潮軒 Garlic Onion

潮軒 Garlic Onion
Date: March 28, 2009 (Saturday)
Address: 10755 Leslie Street, Suite 203, Richmond Hill (Elgin Mills & Leslie)
Phone: (905) 918-1112

we had lunch at this restaurant once on a Sunday a while ago & it was very crowded.. this Saturday seemed ok.. but it was weird as they still didn't have enough spoons (pls see below)!!

蜜味蒜香雞翼 Honey garlic chicken wings (6 pcs) $5.99
..it's good as they had both garlic AND honey flavor..
紫菜雙丸麵 Fish Ball, beef meat ball & seaweed noodle in soup $5.99
..they first gave LG a small metallic spoon for his noodle/soup.. LG asked if he could have a bigger spoon so he could have some soup.. the waitress said that they were too busy & didn't have time to wash the spoons! she then rushed to the kitchen & washed a spoon for LG!!

anyway, the price seemed ok here (價錢合理).. the food was so-so (same as the other not-so-bad 港式餐廳).. i tried their 黑椒雞扒飯 last time & i think it's pretty good..

Hachitarou Japan Cuisine 八太郎和風料理
Date: March 13, 2009 (Friday)
Address: 8515 McCowan Road, Unit #9, Markham (Hwy 7 & McCowan)
Phone: (905) 472-1210

suddenly wanna have AYCE Jap food.. the closest one with comparatively good AYCE food is 八太郎.. but we had a not-so-great experience this time..

(right) 燒三文魚腩 Grilled Salmon

(left) 多春魚 Deep Fried Smelts w/ roe
(right) 雞心肝 Chicken Liver Skewered

(left) 黃金蝦 Golden Shrimp Tempura


the food were still ok.. & here's the not-so-great part:

we were first asked to be seated at the table right outside of the washroom.. when we were seated, we saw a lot of mosquitoes (those tiny ones) on the table (& flying around the soy sauce).. we asked if we could move to another table, but the waitress said there was no table available at the moment.. & then she tried to use the table to wipe them off.. but the mosquitoes flew away when she tried to wipe, & then flew back right after.. i couldn't stand having mosquitoes flying around my food during my dinner!!! when we were about to leave, the waiter found us another table.. well.. i kinda ruined my mood..

賴床

最初我是被歌名所吸引.. 賴床..那豈不是在說我嗎? 哈哈!

here's quote from 藍奕邦's blog..
「這陣子那麼冷, 我跟大家, 每朝都會賴床吧.
但賴床不光是代表累或冷, 對我來說, 再深一層的意義.
自己的床, 自己的被窩, 好像是最安全, 最私人, 最沒有別人侵犯的空間.
我們每朝賴床, 不願起身, 是否只因為累呢?
是不是
我們其實不太想回到學校, 公司去面對一些自己不喜歡的人?
我們覺得自己不能應付跟前的種種?
我們怕洗臉刷牙時, 在鏡子看見連自己都看不上眼的面容?
我們怕了現實?
我們怕了自己? 」

這是一首很有意思的歌.. 我十分有同感!

越睡越是累 越累就越睡 雜務萬千堆 不知怎應對
攬枕攬緊些 窗簾別拉開 恬靜世界裡 我自閉隱居

無辦法 來面對 門外世界變幻與興衰
矇著眼 沉下去 寧願再蘊藏被窩之中找允許
懶得起身落床去 也許於這昏暗角落裡面 找得出興趣

如果需要意志才能下床 對鏡梳洗 看多看也會怯慌
寧願打個噴嚏然後賴床 無謂面對著世人的兇悍
誰講早我說晚安 關進這暗房 躲進被竇更加心安
如若鬧鐘一再搖晃
仍舊繼續來賴床 對現實投降

乏力又累贅 越活越受罪 就活在被竇 賣力地躊躇
想起身邊的 鬧劇或怨對 每日拚命追 心力都交瘁

無力去 來面對 門外世界變幻與興衰
情願再 沉下去 寧願再蘊藏被窩之中找允許
懶得起身落床去 無奈又怕有日筋骨衰退 我也會心虛

如果需要意志才能下床 對鏡梳洗 看多看也會怯慌
寧願打個噴嚏然後賴床 無謂面對著世人的兇悍
誰講早我說晚安 關進這暗房 躲進被竇更加心安
如若鬧鐘一再搖晃
仍舊繼續來賴床 對現實投降

躺於這和暖睡床 (叫世人把我遺忘)
不想對人再奢望 (漸忘掉屋外盛況)
被窩之中躺呀躺 究竟怎麼不妥當
懶得起身觀看 今天境況 知道更不安

何必虛耗意志爬落睡床 戴起盔甲去抵抗俗世眼光
寧願打個噴嚏然後賴床 無謂面對著世人的兇悍
誰講早我說晚安 關進這暗房 躲進被竇更加心安
門縫在滲一線晨光
仍舊繼續來賴床 將現實埋葬

誰問我 誰勸我
我並沒有不快樂
日子沒有不同
在你 離開以後
我沒哭 我沒說
偽裝自己的沉默
回憶是一段影片
我獨自
看完又從頭

我愛你很多 多到不怕寂寞
多到忘記了時間
緣走了 卻沒帶走我
我想你很多 所以才選擇守候
我們堅持過 到現在
我還是記得 愛你很多

誰問我 誰勸我
我並沒有不快樂
自己好好地過
也對得起你了
那一刻 兩個人
永遠不會再來過
愛情是一條虛線
我們在不同的段落

我愛你很多 多到不怕寂寞
多到忘記了時間
緣走了 卻沒帶走我
我想你很多 所以才選擇守候
我們堅持過 到現在
我還是記得
愛你很多

我愛你很多 多到不怕寂寞
多到忘記了時間
緣走了 卻沒帶走我
我想你很多 這些話始終沒說
如能再問候 請給我
一切的笑容
我愛你很多
