Prophet Muhammad’s Birthday

When we live in a hot and humid place like KK, public holiday is usually spent in an air-conditioned place. Having migraine also prevents me from venturing outdoor esp. to the islands just to relax. The journey seems to be too arduous for me.

Unlike in the Down Under, we can go to the beach to have bbq and then play games like unisex football or exercise such as playing tennis or squash before sitting down to have a meal together to catch up with one another.

Sophia booked a table for the two of us at Soul Out, Grand Borneo Hotel, 1 Borneo for buffet hi-tea. This time her youngest brother also joined us.

Sophia came to fetch me so that Jeff can use the car to go out if he chose to. Before she parked her car at the carpark, I alighted from the car to go to buy movie tickets. After our meal, we wanted to watch a movie.

I have not heard any previews on the current movies so I have no idea which one is worth watching. There were not many people queuing up to buy movie tickets and therefore I waited for Sophia and her brother to arrive.

We had the choice of ‘The Book of Eli’ starring Denzel Washington or ‘Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief’. Both of these were showing at 2.20 or 2.30p.m. In the end we bought tickets for the latter movie.

We arrived at Soul Out and I like their white colour scheme, with the furnitures and walls all painted in white.

Sophia’s brother recognised one of the cooks, whom he said frequented the coffee shop where he sells budget noodles for breakfast.

At first we sat at a table next to the window. We could not feel the air-conditoner at all. We felt stuffy. After two rounds of food, we changed to another table where we can feel at least some air from the air-conditioner.

Though this restaurant does not serve as many selections of food as compared to say Cafe Promenade, Promenade Hotel, at least there were some dishes which I like. But Cafe Promenade charges almost double of Soul Out. They are the beef which was so tender and the lamb curry.

By the time we were leaving, there were more people in the restaurant.

Sophia and I went for the movie but her brother did not join us.

Normally I would feel slightly cold inside the cinema but today I do not feel cold at all. There were a lot of people watching the movie as well.

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie.

On the way home from 1 Borneo, Sophia and I saw this scene before us - a combination of smoke from a blazing factory and dark clouds.

I only had sweet and sour crabs for dinner.
