CNY EVE - The REUNION DINNER


.

Was waiting for our dinner at a Chinatown restaurant.

My parents prefer a clean dinner than a massive clean up after home made dinner...

.

My destroyer looks like he is crying right! haha But he is actually saying YEAH! :p

.

Hanging around and having fun with my love ones...

.

Finally the wait is over!

.

My first taste on my fave CNY food - The Yusheng!!

I can eat this everyday for the whole of CNY (15 days yes!)

.

Paid our $100 desposit to lock the dinner like a month back.


.

Actually me and boy are so hungry we shared some pre dinner Macdonald's snacks when we reached there and know that we have to wait abit.



HUAT AH!

.

The dinner was not bad but i have this weird feeling that last year seemed better.

We were eating at this place last year too.

.

Some foods have been pre distributed thus i didnt get to take pic :(

But after the dinner we were already talking and planning that we could have it

at Ah Yat seafood rstn at Shaw Towers next round.

This year we did a mini dessert party from our usual fruit platters.

.

I dun fancy chocolate at all but well I also find this pretty yummy.
.

Good choice! We shall think of different dishes nxt year!

So seldom to see keppel bay or prive in broad day light oh really warm...



taken under shelter by zooming

taken when willingly stuck on the chair, so taken by zooming..

Mistake : things behind me were clearer than me!

.

Anyway very very windy day...

focus incorrect thus nt clear

focus incorrect thus not clear - aperture is not right

same problem

same problem

got better cos aiming was done further

incorrect aperture n focus :(




same problem...





obviously taken on normal dig cam..

Oh i looked like siao cha bo with the strong wind..


You fast or am I faster?


Some friends have already spotted many mistakes already haha

I got all ISO, apertures and shutter all mess up hahaa..

.

Put aside photo quality, Keppel Bay really looks very cool and comfortable in the day too with so much view so clear...

.

It is so cosy to coffee here in the day.

You just feel like you are out of the sunny island like in laid back in Australia or NZ.

.

Pop by if you are around...when do we come across many yacht docking place within town area :)

.

OK improve on dslr skill!!
