Keong and Li satisfied my craving for Hotpot Culture!

$13.80++ for cooked food buffet only.
$24.80++ for cooked food and hotpot buffet.

We ended up having the $13.80++ buffet, cos spending more than $10 for steamboat buffet?!
Not worth it.
So we'll be visiting Hotpot Culture soon, after they pass out from Sispec.

But I have to say, their food's really good!
Cooked only when you order them.
Even the way they serve the coffee's unique.

Filter on top, with coffee powder in it.
We have to wait a few minutes before the coffee's ready to be drank.
I've never seen coffee served in this manner. Hahaha.

And we had a bowl of laksa each.
Tasted really good!

Hotpot Culture's homemade meatballs, fried seafood tofu (which Keong ended up gobbling down my share), sambal beansprouts, prawn paste chicken, ASSAM SOTONG.
So many of my favourite food. (:

And we had ice cream and chocolate fondue for desserts.

Thick, warm, DARK chocolate!

I was telling Keong the chocolate's really warm.
Dip your marshmellow in, and throw it into your mouth immediately.
And that dumb thing really did it, and scald his tongue slightly.
HAHAHA.

This is only one of my many cravings for buffets.
I'm still craving for Chongqing hotpot, Sakae 90mins lunch buffet, Hotpot Culture's hotpot buffet.
And I'm hoping Ichiban sushi has buffets.

I became a part-time mother for a day, and it's really tiring!

Brought my nieces to the park, with Li.
Thank goodness he came, or I wouldn't be able to keep my eyes on these 2 monkeys.
They run really fast.

See how they balance themselves so well on these boards?
Li fell off the moment he went up. Hahaha.

And I allowed them to touch the sand with their bare hands.
They were soooo happy.
I think they were usually not allowed to.

I was laughing my head off when they played with the see-saw.
Their conversation with Li was funny!



And I managed to catch it on video!
I think it's Li's first time being called a fat pig.
The fattest pig on earth.
Hahaha.
Children are really funny with their words.

I like the way they watch out for one another.
I was never like this with my sister.

She was trying to lift her sister up on the other side, so that she can get on that thing.
This used to be my favourite playground fun.
I always got my dad to lift me up and down, but now I know it's really tiring.
I can barely lift them up!

And they loved my coolio sunglasses!
Though I've never had a chance to wear them.

Hahaha.
Both of them had their turn in almost falling off the swing.
And it's also tiring to be swinging them higher and higher all the time.

After 3 hours of playing, I finally managed to get them to leave for lunch.
And they picked KFC.
And both like Shrooms burger and cheese fries.
I didn't even know how to order when I was their age!
I just let my parents decide for me.

And they had so much fun waiting for me to finish my 2 piece chicken.
Hahaha.

Library-ed and sent them home.
But now, I know taking care of children can be really really tiring.
Especially if it's those hyperactive ones who's always running about, needing us to chase them.
Like them.
