2012.07.18_A meaningful dinner




During this working transition period, happy to meet my best frens, an old couple who is facing many challenges at these moment. Their positive attitude encourage me to be calm and dare to step out  @ think out of the box. Indeed, I really appreciate our meeting as we never know it might be our last farewell hahaha... During dinner time, I got to apologize to other customers as our laugh n talking noise were a bit laugh till some sharp eyesight staring at us. Since my frens transform become herbivore, we went to this Vietnamese Food at One Utama Shopping Mall, glad this was a wise choice. Although the price is slightly high but we enjoy the meals and service very much.
We have ordered:
  1. Flat rice roll ( Popiak)
  2. Fried Lotus Root and mixed veg)
  3. Pork Noodle ( non-halal restaurant)
  4. Beef Hue Set ( Vietnam Rice Noodle )
  5. Combo roll ( Mango roll, Fried sugarcane fishcake roll, Prawn roll)
  6. Vietnam Coffee
  7. Tidbit ( Peanut which cost MYR2.00)
This restaurant environment is cozy and spacious, not crowded and the meal dressing is nice anf attractive. For Beef Hue set, this restaurant serve a fried spring roll in a little rattan made basket, so cute and creative. However, it serves marinated white radish too, a very similar side dishes with Korean or Japanese food. Let me discover while i'm going Ho Chi Minh soon .. wakakakaka
The flat rice roll ( 肠粉)is typical HK dim sum style, not bad but a bit small portion. Luckily 3 of us able to grad one small roll .. ahahah
My fren who is funny enough and insist keep refilling the famous Vietnamese Coffee with hot water... She has requested and refilled 3 times!!! We only dare to order a cup as all of us has bad experiences ( insomnia after drank impact) with it. A small sip will do... Long time I didnt share drink or food with others... Hygiene? Health? Sanitary? In front of this couple, I rather follow my heart and do whatever suppose to do...

We are stupid enough to take photos with our newly bought smartphone, we are acting like old n IT idiots , shout to each others for slow taking pics process:  lighting @ contrast @ flash setting, how to turn on face detection setting and want to check the pic immediately, switching our phones from one to one. Other customers must feel very irritating.



Someone commented tht why I want to spend one hour driving to meet them. My answer is simple : 珍惜眼前人, feel gracious and appreciate whoever enlighten ur life.  May Lord look after this couple, grant them strength and wisdom to overcome this obstacles. Human efforts is limited but HE definitively can help us.
Looking forward to meet them soon....Yeah, another big feast... Any nice vegetarian restaurant recommend?
