Mid-Autumn Birthday
KH kickstarted my birthday celebration in September with a scrumptous lunch at Bref by Darren Chin. Knowing my preference for tentacle porn, KH ordered grilled octopus tentacle, and also duck confit. Strangely, the most memorable item of the meal was not the seafood or the poultry, but the potato pave that was beneath the duck leg. My first time having the deliciously crispy slice of 'thousand-layered' potatoes.
Next was coffee at Kopi & Studio, a cafe so quiet that we could be as lovey-dovey as we wanted. In KH's mind, a perfect date must come with a trip to the cinema, so we watched "A Haunting in Venice". Entertaining enough, but Kenneth Branagh is not a memorable Poirot for me. Later in the evening, we had a mid-autumn party hosted by Sim. Think its my second year joining. Same bunch of of people, but some fresh faces as well. Tapau-ed some pork pizzas from Skippy's, and at the same time took some photos at my old Phileo Damansara office.
Lots of good food and laughter as usual. And always impressed by Sim's artistic pursuits. Sim brought out a whole bunch of vintage porn magazines and VCDs, hoping to find a new home for them. Not many takers. Today's generation of gays are bombarded such media on a daily basis. Such printed material are no longer precious, unless you want to keep them as a collectible or for nostalgia purposes.
