Short getaway to JB on Sunday with the Zhangs
(a family with very close ties to mine, since my grandma's generation)
Purpose for this trip is to celebrate the beginning of a new phase in university
for eldest daughters of both families
 |
me & keer - i knew her since she was a baby (she's 1 year younger)
one of the most hardworking girl I know, studied really hard
and graduated from Hwa Chong with straight As for A levels
She's currently going to continue pursuing her dream, doing Architecture at SUTD

Harbour Cafe was having a promotion in the month of June
MYR45++ per pax (roughly SGD 20) for its lunch buffet
as it's Traders Hotel's first month of operations
Wide variety of yummy cold salads
Portobello Mushrooms, Grilled Peppers, Pumpkin, Feta Cheese, Chicken Ceasar etc.
The Thai Beehoon Salad was extremely well-received at the table
 |
| Fresh cold seafood - plump mussels & sweet meaty flower crabs |
There was also a Japanese section at the side, serving white tuna as sashimi and various sushi
although I really hoped there was salmon :(
Maybe because it was lunch so.... but still I enjoyed the seafood & white tuna ^^
I must say that the indian food section is the best
Awesome savoury curries, naans and the TANDOORI CHICKEN IS YUMZ
really tender and sweet
Roasted Chicken
Dim Sum Section
Paus, har gaos, siew mais etc.
there's also a laksa/yong tau foo & asian corner right next to it
Mad love for this chocolate fondue machine
just look at the absolutely gorgeous flowing streams of white and dark chocolate
the dessert corner offered a wide selection of cakes, kuehs, ice cream
The staff at the restaurant were really friendly too
did not chase us off when the buffet ended at 2.30pm
& thus we continued to stay in our private room, chatting till 4
Much thanks to the parents from both families for giving us such a grand celebratory meal
and the big fat ang bao (奖学金）too :D
It was an enjoyable afternoon filled with laughter, dumb jokes, serious talks
spent with the family & Zhangs (we're really like 1 big family, just not related by blood)
How was your June?
July, be kind.
