Tangerines & Cream Sundae - Lunar New Year Delight with New Zealand Natural

With Chinese New Year round the corner, most of us look forward to the holidays and for those celebrating; a time for reunions and merry making. As with most festivities, food is always present and we brace ourselves for waistline expansions :o). But of course, no matter what there's always room for desserts - we now have a dessert that is specially created by New Zealand Natural to add to the celebration.

Eating Pundut, Sitiawan

Yes, we're still in Sitiawan! :o) Charles took us around for a drive to give us some time to digest our dinner as he was adamant that we try another round of Kampua noodles; better than the one he took us to eat earlier that day. When asked where, he said "It's in Pundut". When asked what's the name of the stall, he answered "It's Pundut". "It's called Pundut because it's in Pundut", he added! After our earlier experience, why am I not surprised? Hahaha....Well, I just shrugged my shoulders and prepared myself for the great food.

We arrived at this wooden house .... standing right there, I love the feel of the place. This place definitely has character.

Where Exactly is Restaurant Hai Tien Ti in Sitiawan?

My brain keeps thinking that it's the weekend tomorrow. My "personal" calendar needs to be re-calibrated everytime there's a weekday public holiday (especially during mid week!). Just when I think that the weekend is here, my weekend joy gets interrupted...."Maaf, rancangan tergendala"! Ahhhh! But thank goodness it's Friday and the weekend is indeed around the corner. Yay!

Now, it's back to Sitiawan. The thing about eating in Sitiawan is that we just rely on the great hospitality of our friends to bring us around (thank you so much). The places we went to had no name cards, no addresses and look similar ...our Sitiawan friends don't know the addresses too. That's pretty much how things are in Sitiawan and I guess that's the simple charm of Sitiawan :o). Came dinner time in Sitiawan, we found ourselves at Restaurant Hai Tien Ti in Kampung Cina (and that's all we know)....

We left all the ordering to the hosts and soon we had these on our table ...
