Taiping has a very powerful drawing point-food!!! My dear friend has been here for only three days but she has tasted many of our local favourites such as satay, prawn noodle, chendol, popiah, char kuey teow, nasi bryani and many others.
But the most memorable for her was the food served in my neighbour's home yesterday. It was the celebration of the coulpe's 32nd wedding anninversary. The food was catered by a famous restaurant in Bagan Serai. Both the vegetarian as well as the other dishes were simply mouth watering, though a bit too spicy for the Chinese palate. The mango chutney was very refreshing and went well with the grilled chilli chicken. The mutton kurma was a delight for my grandsons. Tofu cooked with spicy tomato sauce is a new version of vegetarian cusine. The culmination of all this rich and spicy food was the moist butter and almond cake topped with creamy royal icing.
All went away fully satiated!!!
Before her departure she will be doing more retail therapy in the main wet market in Taiping, buying rojak sauce, ikan bilis, lau wong kua, beh teh saw and ....I don't know what else!!!
