Birthday Dinner
Welcome to #SublimeSunday, a tag presenting you with the unique opportunity to post something a bit different, wacky, crazy or just whatever takes your fancy, initiated by @c0ff33a ☕️
And also #BeautifulSunday initiated by @ace108
So, another get together birthday/dinner.
As with previous occasions, the mahjong players arrived early and had a game of mahjong. The rest of the gang, came as and when they are ready. Our host, Ernest, cooked up another sumptuous meal for us.
Steamed prawns. Prawns painstakingly arranged, lathered with ginger sauce, sprinkled with wolfberries, steamed and garnished with coriander.
Omelette with scallops garnished with coriander.
Chicken Claypot Rice. Claypot rice with Chicken, salted fish, and sausages with a generous sprinkle of fried onions and chopped spring onions.
Braised pork. Strips of belly pork braised to perfection. It might look a bit on the dull side, - it could be because of the colour of the pot, but I assure you the dish was divine – if you are one who appreciates belly pork.
Ernest’s homemade salad. Long beans chopped and mixed with beancurd.
A mixed vegetable dish of mushrooms, spring onions, cabbage, dried soya sticks and glass noodles.
A plate of stir fried noodles with mushrooms and spring onions. (Ernest's version of longevity noodles)
This is roast London duck, contributed by Toon Chian, a new addition to the group, who due to work and family commitment hasn’t been able to join us as frequently.
A group photo. All anxiously waiting for it to be over, so we can dig in.
The Birthday cake. Light and absolutely fabulous chocolate mousse cake. Just what we needed after a heavy meal.
And here are the stars of the evening – the birthday boy and birthday girl. Happy Birthday to you both, and many happy returns of the day!
All in all, another day/evening well spent catching up with each other. Good company, good food, lots of fun and laughter. Everyone’s life should have more of such days!

Quite a lot of work to cook up the meal even though someone brought the duck.
My friend seems to have a natural talent for cooking. He prepared all ingredients in the morning. When we arrived, he just periodically disappeared into the kitchen and tada - dinner is ready. 😊 !trdo
Good friend to have. 😎
That is exactly what the group said. They said that as long as we have him for a friend, we will always be able to eat good food. 😊
Excellent post, really enjoyed it.

Holy smokes! Can Earnest cook or what? Wow. Is he a chef?
Ernest is an artist. 😊
Must be nice to have friends like that!
Very. They make life more fun and easier to take.
They make life easier to take. Does that mean life is hard to take?
It depends on how good you are taking life. It is hard for some, easy for others. But having friends will surely make it easier.
And beer too! lol...howdy today sir Vincent! This comment was 2 days ago but I missed it on esteem but saw it on steemit.
Howdy Jonboy. Yes, and some beer would be nice. It would make life a lot easier to take.
I saw your post on Hive. Are you migrating over there, or are you posting on both platforms? Things are a bit confusing for me at the moment. 😊
