Here is an very nice serpentine angpow for the year of the dragon in 2012. I got this from a relative during a dinner reunion last night. Just loved the intricate design with the appropriate theme that it shows.
Got an octagonal box of 13 oranges – I ate one already – leaving 12 here. Chinese love the figure 8 which means luck, hence the octagonal shape. This was a gift from my boss for the year’s work.
Here is the deco to the entrance of Lee Gardens Plaza in Hatyai where I spend 3 days and 2 nights with my family. It was situated just opposite 2 big shopping complexes where I did some of my shopping for the cheaper exchange rate to Thai Baht.
Just before CNY, we had Indian buffet on a Thursday at Lone Pine Hotel along Batu Feringghi. For Thursdays, the buffet theme was Indian, while Mondays and Tuesdays were hawkers’ fare and Wednesdays was steamboat buffet. For Fridays, it was dine and wine costing double the price at $98 per person.
More pictures of the Indian theme buffet dinner at Lone Pine Hotel. A picture is worth a thousand words, isn’t it?
A final picture with a waitress attending to the food. We went there early, so we were one of the first few people to savour the food.
