Happy Birthday My Lahling!

My lahling celebrated his birthday recently. A day before his birthday, I took him to Luck Farm, Damansara Utama for dinner.

My lahling is the sort of person who prefers to have rice for dinner, so the best place to take him to is a Chinese restaurant. None of that Italian nonsense, that's for sure hah..hah...

We arrived at the restaurant just before 6:00pm when there were still many tables available. It always pays to be early.

After we were seated, the menu was brought to us as well as a plate of peanuts. My lahling loves peanuts hee...hee...

I took the opportunity to redeem 16 (yes, 16 hah...hah...) skewers - we chose 8 lamb and 8 pork.

My lahling let me do the ordering, so these were the dishes that I chose.

This is the Stone Fried Pork Ribs. It is a very attractive looking dish with strips of corn, a generous sprinkling of crunchy chickpeas, sliced chilies and crinkle cut fries with deep fried marinated pork ribs underneath.

This is a dryish dish (hardly any gravy) and I found the spice seasoning on the very meaty pork ribs to be a bit strong.

The meat was tender and could be easily separated from the bone. I requested for less spicy (therefore less chilies) for my partner's benefit. 

This Homemade Eggplant came all bubbly with loads of gravy. The servers waited for me to snap a photo before using a pair of scissors to cut the eggplants. 

I enjoyed this dish and used the gravy to make the pork ribs taste more pleasing. 

This pot of soup is Cordyceps Huadiao Chicken Pot.

My partner loved this soup a lot and so did I. It was very tasty with loads of ingredients.

The skewers were very tasty but we could not finish all of them. So we packed the balance home.

The portion size here is big and we ordered one too many. Two dishes for us would be just nice (perhaps with an order of skewers). Suffice to say, we were stuffed.

As the evening progressed, more and more people came through the door. I believe and hope that Luck Farm will do well and have staying power.

When I went to settle the bill, again I had the opportunity to spin the box of golden balls again.

This time a ball came out with the number 10. The cashier added on another 10 to make my next redemption 20 skewers. Wah!

We'll have to bring more people along to help eat 20 skewers hee..hee...

My partner enjoyed the dinner and he was very impressed with the service and quality of the dishes. He told me that we will come back on my birthday. Yes, of course!

In the meantime, I can nip over from time to time (on carb days) to sample many more dishes (one at a time) from the menu.
