Merdeka Weekend

Visited the doctors on Friday with my mom. It seems that baby still doesn't seem like it going to come out this weekend. Still gaining weight so doc say could be another week. So we shall wait and see, in the meantime just take it easy.

Also, Quant Lynn was called to the Malaysian Bar today and now is a LAWYER!!!! We went there early in the morning, waited quite long as the Judge (My Lord = Yang Arif) has not arrived. E-Ling and Partners were there too. Finally after waiting for 1/2 hours the judge came. QL was the last one to be called. The first 2 person who was called has really long biographies of them. The 3rd person, had some complications with his BM exemption seeing that he went to school in Brunei, there were moments of panic there. But luckily it got sorted out and it was ok. The Judge really had lots to comments and was adding his 2 cents worth here and there (making really smart ass remarks) but he was really a funny guy. After the CALL, we adjourned outside to do some cam-hording. All pics are on my mom's camera, will have to wait for QL or Vic to send them to me.

We then went to Dragon-i for lunch in Sunway. Siu Long Pao and the Dong Pau Pork was so good...really yummy but mom said Esquire one better. After lunch sent vicky off to school then off we went to run our errands. By the time I got home, I was beat! So took a nap and by the time I got up it was dinner time. So since we didn't want to go far, decided to try this new Chicken Rice place @ Solaris called Tseng Chicken Rice. It was ok only, not that great, I still prefer PJ Satelite Chicken Rice. The other thing about this place it is also very pricey. For the same amount I could have eaten twice in PJ. Definately overly priced. This would be the first and last of us eating there again.

The next day, we went to lunch at Kar Heong Vietnamese Nooddle place. Then decided to go to the Curve. Getting there was a nightmare....jam like hell. Decided to try Midvalley also no luck. So came home and rest. In the evening, went to Chilis for dinner. We ordered the bottomless tostada chips, cajun chicken sandwich and the new "CRISPY HONEY-CHIPOTLE CHICKEN CRISPERS". Guess what happened...we ended up just sharing the new crispy chicken and had to doggie bag the cajun sandwich. It was just too yummy. Is a must try item. I absolutely LOVED it! Must order with mash potatoes...does not go too well with fries.



On Merdeka morning, decide to have Dim sum. So we had our breakfast at Jln Ipoh quite dissapointed as they only had the steam stuff. No fried dim sum. It was also expensive. Right after breakfast, we head on over to Curve & Ikano (needed to pick up breast pump accessories there) jalan-jalan for a bit since I'll be stuck at home for the rest of the week. On the way home stop by Village Grocer to pick up some groceries. Dinner we had fried noodles and fried rice at the back. Phil like the Yee Mee and Bee Hon Cantonese Fried Style :P


Next morning, we met my mom and sis for Dim Sum again but this time at Marcopolo Restaurant in Wisma Lim Foo Yong. Food was better than Jln Ipoh, more variety. Also as Hong Leong Credit Card holder, got promotion some more 50% off for Dim Sum on Sat and Public Hols for the month of Sept. Great Deal! If only we have known would have ordered more :P


All malls were quite packed, so we decided to stop by Hartamas Shopping Complex to see if the baby cot is ready. Nope still not ready yet....looks like it will take another week. Came home rested and as usual have to take my nap. Dinner time we went to Endoichi opposite Garden International for some Japanese food. I had unagi don...so yummy!

Came home just in time to watch house and called it the night. This whole weekend was just about shopping and eating :P

WAH! All the pictures of food is like torture to me man! We were just talking about Dragon-I a few days ago. We both miss the xiao long pau and so I went on the internet and get a recipe. I am going to try it next weekend.

The recipe looks like a LOT of work. No wonder they charge us RM2 per xiao long pau man!
