Klang Christmas

Christmas Lunch

The tradition of a Christmas meal with Gratitude started in 2011 and continued in 2012. For some reason, it stopped, and we suddenly revived it in 2019. Immediately after Christmas morning mass, mum and I stepped on it to make it to Klang for a special lunch. Arrived at nearly the same time as SK and her globetrotter friend from Singapore, CG. They met at Stonehenge and kept in contact since. Gratitude had just removed the roast chicken from the oven, and was just beginning to plate it with the roasted vegetables. He had cooked up a storm to make up for the lost years. In addition to the chicken, there was a herbed salad with feta cheese, spicy aglio-olio spaghetti, potato salad, pork chops, and fruits. Everything was delicious. Gratitude really spoiled us. Dessert was Neopolitan ice cream with strawberries, and we even had Moscato during over post-lunch chat.

Ice Cream

Christmas dinner was with The Tribe back at Equine Park. Ordered Hakka dishes at Restoran Ker Jia Zhuang. Bored of the usual stuff, the selection there was pretty unique. Enjoyed the golden beancurd, stir-fried choisum with pork lard, salted pork fillet, and crispy roast chicken.

Christmas presents were unwrapped at my home, generating a huge amount of rubbish. I got a pair of red underwear, and a pair red swim trunks from SK. Fits the Christmas and future CNY theme.

A Malaysian guy who celebrates Christmas including Mass. Eats pork. I'm trying to figure you out. A Christian living in Malaysia?

I thought Malaysia was comprised of mostly Malay, and smaller percentage of Chinese and Indian. When I was in Malaysia I didn't seen pork anywhere. Even the international hotels I stayed at in KL had beef bacon at breakfast.

RB: We are a multiracial country, so we have different races, religions and cultures - Malays, Chinese, Indian.
Malaysian is not a race ;-)

Muslims can't eat pork, non-Muslims can. And yes pork is not served in hotels. You have to go the malls or restaurants to get pork.
