It certainly looks like we are not alone – going for dinner/supper after the novena and sunset service on Saturday evenings at the church that we frequent here. Everytime we did that, wherever we went after the service, we would notice that there would be others who were in church earlier there as well…and last Saturday night was no exception.
We had not been here for a while now, my Dad’s favourite when he was still around and that night, my girl wanted their lemon chicken…
…which she feels is second to none here in Sibu compared to the ones that we had had elsewhere.
We wanted another meat dish so we had the kiam sor (salty and crispy/crusty) pork ribs…
…and yes, it was very good too.
The bitter gourd omelette…
…was all right and we would rank their tauhu tear, the Foochow-style tofu soup with canned oysters…
…among the best in town. Some do not taste anything like the authentic thing, more like shark’s fins soup with the bean curd and the oysters added.
The total for the four dishes was RM54.00 which I thought was very reasonable but my missus kept looking at the Foochow fried noodles that they were having at the other tables – my Dad loved the one here the most and would order that everytime he came here and at other times, he would come and buy it home and since she seemed to be craving for it and kept saying how good it looked, I ordered a plate with a special request for added char siew (RM5.50)…
…to share so that brought the total up to RM59.50. It sure looked like the prices of the noodles had gone up by 50 sen. Well, this place was never known to be cheap and a plate of noodles was already RM4.00 a plate when others were charging RM3.50-3.80…and now it is RM5.00, throw in another 50 sen if you want the char siew.
Together with the rice and drinks, the total altogether was RM70.90 but of course, what mattered most was how my girl enjoyed everything that night – it certainly was a worthwhile treat for her, coming home from her school in the jungle for the weekend, food therapy at its best!
