Mothers' Day weekend

We had quite an eventful weekend these last few days, mostly due to the fact that we did a lot of jalan-jalan cari makan again! :) Baby was pretty excited too considering the fact that she was pretty active the whole weekend as well.

It started on Friday night when our usual group went out for dinner to celebrate Karen's belated birthday. We went to this little joint on Chulia Street called "Ecco" where they served mostly Italian food; pizza, pasta etc. Look at what we had:


Pumpkin soup



Linguine with ham, mushrooms, olives and capsicum



Calzone



Spinach fettucine-looks funny but very yummy!



Pizza with spicy chicken



Hubby and I



Jenny, Ai Nee & Karen

The food was pretty good; all the pizza and pasta was handmade, which gave it a really light taste, not too "jelak". However, it was rather hot there as there was only one fan.

So after that we headed to this place called "Sugar Dynasty" near New World Park for "Tong Shui" and also to cut the birthday cake.

So that was Friday night. On Saturday night we had our dinner at another Italian place called "El Mondo Pizza" at e-Gate near Tesco, together with Steven, June Siang, Chia Yin, Kok Hsiang and Isabelle. Hubby and I had been there once before and the food was pretty good. However, it must have been due to their short-handed staff that Saturday night that the service was incredibly slow. The food was still good, nonetheless. We were too hungry by the time the food arrived so nobody thought of taking any pictures of the food!

The whole gang (well, almost)

Sunday was Mothers' Day so we took Hubby's mum for dim sum at Northam Hotel in the morning. The food was pretty good, and inexpensive considering that we had a 50% discount with the use of our HSBC credit card. However, the fruit juices were RM10-00 a glass! So that was RM30-00 just for juices! *Shudder* We took some nice pictures though:

Happy Mothers' Day! Love, Cass and Candice

So all in all it was an enjoyable weekend. Baby's Mummy got to eat all her favourite foods; Italian as well as yummy dim sum. Hopefully Baby enjoyed it too!
