Our Journey to Edinburgh........Part 2

We left Livingston at around 1.30 p.m. and started the second leg of our journey to the City of Edinburgh.  The day before when we had our lunch at Taufik's place, it was planned for us all to have our lunch at the King Fahad Mosque - a very tasty pilao rice they said! So, we headed there.  Somehow, due to the cold and we were very hungry by the time we reached the mosque, we have forgotten to take any snapshot of the food that we had.  Our lunch yesterday :

(i)  6 plates of pilao rice (one for each of us)
(ii) lamb curry
(iii) 2 tandoori chickens
(iv) chicken curry
(v) 2 kebabs

And of course that's the first eating-out lunch we had since we arrived last September! And how delicious! Yummy!

Anyway, some snapshots for you! Enjoy!

  1. Salam Mia's Mom,

    Who care when hungry came, take fast before cold. Nice meal ah? When you said kebab, it bring back my dream to Mecca just 1 week ago.

    During Haj season kebab is my first choice there among other meal what I can take.

  2. Salam Tn Haji Zedmagel :-D

    No wonder you haven't been updating your blog - you are in Mecca! Syukur Alhamdulillah! Hopefully everything is well for you - my sister was there too - she just came back on December 15.

    Will there be any story on your pilgrimage in Garden in a Home?
