Sat B-day Chinese

Like we do every year, we had a get-together lunch for Sat's b-day... at a Chinese restaurant. This time it was Hop Woo in WLA. Duck time!

I finally got to meet Sasami's b/f. Nice guy.

Sof showed us a photo of Ben wearing a gakuran.
No, actually it's a high-collared Chinese shirt. But b/c it's black, it just looks like a Japanese school boy uniform. *snicker*

Our table was mostly vegetarian. And it wasn't b/c Steph was at our table either... just happened that way.

And the other table (mostly boys) was very meaty. Poor Panda was wishing she was at our table... which would have made sense, b/c there's no point in having two Cantonese speakers at one table and none at the other.

Most of the group headed over to Yuu Yuu's for happy hour karaoke, while me & じゅるる went home b/c we had brought Popo along. Plus Vu was gonna help me fix my virus infected Vaio. Which is now fixed. Horray!

Post-karaoke, half the group came over to have b-day cake. TJ tiramisu cake & opera cake. I had the opera cake, which was yum. Sat figured Ards would like the tiramisu cake, so saved one piece for her. She'll come by on Monday to eat it. And pick up Japan omiyage from Steph.

We should have ordered pizza or something cuz everyone stayed late... so I quickly made takoyaki & cheese-yaki. But I'm sure everyone was still hungry afterwards. Hopefully they all had late night munchies.
