Yum Yum Restaurant With My Food Gang

I TOLD MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS that I lost weight while in US even when there were abundant food laid on the table each day.  Yes, unbelievable but true though it does not make sense, right?  :)

During my absence, my girl bought a weighing scale online.  Ever since I got home, I weigh myself each morning and that is why I realize that I did not gain any weight at all..... alright, this happened two weeks ago and now two weeks later, I dare not say the same thing.  The moment I put my two legs on the machine, it showed a difference of 1 kg heavier than the last.... hmmmm... just in a matter of two weeks, I gained 1 kg!  No regrets, of course.. but must watch out from now on.....

How not to gain weight when I have foodie friends eating with me every now and then?  I miss them all when I was thousand of miles away.. and now I am back, food brought us together!  These dishes below were from Yum Yum restaurant along Persiaran Greenhill, Ipoh.  Most of the food here are Nyonya styled....

Lemongrass chicken...
A new dish for me to cook one of these days... 
Steamed Okra with Sambal Dried Prawns as toppings... 
Ju Hu Cha served with fresh lettuce for wrapping....
*Sengkuang or White Turnip*
Eggs with minced meat as toppings...
Fried eggplants...
For a moment, everyone thought it was French Fries... 
Total cost for this lunch was around RM70 plus with rice and drinks...
And lastly and not least, my Lunch gang for the day!

  3. I know why you did not gain any weight on the trip. Though you ate a lot, you hiked and walked and walked!! The Lemongrass chicken looks so yummy.

  6. Each time I visited Japan or China, I could easily loose 1-2 kgs after a week as I had to walk over 20,000 steps daily. This is something I hardly do in KL. I would drive my car even to buy grocery from the shop 0.25 km from home.
