How would you like it…

Well, how would you like it – on a plate…

Anak Borneo On a plate

…or in a tray?

I did share a photo of the revised prices at this place that day but I thought I would just include them here again, two instead of one snapshot and ones that are a lot clearer than what I had previously, I guess.

Yes, I’ve been back there again and again and I’ve a perfectly valid reason for that. The not-so-great-news is that my mum is still at the medical centre…and I would have to juggle between her there and my dad at their house including staying the night there to keep him company or else he would be on his own. That would mean that there would hardly be any time to do our own cooking and it would be so convenient just to stop by there and eat – it is located right behind the medical centre plus we really enjoy all the stuff that they dish out.

Well, that day, we had everything on a plate. My missus had her favourite tapioca leaves…

…and this cangkuk manis & pumpkin combo…

…and the kacang ma with tuak chicken…

I also had the kacang ma chicken…

…but it was buried somewhere underneath that serving of the very nice pork and pineapple…

…and other than the cangkuk manis & pumpkin that my missus also had, I could not resist asking for the kasam ensabi (preserved vegetables) with pork belly…

…once again as I do enjoy that a lot. I asked the nice sweet girl for my rice to be banjiri (flooded) with the kacang ma gravy/sauce and that was exactly what she did…literally. Nice!

Here comes the best part! For our orders, my missus and I, I only had to fork out RM9.00 altogether, cheaper than those times when we had everything served in a tray and no, we did not feel like we were getting less – both the food and the pleasure. We would probably have it this way from now on…and incidentally, I loved the professionally-taken photograph of the dabai fried rice…

…on the counter so much that I simply had to snap a copy and share it here. Isn’t that absolutely stunning? Well, if you want a plate of that, it would cost you RM3.50 only…and all the rest that you pick would be charged accordingly.

They say that they open at 10 but my advice is not to go too early – they may not be open and even if they are, all the dishes may not have come out of the kitchen yet. I think the best time would be around 11.30 or noon to avoid the lunchtime crowd…and they told me that they would stay open till 3.30 p.m. but of course, you will have to take the chance if you go so late – there may not be much of anything left.
