HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! YEAY!

Ok, it's been 2 days already, but it's still my birthday week... Happy Birthday to me... A great birthday this year (though lacking in presents, sheesh! hehehehe)... My loved ones beside me, heath, living in a beautiful n peaceful country, breathing fresh air (minus some of the pollution that I also contribute to), a career, lots of birthday wishes, what more could I ask for? Ok, a birthday cake would be nice, but I can let that one go, hehehehehehe....

This is what I got from Mr Buffel..... (every d'Guild member gets one, but who's asking right?)

The Man took us to this place @ solaris mont kiara for my Birthday Dinner...

Inside dining area.... Ok, so this is not exactly the dining area, more of the staircase that led to the upstairs dining area.... but this is inside.... that counts, right?

Outside dining area with the drink station...

The Golden Triangle...

As if we were there...

Nice and cozy huh? a bit of privacy for the family.... Great for a romantic dinner as well...

The Man's Watermelon Juice

Birthday Girl and her sister's Umbra Juice (formally known as the buah kedondong) with asam boi.

I give this drink 2 thumbs up (and that's because I ordered this drink twice, just couldn't get enough of it)....

The Boy's Chocolate Drink...

eeeiiihhhhh passable I would say.... Can't compete with the umbra juice....

We started off our dinner with this appetizer...

Mieng Kham

Was supposed to order this one again after dinner. Yes, I know it's an appetizer... Unfortunately, the inevitable happened... My kids, if not one of them, it's the both of them simultaneously, just have to poop when we're about to sit down to eat @ a new place / a place they've never been to before... And my birthday was no exception. Fortunately, Mysha was sitting beside The Man, and I didn't know what happened until I finished my dessert. The Man was gracious enough not to tell me, so I could enjoy my birthday dinner, Thank U Sayang! He was also nice enough to wash her up after we left the restaurant. Unfortunate for Mysha, mommy did not bring a spare anything for her, so we only had her daddy's handkerchief to cover her up. Good thing we went there straight after work, so her day bag was in the car and there was an extra diaper in there. So, we wrapped her up like a nice lil' present in the car (Even though the drive home is just a short distance, I'm not going to take the risk of her peeing in the car).

Let's proceed with the rest of the menu, shall we?

Saigon Fried Chicken Wings

We just simply loved this dish... Was supposed to order this one a second round, but the above mentioned happened.... Soooo.....

Tempura Squid

Stir fried kale in oyster sauce

Thai Curry Powdered Prawns....

Ridzuan loved this dish... Heck, he loves all things Shrimp....

Spicy Lime Leaves Soft Shell Crabs....

You betcha it was spicy, but it was damn good!

I think this dish is the Choo Chee Fish.

Not sure if Choo Chee is the name of the dish or the way it's cooked. Basically the fish was deep fried and than served with that thick gravy of spices and coconut milk.... This dish was recommended by our waitress that's why I don't remember the name... Just remember the taste....

And for dessert....

Tham Thim Krop.....

It's basically Water Chestnuts covered with tapioca flour (colored red) giving it that pomegranate appearance, slices of jackfruit, served in coconut milk....

Coconut Jelly...

Made with pure coconut water, not one of those coconut jelly come some people make with a bit of coconut water and syrup.... this one u really taste the coconut.... Marvelous!

THANK YOU MY DARLING HUSBAND, for the lovely (and full) birthday dinner... for loving me enough to marry me, for wanting to spend the rest of your life with me and for letting me be the mother to your children. And also, for NOT FORGETTING my birthday... (let's hope The Man never does in the future, shall we?)
