Somehere in the distant past, after an indulgent holiday with the body and mind fully recharged, a dome drink beckons me near a the airport terminal.

Thoughts of ageing the wine in the midst of the lush and dark storeroom cellar of sun-drenched HDB storeroom and finally presenting it to my future wife - seems priceless for the future...

04 Sep 2011 - after the birth of Matthias, the vintage Dome of 10+ years was remembered and presented - it was drunk without the passion and majestic moments as i had imagined years back...

This set the impetus of the cells in the main conrol center racing.... its time to capture all my memories and experiences crafted up there in the form of a blog so that it can be part of the distant memories even though some things can never be much appreciated or so as one may think...

Dim Sum

Dim sum refers to a Chinese style prepared as small bite-sized or individual portions of food traditionally served in small steamer baskets or on small plates. And as a continuation of the post birthday celebration, mum treated us to dim sum buffet.

 Jellied pork skin and BBQ chicken wings
 
 

 Sesame bao and chive dumplings
 
 Xiao long bao and prawn dumplings




 Durian beard and desserts

Each dishes is so unique and when it comes to choosing, take everything to sample as long as your stomach can bag all the ordered food. The food is good and most importantly, it is cheap!! about $16.80/pax.

Had cravings for buffet for months and this bout of food gorging definitely left me satisfied. Guess it has assisted me in regaining and maintaining my balance in the following months to come without buffet....

 
Shantou buffet - must try!! but please remember to make booking for it is always full house. We went on a weekday afternoon thinking that it will be empty. OMG.... We are wrong...the restaurant is packed to the brimmed and make us wonder why- aren't these people working on a weekday afternoon?
