21st birthday celebration - brunch

I was in the midst of clearing my pictures and I found a tons of pictures taken during my 21 birthday last year.  21st birthdays are usually very important as they say that is the year when we get our keys and we should be on our own already. I wrote a birthday post HERE.

Instead of throwing a huge ass party I went to have some quality times with my lovelies since I dont get to see them very often, took this as a chance to catch up either :)

Settled down at Pietro Ristorante Italiano.

Our pretty dining table.

brunch menu and drinks menu.

bread // minestrone soup  

both Shermaine and Wan Yee's eggs benedict.

Tiff's sautéed mushroom.

our pretty table // my personal heart shaped grilled chicken.

there's always room for desserts :)

Wan Yee, yours truly, Shermaine and Tiffany.

thanks for the wonderful birthday lunch. 

It was a short but sweet yet casual gathering.  We had a great time catching up with each other's lives sometimes you just have to admit that you're getting older each day, okay maybe not old but you're just not young anymore. I'm glad that I've these girls with me even though we dont talk to each other often.  Love you girls :)  Sometimes you dont need to surround yourself w too many friends, just a few that stay true to you its more than enough.

Luk Yu Tea House

I dont really have much time for blog but I already scheduled a few posts to update hehehe. So this is one of it about the tea house I went few days back.  Usually when it comes to High Tea Im sure what comes into our mind is the english tea w scones and macarons but have you tried chinese style high tea? If you haven't, do try out this place at Starhill, KL. 

Luk Yu Tea House 

This was taken from the place I was sitted.

The open air kitchen where you can observe everything they prepare for us.

Cute cutleries :) 

We were told to have a eight course meal so overall it was a satisfied meal!  I think this is more like a dinner/lunch/breakfast instead of high tea because the meal is actually kinda heavy :P

#1 siewmai and prawn dumpling

#2 fried chicken pie w sesame and fried yam cake

#3 fried rice!! FRIED RICE!! can you believe that? 
why the respond because we didnt expect to have rice during tea hours. 

#4 salted prawn 
THIS IS MY FAVORITE DISH!!!

#5 lastly the mango sago dessert :)

Loving the details :)

Sabah (Mount Kinabalu)

I'm so happy blogging right now because previously I thought no one is reading this anymore but looking at the stats really motivates me to blog more hehe I still love this blog because this is definitely my online diary :) Reading back my 2010 blogpost make me realized how much I've changed and grow hahaha but anyhow I'm gonna keep this updated as often as I can (: 

So I went to Sabah few weeks ago for a company training and I honestly dont remember when was the last time I flew to Sabah. Probably 1-2 years back? We took an early flight that morning and the first thing we do is checking in the hotel the moment we arrived.

This was taken on the plane.
Bare with our naked-sleepy-faces lol

We arrived at KK around 9AM in the morning then took a van and up we go to Mount Kinabalu!  The journey was so scary its worst than Genting's road but we were all sleeping like a dead pig so no one bothers how the driver was driving.  I still remember the moment we arrived the hill the first thing that caught our attention was the surroundings.  It was so cooling and refreshing there's greens everywhere! The hotel we stayed dont even have air cond, its all "natural air condition" :)

lunch time w the team // name tag :)

first time travelling w this silly girl. it was her first time taking the air plane too! 

the session was a bomb! 
first time having training on Mount Kinabalu.

It was a short 2 days 1 night trip.  
Went back to KK by van again but this time we were all wide awake so I managed to snap a few shots...



the weather wasnt really good and it was the sunset already. 
didnt manage to capture the sunset but I saw it w my bare eyes, it was beyond beautiful :)

Thats all bout the Sabah short trip.  Had a great time with my mates, cant wait for the next one already.

Next post will be about a high tea session, see ya! :)
