well.. they say the 1st 6 months of a relationship is always happy..then it goes neutral for a year..then after that u gotta work on it.. how bout 27 years?? thats the amount of time my dad and mom spent together.. and they're still happily together!!
so today we went to Chuai Heng restaurant in Kuchai Lama for a dinner.. (i wonder y am i there)..man.. the ratio of waiters to customers is 3:1!! dunno what happen..it was almost empty.. but i guess we got the best service..the plates got changed every few minutes... the teacup got topped up even when u just take a sip of tea..actually..its a bit annoying la..the food is certainly high class in everyway.. but it just lacks QUANTITY!! imagine..4 person 4 taufu.. and half a duck.. well.. i think the duck is premature..
lastly.. ordered some desserts.. i asked for 'xue ge'.or commonly known as 'snow jelly' or some other name.. then my dad was like...hhmm i think ill try that too.. after the waiter went off.. he's like.. is it some jelly dessert?? whats that actually?... i was like NO... dad ....its some frog's part (i think its the oesophagus) dried and simmered in sugar and boiled with dates and other herbs.. 'WHAT??!!!' aiiyer... haha.. but when it came..it was so nice..(for me...its a delicacy.. dunno what my dad actually thought) but he seems like hes enjoying.. and finished the whole bowl faster than me! everywan was happy in the end.. (i guess that includes the boss cos the bill was sky high)
Anyway.. really Thank God for my parents.. who look care of me all these years and still is..hope they enjoy life more each year..

Now about the frog thing... were you joking or is it actually true? how could dnow jelly be related to dried frog oesophagus simmered in sugar?? Hmm... Deserts are meant to be like ice kacang, ice cream, ice kacang or ice-cream!! lol
