Ironman 2

Thursday 29, April 2010

Location : at home

Conversation between my 6 yr old Zarif and myself : Mama, can you and Papa take the day off tomorrow (Friday 30, April 2010). Right after I finish school, can we go to the cinemas. I saw on tv they said that Ironman 2 will be showing in cinemas on 30 April. Tomorrow IS 30 April!!!

OMG! Can you believe that??? He wants me to take the day off just to catch Ironman 2 on the very day that it's out!!! Well, so happens that I was on leave on Friday. However, we didn't plan to go on Friday at all. I actually already bought tickets on Thursday afternoon for Saturday afternoon. When I told Zarif this, he was worried that by then, Ironman 2 screening would be over. However, that one day and a half wait was absolute torment for him. He kept asking, when are we going to the cinemas??? He!he! Anyway, 4:45 p.m finally arrived.

So Marvel comics lovers, Ironman lovers, Tony Stark's fans, Audi fans or hubby may even add Scarlett Johansson's fans (hmmm!)... whichever category that you fall into well wait no longer. Not to be missed! Zarif sure loved it!!

Oh by the way, let me just add, if you are a handbag lover please pay close attention to Gwyneth Paltrow's handbag towards the 2nd half of the show. Been googling it all weekend to no avail. It's a definite Ferragamo in solid black. It's just divine... my gasps were even louder when I saw this compared to when the R8 appeared in the movie! Tell me what you think... yeah ok, about the movie too if you must.

Pak Loh Chiu Chow Experience

Last Thursday, we had the pleasure of dining at the "golden sister" of the renowned Pak Loh restaurant in Hong Kong. Yes, it's the name of a restaurant here at Starhill, KL. Click on the picture on the left for more information.

We were taken to this restaurant for a lunch treat (which made the experience even more divine) by our boss, perhaps a pre-Labour Day treat. We had Dim Sum which continued what felt like endlessly. Our boss enjoys her food, which makes eating with her "fulfilling"... get my drift?

Pak Loh Chiu Chow

(like I know, for sure!)

Cosy atmosphere amidst furniture specially brought in from China... so it says on the site.

Closer look at the table settings.

Part of the Dim Sum dishes... all were simply divine.

There were more dishes but we were too busy eating we forgot to take pictures of everything.

I want them all... my colleague Azlan acting for the camera to torment another

colleague who is away at our head office.

The Szechuan Hot and Sour Soup is just out of this world,

(good thing since it was  RM15 per serving).

Fried Rice

My little tiny plate... he!he! the raddish cake was just yumm!

The lovely transparent tea pot -Bodum style eh? I like.

Soaked tea leaves.

The dessert - lotus something... I can't remember. The lotus filling and the pastry sheets was just unbelievably good that we ordered another one and almost forgave them for not having durian pancakes that day. Almost!

Lovely unplanned lunch. Thanks boss. I can get use to this... :-D
