Wei Tzee, Wai Mon and Phobe making sandwiches for breakfast. As you can see, Wai Mon’s workstation is rather well stocked with foodstuffs. But she’ll be taking her leave of absence next week as she heads off for greener pastures to take up a new job.

Did you manage to guess the venue for my dinner treat on Father’s Day last week? The answer will be revealed at the end of this posting. As you can see from the photo here, we had Japanese hot-pot dinner or shabu-shabu. Very different from the Chinese steamed-boat.
