First in the group - Mrs Lee

Finally, the first one to get married in the gang is Miss Neow Ti Hooi!

Last weekend we all made a special trip to Melaka for Ti Hooi's wedding. And it seems that age is catching up... After the weekend of driving to and fro Melaka, and hosting friends for 4 days, I was so so so exhausted... Stop! That's depressing! Let's talk about the fun stuffs shall we? Hehhehe.

The Wedding

We crashed the morning "pick-the-bride" session! To our disappointment, Mrs Lee did not expect us to be at her wedding during the morning where she was supposed to be wedded off to Mr Lee. To her surprise, we told her we were going to be there, the night before. Hahahha. At least we gave her a pretty late warning, if not, she will be shocked, not surprised. hahaha.

I'm sorry I don't have most of the group photos...

Let you in a secret, we are actually second cousins. Hehhe. 

Details of my dress, up close.

Getting ready for night reception. :))

OOTD:

Pink dress - Chic-in-Pink (find them on Facebook!)

Black ribbon - to give a waist line to my dress

Nude pumps - Aldo

Wah the dramatic light effect..

Again, group pics are not with me and Doris's phone crashed so we can't get the group pics yet...

Random selca shots. The term selca I learned from Chuckei's blog. ahha.

Eh, can you see my curls?? :P

When I get my hands on the group pics, will upload!! I also wanna remember how we all looked like at this wedding haha.

The Food

Gosh we ate so much I could not believe! Non-stop eating! Luckily we could burn some fat by walking and shopping on Jonker Street. I forgot to take pics of famous Nadeje mille crepe cakes!! Had them 3 years back and missed them ever since so this is my chance!! Hahaha. But sorry, no photos. :((

Jonker88 cendol.

Can you count the number of hands attacking the poor cendols??

We ordered ordinary/default cendol, mango cendol, sago cendol and sago gula melaka.

I liked sago cendol the most!

Then, off to the shop beside Jonker88 for some Nyonya Asam Laksa, different from Penang Asam Laksa but quite nice.

A bit spicy though, so we ended up with few glasses of iced lemon tea. haha.

Next day, the eating spree continues!!

Amoy Nyonya pancakes, just outside famous confectionery store, San Shu Gong. (pic below)

Great for breakfast hehehe.

This is where I bought their famous pineapple tarts home.

Mum loves pineapple tarts and she commented San Shu Gong pineapple tarts are very nice!

Then, as brunch (wth), we had Muar Chee.

Chicken rice balls for lunch!

Note that breakfast, brunch and lunch all happened in the same hour!! Hahahha.

Don't know the name of this shop but it's opposite San Shu Gong.

Coconut jelly as dessert.

And this Ting Ting candy as fun treat. Hehhe.

The name Ting Ting is apparently derived from the sound of the hammer (I don't know what I should call the tool, haha) knocking the candy.

So much effort goes into making this small pack of candy.

There are so much to eat on just one street! 

The Crafts

I just wanna highlight some cute crafts I saw along the street.

Pop-up cards.

Mini wire sculptures.

Classic hand-painted porcelain.

This is so classic we don't even use them anymore!

But maybe, time to bring back the classics!

Decorative bulbs.. Maybe one day. :D

The After-Party

When we came back to KL, Ti Hooi (now Mrs Lee) invited us for a lunch get-together because she misses us too much! ahahhaa. And we went to Pavillion.

And we wanted to verify that mille crepe cakes in Melaka are still the best.

Verdict: Hokkaido Mille Crepe Cake 0 - 1 Nadeje Mille Crepe Cake

Ginza Cafe for lunch.

Don't ask me why September set lunch menu can still be used in the month of October. Lol.

Tried the curry udon for myself! :)

And when I came home that weekend, I got a surprise gift waiting for me!!

Aldo clutch from Bangkok.

Years ago, Mr Choe got me a Coach wristlet, also in the same type of champagne gold.

He felt that it's probably too small for me now, what with the invention of huge smartphones. haha.

So this is the substitute for that, in case I need a bigger champagne gold clutch. Hihi.

Phew!! Long post! That's because I had a longggg weekend! ;))
