Pork Cutlet Rice and..... St James... Again!

Went Vivo City with my colleagues for dinner yesterday. Took a while trying to figure out what to eat when someone (can't remember who) suggested the HongKong Kin Gary cafe. So we went. We were fairly early, so not much dinner crowd. The menu was just typical HK cafe style with the usual rice and "instant noodles" thingy.

I went straight for the pork cutlet rice (猪扒饭) under SW's recommendation. Tweetie did the same but with hot milk tea (热奶茶). SW had the shredded pork rice with an egg. MK & MA both were interested in baked curry. So we ordered. I completed my set with iced milk tea (冻奶茶).

Tweetie... like as though she cooked it!

The pork cutlet rice was savoury. Not too salty, but pity the 2 slices of pork cutlet was a tad too pathetic. If they had made it once big piece, then it will be perfect. (Shall I start charging them consultancy fees?!)

MK and her very complicated Mango coconut milkshake??

After dinner, we walked around a bit to get the food digested. Tweetie did some shopping and bought a nice turquoise-blue top. And very much expected, she just changed into it immediately and wore that for the rest of the night.

After all that mucking around Vivo City, we made our way to St James. It was still raining when we walked over. Although there was a sheltered bridge and a covered walkway all the way to St James, it didn't cover fully to the back where POWERHOUSE was. So the 5 of us silly girls just ran all the way there in the rain!

We got in, and the bouncer told us the cashier hadn't arrived yet, so we were let in to enjoy the air conditioning (-_-) but had to wait more than half an hour before the cashier decided to turn up and issue us the 5 drink coupons.

Anyway, the music started off as (-_-) (-_-) (-_-) in the beginning. We got our drinks and then sat and chatted and people watched for a while. Of course we didn't forget to hog the camera!

We decided it was boring in POWERHOUSE after awhile, and then decided to walk around exploring. We went upstairs to BELLINI ROOM. Looked down from the corridor into the various other rooms.

MA caught sight of a live band performing and Tweetie told her it was MOVIDA. Latino music. And MA got very excited. So we went down. Into MOVIDA and partied on. MA & Tweetie were hilariously all over the dance floor shaking their asses off. It was really funny to see them dance. But of course they had their fair share of seriously sensuous moves... ooohhhh.....

Then of course we hog the camera somemore.

See what I mean? We could get enough of ourselves!

And 3 musketeers who treated us to some champagne & cocktails because it was one of their birthdays (sorry don't remember which one and their names! But thank you very much)


And not to miss out some action on the dance floor. Tweetie & MA twisting and shaking away!

Hmmm... Who's this man?

We moved back into POWERHOUSE after we were so tired laughing and dancing. Had to queue to get more drinks. Tweetie was still shaking her butt away to the music. More fun and laughter followed. Suddenly, MA said she lost her mobile phone! Must have been a pick-pocket. She had her phone in the pocket of her jacket and it was tied to her waist. So some jerk must have seen it and stolen it. Curse the idiot!

Anyway, MA lodged a report with the bouncers at the front entrance, filled in some forms. Party over. SW had to almost drag Tweetie into a cab. MK and myself hopped into separate cabs and so did MA after she was done with her report.

What an ending...

ME!!!! It was me who suggested Kim Gary (so do I get a nice little kiss on my wobbly cheeks?? hehehe!)

I love the way you did an account of it. I should just cut-and-paste it all and put it in TweetieTalk, just edit it into a first person account. :P

I was googling for fuji mt. and accidently? start reading your postings. It is fasinating, far from mundane life, your foreign distant land. Feels like I am reading Graham Greene's novel of exotic places. pk st.louis, mo. usa
