Let’s go out…

The Deepavali holidays for all schools in the country started on Friday so my girl was home by evening the day before. The next morning, we went over to visit the grandparents and the grandpa suggested going out for brunch.

Of course, as I have mentioned before, my dad has a few of his own favourite places and he would prefer to go to one of them instead of trying some place new or different. That was why we ended up here again and he had the Foochow fried noodles with char siew added (RM5.00)…

…again.

My girl ended up trying their fried rice (RM5.00)…

…and they sure had a lot of char siew in it. She was halfway through already when I finally found a place to park the car – parking in that area can be such a pain – so that is why you only get to see just one corner of her plate. Hehehehehe!!!! They were very generous with the serving so she could not finish, the small eater that she is, and no prize for guessing who ate it all up for her. After all, as they say, it’s a sin to waste…and yes, I thought it was really very very nice. For once, I can truthfully say that there is one place here in town where the fried rice is nicer than mine.

My missus also tried something different – their fried tang hoon/glass noodles (RM5.00)…

…and she said it was very nice. It certainly looks good, don’t you think?

I felt like having their very nice tomato kway teow (RM5.00)…

…so that was what I had that morning.

It got me wondering why I did not have any char siew in my plate of noodles and yet, the price was the same as the rest, the Foochow fried noodles especially so I asked the lady boss and she told me that a regular plate of fried kway teow with sauce/gravy…

…minus the char siew, would cost RM4.50 and they would charge 50 sen extra for the tomato sauce added…

…and if I wanted char siew, that would be RM5.50 altogether. Hmmm…it was good enough without the char siew, I think.

That certainly was a delightful outing with my girl and her grandpa – we certainly look forward to doing that a lot more when the end-of-year school holidays come around at the end of November.
