Homecooked Food At 130 Cafe, Ipoh

CAFE 130... That is what we used to call her when she invited us for dinner!

My friends and I love having dinner in her house cos she serves homecooked dishes most of the vegetables are homegrown as well.  We were invited to her home again few days ago and I did not particularly asked what dishes she was going to cook.  I just told her that I would be bringing one dish, a tiny dish.... LOL.... 

We reached her house around 5pm and everything was ready except for the bean sprouts which she was going to blanch as soon as we reached.  That is so thoughtful of her.... bean sprouts is best eaten while they are still fresh and hot.  As soon as she saw what my friend brought, she suddenly exclaimed... "Öh no, I forgot to cook rice!"   Fret not, fret not... I told her... we are not rice eaters nowadays and a big bowl of fried wanton noodles cooked by my friend, that is more than enough for the four of us!  LOL....

Good thing she did not remember to cook rice... 
Otherwise there would be leftover of either noodles or rice.... 
Fried meat balls... 
Minced meat, fish paste and ginger mixed.. 
Tasty dish!
Her homecooked BBQ Pork... aka Char Siew....
Very nicely done....
Soft and sweet pork belly.... 
My mini dish fried chicken... 
Fresh beansprouts garnished with garlic and oil.... 
Which is the most popular dish... 
Only the oil was left... LOL... 
What a scrumptious meal for the 4 of us!
Thank you Nancy for the yummy dinner!!
