Just another Mother's Day

Monday, May 12, 2008

Mother's Day celebration was just like any other previous years. There's nothing much to hoo-hah about as all of us do the same thing each year. That is...going out as a whole family for dinner at a nice restaurant. We decided to dine at Summer Palace as usual so I shall not elaborate much on the dishes we had. The menu is the same...ALL THE TIME.

Apart from the non-stop, loud horrendous renditions of oldies by a group of ladies at the room next to us; we were having a peaceful time among ourselves. My cousin sis came back from Singapore for a couple of days so that made 12 of us in the room. I was too lazy to take pics cuz I wasn't in the mood lately. The only thing that captured my attention was the fish we had for dinner. It tasted pretty okay - not that it was bad but just not to my liking. I prefer steamed fish, especially white pomfret served fresh from the kitchen. Anyways, I had to take a pic of the fish cuz the way it was positioned on the plate was rather....interesting XD. Here you go!

Mother's Day celebration for this year was pretty interesting. For a change, we went to Bangsar Seafood Garden Restaurant for dinner. The ambience in both inside & outside the restaurant was classy, comforting & well-lit (but not too bright). Food was pretty delicious, of course. Desserts...I'd have to say, they were absolutely fantastic. The red bean tong sui was superb & not to forget the dark chocolatey cake which was given to all reservations courtesy of Mother's Day.

Indulging in that lovely cake was like a moment in heaven XD. Every inch of the cake is made from rich dark chocolate & other ingredients mixed together to perfection. Each bite will definitely blow you away. Too bad I don't have a camera to capture a shot of the cake. Apparently, the cake is homemade; specially ordered from this lady who goes by the name Mrs. McGregor. Ah, mat salleh...no wonder the cake tasted incredibly good. She left her cellphone number & email address on the box too ^^. *grins*

As part of the restaurant's marketing gimmick, the staff took a family photo of us using a Lumix camera & even offered to print it. I guess we didn't pay a slightly high priced 8 course meal for nothing :D. Here's how the pic turned out...




P.S. My aunt said I looked like Faye from F.I.R. Fyi, F.I.R is a Taiwanese band which consists of 1 female (vocalist) & 2 males (keyboardist & guitarist). It must be due to my curls XD
