The Sire & QEII

My partner at work Farissa is leaving Intel to relocate to KL so the bunch of us decided to throw her a farewell party and at the same time, find excuse for some partying ourselves on Nov 15th. Or should I say we were actually more itchy for the partying piece which is why we suggested a Saturday instead of a working day :) And we are all so game for partying that we gave the party a BLACK theme.... everyone must come dressed in black or risked being penalized!


We headed to a lovely joint at the Kings Street called The Sire Museum Restaurant. The place used to be the home of Yeap Chor Ee and the interior is adorned with exquisite furniture pieces and bygone pictures of the Yeap's family. We arrived shortly before 7pm in all our oh so sexy BLACK attires and proceeded to order food even before some of our friends arrive, I guess it's because we are all very hungry!! Haha

I took the risk to order the Black Angus Ribeye Steak (airflown) which cost a whopping RM105 per plate!!!! Sadly, it was not up to my expectation... the steak had a buttery taste to it and nothing more.. that's all I've got for 100 plus. Tahira actually recommended that I check out The Grill at Rasa Sayang if I am one for steaks, and she asked that I go for the Queens Cut. Psstt... I am actually dropping hints to Joe that I'd like to check out The Grill for our coming ROM Anniversary this December. Not sure whether this bloke husband of mine is sensitive enough to pick up the hints.... nvm....... will try harder :)




We finished dinner at around 9pm plus and a bunch of us, the party kakis decided to head to QEII for drinks and chill out! Naomi, Farissa and Guat Choo decided not to join us though.... as they've got their own plans for the night already....


So off we went to QEII. The place was kinda empty when we arrived, perhaps it's because the night is still young...... and the crowd have yet to trickle in. We chosed a nice spot and settled ourselves..... we ordered drinks, mainly alcoholic but Joe and I decided to go against norm and we ordered English Tea and Mint Tea instead at a place like QEII... hahahaaaaa.... I know we are like uncle and aunty.... maybe we are.... cos we are both in our 30s already!


Mat was the darling of the night as he ordered Pizza for all of us...... both variants are kinda special... one spicy pizza and the other comes with Pear fruit..... unique! Even though everybody claimed to be so full with dinner, we all took a bite to the pizza as they are so tempting with the gooeey cheezy cheese!!!




We left the place before midnight as we needed to cross the bridge before it closes for the Penang Bridge Run at 2am. It was truly an amazing night for me and Joe as we had not been to a clubbing scene for some time. Nice............
