Should we order Coca-cola for Open House?

Hari Raya will be upon us soon and so it's time to plan for our annual open house.

We've settled on the date and the menu, and will be ordering for 200 pax from the caterer we had for the last couple of years. Heard that other caterers are not taking orders anymore.

I do hope everything's OK with the menu - no mix-up or communication confusion because this particular caterer has yet to finalise her quotation.

C'mon lady, get on with it otherwise I may have to order from Singapore........ serious

(must remember to cut the coke off the menu then)

Zendra-Maria said...

Zendra-Maria said...

My dear Tommy, with shares in Pemanis, who needs friends lah hehe.

Our 200 are mainly extended kith and kin plus a few office people and neighbores... You come also lah, gimme your email and I'll mail you the entry password. But Abo national costume not allowed.

BTW do you realise that due to your connection to Pemanis, you're contributing to the escalating rise in diabetes in Malaysia? Notti, notti...

Tommy Yewfigure said...

Tommy

Lee said...

Hi Zendra, I love Coke....very well chilled of course.
Your rendang, ketupat semua suda ready? And the designer dodol grandmothers recipie?

Ada lemang or ikan masak lemak to go with the ketupat? How I miss all this today....

"Hello MAS....yes, a return to KL...pardon? No more seats left? Wat about next to captain? Cannot ahhh?
Sit in kitchen with the sarong stewardess?...ohhh, cannot also ahhh? I want to go my friend Zendra house eat her designer ketupat...Pardon? Ohhh, okay, I check bus station".
Ha ha, Lee.

Zendra-Maria said...

Kak Teh

I do not make kueh raya myself, much easier to just order from my saudara-mara.

Aiiyo that Singapore aunty simply hilarious - wonder what cookies she has for sale - maybe CocoNut Delights?

Zendra-Maria said...

Saya, that caterer still hasn't emailed me so I dare not confirm anything lah. Meanwhile the no. of available days are depleting cos my suku-sakat have already "choup"ed their dates. Hahaha it's always the same people we see wherever we go!

Zendra-Maria said...

Capt; Raya di pulau lah ye. Good for you to entertain your guests to some malay festive food. Bamboo rice - that would be something for them to write home about.

Zendra-Maria said...

Dear Lee, ketupat rendang will be prepared on the eve of hari raya. Dodol? hmmm I prefer the softer grandma ones that gum the teeth together. Though they don't keep as long as the harder ones which are more widely available nowadays.

Masak lemak ikan? you must mean masak lodeh? All kind of veggies, with tofu, tempeh, su'oon and died bean curd cooked in coconut kuah and eaten with nasi impit and sambal kacang. Wow scrumptious!

Hahaha sorry no more ticket - why not book now for next year?

Capt's Longhouse said...

Zendra !,,,today i made soup ayam and guna it to masak chicken rice in periok but tak jadi, so i goreng the nasi jadi nasi ayam goreng !!..best juga my latest creation yooo hahaha o.k nak sahur with the left over now with housekeeper Jane. haha.
,,,Tommy nak buat rendang anak ikan whale yang kena bahang shark baru baru ini ??
,,,terseluiah my tengkok, mana nak cari tukang urut ?? carried too much barang barang dari ECBW to shore yesterday..now suffering in pain,,,retired nurse back in Miri, nak buat guana ??

Y lah u make don’t know only, cheh! Gee I haven’t heard that word ‘chouped’ for a very long time….muahaha.

Zendra-Maria said...

Haha Tok Uban punya culinary skills - tak jadi, just adjust and modify!

Sesekali I resort to that too.

Zendra-Maria said...
