Chinese New Year Eve

The reunion dinner for Loy Family was held at Cathay Restaurant this year. We had dined there a couple of times and we found the food quite good; although more importantly, it is spacious and well-organised (aka peaceful enough for Sophie). We made reservations at 6 pm in hope that we could head for home before Sophie got all tired and too cranky.

The plan was to make sure she had good naps in the day so that she could eat her dinner at 5 pm. However, Sophie (with her own agenda in mind) was difficult to manage even before we left home. it took us an extra bit of coaxing (and threatening) to clean up her bowl. By the time we hit the road, it was already 6pm. Sigh! Even then, as we were the earlier batch of diners... things went rather smoothly (better than what we thought would be) for the rest of the evening.
