Today, Dad surprised us by announcing that he wasn't cooking dinner. Instead, we were going out to eat! 😄 Mum and I couldn't have been happier because we really don't want him cooking every single day. At 83, it's tiring to be preparing meals almost daily, and he deserves a well-earned break too. And this means no post-dinner cleaning up for me, yay!
So off we went to Dad's favourite tai chow restaurant, Sam Poh in Tambun. Even though there were only three of us—and we're all incredibly small eaters—Dad still ordered three dishes: stir-fried garoupa fish slices with ginger and scallions, salted egg yolk baby French beans, and claypot tofu. Everything was delicious, but there was no way we could finish it all, so we packed the leftovers home for tomorrow. 😋
Speaking of food, my youngest daughter told me today that UM has been providing free lunches to Foundation students since the start of her programme last month, and it will continue until September. It's nothing fancy—just a rice box with rice, cucumber slices, and a packet of curry, which I think contains chicken. Interestingly, no cutlery is provided, so everyone gets to enjoy their meal the beloved Malaysian way... with their hands! 😂. Sorry no photo of her lunch box because this girl forbids me from posting her photos.
