Noodles - Chinese Style

I would rather choose to take noodle if I were to go out for lunch.

C and I were having lunch in this noodle restaurant near by the neighbourhood.

Although the taste of the noodle is good , those sauce was a bit cold for the noodles.

Perhaps they just didn't warm up the sauce before serving it to us.

Lunch Menu :

1. Braised Chicken Feet Noodle with Chinese Mushroom ( 凤爪冬菇面 )- for me.

2. Braised Pork Rib Noodles - for my friend.

Sweet Pea and Tofu Soup Kway Teow ( Rice Noodle )

What can you cook with these limited items ( chilli, sweet pea , cooked pork and tofu) with you ?

I would cut some lemongrass from the backyard just to make the soup taste better since I like lemongrass.

3 Women And Their Breakfast

These breakfast were ordered by 3 women.

I am the one who always hesitate what to eat when I go to a new eatery .

My friend strongly recommended prawn mee ( prawn noodle). 

It proved that she was right !

< Breakfast Menu for 3 Women >

1. Prawn Mee （虾面）- with big prawns , 1/2 hard boiled egg,vegetable and topped with some crackers. 

2. Shredded Chicken Hor Fun（ 鸡丝河粉 ) - served with prawns, pork slices and chives.

3. Extra Hot and Spicy Ban Mian ( 麻辣板面）-pork , vegetable and fried anchovies.

Breakfast : Wanton Noodle

It was a heavy breakfast .

The wanton noodle was given by my neighbour Fang- J.
And you will never get such a big portion of wanton noodle from the hawker or from the restaurant !

Breakfast Menu :

1. A bowl of wanton noodle with various ingredients - Chinese mushroom, wantons, braised chicken feet and mustard green

2. A mug of sugarless black coffee

Only Oranges for Lunch

Since I had a heavy breakfast , there would be no lunch for me.

Breakfast  Menu:

1. Char Koay Teow ( fried flat rice noodle) with lots of chilli. 
I told the hawker that I only liked to have pork slices and prawns to be fried with the noodle. These are fresh food. But no fish cake（鱼饼）for me because fish cake is processed food.

2. A cup of tea - wished to digest faster after taking the oily food.

Lunch Menu :

Three Oranges - 2 oranges were sweet ,the other was sour !

Beef Brisket Noodle （牛腩面）

My friend LP who came from Johor still ordered a cup of tea although she was in Ipoh old town , famous for its white coffee. 

Of course , I still stick with white coffee for breakfast.

It has become my favourite beef noodle in my "Eating list" .

A Lazy Day

To buy food from outside is the best thing you can do when you are lazy to cook and when you are hungry.
Some women even say that they have "no mood " to cook. I do say that sometimes.

The Lazy Menu:

1. Fried Koay Teow( RM4) with pork slices, prawns, green vegetables and bean sprout. 

1. Mixed Fruits?( RM2) - Guava, pineapple, umbra, and mangoes sprinkled with sour plum powder ( 酸梅粉). Eating mixed fruits in order to have a " balance diet" for the day.
