MY HOMETOWN GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE - HAVING "SUP MERAH" WITH AN OLD FRIEND AND FAMILY


28th SPETEMBER 2018 ~ Puan Hanna Sheikh Mokhtar was in town with her family members and I was happy to meet her for an early dinner get together. They were here for the finals of National Level School Combo Competition held at RTM.


I suggested to meet at Selera Johor as there would be many food stalls selling local specialties but we were there quite late. The "Mee Rebus" and "Laksa Johor" were already sold out and even a few stalls had been closed. We opted for "gear box" soups and one of them is "Sup Merah" [translate: red soup, as the gravy is red] which was eaten with baguette/bread. This should be another dish I could suggest to my other friends if they come to Johor Bahru.

It was a short meeting as we had to go to the auditorium in RTM to watch the finals of the Combo Competition, and YES, I also went to watch.

It is always a pleasure to see friends of the UPM TESL group when they are here in town. Thanks Puan Hanna and family for the time and company.
