Birthday Wishes....

2009, February 25, Wednesday

This is a very belated update on Immanuel's birthday dinner. It was on the 17th February. We decided to do away with the cake ceremony this year as he is turning 11. 

My hubby however still, looked around for an appropriate cake, just in case, our boy still wanted a cake. We tried our best to make sure that our boys know that we love them equally, so what's done for one will be done for the other, unless requested otherwise.

So once we had agreed that there would be no cake, the next was where to eat. Immanuel, like me, likes Japanese very much. He suggested he wanted to experience Teppanyaki. And so that was dinner. We had to pick up Ivan from school first, then we headed for dinner.

We were all new to this, so kind of blur as to what we should order. We ordered two different sets first. The dishes came along, one after the other. We tasted a funny unknown dish though, but the guys liked it. Then along came the oyster. It smelt so good. As the boys and myself had not tried this before, we decided to give it a shot. Immanuel, totally was put off by it. Ivan and I found it kind of okay. On the whole it was a delightful experience.
