Mei Let Restaurant @Bandar Pinggiran Subang.

Many of the shops near and around this restaurant is closed on 
Sunday evening.

The road leading to it can be dark and quite remote if you are not
not familiar with this area.

Business is brisk as their menu is varied and most of the diners looks
local and regulars.

They have air conditioned and smoking dining areas.

We ordered a house made silky smooth tofu with cloves of garlic
in a golden yellow sauce, steaming hot claypot pork belly with salted fish
 - fragrant and tasty, black vinegar pork trotter, stir fried cauliflower 
florets with oyster mushroom and fried squid with salted duck egg.

Overall a satisfying dinner with my family.

Parking is ample.

Red Lips Kueh Pie Tee Cups with fillings.

My mother is a Peranakan from Melaka, and she is a fabulous cook and we get to eat a lot of authentic Nyonya's dishes.

Kueh Pie Tee is one of them and it has been a favorite Peranakan delicacy for decades.

I remembered my mother used to make the kueh pie tee cups herself but not now !.

Now it is widely available in most supermarket-Red Lips Kueh Pie Tee Cups@S11/for 50 pieces, is one of the best around.

The Pie Tee cup is extremely fresh, crunchy and taste like an ice cream cone.

It is best to savor it with your favorite fillings.

Mine is shredded cooked yam bean, carrot, mushroom, shrimp and cuttle fish in a dark and light soy sauce-filled it up in a Pie Tee cup and topped with a spicy home made chillies/vinegar sauce.

COMPANY ANNUAL BUFFET DINNER

My company annual dinner are usually Eight course dinner affair, held at restaurant. This year's dinner was a bit low key, because of cost cutting. Tonight, buffet style dinner was held at our office cum warehouse, with the food catering done by WYK Catering Services at Rm32/person. For this dinner, we invited about 120 people plus guests, staff and our families. The food served was tasty, fresh and delicious and the guests had a nice time, with every one going for second round. There were 13 types of food and sweet desserts to sample plus the usual fried rice and fried vermicelli Siam style. For drinks we have free flowing beer, Coke, Sprite, Orange juice, mineral water and Chinese tea. Overall this dinner was a success and every one went home with a full stomach!

Three red and white canopy provided free of charge.

The decorations on the buffet tables.

Golden dragon eye-duck yolk encased with fish paste-yummy.

Sambal squid-curry with Petai- hot and spicy goes well with the fried rice.

Shark fin soup with crab meat-never expected to be serve this dish for buffet but was done just nice-would have tasted better with some black vinegar.

Vegetarian Abalone, mushroom-with lots of broccoli florets-the only green to balance off all the meat..

Superior braised sea treasure-with lots of soft and smooth shitake mushroom and and low quality sea cucumber.
