Breakfast & Home Cooked Dinner Gathering

Early morning we took our friend's bro.N out for dim sun breakfast at Restoran Hong Kong Dim Sum BFB. Sis.S wanted to sleep late. Initially there were only 3 of us but later joined by 2 more friends.
Driving to the dim sum restaurant.

What to you think of this fencing?
Tasty crispy yam (taro) puffs (woo kok in Cantonese). Today's breakfast I only took photos of a few items, the rest I totally forgot! Too busy enjoying the fellowship!

Minced pork with prawn dumplings dipped in ginger strips with black vinegar.

My favourite - deep fried century egg rolls. Lol! that's all the photos for the dim sum breakfast. I remembered we ordered BBQ pork pau, and etc. but no photos to show.

After breakfast we packed some dim sum for sis.S and sent bro.N home because he and his sister has some matters to look into. The rest of us went our separate ways to do our own thing. Some were already preparing the food for the night's dinner gathering. Nothing grand, just a small gathering with some home cooked food.

Yummy food all cooked by a very charming sister - thanking her for all the hard work in preparing and cooking these for us. From the left to right - deep fried "lam yee" chicken, fried vermicelli and some stuffed "liew".

Home cooked braised chicken feet, also by the sweet, lovely sister.

I didn't contribute any home cooked food, but hubby bought home made popular Jelapang stuffed tofu, soaked in hot soup. All 20 pieces finished! My friends were planning to go for another round of tofu and rojak in Jelapang the next day!

Cut watermelon with skin as dessert.

A little red wine, beer and plain water to go with the food. A night of coming together to enjoy each other's company, filled with jokes, laughter and fun. I was not in the picture because I was the photographer. How to feel old when in the company of such jovial friends!
Linking to Good Fences.

Oh, praise the Lord! for He has listened to my pleadings!
He is my strength, my shield from every danger.
I trusted in Him, and He helped me.
Joy rises in my heart until I burst out in songs of praise to Him.
The Lord protects His people and gives victory to His anointed king.
(Psalm 28:6-8, The Living Bible-TLB)

  17. That fence looks pretty neat. I'm guessing they plant stuff in it because it looked like there were some type of plants at the top of the fence. I can't imagine eating Dim Sum for breakfast, very different from what I eat for breakfast. The food looked pretty good (except for the chicken feet and the watermelon - I'm allergic to watermelon).

  18. What a feast! And so many happy faces! Are you in there, or taking the picture? The fence I don't like. It is more like a barrier and not too pretty.
