YESSSSS!!!! I Finally got to dine in at Cheng Ho Restaurant in Seri Manjung. For your information, I have been unlucky three times already as far as getting to eat at this place is concerned. The first time I went was on a Friday and found out they were closed in the afternoon for the Jumaat prayers. The second time I went the restaurant was closed because the chef was sick. Then the third time, we reached there at 2.46 p.m. a minute after they stopped orders for lunch. I must be jinxed.

But at last I got to fulfil my wish of eating there when I brought Nurul Idliani, Nabilah and Kamariah for lunch. You see I am back in school today to finish some of my work as I was not around for 4 days last week. Nurul Idiani who happens to be the eldest child of my friend, Haji Hasnin came on behalf of her dad to send some of his materials to the office. For your information, I will be attending Nurul's wedding on 29th November and when I saw her I knew that if I brought her along, I would be able to break the jinx. Why? Because they say that brides-to-be are lucky and so are expectant mothers.

When we reached there, true enough, the place was open, the chef was healthy and we were on time. The waitress ushered us to a table and we promptly made our order. After finally getting to taste the food at Cheng Ho, I must say that I wasn't too impressed with the dishes. Sad to say, it wasn't worth my trouble as I had tasted better cooking in other restaurants.
