• Christmas 2010

  wow wow wow…it’s been over a month since my last updates in NOV…….reason….? Don’t really know may be been spending too much time on FB….?

  Anyway was in Hong Kong over Christmas, however since I had a very unstable roster this DEC, I was not able to plan how to spend my xmas either in Vancouver or Hong Kong ahead of time. On the night while I was preparing for the flight, one of my friends read my status on MSN  then messaged me, and eventually I was invited to join a mini xmas eve dinner at his place in Tai Po

  It was a very nice home made dinner… a surprisingly good Fusion Paella  which a  famous Chinese style sausage from Vancouver Canada was used….and I didn’t bring it over, it’s my friend’s neighbour
  

  Grilled Pork(actually from the neck) Thai style and the Fried seadfood noodle also Thai Style
  

  Champagne or White Wine ………actually some sparkling grape juice……. 
   

  actually there should be a total of  6 dogs, but the last one always hide away from us maybe too shy…?   and the dessert….Creme Brulee
  
  on the Christmas morning………sending out greetings SMS though with quite a lot of replies,  only one was able to have lunch with me, and we ended up having the Christmas lunch at the  Brasserie Le Fauchon at SoHo

  The set lunch was at HKD145/pp which was..quite reasonable….for a 5 courses..

  The Baguette was served warm and crispy , while my friend was having the Parma Ham and melon with green salad, I had the Baked Escargots, follow with a Shrimp Bisque
  

  
   
  We both chose the New Zealand Steak…….and my friend asked me what’s the difference between the Australia/New Zealand  beef and the North American, I said the latter one are fed with ‘Corn’ in stead of grass I guess….

  

  Though either Creme Brulee or the Tiramisu were on the menu, I asked to change my dessert to a festive chocolate cake in stead……
  

  Then we went to the Cyberport  and took my  only pic with a 2010 Christmas decor inside the mall, and walked around  the million dollars residential area
  

  at last watched the movie Tron Legacy

  Well the movie was not 100% with 3-D effects….however I love how they make Jeff  Bridges look so young

   

  So this was my 2010 Christmas……..
