Happy bdae kok vui
HAPPY BDAE KOK VUI!
had a wonderful gathering with the aero peeps today to celebrate Kok vui's 21st. NOt to mention we were honoured to have the company of Bingfeng who just cam back from GIP not long ago. *woo hoo*... dinner was at Pu Tien, a restaurant recommended by Jonathan, our unknown foodie who has the likes of visiting new restaurants every gathering. tee hee. Dinner was norm, nothing specatacular, but the cusine a bit perculiar. Didn't fancy it very much, perhaps its becoz i just had chinese cusine for my popo's bdae a few days back. Palate still very much uncleared of. But nonetheless the company was great and we had a loads of laid-back fun during the dinner.
The cake which i baked for Kok Vui, weighed a hefty 2.2kg... imagine lugging tt to the restaurant. Thank god i hailed a cab. haha. Anyway, it was inspired by Kok vui's fave cake the Black Forest Cake. However, this one was a flop by my standard. haha. Wasn't much lyke a black forest cake. so we named it the 'Flame of the Forest' instead. WAHAHA. well, at least the layers came out pretty good. haha. the whipped cream was delicious. just wished i had soaked the cherries in brandy a tad longer, perhaps the flavour would have sinked in a bit more. And of course loads of work has to be done to the chocolate base. nonetheless, the crowd of guys appreciated it.. and wiped out the whole entire cake albeit for the tiny piece left which was used to dunk kok vui's head into it. Guys!!! u shld have seen how violent they were. you could practically head the 'thud' when they knocked his forehead to the table board. *tsk tsk*.. haha.. worst still, they were discussing what evil things they had planned for my bdae. MUAH CHEE on the sand... NOOOO!!! spare me...
After dinner plans were abolished as we all had to return to rest for the early program the next day. Damm aerospace seminar.. BAH.. so, we had to settle for a gossip session all the way back on the train. which was fine with me. haha.. fresh news about the GIP pple certainly was intriguing. haha.
