Nate's BIrthday

For Nate's birthday we all headed over to 'M' at the Fringe Club for a wonderful dinner followed by a drive out to Cyberport for a movie (Pirates of the Carribean 2). Great evening!



We were entertained by Dad's jokes, his spoon, knife and toothpick trick, and the gorgeous turkish coffee and turkish delight for dessert. Main courses were delicious - mine was the best *grin* (crackling pork with caramelized apples) and so I lost most of it before I began!

P.S. John Marriott and his wife came through Hong Kong on his way to the UK for their son's wedding and so we had some fun (they were here for 24 hours!!!). Lunch was Yum Cha and dinner was Cafe Deco at the Peak.


Mrs. Marriot even ate a chicken's foot at lunch - the whole thing and she was the one who asked me if she could try one! Now that's not something visitors do everyday!
