After all these years...

old friends, originally uploaded by mincaye.

Friday night, I had dinner (and supper) with some old friends from Standard Six (and their siblings/cousins). They were:

Top, L-R: Edmund and Qiao Ying

Middle, L-R: Denny, Edmund's sister, Lenny (Denny's brother), Brian (or is it Bryan?--Denny and Edmund's cousin)

Bottom, L-R: Jin Yu, Shi Hui, Pei Yi, Pei Wern (Pei Yi's sister)


We had this excellent steamboat/barbecue at Restoran Talipon along Jalan Kuchai Lama, off Old Klang Road. All-you-can-eat for only RM 18 per head; quite a steal!

Most importantly, we had fun with the food, playing with crabstick, mushrooms, black pepper beef, eggs and butter... and imitating Chef Wan here and there.


Later we went to an Arabic cafe in Ampang (I forgot the name of the place) for supper. Some observations:

1. Turkish coffee is very strong
2. Arabic tea is pleasant
3. Beware the half-asleep, half-high waiters!
4. Staying late into the night with good friends is a wonderful thing

Eventually we had to leave slightly earlier than we intended to (about just past 1 a.m. instead of 2), as Jin Yu was giving me a lift home, and Dad didn't want me back too late.
