Traditional Chinese meal with Beauties cum Xinli's birthday.

The princess overslept, and we had to wait for her to wake and dress up. Oh my god... Since we promised to eat a traditional Chinese meal together, "steamboat" immediately came to my mind. It was timely too, because Xinli and Ying Fong just came back to Singapore from Germany a few days ago. So the steamboat served as a reunion meal?
We made the soup choice first as Elayne was still on her way, and we regretted for choosing the medium hot 麻辣 soup. It practically killed all of us. And my lips looked like red sausages, I think. In the end, the 麻辣 side became a rubbish chute where we throw unwanted stuffs into.When my dear Elayne finally came, she refused to take a proper photo with me.All she did was to eat 4 pieces of crab and teach us how to act cute.The shop was supposed to close at 3.30pm, but we ordered quite a number of dishes and stayed till 3.45pm. It's only fair and logical that we stay longer because we arrived late.Trying out a special photo-taking mode on Ying Fong's camera.
I ate till I couldn't feel that I was full. Seriously, I think I might have a hole in my stomach.Ying Fong, Xinli and shy Elayne.Long time no see, Xinli and me.And the girls tried the manual 三连拍.

I realised I could not react fast enough for Ying Fong's camera......and that resulted in me having the similar pose in different pictures.But it's still a lot of fun playing around with the camera!Then we had coffee and donuts- sinful high tea right after the buffet steamboat.

One of the donuts is supposed to act as the birthday cake. Didn't know Elayne hate bread so much. :(

I kept wanting to take a picture with the cute little snail but YF just won't let me do it. Auch ein boese Maedchen! Look at the way she's laughing...
Beauties trying very hard to persuade Ying Fong to not play with the lighter. Muahahahaha~

GROUP PHOTOS! It's been ages since we last took group photos! Although I looked kind of ugly, still want to post them up because my beauties looked pretty in them.
Me and Ying Fong were wondering why we were the ones who had to hold the camera.

Anyway, the lunch was great! Thanks for the company... and to Xinli,

Viel Glueck zum Geburtstag, boese Maedchen! (Du wirst nicht allein sein...)
