Birthday Celebration @ Manhattan Fish Market

Sometime Nov last year, my lunch kakis celebrated one of our member's b'day in MFM. We choose this venue coz they were havin' some sort of promotion & freebie for the b'day person.

The freebies are a tower drink (softdrink) which could fill up 8 glasses & 2 desserts of your choice.

the b'day gal chooses vanilla icecream on brownie

 and icecream on sizzling bananas...these bananas were so ripe that it taste overly sweet...

 while waiting for others, we also munched on fried mushrooms (at the middle, small bowl)

 here's my order...I converted the dory fish to salmon fish at no extra charge...I kinda like this set coz it has some leafy greens to go with the plain fish & chips

the 8 of us were so full after this heavy meal of main course, ala-carte dishes, desserts, fruit punch & softdrinks!



Snacks & Masks

Years ago, I kept an amount of leftover $ from my biz trip, back then our currency was still strong. I thought of using it if I ever hav the chance of goin there again....Well, I did not and our currency has dwindled so much that exchanging foreign currency is not worthwhile, what more goin for a personal trip! My Korean Won has been kept for 4 years before it finally put to good use, as my annoying sis decided to go there for a trip with her fren. I gave her a big angpow of 135k USD WON....come to tink of it I felt myself so generous...muahahaha!

alrite, the amount wasn't that big...it used to be a petty amount back in 2012...

 and since things are expensive too in Seoul, u can't buy much with that amount of $$$.

Here's what she got back for us...

mostly junks & masks....

but i'm happy that I got something edible!

yea, i'm a happy junkie monster...

Home Made Fish Head Noodles - Part 2

This outlet is one of our favorite lunch place...Having been here for quite a number of times (see old post here). But each time I went, I usually ordered the meehoon (rice vermicelli). This time I decided with yee mein (egg noodles) in milky fish broth. Pricewise is almost the same (can't remember), anyhow they still have the same promotion since 2015....where u get to have a free hot drink (coffee or jasmine tea) upon order of any fish head/paste noodles.

Bon Appetit!
