Dinner with Uncle Jerry and Auntie Danielle

Last Saturday, we had dinner with Uncle Jerry and Auntie Danielle. Uncle Jerry was daddy's sister ex-boss when he was sent to Singapore to set up an office. When he came back to the States, he took good care of daddy when daddy was studying in Princeton.
This was a much awaited dinner as we could not really find a good time to meet up as Uncle Jerry travels frequently. I think the last time we met up was in last summer when Sheri was just about 7 months old. Even Auntie Danielle commented that Sheri has grown so big since the last time she met her. Time flies. I guess we do not realise it until you see how much kids have grown.
We had dinner at this Japanese restaurant called Murashi. It was daddy's colleague who recommended this place to us. The ambience is good, but more importantly, the food is excellent too. Daddy and mommy decided to go on a splurge . We had seaweed salad as the appetizer, sushi and sashimi combo as the main course followed by fried cheesecake as the dessert. The sushi and sashimi combo was the most expensive main course on the menu, but it was so fresh and succulent that it was worth every single cent that we paid. The only drawback was that mommy could not enjoy the meal to the fullest as I had to keep our little girl entertained all the time. Nowadays, she is so active that it is difficult to keep her seated in the baby seat. She is more interested in wandering around. Fortunately, the restaurants here allow us to pack the remaining food home, so mommy could continue to enjoy the sashimi when we went home.

Uncle Jerry had recently gone to Singapore for business trip, so it was nice to hear about the changes he had witnessed in Singapore during his trip. With great company and good food, it was an enjoyable evening for all of us.
