My birthday dinner at The Racing Club

My birthday dinner at The Racing Club 01

Mabel celebrated my birthday at The Racing Club. As usual, she had a phone conference at 7PM. We arrived early at the club, so that she could call in while having a drink at the bar before dinner. She had been extremely busy with her job, and I really appreciate her efforts to make some time on my birthday. I certainly didn't even expect a dinner date with her on my birthday because of her recent schedule. It was a little surprise for me when she said that she made a reservation for my birthday.

The dinner was good, Tuna Tartar, Lobster Bisque, Lobster Tail, Risoto, , a bottle of red wine, 2 glasses of champagne, finishing off with a Tiramisu... it's more than fulfilling!

Pre-celebrating my birthday

It was a short day at work on Saturday. I had to meet Robert and Maud at Macau Jockey Club for lunch. The food there was ok, just thought that it would be kid-friendly with less people, which is hard to find in HK! Robert's girl was quite talkative now, very nice and friendly. Too bad that his boy did not feel very well, so he was kind of sleepy and quiet.

Pre-celebrating my birthday with my best friends at a dinner was one of the best thing ever happened for the past few weeks. The food was really good! Thanks to Esther and Francis for bringing us to such a fine restaurant! Sorry, we didn't take any pictures until we finished all the great food. For sure it is one restautant that we will return to, so we can take some pictures next time. Elsa and Marco had been really busy for the past week, and they did not hesitate to join us for it even though they were so tired. But hey, six of us promised to visit a new restaurant every month, right? So you can't hide! Oh... I forgot to mention that Hancock celebrated with us at IFC before the dinner too!

So... I will be twenty-six in a couple days, right? :D

Another birthday for Esther... Celebating her birthday close to 20 times really mean something. Friendship, and age! Well... did I know Esther when I was just born?! Keke... I guess I can't lie about my age. I am still young at heart though, you know?

Thanks to my best friends here in HK! They've been driving me to places that I wouldn't have gone without a car. We went to a restaurant in 西貢.  The food here is very nice, some real western food without being "Chinese washed".

After the dinner, Francis insisted to pay for it. We've been pushing the money around like the old Chinese folks. We gave up and went to dessert at 滿記 nearby.  We walked to the garage for our cars, and Marco threw the money into Francis' car then we all ran like a high school kid... yeah, so much about 小學雞!! (I love that terms~) We ran and broke away... so where did Elsa go? Was she kidnapped? She had some high heels on! Keke... she was actually hiding and then joined us when she was safe. It was funny!

I love my friends!

P.S. Esther is officially announced to be 25 year old (rolleyes)
