M's Birthday Dinner

Last Tuesday, July the 14th was M's 27th birthday. Since we've celebrated his birthday with his family earlier on weekend, we decided to have a lovely dinner at our home, just the two of us. His birthday dinner was prepared all by myself this time. Blessedly, he's satisfied with just a seafood dish and a dessert.

Sweet & Spicy/ Sour Crab: This is one of my my future FIL's specialties. His version was posted here. Thank you for passing the recipe to me, Uncle Mike!

Fried mantau bun: The buns were fried to perfection, crispy on the outside while it is still soft in the inside. Fried buns and crab sauce for dipping are perfect combination. Yumm!!

Chendol Pudding: One of M's fav dessert from me. (Will post the recipe on my Food Friday entry tomorrow).

M's Early Birthday Celebration

Lat Saturday, we celebrated M's birthday at his parent's. It was an early birthday celebration because his actual birthday falls on a Tuesday. We had a 4 seasons dish to start with, followed by a scrumptious tomyam and chicken soup steamboat, and ended with a yummy~licious cake.

According to our norm, the birthday boy/ girl gets to order his/ her food. Usually M's parents will cook for the birthday boy/ girl. But this time round, since M has ordered mine & his mom specialty foods, his dad gets an off day.

Flower deco made with love by me, using tomato skin and cucumber.


4 Seasons : Fried Prawn Dumplings/ Salad Prawns (by me), Stir-fry sweet peas with abalone (by M's mom), Fried Eggs with fan see (by M's mom), and lastly baby octopus (bought from Fatman Steamboat).


Tomyam and chicken soup base steamboat (by me).


Best Tong Tung Kwa Butter Cake topped with almond nibs, baked with love by M's mom.
Happy Birthday again, darling! Am now looking forward to your brother's birthday next month. I wonder what will he orders? hehe

Happy Thursday, peeps! Hope you guys enjoyed the pics i took.
