Year End Lunch with Colleagues

While many took leave on 31st Dec, yours truly is working on the very final day of 2015. Nope, I ain't workaholic but being around in the office with colleagues on new year's eve is kinda enjoyable after all!
To 'celebrate' our last working day of the year, we went out for lunch at Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert place @ IOI City. All other eateries were sort of crowded today, nevertheless we managed to get a table with ample seats and settled ourselves comfortably. This place is famous for its 'tong sui' (desserts/sweet soup), but of course they also served some mains apart from those 'tong sui'.
Here's what I ordered, the dry wonton noodles which came with five pieces of big & succulent wontons...yumzzz!
 another colleague ordered a similar version but with the char siu (bbq pork)...
Another popular item in the menu is the 'mui choy' pork braised rice. Looks good but too much fatty layers.
 I have been craving for the mango pomelo sago dessert, and here's is it!
Pretty good too...
 back in the office, each of us got a X'mas cum New Year gift from one of our dealers...
choc chip cookies and some-sort of sweets from Isle of Man ;-)
Well, I dun have sweet tooth, but I m happy receiving gifts from afar...
This would be my last post in 2015, till then Happy New Year 2016!

Happy New Year to you and your family! May you have a great 2016! I agree that the mango pomelo sago dessert is very nice. I have eaten it at the 1U branch.

RealGunners: 50% fatty layer is still acceptable...their mui choy pork has exceeded my threshold...

Mun: happy new year to u too ;-)

Wow! Very, very interesting!

I've never been to the Isle of Man, never had any food/sweets/snacks from the Isle of Man too. What does it taste like?

Happy New Year! :)

St Michael, Barbados

During the weekdays, the driver would picked us (me & colleague) from the apartment at 8am daily. Sometimes he would use different route...
