1st Day of Harvest Festival 2008 Part 8

Besides Adam, mum had five other guests from Sandakan staying with us during the long weekend.

Mum cooked the following for all our guests that night.

1. Prawns fried in wonton skin
2. Soya sauce chicken wings
3. Fried ‘lai mang’ fish
4. Veges
5. Steamed pork spareribs
6. Steamed chicken with chinese mushrooms and black fungus



I did not eat very much because I told Adam that I would be bringing him for supper of baked crabs that night but he had forgotten all about it as he savoured mum’s mouth-watering cooking.

We left home at 10p.m. and I showed Adam the way to the baked crabs restaurant in Kepayan. But when we arrived there, he said that he was not hungry yet.

So off we went to the city. There were so many cars along Tun Fuad Stephens Road. Adam wanted to park on the road pavement outside the Waterfront because the carpark inside the Waterfront was full but I advised him against it. He found a parking bay behind Api-Api Centre and we walked over to the Waterfront on that cool night.

The music blaring out from the PA system was so loud in the Waterfront that we had a hard time in deciding where we should sit down to order our drinks and chit-chat.

The music near the Port View Restaurant was not as bad so we sat and ordered drinks from the Oregano Café. We went home before 1a.m.
