THE 27TH DAY OF EID 1447H

The next group which arrived for the Eid visit were my ex-colleagues of SMK Dato' Jaafar who are teaching the main stream students [Form 1 - Form 5]. The group that came earlier were friends who are teaching the Form 6 students. [READ HERE] The only person who is now not in the same school is Puan Tan Yuan Yi but it was kind of her to still come over with the others.

They came right after classes were over at 2:40 p.m. The food prepared for them was something like the meal for tea time, Malaysian style.

Thanks to each and everyone who was at my house. There are less people now as many have already moved to other places. Hopefully I will see them again next year and many more years to come.

THERE IS ALWAYS A FIRST TIME AT AHMAD'S

Ahmad's Fried Chicken just started its business at Taman Pulai Mutiara. My gastronomic buddy, Mr. Redzuan, suggested we went there to try the food.

We were there at about 5:00 p.m. and the place was jam packed with diners and people taking away. It must be the excitement of trying the fried chicken at a new restaurant, or it was already pay day for government servants.

THE VERDICT: Mr. Redzuan reported the Beef Burger was the ordinary one. I had fried chicken and my spicy version was too curry-ful. You could already see it from the color of the chicken skin. The food was cheaper than other fast food restaurants I think, and you got the huge glasses for your drinks instead of the regular ones.

I met two ex-students of SMK Taman Universiti in the restaurant. One of them, Miss Rosieyati [forgive me if I got her name wrong] was there with her three children and was kind enough to pay for my meal. Today must be my lucky day.

Once Eid month has ended, I shall then continue with my regular gastronomic adventure.

 

THE 26TH DAY OF EID 1447H

The one must-visit house for Eid would be of Puan Aliah Hussein's, an ex-colleague of SMK Taman Universiti. Luckily I still managed to visit her towards the end of Eid month.

She had taken the trouble to prepare special food for the visit: Ketupat, Lodeh, Chicken Rendang and two types of sweet dessert.

Before I left, another ex-colleague, Puan Hashazah Hashim arrived. Too bad I could not stay to join the gossip session as I had another appointment with a friend right after.

Three more days to go for us to celebrate Eid.

THE FAREWELL SCRAP BOOK FROM THE YEAR 2014

The scrap book was produced my students of SMK Taman Universiti whom I taught them English when they were in Form 1 and 2. It was a farewell gift when I was transferred to another school.

Only now I had the time to upload the pages of the book to be documented. I have lost contact with everybody from this batch. I wonder how they are doing now.
