Wedding Lunch of Iris Chow and Hoong Fong Chen@Sechuan Seafood Restaurant Sdn Bhd.

Chinese believes that the Year of the Dragon is a good year for marriages.

This beliefs give roaring businesses to Bridal Houses, Wedding Planners and Chinese restaurants in small towns and  cities all over the country..

This wedding lunch of my niece Iris Chow and her husband Hoong Fong Chen was held @ .
Sechuan@Teluk Intan, Perak.

The wedding lunch started on time, much better than those in the cities.

Was surprised with the food served - matching in taste, freshness, quality, quantity and much more cheaper in prices compared with those in KL or PJ.

 The lunch ended with mini ice-cream potong (bite sized) instead of sweet dessert and pastries.

 Parking is OK.

Noble House@Jln Delima.

Wedding anniversaries are good occasions to rekindle loving and long lasting relationships.

I attended my second Uncle and Auntie's 60th wedding anniversary dinner @ Noble House.

All of their children with spouses/husband and grand children were there to celebrate the joyful occasion with them.

There were karaoke singing of love songs for the couple, the unwrapping of presents, the candle blowing and making a wish before the slicing of a cheesecake to end the simple dinner. 

I am envious of them as I am only at my 32nd wedding anniversary.

The food presentation are good and pleasing to the eyes.

Parking is bearable.

Braised whole Abalone (tender with every bite) sitting on a piece of silky smooth bean curd topped with grounded dried oyster and fatt choy and blanched broccoli -bathed with a thick brown abalone sauce.

Fragrant crispy pork belly in Lettuce- julienned carrot, zucchini and spring onion-wrapped it up and chewed it -was a good exercise for the jaw- a bit salty to my liking.

After that we ended at Dragon i for dinner.

A nice and cosy Chinese restaurant with a great view of a shooting waterfall of the Park.

 As I am  not a rice eater, I ordered fried beef noodle to go with a few pieces of crunchy cucumber salad and a piece of xiao loong bao (Chinese soup/meat dumpling).

Overall it was a satisfying meal for the five of us.
