back for a rest after stuffing face at friend's wedding lunch at Peranakan Restaurant Blue Ginger. Just couldn't stop eating cos the food was so tasty, the company was great and we were just so hungry after a morning of activity - including the bargaining process at the door where the groom was made to eat a series of "food items" consisting of the four dominant tastes - sweet (sugar syrup poured over kueh lapis). sour (pure lemon with vinegar concoction), bitter (cross-sectional slices of bittergourd) and spicy/hot (chilli sambal sandwiches). We also came up with a "yucky" - raw egg with mayonnaise and soya sauce. He was also made to do a series of embarrassing actions (including sing - which turned out to be his weakness). Quite fun. Groom was quite impressive and took everything in his stride.. looks like he is really eager to marry our dearest friend.. :) glad for her...

recovering now (with the help of Eno and Earl Grey Tea) from the stuff-face session. The free flow of pong tauhu, kueh pai tee, ayam panggan blue ginger, otak otak, steamed tiger prawns, ayam buah keluak, assam fish, oyster vegetable, babi pong tay, durian chendol and gula melaka, , coupled with our being hungry and greedy made us just eat and eat and eat (like there is no tomorrow - as the wise ones always say..:))..

think i will go for a walk/run before showering and going down to Brewerz to continue the celebrations!
