Mom harvested rice wine. Brewing rice wine has been passed down for generations and mom is doing her part to keep the tradition alive. The result was a medium-bodied, semi-sweet, beautiful light orange-red coloured wine with delicate hints of apple and cereals.
Had a family gathering in Pusing. The Cheah brothers senior had a "barley water" party. Innocent me thought, "What on earth got to these people, suddenly becoming health freaks!". Alas, it was revealed that they were having toddy! Uncle Crab's favourite is Guinness-Toddy mix. This is the seniors' way of male-bonding. Naturally the juniors (Bart and yours truly) follow in their footsteps.
Enjoyed Pusing's forgotten favourites: Veggie Dumplings and Prawn Cakes. Not forgetting the refreshing all-time favourite drink: "Mun Tau Long" herbal jelly with syrup and coconut milk drink. Also indulged in roast pork on the rocks, yam cake, glutinous rice and "Pengat" a sweet dessert made of banana with gula melaka and santan.
