Jolly Rice and Mangosteen painting 山竹果 Friday, November 21, 2008
Today's Painting of the day, we will look at an enchanting oil painting by Supreme Master Ching Hai entitled "Mangosteen" 山竹果
Mangosteen is often called the "Queen of Fruits". It has a soft, juiyc flesh within a hard fibre shell which is easy to break. If you get the juice stain on your clothes, it can be hard to wash off. It is said to counter the "heatiness" you get from eating too much durian, the "King of Fruits".
At Loving Hut, Suntec Singapore, the recommended dish of the day is the jolly Jolly Rice.
Beautiful to look at and delicious to taste, this is heavenly food ! Yummy !! Lots of vegetable goodness for your body and soul.
From Bible, King James Version, Isaiah 1:11-16
11 To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.
12 When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?
13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.
15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
16 Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
以 賽 亞 書 1:11-16 (Chinese Union Version (Traditional))
Chinese Union Version (Traditional) (CUV)
11 耶 和 華 說 ： 你 們 所 獻 的 許 多 祭 物 與 我 何 益 呢 ？ 公 綿 羊 的 燔 祭 和 肥 畜 的 脂 油 ， 我 已 經 夠 了 ； 公 牛 的 血 ， 羊 羔 的 血 ， 公 山 羊 的 血 ， 我 都 不 喜 悅 。
12 你 們 來 朝 見 我 ， 誰 向 你 們 討 這 些 ， 使 你 們 踐 踏 我 的 院 宇 呢 ？
13 你 們 不 要 再 獻 虛 浮 的 供 物 。 香 品 是 我 所 憎 惡 的 ； 月 朔 和 安 息 日 ， 並 宣 召 的 大 會 ， 也 是 我 所 憎 惡 的 ； 作 罪 孽 ， 又 守 嚴 肅 會 ， 我 也 不 能 容 忍 。
14 你 們 的 月 朔 和 節 期 ， 我 心 裡 恨 惡 ， 我 都 以 為 麻 煩 ； 我 擔 當 ， 便 不 耐 煩 。
15 你 們 舉 手 禱 告 ， 我 必 遮 眼 不 看 ； 就 是 你 們 多 多 地 祈 禱 ， 我 也 不 聽 。 你 們 的 手 都 滿 了 殺 人 的 血 。
16 你 們 要 洗 濯 、 自 潔 ， 從 我 眼 前 除 掉 你 們 的 惡 行 ， 要 止 住 作 惡 ，

Before we present today's dish at Loving Hut Singapore, we shall present Supreme Master Ching Hai's painting called Nostalgia 乡愁
This is a painting showing a Golden Dragon Fruit cut in half and exposing many seeds.
The Dragon Fruit is indigenous to Au Lac ( Vietnam ) and is popular in Singapore as well. It is sweet, succulent and delicious. The seeds are very small and soft and fun to chew on.
While pondering this beautiful painting, we introduce the next Au Lac snack found at Loving Hut Singapore...
This is a delicious salad wrapped in translucent rice paper. Do you want to guess what are the ingredients inside ?
The ingredients are veggies, carrots, Au Lac noodle, vegetarian ham and some chillies.
Be sure to ask for no chilly if your kids don't take them.
Little rabbit took a bite and her face light up and she keep saying " Very nice.. Very nice.."
