December Part 2

I attended three weddings this month.
First one was in KL Tower Banquet Hall. We were given stickers to stick on our clothes so to entitle for free ride up the tower.
The picture of the newly wed is pasted on the drinking bottle.....something different!

The banquet hall has many pillars due to its shape. There was one in front of me and i was not able to see whats going on the stage.

Crispy Fried Chicken is very tasty.
This is dessert : Ice-creamThe halal wedding food served in this KL Tower was surprisingly good and delicious.

Second wedding was in Bankers' Club in Amoda Building, KL.
Blue cup cakes were served at the reception area.

Part of the 8 course wedding meals :
The halal wedding food was equally good and delicious.


The third wedding was in Taiping : Soon Lee Seafood Restaurant , opposite the Champagne Hotel. I am not going the write much about the food as most wedding meals are almost the same.




But how could one not eating at the local hawkers' fare when you are in Taiping. We went to Kedai Kopi Bai Leng, near the Lake Garden.

Fried Kueh Teow, hubby asked for 'kah liu' (add extra prawn/cockles), got wok hei but a bit oily.
Pie Tee, some may find it bland but I think it is very tasty. As I grow older, i tend to avoid food that are to rich ( such as too creamy coconut milk, too spicy etc)
Seafood Noodles, hubby asked for 'kah liu'. I think it is tasty but hubby said not nice. I think because of the 'kansui' from the yellow noodles. Hubby doesn't eat meehoon and I don't really like the yellow mee so we finished the seafood and left the yellow noodles behind.
Dried Wantan Mee, i ordered this becos I saw a lot of people ordered. I like the Char Siew, not the red or orange colored type but a bit dry. The noodles was tasty.


Before we go back to KL, we went to this coffeeshop called Rex Ais Kacang dan Minuman, located behing Mc Donald in Taiping.
I still prefer the original popiah, lots of vegetables and abit wet. I don't like the KL popiah, dry, too much sweet sauce and lots of crunchy stuff.
Actually, the reason we came to this coffeshop is for the Rojak. I like the rojak sauce, not too sweet and belachan bits in the sauce make this rojak very aromatic ( if u like belachan).

The Assam Laksa does not look appetising, but it is very tasty. The soup is the clear type and there are some fish chunk in the soup.
I ordered a bowl and Ching Tang, Clear Soup Noodles. I like the home made fried onion on top, not the usual factory mass produced type of fried onion, have been hearing a lot of scary story about the way they fried the onion ( dropping the plastic bag in the oil to make it crunchy!!).
Taiping is a very nice, quaint little town. The food is still cheap. The noodles are still below RM3 per bowl. I like the old trees along the Taiping Lake, very serene and peaceful.
