Before and after

Cahaya Chinese Restaurant

Requesting coffee with milk tends to confuse many people that I've encountered throughout Asia.  Here is a restaurant's version.  Hot milk in the coffee cup, expresso in a small pitcher, along with liquid sugar.












Dim Sum is one of my favorite meals in Cirebon.  Here is chicken feet - which really doesn't have meat- they just eat if for the skin. Can't say that I'm willing to try.

Seafood/fish extravaganza

Muscles 

Fried Fish cut open with hot chilies, tomatoes and shallots

Tuesday night we went to Tegal a shore town for a wonderful seafood feast.

Lobster in a wonderful sauce.

Green Lush Dessert

Matcha is powered green tea and then added to ice cream (a little bit healthier!) The Pink bubbles are chewy tapioca balls and they are added with the red beans.  This then is put all over shaved ice.

Medi's for dinner

I had the pleasure of spending the evening with Medi, her husband and two sons.  We attempted to make apple pie.  However the dough would not roll properly and the electric oven Medi bought had no temperature gauge!!!!!
However we had a great time.  Her husband, Harris steamed the fish in banana leaves and it was delicious!

George Town, Penang

George Town is the colorful, multicultural capital of the Malaysian island of Penang. Once an important Straits of Malacca trading hub, the city is known for its British colonial buildings, Chinese shophouses and various houses of worship.  I needed to leave the country of Indonesia since my visa expired, so Regina and I did a "visa run" weekend to Penang.  

Many road are closed to cars on Sunday, so we wandered around Sunday morning before heading to the airport.
