Finger Eating Good

My colleagues held a small "Raya makan" in the office to mark the nearly ending Syawal... each of them prepared some food and brought them to the office.

Very nice gesture of them to treat us to these homecooked malay delicacies.... too bad I did not bring my camera to snap all the food displayed..

one of my colleagues laying out the food on the long table...
facing the camera are the main meals...

followed by some salads and sweeties...

love this fruit salad..
I think I "walloped"a lot of this.. hahaha...

my blue-eyed boy.... hahahaa...

I think the food is not enough, hor...
or perhaps this is FEG? Finger Eating Good?
OUCH...OUCH!!!

That's what I always tell my Chinese colleagues, that the Malays are very generous people especially during the festive season. They are willing to treat you all the good food without asking for anything in return. Chinese people... haha... a bit stingy la. As the saying goes:
Mou cheok sou, mou tuck king...

The food looks great!
What interests me is the photo of your co-worker wearing a scarf on her head, but you are not. Is she Muslim?

u know what I love abt the office Raya gathering ? The Malay colleagues will each bring their house specialty in tupperwares.. all filled with HOMECOOKED yummies.. better than any hotel spread :D

Daniel Chiam said...

Haha I wish to move into a bigger company where colleagues will bring food for hari raya, chinese new year and merry Christmas XD
