Suntec City dinner with Luis, PapaVoo came later to join us.

Some fruit tea.

Salmon with egg tornado rice.

They had promotion of free desert with one main.

Love their souffle pan cake.

Luis had cheesecake.

CNY bazzar from the top. This year hardly bought anything.

We were actually here for gala movie. I hate the crowd, this was my temporary hide-out.

We had complimentary movie tix and ang bao envelopes.

We gotten 2 tix with EU Travels and 1 tix from lucky draw.

Tix from EU came with popcorns.

Director and leads before the movie start.

The movie was surprisingly good, really enjoyed it.

CNY was early and it was a rush one. CNY Eve dinner stuck with Soup Restaurant cos Tung Lok business too good...

I steamed a marble goby, should had steamed 2.

The portion of chicken was very little.

Same old pen cai.

The bunny buns were cute.

Made myself good beef noodles with dumplings for brunch, I think the guys had Mcdonald's or something.

If you are wondering why we ate separately cos I wakes up very very late, like pass 12pm most of the time.

Steamed the buns for everybody though, it's their lunch after a heavy breakfast.

Dinner was Mcdonald's lolxx...

It was so rainy.

2 big fat chicken came into my sis house for shelter. They were very "fashionable" wearing bell bottoms. They pooped all over, shed feathers all over then left when the rain stopped lolxx... Then my poor sis had to clean up.

My baby sis came back from Abu Dhabi for CNY for the first time in 3 years. We were all so happy, I really treasured the time we had.

Still rainy.

Went Tai-Er at Suntec City.

Fish soup came in a super big plate, but it's actually not deep, just took up a lot of table space.

The dishes were nice but we all fell hopelessly in love with their tea.

Stired chicken.

Yummy cabbage.

Sichun noodles I think.

This was pork strips I think.

Fav CNY greeting verse.

Mochi with crushed peanut.

PapaVoo and Darren wore batik, sibei cute de...

Towards the end, we draw lots (求签) to read our "fortune" lolxx...

After lunch, movies!!!

Watched Donnie Yen's Sakra, I think the Durian show was better. Nevertheless, Gold Class seats are enjoyable, it's so much more comfortable.

CNY decor at Suntec was nice, I like.

Prive@Chijmes with sec school mates.

Nice chips.

Nice fries.

Okay mushroom soup, then the rest were disasters.

Over browned fish fillets.

Dry like dessert chicken, it's probably a leftover from the fridge.

My friend said the lobster was fishy.

Just had to forget about the lousy food, enjoyed champagne with friends.

Night view was really nice but I was too conscious to take nicer photos, only had these...

We chanced upon The Winery Tapas bar.

Patatas Bravas, it's their signature for a good reason.

Grilled octopus, damn nice.

We chit chat, but hearts remained a distant...

Very naughty, bites de..... but very cute.

We had a big feast at Oakwood. Most cooked by my cousin.

My cousin is a few years my senior, one of the most amazing woman I ever known, inspired by her a lot!

We went Holland to visit an aunt. She's those very typical kind of old relative which ppl couldn't really like... but so old liao... how many times can we visit right? She was very sour, still constantly wanted to compare a lot, we went haaahaahaa.... not answering much of her "enquiries". She said her grandchildren very clever, went university then asked how about my own children, I said I don't know lolxx.... She's not doing too well, not going to elaborate.... let her win if that makes her happy.
