Hubs still had the Oriental Group vouchers that he received when he applied for membership at the Oriental Cuisine Club late last year. He was too busy with work back then and didn't have the time to bring us to dine at participating restaurants. Then came the sodding virus that kept us grounded and catapulted our lives upside down for many months. Now that we are all allowed to go out together as a family for a meal, hubs quickly utilized the vouchers before they turned void.
Our lunch today was at Oriental Treasure @ The Sphere, Bangsar South. The last time we had dim sum together as a family was half a year ago. The girls used to sulk whenever their dad said that he's bringing them for dim sum as we were having dim sum pretty frequently back in the good days, until the girls got disinterested. Now that they've been grounded for so long, any meal in a fancy air-conditioned restaurant seems to be a luxury to them. Sometimes all we need is a misevent in our lives to press the reset button in us; to make us appreciate the things that we are blessed with instead of taking things for granted.
We also ordered two trays of char siew pau for takeaway. And the bill was only slightly more than RM100 for all these after utilizing the vouchers. What a great deal!
New norm at restaurants:
Face masks are only allowed to be removed when we eat or drink, else everyone has to mask up 😷
