Tua Gu Gong's Birthday (29 March)

Daddy's relatives on the maternal side usually have gatherings that are related to Tua Gu Gong. Almost every year, our family will try to make ourselves available on three dates - CNY Day 1, 7th Day of CNY (Ren Ri), Tua Gu Gong's birthday (in March) .
Kieona and Mommy - aren't we fabulous?
The usual venue for Tua Gu Gong's birthday is at Asia Grand Restaurant. Food is authentic Chinese, simple but really delicious and exquisite. The usually fussy Mommy and Kieona when it comes to gastronomic tastes are always pleased with every dish they serve there. They used to be housed at Asia Hotel (which we are not fans of because of the parking space) but this year, it has moved to Odean Towers and has a larger compound. The area is more spacious and comfortable. The food, just as great.
Look at the big "Shou Tao"
Since both Kieona and Kierra are at the age where they are more independent and do not need Mommy around all the time, our family had a great time polishing up the dishes and enjoying the company of the relatives whom we may have missed over Chinese New Year. Needless to say, the girls had so much fun that we ended up being the last to leave the restaurant that night.
