Chinese New Year in Kampung Lubok Katak, Tapah.

Kampung Lubuk Katak located in Tapah is a predominantly Malay kampung with a 10% Chinese population-here everybody knows each other.

Here (my sil house) is where we spent most of our time on CNY - the children get to go online with free WIFI-gambling- was the meeting point for all friends and relatives to exchange angpows - eating homegrown vegetables, organic chicken and freshly picked fruits like papaya, coconuts, sugar cane and tapioca root....etc

As most of the Chinese kopi tiam are closed on the first and second day of the Chinese New Year festival.

Early morning breakfast are usually Massimo bread with butter either with meat floss or Bak Kwa, at the friendly Chapati stall near the Tapah toll plaza and wantan mee with roast chicken/BBQ pork

Nasi Lemak.
Well marinated fried chicken with curry powder.
Roast chicken and BBQ pork to go with the dry kon lo wantan mee.

Gambling. 
Home cooked Fried bee hoon and braised yee mee for lunch.

 A trip to Sungai Klah hot spring in Sungkai for some fun and later to Restoran Choy Kee for a quick lunch.



Top-Bottom-braised pig' trotter, pork roll and steamed fresh river prawns.


 Releasing of paper lanterns up into the starry night sky.


 It was a fun filled and happy CNY and to all friends and relatives till we meet again !

Nineteen81 Rumah Rehat Tapah.

We went back to my wife's kampung in Tapah, Perak on the First day of the CNY festival.

The hot and humid weather with a popped up temperature of around 38 c was a big no-no for all of us.


Besides going for an occasional dip in the cool and surprisingly clean Tapah river.........

....firing firecracker...

.... and a spot of gambling like Blackjack

We have some cooling off tea-time snack at the air conditioned Nineteen81 Rumah Rehat Tapah that comes with free WiFi.

Cucur Udang at Rm3.50 was a steal with a generously sized shrimp, a crisp crust and lovely soft deep fried dough inside-better than Nyonya Colors.

Heart shaped Chicken nuggets was a good snack-Rm4.50/.

Banana Split was the right tonic for the hot weather-Rm5.50/.

Their signature Rest House Tower ice cream-Rm7.50/.

and iced COOOOOoooooL drinks like lemon juice, hazel nut, syrup Bandung and lemon tea to quench our thirst..

A group photo of my young followers-thanks to them for their artistic contribution, inspiration, photo shoots and eating out together.

Total bill: Rm52/

Location:Bukit Rumah Rehat,

Jalan Stesyen, Tapah,
