Ho Jiak Mixed Rice

A new mixed rice shop opened in the neighborhood, providing more option for the nearby residents to tapao or dine-in 'economically'. It is operated from 9:30am till 9pm daily. Variety of dishes, similar to '126 Mixed Rice' shop that is located nearby. I guess the business in the existing nearby mixed rice shops are affected following this new rival, as I see this place is getting more businesses during peak hours. The dishes are quite standard like any other stalls, tastewise OK, price is slightly lower than 126.
There is free flow soup and Chinese tea provided at the side counter, similar to 126. They even provide plastic bags to those who want to tapao.

[Below] Yam cake bought from pasar malam, 3 pieces for RM5. Stir-fried chai poh are packed together with the yam cake. Sambal and sweet sauce are provided in separate packets. I usually eat them plain without sauce, although it is nice to eat with all the sauces mixed too.

Tried out lunch set in Mami Porridge. Been to this place in 2019, that was 5 years ago...
As I wasn't keen on eating porridge, i tried out something else...
Bolognaise spaghetti😂
this item is so out of place! lol!
but then again, it's not really out-of-place entirely coz the minced pork that is used to cook porridge is used in this spaghetti....just apply a difference sauce😀
This set lunch came with barley drink.

Captured during the sunset...
so calm and serene....
 A total contrast with bustling activities inside the building😂
Yea, there is no day or night inside the casino as it is operating on 24 hours basis. 
I went there to gamble buy mooncakes...coz it is mid-autumn festival soon. So far, only Wing Wah (HK) and Genting brand are considered the quality ones. Others are too sweet and kinda crappy.
Also went to the SkyAvenue rooftop to enjoy the view, only to realize that the place was cordoned off for repair works due to the fire incident in June. This area is just a few steps away from 'Beauty in the Pot' restaurant.
I couldn't imagine those diners in the nearby hotpot restaurant would react when seeing the fire broke out while having their meal halfway.

The two scenery photos are so beautiful. I love to eat yam cake with sauce and chili. My friend bought mooncakes with salted egg yolk. You are really a frequent visitor to Genting Highlands. I love chap fan stalls when I want to eat a variety of dishes with rice.
