Mum & Daughter Date

Well… today only Annabelle and me at home as both Alvin and Issac had joined the Kuala Lumpur District Young Men Camp. So, we have a mother and daughter date today.

We were going for our movie date then lunch. We were watching the hottest in town - “Crazy Rich Asians”. Crazy Rich Asians is the current big hit in movie theatres right now.

It is a rom-com movie about a guy, Nick Young, who brings home his Asian-American girlfriend to be introduced to his family in Singapore. Only then does the girlfriend, Rachel, realise that her boyfriend is a “crazy rich Asian” and has to keep up with all the glitz and glamour, contend with weird relatives and gossip among envious socialites while trying to win over the heart of his domineering mother.

The movie, adapted from Kevin Kwan’s book by the same title, is directed by Jon M. Chu, and has an all-Asian cast, including Malaysian darlings Henry Golding as Nick Young and Michelle Yeoh as his mother, Eleanor Young.

This is the first time Annabelle and I went out having our movie date without the boys in the house. I bought the twin seats tickets at MBO cinemas Subang Parade. I enjoyed the movie very much. Annabelle experienced her first ever rich love story. We were talking about the scenes from the movie.

After the movie, it was just nice that we can have our Dave’s famous original 1/4 roast chicken and beef rissole at the famous ever Dave’s Deli.

We love the roast chicken very much. Marinated in their special secret recipe of herbs and spices then slow roasted to perfection. It served with mash potatoes, coleslaw, roasted vegetables and topped with their signature gravy. Yummy!

Dave’s signature grilled minced beef patty topped with black pepper mushroom sauce. Serve with mash potatoes, coleslaw and roasted vegetables as well. Nice! We compliment with a plate of loaded cheesy fries!
