I haven’t eaten Guai Lin Gou for a long, long time now – i remember eating them at least once or twice a month when i was home.  Why? It is said that these herbal jelly has chinese herbs and medicine in it – and it is said to cleanse your body of toxin and relieve heatiness in your body.  Meaning good stuff all the way for your body – those got lots of acne – they said that this will help.  Oh !  people with no sense of humor can try this too – hahahahha!!  i didn’t say that – it’s the Asian Grocery Store boss who told me so – hahahah!!

The Herbal Jelly is black in color and it had a strong chinese medicine smell as expected but it was really good and I had offered some to PB – but he wouldn’t eat it.  But i do like it – and will buy some more of it – the next time I’m up in the city.

This is how it looks – you pour a little bit of syrup to go with it – to make it less bitter – but i rarely used it – it isn’t that bitter.

Yes ! i’m late again – Father’s Day was like a month ago – but what can you do when you are so busy with work and eating out so often .. muahahhaah!!  Not being a slacker but really busy and too much entertainment of late.  Anyhow, we went to Jungle Jims – our favorite place to eat in town.  Not only is the food of huge portion – the service is friendly – that’s the reason why we tip good too.

And more importantly – Jungle Jims is kids friendly – they have drawing and crayons for Chloe to entertain herself with – she just lovessss during and do the puzzles.

2 can eat for $11.95 at Jungle Jims therefore – it will never break the your bank account.  As usual PB ordered his onion rings and we settled for fish and chips for father and daughter – while i had something else.

This is all that Chloe would eat – therefore we only order 2 meals and a side dish.

Look at all big the portion of fish and chips is – a portion of it had already been scooped out for Chloe.  I can’t finish all that – neither could PB.

I had an onion soup with a BLT sandwich – i haven’t had this for a long time and this time the soup was perfect.  The wholewheat bread was also fresh.

So the pleasant surprise like i said on the title – we were minding our own business and Chloe was drawing when a nice older couple came to my side and said this to me.  ” I have to tell you something”  I was very surprised lah – afterall – the older couple was a complete stranger right.  And this was what she said  :”  you have a very beautiful and well-behaved daughter” Awwww.. !! so sweet right.  You see – Chloe unlike other kids would never run around any restaurant or be rowdy in public.  The reason why? is because we’ve always told her.. that other stores ain’t her store – so she cannot behave that way.  So from very young – toddler – she knows it – and anything she fuss up – out she goes back home or the store.  So whenever we are in the restaurant – she sits put – till we are ready to go.

Yes..! i tell PB we have to count our blessings and I too need to count mine – because PB takes care of Chloe whenever needed – whether is going to pee – for many years ( he would be the one to bring her) because of my poor health – i can’t bend over and help chloe.  Like this picture – Chloe had something on her face – PB took care of it immediately – i didn’t have to do nothing.

Ice cream sundae for a treat for Chloe but she never finishes it and PB gotta eat half of it for her – but the twinkles she eats them all.

Chloe and Teddy getting ready to say good bye to the gold fishes.
