Dining out with Linda and Benny

Malaysian Delights Al Fresco Style

We had the pleasure of playing host to Linda and Benny at our infamous slow shop.

We called it so because food is served agonizingly late (and slow) after you have made your order.

The food is good or I must have got used to it .

I have been eating here since my daughter and son was about knee height when they had to sit on two chairs placed one atop the other for height.

Linda is home to Malaysia for a week. She lives in Perth with her son and husband.

Benny drove home to Penang with his sister,  Linda and so before she flew home again, he thought it was most opportune that we do dinner.

They gave us a box of organic berries from Perth and Benny gave us the ubiquitous tau sah peah from the Mutiara Timor island.


We had a onioned fried chicken, baby french beans, clay-pot tofu, mixed vegetables and  pork belly fried with aromatic salt fish; and chased it down with a pot of Chinese tea.

We exchanged plenty of stories as dinner went along and it was a refreshing time away for the daily chores and drudgery.

We spent RM77 for the meal and RM7 for the tea.

Good  quality times.

Must have more of it.
