月饼节快乐!!!

Actually its tomorrow lah haha... Didn't buy mooncakes this year, but gotta try some from a few hotels. Got 3 boxes of the same flavour from Tung Lok some more... not too bad, but I prefer my snowskin mooncakes more.

So far, I think the best I tasted this year are firstly, Mini Snowskin Lychee, Almond & Dark Chocolate Mooncakes. The combi sounds weird but it tastes heavenly! As the name suggests, its a 巧妙融合 all the 3 flavours and the snowskin itself is chewy and yet melt-ly. Yummmm..... The packaging is very unique and nice too!


The next best one would be Black Sesame Snowskin Mooncakes from Regent. The skin is yummy as well and the black sesame is very 香. Not too sweet, not too jelat, just nice.

Went with 乐 to collect his bursary on Sat evening, where they had a mooncake festival celebration as well. A whole row of lanterns with 灯迷 on it lined the arena... Me n 乐 went around guessing all of them, both chinese and english ones, but this one in particular caught my eye...

Easy. Can you guess the answer? Heh heh...

Just as I was typing (@ work =p), Rong Mo Mo passed me 2 pieces of mooncake from Mandarin Oriental!! And its chocolate!!! Slurpz!!! 幸福. There's a personalized note (in all boxes) from Chef E.Teo too...


Tomorrow gonna celebrate with my little cousins!! Reminds me of years ago when us 4 ninja turtles celebrated with all our uncles and aunties.. Competing with each other to see whose lantern would last the longest, esp when we 'fight' with our lanterns, exploring the darkest corners or areas with our lanterns, etc... Somehow we'll just attract a lot of attention from other kids each year, coz my uncles did things like eg. light up a whole tree with lanterns (no trees were harmed during and after the process), or create a whole 'clothes-line' of lanterns, path of candles, etc. Then when we grew older we started playing with sticks, candles and fire instead ha... we look forward to 月饼节 every year... the good ol' days hmmm...

月饼节快乐 everyone!!! =)
