Yesterday, my mum, our beautiful friend Tanya, and I went out for a thai lunch to celebrate my mummy's birthday! It was awesome and very delicious! It was one of those restaurants that I wouldn't just walk into off the street- it wasn't very nicely decorated or intriguing looking from the outside. The inside was nicer, and the thai food was absolutely scrumptious! We started with a coconut hot soup which was divine, then we shared 3 dishes, one of the classic pad thai, a fried rice dish and a vegetable stir-fry. Then to top off the meal, we all shared a mango and sticky rice! Man, it was delicious!! After spending such a wonderful day with Tanya, we decided to do it again!!
So today, Tanya joined the family at a FANTASTIC restaurant called Kinjo Sushi and Grill!
It is absolutely the BEST Japanese restaurant I have ever ever been into! Not just because of the food, but because of the people that work there and because of the atmosphere!! Everyone is happy to see you and they go out of your way to make your day, it's wonderful! So we came to this restaurant because of mum's birthday, and during lunch, the host came around the make sure we were having a good time, and if we were here just as a family dinner or because of a birthday, which we told him it was mum's birthday so he said he'd go prepare...So after my ordering (I think I got a little excited because I ordered alot...but we did amazingly well and finished pretty much everything except 2 pieces of sushi and one yam tempura!), Below is a photo of the Kiss Dragon Rolls (Left is Male dragon with eel, and right is female dragon with salmon! They were delish!!)
and after we finished eating, the host, and 5 other people followed him with a drum and a tamborine and sung a wonderful Happy Birthday to my mum, and then on behalf of dad sung You are my sunshine, and gave mum a big box of pocky with a lit candle stuck in the corner, so how wonderful was that? It was amazing!! I absolutely love that restuarant, and if ever I go out to eat, that one is always first on my list of places to go to! They are always so kind, and I've never had a bad experience there. Their food is divine and beautiful and you can watch the chefs cook it, if you are seated in the right area, and the people that work there are always smiling and always happy to help. It's absolutely wonderful!
Okay, so after that wonderful birthday surprise, we got more food... coconut ice cream (which had mango sorbet in the center)
and Japanese green tea ice cream (which is my favourite!)
..which was delicious of course! I think they were surprised as to how much food we ate :P but it was all delicious and we savoured every flavour of it!
After the restuarant, we came home, had tea, and Tanya joined us for the whole day! Which was wonderful! We had the family come over to eat birthday cake (yes, more food!) (lemon almond cake! yummyy!!!) with dried persimmons on top and a small scoop of lemon sorbet! It was absolutely tickling the taste buds for sure! After the family left, we watched Bridget Jones Diary which is always a laugh and decided that it was too much work to paint toenails. What a fantastic day!! Definitely, it was a wonderful birthday celebration!
So this past week, hasn't been too exciting. I've just been out shopping and recruiting what necessities I need for my upcoming trip. I bought a tiny sleeping bag and a kobo reader....um, that's about it!
Overall, it was a beautiful fantastic day!! This last photo is of us eating a strawberry and chocolate pocky together, I think it's the best way to eat them!
