x'Mas 2009 with belOved families~

on x'mas eve mOrning..
ko ko asked me a question while he was busy ironing his shirt...
" do you like x'mas eve betta or x'mas day? "
It took me couple minutes to figure out da answer for such a simple question...
I said:
I used to love x'Mas eve.. as there would parties... happening events... activities like to countdown with whole bunch of frens...
but sadly saying.. as time goes by.. i think I prefer x'Mas day betta...
as being 3 yrs... i got no idea where to celebrate such a beautiful nite...
no longer have the big gang like last time to do crazie stuff together...
was it bcuz there's no new/great place to spend this moment in pg dat able to satisfy myself.. or just me being old? *question question*
I love x'mas day becuz i looking forward the gathering event that gonna have with family~
*cheers~

don't mind me to blog few posts bout 2009...
pics uploaded before counting down for new-year..
feel bad to drag em to 2010...
none-the-less... i don't think it's cool for me to just abandon em..
last-yr-x'Mas..
was it b'cuz I'm really getting old...?
as I was totally out-of-mood to celebrating this merry day at all..
or simply b'cuz it's really out of mah mind..
to think of a gudie cool place to spend this beautiful event...
I did not have any plan-in-advanced...
Mung and I just last-minute chosen a place to have a nice dinner together...
hate to pay extra just bcuz of it's Xmas...
we off to Ingolf..
knowing that they won't charge extra much but still serve yummie goodie foods...
we had luck..
to walk in at 8 ish...
and found a place for 4 around bar area... ^^
they served special Xmas Menu...
prices may be vary a bit from normal time..
but it's stil reasonable and agreeable...
yo ho~
PauLaner to kick start.... *winks~
we had chosen the cream soup for our entre..
Smoked Salmon with Carrots and Cucumber Soup..
it's very delicious indeed...
smoked salmon is always mah fav..
din know that it could be used to cook soup like this at all !!
will surely try it out someday... he he
Lamb Rack with homemade smashed potatoes and tomato Salsa
the lambs are so well-flavoured...
grilled till just nice...
meats are tender enough and remained juicy...
hemmmm.... nice 1...
Turkey and homemade Ham mixture...
Salmon and Fettucine in cream sauce..
the fish is so fresh.. and a big piece of it..
goes really well with the chef recipe cream sauce..
as usual.. the portion is huge...
4 of us ordered only ordered 3 main courses...
it still filled our stomach with no space... -_-
headgears given away~ ^^ only for ladies...
they served with this nice and cute napkins all-nite-long...

don't feel like going any crowded place...
but felt like sitting down and sipping wines with besties...
chose G-Spot... mah fav place...

*JAZZ is Fantastic!! *

too bad.. I don't listen any nice jazz band performed on that nite...
but they decided to play some louder, noisier songs to go along with the party !!
