Barbey!!

Great barbecue. Juicy lamb ribs. Need I elaborate? But the revelation of the day was this Korean salad which one of my friend, Amin prepared. It was simple but hardly plain simple. Strip of beef with some marinated sauce taken on a leaf of lettuce. Not exactly my idea of a snack, but it worked.

The ready of the barbecue was excellent as usual. Syahril was in top form. The marinated lamb ribs was heavenly.

Hey! The cakes almost gone!

We had a good long chat afterwards. Catching up really. A nice break from my busy work schedule lately. It ended with a spot of football with the kids, but my boys were hardly interested. Wuss!

Now, I need to find a way to burn all those calories...

Happy Birthday Old Boy

It was a hectic afternoon yesterday with stops in the ward, followed by a visit to my friend's birthday barbecue and picking up my sister at the airport on her return from Disneyland Hong Kong.

The birthday boy was Syahril, my roommate from Sheffield. Currently, he is a Neurosurgeon in UKM Medical Center. He was away in England on his last birthday and today, he invited us over for his barbecue. But since I was heading to airports straight after, I had to come alone.

No. He did not have wagyu beef for the barbecue. But the dessert was expertly prepared by his wife. A couple of items - cream caramel and Oreo cheesecake. Heaven!
