Makan Angin In Ayer Baloi, Pontian.

Looks like semenjak this rumah pusaka in Ayer Baloi had been restored, we have been by-passing Muar (where MIL and FIL now lives)...Umar wants us to move to this beautiful house...Beautiful is his term for a house that has a huge compound where he can main basikal and play badminton with his brothers, and the next door boys...
So, last weekend, we decided to go back to Ayer Baloi, since it was a long weekend, and hubby and me declared Monday cuti for us and the kids also...hmm don't know when I'll be going back, because Khadijah and Yusof will be busy with their revision classes after this and I'll be heavy...waiting to meletop! Also there was cukur jambul at Pak Ngah's in JB on Friday and MIL decided to have a khenduri doa selamat on Sunday.......makan nasi ambeng!!! Sorrylah, I still haven't manage to put up the recipes for the lauks...there are so many of them!
Since pictures speak louder tahn words...enjoy these pictures.... FIL and Pak Ngah, his only brother, with Arisha, BIL's daughter with No.2.
Yeop, Azura, MIL and me.....HAABIS makan nasi ambeng...when I first got married, I couldn't savour the dish in the huge tray, I would quietly take a dinner plate and eat all by myself.....and not sharing or more appropriately described as berebut with the rest, ha ha!
Khadijah and Hajar, my two darling girls..
Hajar and Umar, my two babies, including Muhammad in my tummy...
Nasi ambeng...
The doa selamat and Yaasin...
Preparing the makan in the kitchen...Master Chef, Uda, Utih and Busu.
Hajar....
Hajar, sucking thum, just like Yusof when he was a baby.....

  2. KG,

    Nasi Ambeng is something very new to me. Tak pernah tau that it exists. I pun don't know if I can makan beramai2 in a single tray. I'm quite territorial when it comes to personal space. A trait that I dislike but have to live with.

  3. Hi KG

    When I was in JB, there was nasi ambeng but I shied away. Tak biasa kot. Hajar and Umar in the pic macam anak kucing manja with mama dia.
