Chin Chin's Birthday at Friday's!

Chin Chin's birthday was in mid October.. so this is yes.. another delayed post which is 2 months back... outdated one :D Anyways, we chose Friday's of course partly with one reason la... cos they make the birthday girl/boy stand on the chair and make them sing before the crew sing him/her the birthday song... and a difficult task to blow the candle from a distance... kekeke...

We ordered the a set of 3 course meal, with appetizer (Fried mac & cheese), entree (Sizzling chicken & cheese) and dessert (Chocolate malt cake), and another main which is the Double-stacked chicken quesadillas.

Of course for dessert, again we wold not miss the Mocha mud pie! although there was a complimentary piece of chocolate malt cake for the birthday girl and another piece which came with the set meal! Food is sufficient for four person... and we have to takeaway the 2 piece of cake....

Birthday girl in action... :D

Photo session... there's this cute little boy from next table... very handsome and naughty as well :P

2008-1011 Outing with ex colleagues @ Hongkie recipe, Jusco Bdr Perda & Tennis today

Another outing with my ex colleagues from my first job :) HSBC, this year we manage to meet up more often than last year.. an achievement... since all of us have parted ways and busy with out lives and work... hahaha... But this outing is of course with an extra reason.... jeng jeng jeng... Melynda have finally distributing her red bomb! Her wedding invitation card!

Reception is on Christmas day and tea ceremony on the 28th, and she gladly requested us to be her ji mui-s. :D so extra stress there already.. haha.. want to become ju mui must then lose that extra kilos... sigh.. and it's like 2 weeks before the reception and the ceremony.... uh oh.. and i have not found a suitable dress and shoes!!! pressure ni...

Anyways, out outing this time is at Jusco Bandar Perda... my first time there... pretty huge place... bt din manage to explore.. cos went there for dinner (at Hongkie Recipe) and chit chatting session, then head for some drink at Autocity.... and of course... on top of all that, sure ot take photos la.. haha.. now i'm feeling that my blog is so full of food... gonna have to balance it up.. if only i can manage to post everything up including my Hong Kong Shenzhen Macau trip... which now i recall, my BKK trip photos and journal is also not posted.... i wonder if i can still remember everything :(

Photos all the way from the outing :D

It's near to Deepavali that time, so they have this little "kolam" nicely done.... and that's the restaurant we went for dinner, Hongkie Recipe

While waiting for another member to arrive, we ordered food, since she's not eating, and of course must have photo session.... as a memory and so we get to see if we have changed from the last outing :D

Selin arrived just right after we finished our meal.. with some leftovers :D And so happen, we're celebrating Bobo's birthday in advanced too :D bought her a small cake for the little celebration :D then Melynda proceeded to "attack" us with her bomb.. hahaha.... it's good to see that we remain so close even after we left HSBC.... we started work in September 2004 and have been close girl pals since.... 4 years and we still make the effort to meet each other to catch up once in a while :) i am like their little sister :) hehehe...

They serve pretty huge selections of food and they all come in big portion.... which is not bad.. pretty affordable but not cheap per se...

We ordered Fu Yong Egg rice set, some platter i can't remember the name and fried seafood udon.... with drinks each.. bill came i think around 80 bucks.... can't remember exact price...

Bobo said that the restaurant next door, i think it's korean, or was it somehting else.. hahaha... i only remember she mentioned it's not bad.. so we can go try that other time.. looking for the next outing.. pretty soon... anytime now within this 2 weeks.... then after that another gathering during Melynda's wedding... can't wait!! more updates to come... :D

I went tennis with the boys (colleagues from work.. Sean, Justin, Adrian, Teddy and Eric) today and since i have not played for so so long already.... i'm having the feeling that I will have difficulties waking up tomorrow.. :S haha.. Sean have totally given up on tennis (first and last for him)... Adrian is so near to, but still giving tennis and himself 3 months... haha.. others i think still ok... and it's like we pickup balls more than we play this round.. wakakaka... need to practice more often... losing momentum... forgot to take photos just now... too excited playing... wakaka.... after tennis go makan banana leaves rice somemore.. susah payah burn calories.. after that go pile up somemore... hahaha... anyways, gotta go pass out now... ZZzzZZzz

2008 Deepavali Open Houses

Was invited by 2 of my colleagues to their Deepavali open house... one was on the actual day, invited by Punitha, our receptionist at the office for a simple lunch.. went with Kar Wai and although it was simple, it's very thoughtful of her to invite us and it tasted so good! She usually will go back to her in law's every year but decided to stay home and have us around to celebrate together :D

She made roti jala, chapattti, chicken curry and she bought banana cake (my fav) too :D Homemade will always taste good :)

She made all this treats and cookies too! the Indian sweets was given by her neighbour...

And to prepare all the food, she only slept at 5 am and woke up really early again to welcome her guests.. hebat... it rained that afternoon so we stayed for a while chit chatting and left around 3 something so she could have her rest since she have not got enough sleep that day...

Few days later, was invited to Ganesan's open house... we did not stayed long as he had a lot of guests and family members around, so we bid bye bye after dinner and a short chit chatting

session...

Have not gone to open houses for years... glad to be invited to join in the celebration and fun...

I had Hello Kitty for dinner!

Hello Kitties to be precise.. cos i had not only one... but few of them!! muahahahaha *evil grin~

haha... It's hello Kitty cup noddles i got from HKG actually... i'm not a cruel person :P *angelic face come out d with my halo and little harp* wahahaa.. go vomit la... i know u want to...
did not eat it when i was there, i was too hungry the other day, the fastest food i can prepare to eat is this so i had to sacrifice hello kitty!!! it has got cute Hello Kitties inside!! but not sedap la.. cute only... made in Hong Kong.. i wonder if it has melamine inside... uh oh....

Lan Fong Yuen Pork Chop Bun!

During my trip to Hong Kong, I made the effort to go try some of the famous specialties from recommended restaurants... urm.. ok.. i have not posted about HKG trip yet.. even photos are not updated completely in facebook and i would need more time.. as usual... :D..

Anyways.. back to the topic.. i made the effort to try the roast goose and Century Egg porridge from Yung Kee, morning dim sum from Lin Heung, experience the hong kong "cha chan theng" wan tan noodles, Krespy Kreme donuts... haha.. okay la.. this is not any specialty la... just happen it taste so good and it's not here yet in Malaysia... when is it coming, hmm...i wonder... i made the effort to allocate some space in my tummy even though i was so full after the morning dim sum, so i can indulge still in one of the yummy donut! Sinful to the spare tyre, yes i admit... but cannot resist -lah!

So happen all these few famous is located at Central and i had the chance to try them... except for another recommended must eat which is the Lan Fong Yuen pork chop bun and "xi mut" stockings milk tea... and I COULD NOT LOCATE IT!!! finding the shop by the number, still unable to find it... very puzzled but that time i was too full, i did not ask poeple around for the shop...

I totally forgot about it until i found the shop weeks after i returned from Hong Kong... I FOUND IT IN ONE OF MY PHOTOS! cis! it was being blocked by some morning market stalls and i did not see it... sigh...

So happen my sis went for biz trip last month to Costa Rica, and since she went by Cathay, she managed to transit HKG, LAX and went to SFO before returning to PEN. So during her transit back, stopping at HKG, she manage to go out for a day tour HKG... and packed one pork chop bun from Lan Fong Yuen for me when she went for breakfast there.. wakakaka... ok la.. by the time the bun came back that night, it was cold d.. nonetheless, i enjoyed it still.. haha........
