Karen & Me

One fine day at work, I saw Karen online and we catch up for a while via MSN. It was so funny because I asked where is she and she said she's at Hong Kong International Airport waiting to catch a flight back to KL!

Almost immediately, we set a date for a meet-up.

So, we went to Alexis because she said she misses the cakes there but had to watch her weight.

I went, "Me too!! Let's share a piece of cake!"



So we ordered...


A pizza with some rocket leaves on top because the funny girl was curious about that bunch of leaves.

The pizza topping wasn't too much to handle. Very fresh, thin pastry. It tasted sooooo good.


I suggested a bowl of soup to go with the pizza. Both of us agreed on Mushroom soup but they don't serve it that day. Thus, we settled for the Soup of The Day: Onion Soup.

Not bad!

Both of us were laughing about this big fat bottle of Tabasco.

OK it doesn't look fat in the picture but in reality, it looks so much fatter than the normal ones at the other restaurants.

We were practically laughing all night long. She related her stories about work in Hong Kong & Taiwan. The beautiful city and how Hong Kong never sleeps... that it is so alive. Talked about my students, work and the boyfriend. We laughed about everything under the sun (light bulb above us). :)

After a while, she said "shall we have Pavlova?"

Quickly, we placed our order and you should have seen the glee on her face when she saw the berry toppings!

For one moment, we stopped talking. Just focusing on that piece of Pavolva in front of us. Indulging every single bit of light cream. The berries and crust? To die for.

She had to work. So, we bid goodbye. And not to forget a picture of both of us.

I look like I haven't slept in 10 years. My God I look terrible. I applied the Lomo mode on to the picture and yet, I still look so tired.

Oh, we hugged and it was certainly not our last good bye.

XOXO,
