A satisfactory lunch during a recent day trip to my hometown of Malacca.
Steamed frog with essence of chicken in lotus leaf. Bony, of course, but tender. We lapped up the broth, which truly tasted like chicken soup for the soul.
Crispy pork knuckle. Yummy, though the portion was puny for 25 ringgit.
Bean curd with scallops & broccoli. Tasted healthy, but not bland. Hurray!
Steamed chicken with Chinese sausage. Delightfully aromatic; sparks of gastronomic synergy flew between the sweet 'lap cheong' & the chunky chicken.
Baked prawns with glass noodles. Hearty and well-executed; no complaints.
