past 8.00 p.m. and on our way home, we stopped by here…

…for supper. This hawker centre is just round the corner from my house and we did drop by not too long ago.

I went walking around the place to see what else they had at the stalls that I would want to try. I was thinking of having some porridge but I did not see anyone selling that. I did see one or two kampua noodle stalls and a couple selling toasted stuffed kompia, several selling all kinds of deep-fried stuff and some chu-char (cook-fry) stalls as well where you may order some dishes to go with rice or just settle for their fried noodle dishes. There is a row of Malay stalls on one side and you can order satay, barbecued chicken wings or one of those usual things you will find on their menu at places such as this.

Eventually, I spotted a stall and I thought I would like to try their lamb satay with Mongolian sauce (RM5.00 for 5, RM1.00 each)…

…and their beef and pork satay (Rm5.00 for 7)…

…also with the same Mongolian sauce from this stall there…

I did not order the chicken – 10 for RM5.00, 50 sen each for the same reason why I would never order chicken satay at the Malay stalls. I find the taste to be more on the mild side and I would prefer beef or lamb. This was the first time I had pork and yes, I would say I enjoyed it and also the beef and the lamb but Melissa particularly preferred the latter. The sauce was different from what we had here in that it was thicker and had a strong taste of peanut. Melissa guessed that perhaps they used peanut butter in it but we did not know for sure. Anyway, what was important was that it was very nice and we sure enjoyed that a lot.

I saw that they also had other stuff on their menu…

…and ordered their lor mee (RM6.00)…

…to see if it was any good. They certainly had a lot of ingredients in it and yes, it was very nice…

…but the gravy/soup, though very tasty and got everyone’s nod of approval, was not thick and gooey like the usual one in lor mee where they would add cornstarch to it. This was watery like what we would usually have in kway chap and had a very nice herbal/five-spice fragrance that was just right and not too strong at all.

Melissa ordered her favourite…

…and also the salad sotong…

…and the salad chicken roll…

She loves anything deep-fried so needless to say, she enjoyed all those very much.

I also ordered my favourite ang tao cendol here…

…with sago pearls and black grass jelly added but because we had so much to eat, I could barely finish half.

After enjoying our rather heavy supper to close our very delightful day, we headed home…
