Home-cooked food? Looks like the food in the restaurants. You really could take good shots. Those food can make my cholestrol shoot up just by looking! I have never eaten some of the dishes you put up. Is it Cantonese or own concoction?
The reddish arrow head looks interesting. Never seen it before. Nice? I loves arrow head..especially with chinese sausages. Yumz!
wonda: I believe the Ju Hu Char is a Hokkien dish. Not too sure about the arrowhead and the soup though. Thanks again for the complements...
precious pea :Yah, arrowhead with the sausages are yummy too!
wmw,
Aiyo, I think you ordered those food from the restaurants eh? Look soooo good lah! haha! Like wonda said, I don't know some of the food leh. I don't know the arrow head, Ju Hu Char and the shrimp cookies. I wish I can have a try on all those food! hehe.
wmw, you mean to say you rarely have home cooked food? How I miss my mum's hai sim! The chicken feet looks so good...slurp. I also like the ju hu cha.....aiyoh, the lettuce looks just perfect for the ju hu cha.....SIGH!!
Can you tell the difference in taste between home cooked meals and restaurant food? :)

kok:No leh, seems I'm surrounded by great cooks. How blessed can I be for one who likes to eat??? Hee hee...These food usually served during CNY holidays? Quite famous one wor. Shrimp cookies might be new as that's Czar's copyright invention!
Judy : Hey! Judyyyyyyyyyyyyy.......How are you? Glad you don't intend to be a stranger! Thanks for still dropping by. Yah, rarely...eat out most of the time leh. The lettuce was so green and lovely! The difference in taste between the two? There's more love in home cooked and more MSG in the restaurant food! LOL...
i like the way your pineapple tarts have that wonderful twist on it.
so artistic!
keropok man : I would be glad to pass your message along to Czar, my friend, who baked these cookies.
WMW, ju hu char - my favourite dish! My mum cooks the best ju hu char and my mother-in-law cooks the best 'ngah koo' (arrowhead). MIL cooks the ngah koo with bean paste and 'siew yoke'. How I miss my mum's ju hu char for this year's CNY! (you know why) hiek! hiek! sob! sob!
I most certainly miss CNY!!! What is Ju Hu Char? I don't belive that I have heard of it before. Looking at the ngah ku really brings back many fond memories of growing up and celebrating CNY with the family. Hope you had fun, girl!! Happy CNY to everyone!
ilene : I really like the Ju Hu Char too...I like turnips basically. Nevermind, can cook Ju Hu Char anytime mah actually...not only for CNY.
Mrs Pitt : Ju Hu Char is a mixture of turnips, carrots, mushrooms and dried cuttlefish, chicken or pork. There are different styles in cooking and sometimes not all ingredients are used together. I normally like the ones with the vegetables and cuttlefish (shredded finely) - no chicken or pork. You eat it with the lettuce too, just like how we eat the arrowhead.
