Takeaway Dishes From Sun Marpoh Restaurant, Ipoh

LAZY DAY... and I ended up calling the restaurant to prepare three dishes for dinner.  Just a short drive away, I ordered from Sun Marpoh restaurant, it is a family-like place, not the posh kind of restaurant and we have been regulars here ever since my first kid was born!  That means the restaurant has been around for at least 30 years, I think... LOL... 

Slowly as the years go by, the restaurant flourished until we do not feel like going there anymore cos we do not like waiting.  But since the Covid-19, with the MCO, CMCO and all the orders, everyone prefer to eat at home or go online delivery.  Many restaurants and eating stalls are naturally affected, business is not as good anymore.  The best and crowded restaurants are now turning quiet... however, we can still "help" them by ordering food for takeaway.  

It has been some time since we last ate fish so I ordered dishes which I could not cook in the house.  

Nestum chicken.... RM17
We miss this family dish... 
Kids' dish, I would say... 
LOL... 
My son's favourite....RM9
Eggplant with minced meat.... 
I requested for basil leaves too..
Unfortunately they did not have..... 
Steamed fish in sweet sour sauce.... RM30
I only did the ABC soup.... 
The rest including the rice was bought from the restaurant....
Their herbal soup is on the house... 
Whole cost came to RM57.50....
I think that is pretty reasonable... right?

    The food looks good. I love such old school restaurants...provided the old folks have not retired or passed away. Sometimes the young ones take over and they simply can't live up to the name. Sad.

    So nice staying near the restaurant. So convenient and price reasonable. Plus they even give free soup.

    The dishes all I like, especially the brinjal with minced meat and the nestum chicken. Price is so affordable plus the soup is on the house.

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....
