Cameron Highlands - Day 2 Evening

Right after the ingredients were prepared, we commenced with the cooking competition with 2 members representing their families.

The competition begin with each representatives choosing a card. Each card states the type of ingredient which the participant will choose from. And with that, the representatives are required to whip up fantastic dishes!

At the end of the competition, the losing team will get to clean up the kitchen by washing the utensils while the winning team gets the BIG prize!

My eldest aunt won the competition with her fried 'Kailan with anchoves' and 'Mushroom soup'. Although these 2 dishes were not compatible as a combination, she still walked away with by beating the rest of the participant. Simply because her culinary skill were that marvelous! Great job Aunt!!

Everyone of us had have good time during the competition. We laughed and joked about each other's dishes. Some of us even tried to sabotage each other's dishes by eating the main ingredient. I bet i'm going to miss the fun time!

Immediately after the dinner, we went on with the barbecue session. There were chicken wings and sausages. Beers and other beverages were served. And you bet we ended with a bloated stomach!

The whole episode finally came to an end on the afternoon of day 3. But i'm already thinking of the next trip! Can't wait any further!

Cameron Highlands - Day 2 Morning

Day 2 began at this medium-sized farm owned by an old couple. The farm is cozy and everything else were simple. There were barns and other usual tools. But there's also a fatty dog who greeted us upon our arrival!

As soon as we entered the farm, we separated into 2 groups and started working.

During the session, i learnt to dig into trenches and planting the seeds. I also had the chance to help the rest by learning the proper way of watering the dug trenches. Everything were so tedious and i bet we all had fun working as a team!

The children were so happy collecting the strawberries and mini tomatoes in small baskets. They couldn't wait for a second to eat them directly as it looked really fresh! And they were also sweet and tasty as soon as we put them into our mouth =)

As soon as we finished the work at the farm, we went back to the old couple's kitchen and begun out cooking. The vegetables were really fresh and the quality couldn't be better. Everyone were on high spirit that we ate up everything on the lunch table!

We were so grateful to have met the old nanny and her lovely husband. They were to hospitable to us! I bet we won't be able to meet such friendly and kind people elsewhere!

We shop around the market, we bought a lot of vegetable, fruit, and fresh mushroom.

We also visited to plantation of "Boh-Tea", we bought few packets of tea leaf.
Before the day dark, we go back prepare for our special dinner.
