Meet me there…

I had breakfast already that morning when I received word from Annie inviting me to meet her and her family here but I went anyway. I reckoned I could just sit around to chat and catch up since I had not seen them for quite a while now.

Annie had this…

…but she opted for hung ngang (big bihun) instead of the regular mee sua (thread/string noodles). She did let me try a bit and I thought it was all right but could do with a little bit more ginger and ang chiew (red wine). Talking about the wine, they certainly had a lot in this liver soup…

…that Annie also had. Nice, very nice!

The mum was grumbling about the kids getting up so late and said that she was so very hungry already. Ahhhhh!!!! That is something I am very familiar with. Kids these days love to sleep in…and wake up mid-morning or some, even later than that! She had this rice set…

…that was supposed to come with beef rendang but no, that wasn’t rendang. It was our Sarawak own daging masak hitam (meat, black-cooked). I tried a bit and I would say it was very nice – they do it quite well here, it seems.

Annie’s brother ordered these ham and egg sandwiches…

I saw a friend sharing a photograph of these on Facebook and I had been wanting to drop by to try. I love sandwiches! Somehow or other, I never did but that morning, I did have one and yes, it was good. They were definitely nicer than this egg and mayo toast…

…that Annie’s mum ordered but somehow or other, she did not eat any. I had to eat most of that and it was all right – I would prefer it with just egg, minus the mayo.

Annie’s nephew had this…

…and also this…

…and I really envied him because he was so tall and so thin!!! I wonder where all that food went to – if you look at me, you would know right away where all of mine ends up, right in the middle. Tsk! Tsk!

If I remember correctly, one of Annie’s twins also had the American breakfast set but I can’t recall what the other one had. Maybe like me, he just had a bit of this and that including the toasted kompia with minced meat filling…

I did not try that but Annie said it was rather salty.

The kids had these floats though…

…and kids being kids, they sure seemed to enjoy those very much.

It certainly was great getting to see everyone again…
