Steamboat Soiree
Note: Forgive the staleness factor. I blame it on Acer. :P
The first time Anton extended an invitation to me was for BKT on National Day. But I had to take a raincheck on that. So, when Anton asked me out again, I tried my best to make it. It was steamboat at Yuen, Sunway. I wasn't exactly keen on that venue (the owner's cute son doesn't exactly causes my heart to flutter), but it's the gathering that counts I guess. Was a great chance to finally meet Anton, TZ and Bong in person. Pikey was the earliest to arrive, booking us a table on the first floor. By 6:30pm, Anton arrived and we decided to begin without the rest. By the time TZ and Bong had arrived, I was already at 80% capacity. No real crowd on the Friday night. Must be exam season for students or something. Can you imagine that there was no need to elbow someone to get some grilled chicken wings? That cut down the enjoyment for some people I guess. There were actually 3 birthday celebrations going on and the singing was going on one after another. Some tables even felt left out and sang too. Crazy.
During the course of the dinner, we touched on many subjects and eventually the subject of blogger feuds came up. Well, it's no secret that I'm part of the BFF, and I'm quite amused that the BFF has its fair share of detractors and "enemies" so to speak. I'm not quite sure what happened in the past for the BFF to be labeled as pretentious snobs, but the whole situation is quite transparent to me. I guess when we start slinging mud, it becomes something we love to do. I love to hate you. Or something like that. Perceptions would be skewed to fit our perceptions. I'm not here to set the record straight or anything (I feel that it's none of my business), but I'll just say that if people don't click, then I guess they just don't click. Time to move on.
Anton, Pikey and I were busy pinging our dars and we came back with several results. Pikey had his striped-shirt guy to oogle at and Anton was daringly letting loose "electricity" from his eyes to a "squeaky-clean" cutie (who Pikey describes as has "a Jap porn star" look) beside our table. After dinner, we rushed over to PappaRich, OKR after Grandma Twilight requested that Pikey and I have an audience with him. Grandma was so happy to see my face instead of the back of my head that he treated me to a cup of hot milk tea. Michi was there too. I got to experience firsthand his firebrand style. Drop his name for a 10% discount PappaRich! However, I left after half an hour or so because I needed my beauty sleep for the wet market the next day. Until next time...
P.S.: Anton said that I look smaller in person. Damn. The camera adds 20lbs!
P.P.S.: I survived the dinner without any cross-contamination from the gang's daring style of eating half-cooked oysters! It's like eating fugu!
