Delicious Dinner 39.

A series of home cooked dinner by my wife.

Steamed prawns with Chinese Shao Hsing wine-fresh, juicy and succulent.

Toasted peanuts and deep fried Anchovies tossed with oil blended dried red chillies with a sprinkling of coarse sugar-goes well with Teo Chew white porridge, plain white rice or eat it on it's own-can be kept for a few days in an air tight container.

Sliced crispy Bamboo pith shoots cooked with thin, sweet Enoki mushroom, green Gong Cai (King's Vegetable) and slivers of chicken meat-crunchy with a fusion of earthy flavors.

RESTORAN TEO CHEW MOI.

Nowadays, eating Teo Chew porridge with small plates of cooked food and tit bits for lunch or dinner is a trend.

Restoran Teo Chew Moi located opposite of the Giant Hypermart in Bandar Puteri, Puchong is riding on the bandwagon and thriving because of it.

Teo Chew porridge can be quite expensive because of the tendency to order more.
There are many varieties of visually, tempting cooked food to lure you and all of it goes with the hot and piping bowl of whole grain watery rice porridge which at Rm1.80/ is unlimited.

I was there with my family to try out the food and we came away full, happy, and contended.
