Yakitori

As a support to his fren, our Xmas dinner was at Yakitori.

a small cozy & comfy dining bar at Hotel Windsor with way above average Jap food.

10 dishes meal comprise of:
Appetizer platter, Sashimi platter, Kushiyaki platter, Wagyu Beef, King Prawn Tempura, Stewed soup, Sushi platter & Peach ice cream.
Can u imagine how over-stuffed i was!
*Burp*

Xmas Kids Party

it's Xmas!
And Mdc celebrate it by having a party in office.
To add cream to the cake, kids are allow!

the moment i stepped into office, the whole place is swamped with kids!
Luckily most are pretty well behaved & i must admit, they do add some fun to the party, esp En.

In preparation of Xmas

What a busy month!
Spent almost 3weeks preparing my Xmas gifts.
Buying, making & wrapping it.
It's the season for giving!
Here's wishing u peps a jolly & merry Xmas... better 2009 ahead!

Melaka trip

Went for a short trip to Melaka last weekend.
A food-filling trip with some cultural insights.

Some interesting foodies: Chicken Rice balls @ the size of fishballs; Satay Celup with overwhelming after-taste that u better don't overstuff; sweet brown sugar-ed cendol; Nyonya dumpling with blue colouring from Orchird flowers & giant Pau that is as big as my face!

Visited Baba & Nyonya Muesume to gain some knowledge about Peranakan (too bad cannot take pics inside); had a painful chinese style foot reflexology; stayed in new and well furnish Holiday Inn; shopped 5x at Jonkers St; experienced riding on trishaw & traveled on luxerious coach that is fitted with individual entertainment set.

But i do not foresee visiting again so soon.
As i have seen all that Melaka has to offer in general.

Andy Lau

Treated my parents to his concert as mum likes him.
This concert must be one of the most fanciful stage set up that I have seen so far.
Given his age, i must admit his physical appearance is still pretty much well maintain.
Look at his abs!

For a 40years old to sing and dance for 3hrs, he is consider one good fella!
No wonder tickets are sold out for both nights!

But sad to say, i think only about 60% of the songs ring a bell to me.
Guess im not this fan :p

Before & After

Quick update

Firstly, a big thanks to my gals for the concern.
我知道你们是爱我的!

Anyway, storm is over.

Besides meeting my gals over the past week, i attended a wedding & bump into a poly mate there.
So coincident that he is the cousin of the groom whom is jt's best buddy.
What a small world!

In addition, also went to do some Xmas shopping, which i really like the gift i got for my "receiver".
While on the street yesterday, noticed that cashiers of the retail stores are ringing non-stop.
i see every other person's hand holding a Gucci, Chanel, Burberry or LV carrier!
So who says we are having recession??
