Catching Up With Kenji 2018

YTF

Kenji was back in KL as part of his long vacation. The last time we reconnected in Malaysia was in 2015. Asked him what food craving he had as a way to decide on the lunch venue. He answered YTF, so we went to Ker Yuen Kitchen in OUG, a convenient location for all of us. KH was with us but Sharky wasn't because he was in Europe with his family. Always a pleasure to see Kenji's eyes light up when the food arrives.

And with Kenji, a meal is never complete without dessert. We walked to the nearby Chaplang Cafe for coffee and waffles. When I saw the Bulatan Kampung Pandan Waffle on the menu, I ordered it without a second thought. Where can one find a waffle with four big scoops of g-Lat ice cream on a pandan waffle? The choice of flavours was also very Malaysian. Took the Neslo, Teh Tarik, Chocolate, and Coconut Gula Melaka. Kenji's sweet tooth was satisfied. The cafe is decorated with antiques and all sorts of old knick-knacks. Comics strips also covered the walls giving it a cheerful atmosphere.

Did lots of catching up with Kenji. And as usual, he would drop a bomb here and there. Never boring when talking with him. Stayed on until KH had to leave for another appointment. Although it was raining, we dashed back to my car, and I send Kenji home.

KH and I met up again during dinner, this time with Dan, KH's insurance agent. Dan wanted to treat us to dinner at Songkhla Thai Seafood Restaurant because of the policy referral that I gave him. That restaurant in Bandar Puteri Puchong is really quite popular. Didn't expect a line outside. Wonder if its due to the free steamed rice, ice cream, and fruits. Seafood tomyum, tamarind steamed fish, and stir-fried asparagus were pretty good. And the stir-fried glass noodles came with many ample-sized prawns.

The restaurant ran out of free ice cream, so we went to the Sangkaya next door. As Dan pointed out, the place was super quiet, perfect for working and appointments. But it also makes one wonder how long more can it last with such dismal traffic.
