Chinese X'mas for me?

Just came back from Mid Valley after a movie session with Samantha, Jian Ming & Zven. We watched Sherlock Holmes!!! It was just awesome, a very smart movie indeed. Suspense & curiosity in the right amount. The story was pretty logical and not at all absurd as many mystery/ crime solving movies may be. EXCELLENT! The story was set in London. Most scenes revolved around the Picadilly Circus & the Thames River. I know the London landmarks well yo!

Christmas is a time to be spent with one's family =) and I have been spending mine with my family every year. I'm no Christian, alright (my mum is, hence I wear a cross that was given to me by her). I just have to spend the day with my family, with my Daddy to be exact! It's his birthday and my parents' anniversary.

My dad doesn't fancy Western meals, he prefers Chinese cuisine. He would just put a smile on his face and nod his head to agree with me if I wish to have Western instead. My dad's just oh so sweet =) So anyways, since it's his brithday, we picked a Chinese restaurant of our choice, heheheh!! Well, at least it's chinese =p

We went to Duck King in Jaya 1, at Jalan Universiti, PJ on Christmas Eve.

Me doing a "Marcus"

The appetizers. Deep fried seasoned duck meat and some tofu.

Seasoned duck tongue. I don't know how it tasted like since I didn't dare to eat the intrinsic muscles of the duck (superior & inferior longitudinal, verticalis, transversus).

Kai-Lan with the leaves deep fried and the trunks stir-fried =)

Some other vege

Soya sauce & garlic fried pork

The famous roast duck. Oh, so much better than the Four Seasons wannabe at Caps Square!

Smoked duck. Tasted even better than the signature roast duck! 9/10!

Clams with bean paste.

Claypot fish head.

Steamed garoupa. I never liked fish. Ewwww...

Their special rice, mixed with a little pork lard & soya sauce, served with sunny side up!

The free coconut-water jelly. (So refreshing and light! Not the yucky coconut milk kind, they used the young coconut water instead. Yumm!!)

My favourite: Lemongrass jelly!!!

Mango & pamelo sago dessert.

Happy Anniversary Daddy & Mummy!!!

-----------------------------------------

On Christmas Day itself, my brother and I went out and bought a few pieces of cake from The Daily Grind and Delicious. Well, my dad is not the dessert kind of person, so, it's always been hard to get him a cake.

Red Velvet. Pineapple, banana, peanut & cream cheese cake. Pavlova in the middle.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DADDY!!! love you long long =)

Peace out!
