Last Saturday, we had a family gathering at Unc’s place. To celebrate his birthday and also Father’s Day. Bought a cheesecake from Taka for him. Teehee..
Aunty prepared lotsa food for steamboat. And I love the meaty bloody lamb and big prawns the most. *yum yum*
For desserts, I made Vanilla Ice-cream on Doraemon Pancake topped with Hershey Chocolate Syrup. Earlier during the day, Gladys made the Doraemon pancakes using her new Doraemon shaped pan. The making of pancake, will and hopefully be in another post (planning to hog her kitchen with her one day to make pancake).

Dys, the pancake is delicious. The pancake mix from Ta Kiong can buy more. Teehee..
We started wining (wine drinking) when we started dinnering. Some aunties didn’t make it for the dinner due to hashing. All in all only 5 drinkers that night and we managed to open up 7 bottles of wine. Syabas!
7 bottles of wine
Among the 7 bottles, I love the Yellow Tail the most! Chateau Paloumey second (needs breathing but still a good wine I like). The other uncle brought the Yellow Tail and Penfold.
My current favourite wine
It does not need breathing upon opening as it is a matured wine. It is smooth and easy to drink. Sweet end and not sourish. Definitely looking forward to more of this in future.
Yellow Tail - The Reserve
Only Wine & Liquor (Jalan Tun Jugah) sells it. There are other Yellow Tail wine, categorized in different color labels. The differences are the types of grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz and blend of grapes.
Smooth drinking wine
Unc is spoiling us with good wines. Unc even said that I’ve improved. 
As I could tell how each wine differs. Weee..
After each type of wine, the glass needs to be wash and dried before pouring the new wine. Then, you can fully taste the new wine and differentiate from the previous one.
How wonderful it is if there’s wine tasting course in Kuching. From there, I could learn more and get to taste all types of wine.
The aftermath = 7 + 1 = 8
In three months time, we’re opening a new bottle of whisky:
Japanese Whisky
to celebrate an aunt’s birthday, we’re opening this in September. Teehee.. Can’t wait~
You guys really can drink. I always missed the Yellow Tail. Next time sure will grab it and try it. Usually go for Brown Brothers.
