Wedding Feast

I went to a distance cousin's wedding tonight. It's just like every other Chinese wedding party I went, with the usual set of foods too. However, I did get to eat something I don't usually eat at a Chinese wedding.

A roast pig. I like the crispy skins they served on a bun with sweat sauce. Although putting a whole pig on the table rather kill the appetite for some.

A king crab. I usually see other type of crab, called Vancouver crab, steamed on sticky rice. It's first time I have a king crab on a wedding.

It was a wonderful wedding party, with plenty of food and wine to go around. I wish the newly wed happily ever after.

Legoland

We had no plan for this weekend. So after my daughters accusing me of being lazy all morning long, I said what the heck, let's go to Legoland. That made them happy.

Greeted by this upside-down Lego-man.

And a Lego-man, maybe Lego-woman, worker.

I like these mini-scenes they made with legos. This looks like a concert scene in Central Park.

Lego and Star Wars go very well together.

A pirate pig.

Nicely painted ramp, to the bathroom :-)

Birthday Dinner

It's my daughters' birthday. We eat at home as usual. Eating out cost too much. My wife is a good cook. Foods taste better at home actually.

We always start with this snail dish. It's almost like a tradition now. Every time we're celebrating something, we start with snails.

Fried chicken and spring rolls are mostly for kids. They love fried stuff.


Lobsters. We only get them once in a while. We prefer shrimps. Less work and more meat.

Pork ribs and taros, fried, then with garlic sauce poured on top.

Rice cakes. My favorite.

Yum.
