Chinese New Year Dinner

it was the 2nd day of the CNY. i had a memorable 'company/ family' dinner in Batu Pahat.

[situation]
after my big family (+ relatives) 'LO SHANG'... the serving / not to mention EATING 'halted'

it was as if the dish (raw salmon )was the appetizer, main course and desert.

this was a pretty serious matter. its the YU family we're talking about!

my aunty irene (the person who ordered the food) complained abit...

nothing happened. - no food for another 45 mins -
a rude waitress came to my table and asked for the menu (apparently there was a mix up for my table's menu and nothing was furthered prepared)...

aunt Irene then asked for the manager... (not accepting any appologies only trying to hurry the food and to please my big hungry family)

5 more minutes of wait...
and then>>>
Aunty Judy stood up (she's the fiercest woman i know that takes no crap from anyone)

well, my cousins (ALL of them) were pretty excited of what the workers were gonna get. if any workers get sacked after the affects of my aunt judy's complain , it will not be surprising.
Our hunger spared no mercy to any of their sour face/ rude looking workers.

after an hour of waiting... the food finally came...
uncle Robert (a man with quite a sense of humour) asked the whole family to give the workers a big clap. so we did. the next table supported us with their claps too. it was really 'entertaining!'..

some poor waiter fall a few plates after a minute or so and got a round of applause by another table in the restaurant. -how influencial my family is- lol

overall. the dinner was good. a memorable one at least.
