Happy 1st Anniversary

my fav flowers lilies and choco

It's been one year! I received a surprise from John today! Even though we cannot be physically together on our anniversary day, our hearts are always together!

I ♥ New York - Benihana

calamari tempura

the beef is so juicy

live entertainment - cooking my food :) the fact that the chef cooks right in front of you and prepare your food makes the whole dinner much more interesting and entertaining

♥ Macau - MGM

It's Sunday so I decided to take a study break in the afternoon. Alice and I just randomly walked around in Wynn and MGM. Last week I had afternoon tea at Peninsula in Hong Kong, this week I wanted to try afternoon tea in Macau. Therefore, we went to the cafe in MGM. Their afternoon tea is okay, the dessert is good (with my fav chestnut cake) but the scones are not amazing, especially the cream is actually melted. The environment is good though and I especially like their cinnamon cappuccino. An afternoon tea for study break is always GREAT!

♥ California - In N' Out

Every time I go to California, In N' Out is a MUST eat! Before heading home back to Macau in Jan, I stopped by Davis and SF for a few days. One of the best lunch I had in Davis (except Fuji sushi buffet) is In N' Out! I have had it for many times and yet animal style fries still tastes the best to me! Animal style fries is my fav "Western fries" and the best "Eastern fries" is Pomme Frites in St. Marks in NYC.

super yummie animal style burger

enjoying my burger and fries very much in Davis

I ♥ New York - White Castle

The first time I heard about White Castle was from the movie Herald and Kuma. After hearing so much about it, I decided to take the subway up to this famous fast food place. The burgers are indeed very mini! John and I finished 8 burgers with fries. The bread was really soft but I was disappointed from my "over expectation", mainly because of the restaurant itself. The one I went was on 30sth street and it was so quiet inside without any music and surprisingly there were only a few people eating there.

It is good to go for the first time and try out the "famous" white castle mini burgers but I definitely would not be a frequent visitors to this fast food place.

Happy 1st Anniversary - Afternoon Tea

Afternoon Tea at Peninsula :) we waited for an hour for this afternoon tea (our brunch at 3:30pm) but it worth the wait! Very nice environment with delicious food. I especially like my peach flavor tea. It feels so relaxing to sit at a nice place, enjoy some snacks and forget all the stress and worries you have in life. Only if life can be like this everyday then it would be perfect!

Am I too greedy? I guess so :P

Happy 1st Anniversary - Caprice

We had our anniversary dinner at Four Seasons Hong Kong. We tried the 8 course tasting menu in Caprice. Being one of only two restaurants in Hong Kong to receive three prestigious Michelin stars, I give it a big "YES"!

Took a break away from home for Easter Holiday. I spent a few days in Hong Kong with John :0) First day, we went to the peak but too bad it was very cloudy and foggy but Wax Museum is fun!

Time flies! Its already been a year since I am with John. Dinning in a nice restaurant, walking hand in hand outside are the best thing in life! With so many memories in the past, with you is the best memory I have ever had!
