Roti Canai and Teh Tarik...


Since the MCO I have not been going out for my favourite breakfast at the Mamak Restaurant. I do miss this combo which is sort of my lifeline ever since I was a child growing up in my father restaurant in Kuantan. Every morning he would prepare the Roti Canai for the many people who comes to the restaurant in the early morning for a simple breakfast of the Roti and the Tea with condensed milk. It was indeed a nutritious breakfast to start the day off.  As for us kids it was a breakfast we had every morning or snack at any time of the days. So until this age I am hooked to the combo of the Roti Canai and the Tea with the condense milk, except that at that time it is just call Teh and only now it is call Teh Tarik. Anyway I have always enjoyed taking the Roti Canai with the Teh Tarik.  Well folks as soon as the MCO was relax and folks were allow to go out to eat at the restaurant under an almost normal condition [with the condition of Social Distancing] I decided have an go at it. So yesterday I went to the favourite restaurant call Alif Maju at Ampang Point nearby and after getting a good table ordered the same. After awhile the Teh Tarik arrived and I took a first sip of it after such a long time; it has been a three months waits, ha ha!. Oh it tasted real good. Then as I was whiling the time away with my Smartphone the Roti Canai came with the Fork and Spoon placed in a glass of hot water to ensured it cleanness, sort of a new SOP at the restaurant. It looks like folks had to live what is now known as the New Normal because of the out break of the Convid 19 pandemic since February this year. It was tempting to see the Roti Canai still hot from frying in front of you. So without wasting any time after washing my hand using the hot water provided start eating it. Boy! it was just out of the world. So very good indeed. In between sipping the hot Teh Tarik. I always had the Roti Canai with the Teh Tarik; it the best combination. Well folks it does made my day.

Have a nice day.

The Flags in Colonial Malaya...

In this posting I want to talk about Flags. I was born in 1939 and grew up during the Japanese occupation of Malaya from 1941 to 1945. So the first flag I saw was the Japanese flag, the white flag with the red circle in the centre. With the return of the British authority the Union Jack was again flown everywhere. With the defeat of the Japanese and the return of the British authority in Malaya the school was reopened. Except for the Japanese school all other schools was closed during the Japanese occupation. In January 1946 I start schooling. I remember my father took me to Sekolah Melayu Teruntun at Jalan Gambut in Kuantan. From the shop-house at Wall Street [now Jalan Mahkota] where we live we walk across the Padang, then follow the path across the grassland behind the Kuantan District Office to the school. The school is across the road with a few Pokok Kelapa Bali planted in front near the roadside. Kelapa Bali is what the Oil Palm is now known. It was at the school tha...

My little garden . ..

I love gardening and with the little space that I got in front of my patio I planted many greens including the one that flowers throughout the years.  As they say flowers are the keepers of our Joys.  Indeed they are. I am always happy when looking at these wonderful God's creation. Here are some of the flowers that blooms in my little garden as well those that grows in front of the house. Enjoy it folks much as I had enjoyed growing them.  Have a nice day.
