On Saturday afternoon, took the opportunity to eat with my lady's parents after her mom’s blood test. Sort of an early Mother's Day lunch. I was going for volunteer work later where lunch was catered so I didn't plan on eating much. So, dim sum it would be and we just ordered from the desire of our hearts. We went to 212 Teochew Cuisine at Lorong 8 Toa Payoh which is more for something else other than dim sum.
星期六下午，在太太母亲验血后趁机一起和岳父母一起吃午餐。算提早吃母亲节一餐。 之后我将去做义工而那里也准备了我的午餐，所以我没有计划吃太多。 就去吃点心吧，随心而点。去了大巴窑八巷的李广记潮州菜馆。其实那里有其他菜肴比点心出名。
My lady looked at the menu and placed the order.
是太太看菜单点菜的。
