Yay, it's weekend again. This means that I do not no need to work on my research for the next 2 days :D We attended a friend's wedding dinner on that night. Anyway, this is going to be a relatively short post since I don't have the mood for blogging, probably too much stress from work, and that altered my mood :O lol.

Anyway, here is the story.


Caption: arrived at the restaurant

At first, we thought we will be late. My dad's friend informed us by asking us to reach to the restaurant at 8:00 PM sharp and I think we reached there at 8:15 PM, lol. Damn, does this mean that we have missed the first dish? :( lol


Caption: dad's friend and my dad

When we reached to the restaurant, we saw him standing at the front of the entrance, giving us a very thankful smile. I think he is really happy to see us attending his wedding dinner :)

Surprisingly, the environment of the restaurant has changed significantly when compared to the first time visiting the restaurant for dinner. They include decorations everywhere to make it looks more like a wedding hall, but to me, it is still a restaurant afterall, lol.


Caption: the ladies taking picture with the bride

The first thing that we do when reaches the first floor of the restaurant is to sneak into the so called 'private room' for the bride. As usual, I am the camera-man whilst the ladies will stand beside the bride for picture shooting. The bride may look ill to you, but to the fact that she just gave birth to a baby boy in less than 3 weeks! So that is the main reason for looking so pale.

Enoch is so cute! Poor Enoch for surrounded by at least 8 people in that room on that night. Let see, Enoch don't look alike both his mom and dad, he looks very different. Frankly speaking, he looks much cuter than his dad :O Lol.

Glad we are not the last one to attend the wedding. There were at least 5 tables of people (approximately 50 people) not arrived yet. While waiting for other people, I start taking pictures everywhere. The number of people is not alot really, but I can predict those who have attended the dinner are the groom's best friends.


Caption: parent's friends

It has been a while since parents have been so happy chatting with their old friends. I am really glad their friends have really entertain both my parents well on that night.


Caption: the first dish

Okie, this is extremely important :O that is, the food lol. The first dish is the 'donno-what' four season dish. It consist of 4 different types of foods in a plate. Tastes really good. This is also the reason for not able to capture the foods in the dish entirely since I am busy eating, lol. Liz should be blamed for not reminding me, lol, just kidding.


Caption: the second dish


Caption: shark-fin soup

Yummy! The second dish is the shark-fin soup! It tastes really good.


Caption: the third dish

The third dish is the steamed fish. I think it don't look like a fish at all. The taste of this dish is just acceptable, which means they could have improved their method of steaming a fish. Plus, they splitted the fish into 2, making it looks bigger. Afterall, the portion of the fish is still little for 10 people, lol.


Caption: the groom singing

Out from no where, I heard some weird voice. Its from the groom. He was singing! 'We' (most of us who attended the wedding dinner on that night) could reluctantly accept his singing style on that night, where he received ample of critisizes from his friends lol. Sorry mate, looks like singing is not suitable for you, lol.


Caption: the forth dish

The taste of the prawn dish is special. The combination of sweet and sour juices, with garlic, ginger and onion, and maiyonnaise tastes really well, especially for people who really enjoy eating garlic, ginger and onion like me :)


Caption: the fifth dish

I would like to critisize a little on this chicken dish, because we did not eat the chicken entirely due to the level of rawness. Basically, the entire chicken is raw (raw is a level where the red blood around the chicken is still visible), lol. Yucks!


Caption: the sixth dish

This is basically a vegetarian dish. One of the aunty sitting on the same table as me is a vegetarian. So we just taste a little on this dish, and the remaining portion goes to her.


Caption: anchovies fried rice

I don't feel the fried rice is special, especially tasting some over-frying taste. Besides salty, it is just a simple fried rice. I am not being choosy, but the taste of this dish is really simple. I think the taste could have been improved by adding more garlic. Anyway, I won't comment much since I'm not an expert in cooking :)


Caption: the pouring champagne session

Before the last dish, the groom and bride were invited to the stage for the 'pouring champagne session'. Then, his and her family members were asked to join them at the stage. This is also the moment when everyone will yell 'Yum Sing', a very exciting session in all wedding dinners.


Caption: the dessert

Before the wedding dinner ends, we were served with red bean soup and some pancake as dessert. Too sweet! Diabetes! I hope you understand what I mean by that term, lol. Overall, I would only rate the food as moderate (5/10). The next few post will be my uncle's wedding dinner that I have recently attended.
