1st Proper Chinese dinner in New Zealand – Day 9

Today we have booked the ticket back to Malaysia on this coming Friday, ticket was booked but tomorrow only confirms issue the ticket. A very different feeling after we know we are going back soon.

Today do not need to work so late because one of the supervisors here wants to buy us dinner as a farewell to us. She is Chinese but do not know how to speak Chinese. She sent us a web site link about the Chinese restaurant that she is going to bring us there. The restaurant name call Grand Park.

7pm dinner time, she booked a table for 3 at 7pm, so we start our journey from office at 6:30pm. The restaurant is in the other island which needs to cross the bridge.

Destination reached. The restaurant is the most proper and similar to the Chinese restaurant in Malaysia. When we step into the restaurant, we can see a lot of fishes and lobsters inside the aquarium. All the waiter and waitress speak mandarin. Each of us order 1 meal but we ended up 4 meals, the supervisor said 3 meals is not enough order 1 more. We ordered pork, vegetables, sweet and sour fish slices and chicken cube in chilli flavour.

We have Chinese tea and chatting will waiting for the foods to be served. Mainly talk about work, what she should do with our absence. Dinner served in 15 minutes time after we ordered. I think is because other table’s meal has been served and we are the last order for them. Currently only 7 tables seated with peoples, inclusive we.

Hmmm….. long time never eat the pork, sweet and sour fish. I had a lot of it, rice added as well. The portion was big and we should order 3 instead of 4. We can’t finish all the meals. What we finished was pork and fish. The way they cook the chicken is totally different from our style, maybe their style is from Hong Kong. Lot of nuts inside the chicken, bite until my teeth also tired. But we still enjoy the meal, at least is like eating at home.

After dinner we did not go anywhere, she straight sent us back to the hotel. After such a full dinner, really tire, better sleep after take bath. That’s why I think I am putting on weights, sleep after meal. But one thing, cold weather will make people gain weight easily!
