Last Friday, Feb 2nd, after about two years of talking about going, we finally went out and enjoyed a piece of Dine out vancouver. The first year was supposed to be in jan 2005, but Kairo beat us to it :)
We picked a Thai restaurant ,Chillies on Beach Ave to try and it was quite good. We were thinking to try Cru on West Broadway, apparently it was really quite nice dining and all, but when we tried to book up the place 1 week before our planned date, the place has already been booked up. So yeah, Chillies is one of the $25 ones, very reasonable, but it really tasted good and after that we got to walk around by the Marina there for a bit only though, yeah, skirt and boots just don't cut it for this weather:)
I started with Tuna Lettuce wrap for appies while Shun started with the prawncakes...both were pretty good, though they could lessen the fish sauce on the lettuce wrap ...ah what the heck, I LOVE fish sauce:)..For entree, shun picked the beef short rib in Thai sauce and I chose the tigerprawn with greenbean and basil. The beefshort rib were quite spicy actually, but nonetheless yummy:) and for dessert Shun picked the boring mango ice cream and fried banana:) and I tried their Thai style tapioca pudding...all were really good and I think my alcohol tolerance has increased since the last time I drank because I ordered a glass of Cesar , drank it all and didn't even get a hive..like at all. This was an accident by the way..didn't really like the taste of vodka but forgot to tell the waitress that i wanted the drink virgin...:)
The kids are doing good, my school is still behind...same old same old:) Oh , we ran into Nat Cliff and Alexis last Sunday at The Bay Metrotown. As soon as the elevator door opened, I heard this very loud " Oh my God" courtessy of Nathalie of course:) We joined ourselves to sitting with them at the food court and at the end kairo got a DQ ice cream treat from Alexis...yum:) It was cute how the two sort of play together...Alexis was very nurturing...she brought her toys to kairo, came and pat his back, and even told Kairo that Indie is his sister...hahahha:) She is really sweet Nat...I think you guys should seriously thinking about getting her a brother or sister!!:)
And the day before that was Mr. Sales' 1st b'day. Too bad I didn't get to use my camera at all. But it was fun to hang out again and for the kids to play around in the ball pit. It would've been a good time to try to practice some shots huh Liz? Lots of colors, kids running around, falling all over the place...ahh..next time:)
Well, since , as mentioned, I didn't get to use my camera at Rylan's b'day, didn't bring my camera when we ran into Alexis and her parents, the only picture we have is the boring one of us at Chillies and one of Kairo and Indie. I don't know how he managed to get in to the exersaucer while Indie is still in it...must be painful for her...ouch..

It was fun having lunch with you guys. We for sure have to ride the train next time. Alexis slept almost instantly when we left you... Kairo tired her out =P
Another child? Hmmm, not right now... too much work. Alexis would rather have a sister though. When we ask her how about a brother, she says "No never mind!"
lol, Kairo and Indie, too cute. Kairo looks so grown up in that picture. Claudia, I didn't want to post my dine out pictures with Shun too in case you get jealous, lol.
hahaha...no nevermind for a brother huh Nat?:) that's too funny:) Yes, for sure next time we should do the choo choo train...it's quite fun actually, and you wouldn't believe how many adults tap on the train...
it's okay Liz, I won't get jealous...Shun always insisted to come spend the night with me so he couldn't had that good of a time with anybody else....hahhahaha:)
