Jumbo Seafood

Time for three

We didn't have much time for ourselves lately since we introduce ourselves to social circles. Not that we have much enlistments, but had quite a few to keep us busy most of the time.

Today, as I mark my blog debut on my 36th birthday, I thought of spending my spare time to those surfing the net for information and worthwhile readings. While I am still contemplating on what I consider worthwhile (wink), I planned to enjoy the rest of my day in an uncomplicated, quiet time for just the three of us. A simple dinner for three- Me, Paige- our 5 yr old "super sweet" daughter and Bart-my ever "full of surprise" hubby, who made a self declaration of  "wifecare" on my day, Awwww--sweet! 

However, my plan for simple night did not push thru as hubby Bart have something else in mind-- a dinner to JUMBO SEAFOOD ( East Coast Park) for just the three of us, classic and sublime!

Spotted at Jumbo so full yet-- full of mix emotions from our "afternoon tea" of  3 Idiots (hahahah, huhuhuhu, hihihihihi), which by the way we watched for more than 4 intermittent hours. Yeah, 4 hours! So we decided to  settle for a few BEST OF JUMBO! At 7 pm the place is already halfway packed with seafood diet-i-cians as we arrived.

While waiting, Paige was so engrossed with peanut in chili sauce (what a combo) and hot tea to start with then

I and Bart had a great choppy sticking on these baby squids!

As the star of jumbo is served, an all time crowds' favorite--CHILI CRAB! Yes, it is!

Man-tou

Aaahhh....so yummy... crunchy... chili... hot... sweet... soft -- all in one night for just the three of us. Too bad for Paige she did not enjoy as much as we did, until we ordered her favorite stir-fried beef with ginger and onions, which I forgot to take the picture as we were all busy: Paige devouring her beef, while Bart and I still licking our fingers with the sweet chili hot sauce. Insanely Delicious!

When we reached home, we had an ooohhh-la-la dessert which I baked that afternoon while waiting for Paige to come home from school. The one and only pre-occupation on "My Day"-- the star of the night Cheesecake!

Though I did not get my night in the house, instead, we had a simple night out dinner @ Jumbo! Thank you, Lalab & Paige! Me lab u both very much!
