Reunion Dinner in London

My sister Rose and I had a wonderful reunion dinner with another Singaporean at the Gold Mine Chinese restaurant, Bayswater London.

Kang Ling is a first year law student at Bristol University.

I am not much of a meat eater but Rose and Kang Ling were not choosy and enjoyed the dinner.

I had most of claypot tofu.

Kang Ling had a taste of home when I packed some pineapple tarts and almond cookies for her.

Kang Ling is young and exuberant and we enjoyed her company. The restaurant was packed and business was hectic.

On the 2nd day we had our version of oysters with lettuce. We used canned smoked oysters

On the 7th day we had this Chinese New Year treat. Fried fish with scampi, squid and calamari in sweet sour sauce garnished with pineapple, tomatoes, spring onions and coriander.

On 15th day we had vegetarian.

Foods you must try while in UK.

Fish and chips

Scones with strawberry jam and fresh Devon cream

Strawberry yoghurt chocolate

Potato crisps

Louisaz says enjoy the treats while you are overseas but do it in moderation
