Selamat Hari Merdeka
I wish all the Malaysians Selamat Hari Merdeka and let us be reminded of how grateful we are to this country we call home - everything from Malaysia’s melting pot of cultures, traditions galore, multi-ethnicity, unique diverse heritage, language, places, and food have become an integral part of our society.

My Chinese New Year Celebration [Day 2 and Day 3]
As

Celebration,
Chinese New Year,

Snake
This post continue from the previous blog post of My Chinese New Year Celebration [Eve and Day 1].
After all the feasting on the eve of the Chinese New Year and the first day of the Chinese New Year, we don't really stop there. I think part of the Chinese New Year is about food and drink, as we stock up our house with soft drinks, mandarin oranges, cookies and other food.
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, we just re-heat the leftover food for our lunch and then as usual, I will watch the television. Anyway, most of the day time was spent at home because my aunt (my dad's sister) and our cousins came over, so we basically chat throughout the afternoon until about dinner time when they will go to my uncle's house for dinner.
We had our dinner at Nando's Chicken, when at first we plan to dine at Dragon-I, but the Dragon-I was fully booked until after 8.30p.m, which is way after our dinner time. And so finally, we don't really have much choice in Aeon Station 18 except Nando's.
As usual, after dinner, we will take a walk around the shopping mall, with my parents doing some groceries while we were supposed to go to Faceshop to buy something, but unfortunately most of the shops are still closed, so we kind of like window shopping before we have our coffee session at the Starbucks.
Next day, we woke up early morning and get ready to go to Sam Poh Tong, as it is my grandma's "last seven". So, we met my mum's siblings' family at Sam Poh Tong and have some prayers had our breakfast at the nearest Old Town Kopitiam, as the coffee shop that we planned to have our breakfast was packed.
And finally, we had our dinner at my uncle's place and he himself will be the cook for the day - he has always been the cook most of the time during the festive seasons at my grandmother's house. We had quite a good and simple meal and time together before it's time to send my younger sister to the bus station as she will be heading back to Singapore.

My Chinese New Year Celebration [Eve and Day 1]
As

Celebration,
Chinese New Year,
Family,
Snake
It is a different kind of Chinese New Year celebration for me and my family this time, we are not supposed to have the celebration, but in order to respect our grandparents, we do it a little bit low profile. This is in fact the first time we celebrate the Chinese New Year without our grandparents, so we kinda spend most of the time at my house, with my super mum as the cook for our meals most of the time.
On the Chinese New Year eve, it is kinda a bit rush for us, as my sister from Singapore called us early in the morning informing us that she bought the wrong flight ticket and she will wait in the Changi Airport to see if there is flight ticket back to Ipoh available, while at the same time buying the bus ticket. Thank God that someone left Singapore to Ipoh few days earlier, so she has got her flight ticket finally and was able to join the family for dinner.
We have our dinner at the house and we are served we some of the best meal we have ever had, with my mum as the cook. We even have home made roasted pork as one of the dishes, and like most Chinese, prawn is definitely part of the menu. Our cousin also join us for the dinner and we really have great deal of quality time feasting and chatting with each other.
To usher in the year of Snake, we have simple some snacks and tea as well as red wine while watching some Chinese New Year movies on our big TV at the living hall. This is something that we always do every year to usher in the lunar year.
Next day, we had lunch at the house together with my mum's sister's family and chat a while before they left to go shopping at the Kinta City while we watch movie at home, while getting ready to have our dinner at the Fairway Restaurant inside the Perak Royal Golf Club. The dinner is not exceptionally great, but was good and it was also another great time spend together.
That wraps off what I did in the Chinese New Year eve and on Day one. Will blog more about this year's Chinese New Year's celebration in my upcoming posts.

Grandma's Birthday
My grandma celebrated her 79th birthday (80th in Chinese Calendar) today, and this year, we have our dinner celebration at the Prosperous Restaurant which is just beside the Heritage Hotel. We have the traditional Chinese style of eight course meals, and the usual stuff from chickens, prawns and veges.
And here.....the food

Happy Mother's Day
Today is Mother's Day and we celebrated Mother's Day with our mum and granny in the Mun Cheong Restaurant. It is quite unusual for us to celebrate special occasion in a Chinese cuisine restaurant as usually we will opt to celebrate occasion like this in restaurants or cafes that serve western food, but since granny is staying with us until her house renovation is completed, we have it in the Chinese cuisine restaurant.
Honestly if you ask me, I prefer to have it elsewhere but surprisingly the food turns out to be quite nice. We have like six dishes. Here goes the first dish that was served.

| This soup....don't know the name, but it turns out that I like it very much. |
 |
| Salad prawn - too sweet |
 |
| Chicken |
 |
| Fish - one of the best dishes today, as we can finish this fish up. |
Overall, the food is OK and again, what we would like to emphasize more is on the celebration and the quality that each and everyone of us have.
Finally, I will like to wish all the my mother once more and all the mothers in the world a Happy Mother's Day.

Happy Chinese New Year
Well, it is now less than 3 hours before we welcome in the year of the Water Dragon which is expected to bring the Chinese a great year. It is another celebration which focused on gathering of the family members and friends.
Yesterday I also went to meet with a friend, he's also my sister's friend and the three of us went to Luen Fong Restaurant in Tanjong Tualang. The place is famous for its fresh prawn as well as some other dishes. Then, my family and I also went visiting my grandparents before doing last minute shopping at Ipoh Parade as well have a cup of Starbucks before going home.
This morning, went to church service as usual, before going to my grandma's place for reunion dinner. Now uploading photos to Facebook while watching I Love Hong Kong.
Wished everyone a prosperous and Happy Chinese New Year and Gong Xi Fa Cai!!!
