Not too late to post about how I spent my Christmas, afterall we have 12 days of Christmas :)
Ok, this was how I spent my simple Christmas. We went to Midvalley for some shopping, and then brunch. We decided to eat at Manhattan Fish Market, since it's located at ground floor and we didn't need to carry the stroller up and down the escalator or waiting for the lift.

Usually I would order their clam chowder but that day, I decided to try their beetroot soup. We had the fried stuffs platter, complete with fish, shrimp, scallops, squid and fries. We also ordered the mac & cheese and cheesy fries for the boys.
Some wefie with the boys.
Weekends? Same boring stuff. Made breakfast for the boys, cereals and raisins.
Also made some steamed condensed milk cakes.
Lunch? Same old thing - yee mein with ABC soup and hotdogs, heh!
Ok, bye!
good morning Princess Ribbon and all!!! wah, today's post about your Christmas ah?? okay, let me scroll up again to see your photos sin..
ReplyDeleteWei, sounds like me leh, hehe..
Deleteyeah 12 days of Christmas and I think many people are still in the festive mood until the New Year's Day or some even after the New Year's Day!! furthermore now that the new school-year opens a week later, meaning school holidays extends for another week, so everyone especially students and some parents of the students are continuing to enjoy their holidays!! this year's Christmas probably is 20 days?? muahahaha~~ xD
ReplyDeleteYeah, I saw the news too yesterday, schools will open on 12th, but I've called Kz's tadika la.. Not much effect la on Kz, coz he's just still in tadika.. The principle says the tadika will operate as usual on 5th wor..
Deletefuyoh!! you went to MV ah?? I also didn't dare to go or even go near MV lor.. sure packed with shoppers like sardines in a can, sure traffic jam like parking on the road and then sure difficult to find a parking lot inside one.. every year end also like that, everyone's going to MV ge woh.. this MV ah, really making lots of money.. but they simply spent the money on the too over-the-board Christmas deco this year jor, you know "jook" or not?? I don't like leh.. I only like one year that they have the huge toys theme..
ReplyDeleteWe made sure we went there early.. We left the house at 9.20am, reached there before 10am.. Walked around and hog the restaurant when it was almost 11am, then straightaway marched inside at 11am sharp lor.. After makan, go home, kautim!
Deleteso nice ah?? went to Manhattan Fish Market ah?? that one okay lah, usually not that many people hor?? and good lah, this round your outing was surely longer than 45 minutes la?? muahahaha.. let me see, you ordered the seafood platter with buttered rice.. actually I find the buttered rice nice, but then horr, cannot eat too much because very easily and quickly jelak geh, very "jai" because all grease.. but I think you sure no problem la, you can wallop everything like bandaraya la.. hihihihi!!!
ReplyDeleteI also love their garlic rice, especially the white garlic creamy sauce on top of the rice (it was from the fish I think, but those sauce dribbled over the rice), I usually ask for more garlic gravy.. Oh yes, you understand me well, I can wallop everything on the table la, Yummzzz..
Deletemorning cereals, cupcakes and instant noodles with ABC soup!! yalah as usual lah you always cook that at home ga la.. actually ytday I cooked instant noodles inside office too, muahaha, somemore add luncheon meat lor, then topped with the bonito flakes and furikake bought from Japan last time.. aiyoh, so luxury leh, at home I also never eaten like this before, hahaha!! :D
ReplyDeleteNah, this time different breakfast la, kan? You said I was very "convenient", just open the packet and assemble nicely on the plate ma.. So now I made cereals banjir in Nestum, with raisins lor, hehe.. Wah, that day cooked in pantry wor.. Sure the whole office got your instant noodle smell lor.. Eh, luncheon meat must fry first only "heong" wor..
DeleteHmm...I think my comment disappeared?
ReplyDeleteDissapeared?
DeleteI love beetroot too! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you had so much fun with the boys! I think it's awesome to spend Christmas with the family, that's what I'm doing now, instead of when younger, we'll go out clubbing, which is a very empty experience in hindsight but I guess our priorities change as we grow older.
Yeah, Christmas lasts 12 days! It's still Christmas after New Year!
I ate a lot of your last photo these few days too, except it's leftover turkey with pasta thrown into a pressure cooker. Haha!
Yep, I remember your turkey dinner.. Huge turkey, I could remember the leg, the wings, the drumstick, oh my !!! Oohh, so you eat that with pasta, heh.. If me, I would make sandwiches using those leftover turkey, nice!
DeleteLouiz, your Christmas was not bad lah. At least you went for an outing at Mid-Valley and had a nice brunch at Manhattan Fish Market. So how's the Beetroot Soup? It looks so pinky. Sedap? That goreng-goreng platter looks good. I like deep fried stuff and love dipping with chilli sauce or mayo or sour cream. So did the boys finish their food? Your condensed milk cake looks cute. Only 3 kah? One for you and one each for the boys?
ReplyDeleteThe beetroot soup taste like mushroom soup, slightly watery.. Oh yes, I love goreng-goreng stuff too, and dip them in sour cream, garlic mayo and honey mustard sauce, yummmzzz... Nope, as usual, Kz only finished the chocolate milkshake, haha.. Yep, only 3 cupcakes, recipe only uses 1 egg, so cannot make too much also.. Yep, one each for us..
Deletewhat a wonderful Christmas. Simple and nice
ReplyDeleteSimple nia.. No fancy outing, no turkey, no log cake, no buffet dinners..
DeleteNo family photo? hehe...
ReplyDeleteNo wor, too messy and rush to take one decent photo during lunch, pity hor..
Deleteeh..how come keep showing baby's food? Show more of your food la...
ReplyDeleteNot much to show, no go out much for makan and jalan like you ma..
Deleteyummy looking cupcakes..mind sharing the ingredients? would love to try it.
ReplyDeleteRecipe is simple and only uses 1 egg: 3tbsp flour, baking powder, 1egg, 2tbsp condensed milk, 1tbsp sugar, 2tbsp cooking oil and water/milk (agak agak) until it reaches the perfect consistency..
DeleteOk ma, got go eat out at Manhattan. Sort of western food lah..
ReplyDeleteI read somewhere that it is 12 days of Christmas and us modern day people are being shortchanged 11 days of it. So you knew this too huh :D
Purposely go Manhattan lor, since it's downstairs, no need go up and down with the stroller lor..
DeleteHaha. A very cute post.
ReplyDeleteNice outing with boys. I like that fried platters.
I dont mind your noodle. My comfort food.
I love fried food too, with those dippings!
DeleteYour family had a Marvellous Christmas celebrations. Mine was so boring that I could not even recall what I did. We celebrated my father's birthday at home on Christmas Eve while my mother lay on the bed in the next room. Life is just a journey for everyone and you are always smart in cooking and baking to make the boys happy! Happy New Year to your family.
ReplyDeleteI remember what you said. Life is a journey. An illusion. The earth is a stage. People are actors. Be nice, live one day at a time, better 2015 for everyone and yeah same to you, happy new year !
DeleteI love MFM and I would always order the seafood platter too. The garlic rice in it is really nice.
ReplyDeleteSame here, give me 5! Love that garlicky rice+garlicky cream sauce to go with the fish..
