My father turns 84 on THIS day, 19 August!
We celebrated last weekend with a Chinese course meal at Oriental Pavilion.
Now what's this? Baby back ribs with preserved plum tomatoes
Food was overall good. Though the 'cod fish' was served fried in batter and the 'Australian scallop' was mixed like fish-paste - why waste premium ingredients? Unless they weren't premium to begin with.... hmmmm.
Dessert of herbal 'turtles' in mango cream
84 times happy birthday!
6 grandkids - 1 has gone off to university
With everyone
My father is having some health issues which don't have clear causes and thus no clear remedies. Docs are mainly writing it off to 'old age' at this point. Praying this will improve. We very much want him around for a long time to come.
Happy belated birthday to your father! May your wish for him come true! 🙏🏻
ReplyDeleteThanks Mun!
DeleteNice photos and tasty food 😋 Are those manggis shaped desserts?
ReplyDeleteHey good spot! Dunno why the manggis shape but delicious served warm with coconut filling.
DeleteAre they Bao with Bao skins? So they are Bao with coconut fillings masquerading as manggis 😂
DeleteThe skin is towards pastry with layers. Not the soft bao type.
DeleteOh, like siew bao layers skin. Thanks for the clarification. 👍🏻 😊
DeleteHappy Belated Birthday to your father. Beautiful photos, Stacy. ❤️
