Citron Shocker

Last weekend, Mr & Mrs Kong were looking forward to a trip down nostalgia lane on Sat by having dinner at our old haunt (and pak-toh favourite) Cafe Citron on Lorong Stonor.

Imagine our surprise and horror to find huge apartment blocks surrounding what used to be a quiet, leafy bungalow - with Indonesian construction workers actually living in the bungalow!

Cafe Citron used to be a place where you felt you were in the middle of a park whilst having a gourmet dinner in the city centre. It was a sanctuary in the middle of bustling KL. Sad to say, leafy sanctuaries are no match for 'development'.

Still reeling from the shock, Mr & Mrs Kong then went for the backup option - another old faithful, Genki Sushi at KLCC. Only to find it closed! Being replaced by Sakae Sushi! Ptoooei!

I guess its true - some things are better left as memories. You just can't go back. Sigh.

At least The Rendevous Steak House is still hanging on...

Great Weekend

Nothing much to report except an expanding belly.

Great weekend all in all: managed to finally get a new shoe rack for our vast collection of shoes.... relatively speaking :). Looking forward to the next already.

Norwegian National Day Celebrations

where Mr Kong made some pizza...

and had some family over

... as it just happened to be Mr Kong's birthday too :).

Back to Life

Mrs Kong surrounded by little ones!

And yes we are.

After a hiatus of nearly 6 months, Mr and Mrs Kong are back living life. Mr Kong's knee is better (though still not back to normal after knee surgery) and Mrs Kong is finally able to stay awake during dinner!! We finally had Mr Kong's good friends come over to visit us tonight, and share a dinner of roast chicken and potatoes (and salad) with us. Mr Kong whipped up two delicious roast chickens and lovely buttery and herby potatoes.

Yes we also have had nice news recently, and have been looking forward to the month of August when our bun in the oven is due. Well, looking forward until tonight.

Observing our friends and their mini families tonight, we have realised that in only three months, our life as a twosome will change drastically. Smelly nappies, cries, and a lifetime of child training will probably be the norm. We will cease to be a twosome and perhaps with the finality in this change, three months now seems like too short a time now.

Well, as the Chinese say, cross the bridge when you come to it and the road will straighten out then.
