It is the fasting month once again for the muslim. In Malaysia, Ramadan (1430 Hijri) started on Sat 22 Aug and is expected to last until Sat 19 Sep 2009. One of the highlights, beside religous duties,night supplications, prayers, charities, etc, is of course food.This calls my attention to browse our picture collections looking for 'food'! And here are some of them - photos from (a) outing to Kak Shimah Restaurant, on top of a fishing pond in Kepong, 14 Jul 09, after the full day workshop session earlier in the day, (b) Mee Udang, Sg. Dua, Pulau Pinang, 14 Aug 09 - after a long trip from Shah Alam (dep. 3.30pm), we headed directly to this place, arriving at 8.45pm, (c) Hotel UiTM Pulau Pinang, during ASPRG Research Workshop, 15-16 Aug 09, and (d) Nurul Garden, Pulau Pinang, 15 Aug 09.
