Ramadhan Treat

I just got back from a tiring whole-day journey to Batu Pahat yesterday to visit wife's uncle who passed away the night before due to old sick (sakit tua..hehe). On our way back we stopped by Uncle Esnawi's (also one of my wife's uncle)house just to say hello. At 4pm arrived at Kota Tinggi to drop my in-laws, then rushed back to Pasir Gudang to get ready for the Iftar at Tanjong Puteri Golf Resort.

Hey! I'm not gonna talk on what I've gone thru yesterday! I'm gonna talk of what's on the main topic of this post: Ramadhan Treat.

One of the "specialty" of having Ramadhan around is to have somebody to sponsor you for a berbuka puasa in a classy place. To date, I've been to nearly a dozen of Iftar invitations, all sponsored by either wife's subcontractor or my company's supplier.

However I see some bad things that can pop up when u are used to these kind of "habit" of going to sponsored Iftar treat:

1) As if you have loads of money but actually you have not

2) Having to eat more then usual.."Eh makanan tu aku tak try lagi lah!" which in parallel will make you feel dizzy "and try to find the surau with the fastest Tarawikh". ;)

3) Dapur tak berasap!

4) Will be waiting (hoping) for the same treat every year..hehehe

On a nother note, the good parts of it are:

1) Makan Free lah ! Apa lagi?

2) You can eat multiple types of food in one treat

3) You dont need to go to the Pasar Ramadhan to buy your food

4) Somebody serves you your drink! An you can ask whatever you want and still have the chap smiling at you.. Hehehehe


Sometimes I feel like we are demonstrating in silence over the order by Allah for fasting by eating a lot during berbuka, which I always do!
