My Birthday

Last Saturday was my Birthday. We went to Winter Warmers Coffee House for hi-tea with my sister and her kids; Jun Yin & Jer-Rick.

A small accident happened there. We ordered 2 sets of Hi-Teas which came with mixed fruits cocktails, sandwiches, cookies, cheese cakes, scones & frutis. If you look at the photo, you will noticed that they served cocktails with the cocktail glasses. The accident happened was Jer-Rick (my sister younger son) after finished the drink, he still biting the glass. As the result he was accidently broke the glass with a hard bite.

At first, my sister still doesn't know the glass has broken, until he told her: "Mommy, the glass has broken", then only my sister realised that his month still biting the broken glass. So I and my sister very panic and didn't know what to do, just asked him to spit out the broken glasses and ask him don't swallow anything. We gave him some water to gargle and spit out, repeatly few times and to make sure no more glasses in his month.

Luckily he didn't get hurt and the glasses didn't scratch his month. The moral of the story is don't let your kids drinking using glasses, and don't allow your kids to bite the cup while drinking, it is very dangerous.


At night, we had dinner at The Zun Kitchenette (尊厨), Shaw Parade. We ordered the healthy set dinner. All dishes are less oily and no msg added, very healthy.

The set menu included 10 small bowl of superior herbal soups (you can choose 10 different types of soup if you want), steamed pomfret fish with 'dang gui', crispy chicken with red wine sauce, stir fried shrimps with dried scallops & egg white, braised beancurd & luffa melon with 'gei zi', steamed meat paste with 'huai shan', stir fried kai lan & olive veg. with 'yu zhu' and two types of desserts. Before the dinner start, they served us a cup of iced apple vinegar. Pls refer to the following photo.
