A Family Day

It is rare to have a day without tuition and today is the day.  It is also rare to have all 3 boys together.  The two older boys usually have some activities like meeting up with friends or giving tuition.  Today, all 3 boys have both lunch and dinner together.

We had Japanese lunch in Anchorage at the sushi resturant.  We did not have discount card.  So have to contact my wife's brother-in-law to get free green tea ice-cream.  We had california maki, prawn maki with avocado and soft-shell crab maki.  Our main meal is their weekend set and Christmas set.  After lunch, we walk around the tiny mall.  There was a deal for facial.  So we sent B2 for a two hours facial.  The deal was a farce.  They keep advertising it is $29.  In the end, it cost $45 for B2's session.  Anyway, B2 has plenty of scars from bursting his own pimples and it is not good.  He has itchy fingers and cannot stop squeezing and bursting the pimples.

We moved on to Takashimaya to past time and check out cast iron pots.  We are interested in getting an oval pot to try out cooking stews.  Right now we are deciding between 29 cm or 31 cm.  The key issue with cast iron pots is the weight.  They are heavy!!

We spent so much time window shopping that it was dinner time and I was hungry.  I check out all the resturants in Lucky Plaza.  Finally, we settled on Indonesian food on third floor where there is a Strait Times article published in 2006 on the resturant.  We had the Bakar Gurame Fish, 2 chicken satay, beef soup and gado gado.  The food is excellent and total price is $70 for 5 with two avocado drink and a passion fruit soda. 

After dinner, we continue with more window shopping in Times, Toys R Us and Metro.  We feel like we were on holiday with all our boys.  I have backache from walking all day.  I used the Philips Infrared heater on my back and it helps relief the aches.
