Buttered Fish At Wing Kee Restaurant, Ipoh Garden South, Ipoh

Classes are going to start tomorrow... and as usual before she goes back, she wants to consume all the food she loves so that the longing will not "taunt" her and make her miss Ipoh food... LOL....

One of her favourite dish is found here in Wing Kee Restaurant, she loves that one dish there where other places do not have.  Since there were only three of us, we ordered three dishes thinking that they would come out in small portions.  But to our surprise, each dish was as big as the other and I think they were enough for five persons instead of three...
Their steamed smooth eggs garnished with onions is a good choice....
Kids will love this dish... 
But for three persons, we really have to take big scoops on our plates....
so much so that I will not want this dish again for the next few months or so... LOL...
Saved by these sourish and spicy vegetables.. at least it neutralizes the steamed eggs...
Very nicely cooked... *gau suin gau lak*
There.... my girl's favourite dish of all times...
Only this restaurant has it... "Buttered Crispy Fried Talapia" 
*Lai Yau Yue*
Crispy and nice... each piece taken has a crunching sound...
Tell me... healthy or not...   LOL..
But thank goodness, they took the trouble to strain out the oil...
Just look at that... 
Enormous portions, right?
Can feed a family of five or six... surely....
Ok, as for the bill, it came to RM52... phewwww...
I was expecting something over RM60...

    The price is very reasonable. The second dish is so sour and spicy - will take many bowls of rice to finish eating it.

    Hi Claire, thank you for commenting on my post. Upper crossed syndrome is caused by back postures so it can be fixed. If not fixed when old will become really bent and cannot straighten up anymore.

      Hello Claire, I have updated my post to include two links on how to identify UCS and how to fix it. Perhaps you can check out my post again. I think in summary it means doing the correct exercise to fix it and don't hunch over computers with bad posture for a long time in one sitting.

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

First Day In The Royal Caribbean Cruise To Mexico

ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT.... gently down the sea....  Royal Caribbean, it is my second time following this giant vessel, the first time was from Singapore to Phuket, that was a very nice cruise.  So when my son mentioned that he found a good deal online, this time to Mexico, I agreed without hesitation.  Let's Go! A three nights stay with food and lodging only cost around $250 per person with at least one senior in per room.  Meals were either buffet style or fine dining, we can choose and cafes were opened 24 hours for us to rest and relax.  How not to resist... LOL...  And so here we are... just one week after landing in US, I was on the sea....  Looks small from afar...  It was a giant vessel with at least 14 floors.... On the way to embarking after Custom Clearance...  Our room for the next three nights....  Small and cosy.... And adjoining to my son's family room through a door...  The one with balcony cost a bit more...  A short briefing about safety after we checked in....
