I’ve been going there for more than two decades. If it not ten at least 8 or 9 times. Today is for a 101.5 years old grandma.
Many employees seem to stay long. The orchards add cheer to the place – hope they’re real. Good service if not a little rushed – perhaps they’re too skilled. I always see the broken seams of their black jacket – white shirts.

The red blanket is a really nice touch: mom used to tuck kids in now kids tuck mom in, as she’s leaving on her journey. Have a good trip to eternity, and rest in peace.

Mom tucks kids in … now kids tuck mom in as she leaves on her next journey, to eternity. RIP 小时侯妈妈给孩子掖被子 现在妈妈要上路了 孩子们给妈妈盖好被子 温馨 一路好走 [玫瑰]

This isn’t the place for this but couldn’t help it – I personally think tree or ocean burial is the way to go, helping the environment, the world and our children.

Been going there, from time to time for more than a facade. Very average. Fried rice is very light. The service isn’t too good. I never understand the Chinese kitchen: they just pile the food onto your table. This time after one hour of waiting. Don’t they ever know to slow down, make the presentation a bit more appetizing? Or those are low budget … Bath room is spacious and cleaner than my last time there but …

Street parking or at garage @ 37-20 Prince Street, around the corner.

More buildings are going up, the skyline is in constant change.

This funeral is pretty heavy in term of man power. I’m a believer that tree burial, ocean burial and garden burial are better for environment and our children. The machines and workmen involved in this burial is enormous…

I pass by this tiny bakery on a side street 100s times and finally decided to go in. Glad I did. Wednesday is the autumn festival – moon cakes are part of the celebration. I used to buy from Windsor bakery on Kissena but their service is spotty.

The service here is very good and attentive. I purchased few different moon cakes – although they all taste really good but my favorite is lotus paste (filling). Taro, greet tea, red bean, … and … I don’t really like sweet.

The darker cake can stay for two weeks and the white one week at room temperate.

Happy moon festival and bon appetite.

Love the duca and 98 years old Glenstove cook top and food warmer. Will return to this South African bar.
The elk meat is tender. The house wine are good esp the white. The only complain I’ve is the bread is too sweet. Good service. The bar looks bit thin. One hour street parking free after 7pm.

Will return. A modern deco (not too crazy) but wine (shiraz Chianti and merlot) and food, service are great. The Optus is tender, eggplant is delicious, so is the bass. Street parking, free after 7pm.
