Mothers' Day Wishes

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL OF YE LADIES, single or married... hope you have a joyous day making this day a memorable one for your mum.... As for me, sorry, I did not make this day memorable for my own mum... *need spanking*.... I will not be taking her out for dinner due to these reasons...

One: Today all outlets will be jammed up in IPOH and the prices will be expensive and not-nice!
Two: We siblings have given my mum a good, yummy, scrumptious dinner TWO weeks back! hahaha... we are a Kiasu family... we want quality food for the money paid...
Three: I am "fully Booked" for tonight... glued to my badminton idols! gosh!!

OK, for these three reasons, I will not be celebrating Mother's Day eating outside, my mum knows I am a die-hard badminton fan, she understands me very well and thanks to my other sibling, she is taking my mum out for dinner! Yes!!

And for the rest of the pictures below, I want to dedicate them to my Over The Seas Sister.. this one is for you because you are the Main sponsor! hahahaha... Thank you, cheh cheh....

Here are the dishes we ordered for ourMama!

first dish, lang poon

the scrumptious prawns...

don't know why this have to be second dish all the time..

anyone knows why this is served second?

ginger steamed kampung kai (village chicken)

mixed vegetables with macodamia nuts..

buttered prawns...

my camera no battery suddenly
used handphone instead..

steamed cod fish

the noodles were nice.... but.... it was not for us!!
the waitress apologised..and took it back...

and replaced with this hakka fried noodles
which was very saltish and dark!

followed by the lotus pancake

and ... er... red bean groundut dessert..
not so nice too... wonder what went wrong..
but then walloped it all the same!

What is more important is that...
You sponsored us...

so.... We are Happy...

The kids are happier....

our mama-s enjoying the chewing...
Cute Cute!!

and Most Important....
Our Mums are Happy too!

    And it just RM490? Consider cheap already. You can't get that price with such big portion of "lang poon" (with so many prawns) and cod fish in KL!
