Setahun Sekali,
Pergi Rumah Menteri.
Makan Free, Mesti Pergi,
Kalau Tak, Mesti Rugi.

Sebulan Mereka Berpuasa,
Sudah Sampai Masa Beraya,
Saya Tak Berpuasa,
Tapi Tumpang Beraya.

Awal awal Sudah Sampai, 
Sebab Nak Sangat Makan Tapai,
Pukul 10 Dah Ramai,
Tapi Meja VIP Tak Ramai.

Ada Ketupat Ada Rendang,
Bukan Raya Kalau Takda Lemang.
Sedap Kari Ayam Dengan Mee Goreng,
Makan Banyak Sampai Perut Kembung.

Duduk Semeja Dengan Orang Yang Tak Dikenali,
Tapi Takpa, Saya Orang Senang Didekati.
Setiap Setahun Datang Sekali,
Sedih, Tahun Depan Tak Dapat Datang Lagi.

It's only around 10.00am but people are already coming in droves.

Tents were set up both on the left and right side of the hall.

Very crowded.  Got to share table with strangers.

But we went to a nicer side.  VIP table? Well I am a VIP (Hehe)

Less people.

Food served at the open house.

Rendang, pulut, chicken curry, mee goreng, lemang, kuih, acar and ABC cendol.

Tapai. Fermented rice, contains alcohol but is served during raya.  Not sure how it goes.  But very nice to eat.

Guests were treated to some songs sang by a local band.
