FAMILY, Father, Mother, I Love You!

It has been a long while since we have dinner as a big FAMILY in my mom's place... Since my kids are home, I suggested to my mom to cook up a BIG feast and gathering in her place... I know my mom will love it and so do WE!! LOL...

My mom can still cope up with some dishes and shy to say, I only managed to coop up one dish only!  Anyway, dishes aside.. as a family, we had a good time catching up with one another and what's up now....

As for the dishes... here are my mom's specialities!
Let me introduce....
 steamed chicken...
minced prawn fritters... (kids including ME love this!)
the stir fried prawns with garlic
hokkien dish... senkuang wrapped with lettuce...
abalone soup with fish maw....
hey.. guess who cook this dish??? 
Ahemmmmm......
sea cucumber, oysters, mushrooms... but no abalone.. 
hehehehe..
My SIL gave me some bah chang dumplings to go along with the dinner...
I think my mom should get a bigger table next time...
The food filled up most of the space already!
When it comes to food, these expressions shows all......
LOL....

  9. This is miraculous and wondrous to me, because I literally can hardly cook two things a once. If try to cook two, one will burn. And forget talking while cooking. How did the two of you do all this....some of it the day before?

  16. The food spread really made me drool. Your mum is a good cook. I miss my mum's cooking now. She was such a great chef when young but she has already retired from the kitchen as she is 82 years old now.
