2nd MARCH 2024 ~ The original plan for this gathering was to distribute ordered/bought food items to their rightful owners. The discussion was done in the UPM TESL Class of 1993 Whatsapp Group and people even registered their names to attend. I, on the other hand, conspired with Puan Hazlina Aziz, hoping to surprise people with my appearance.
The chosen venue this time was Dolly Dimsum in NU Sentral Mall, in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. The restaurant only opened at 10:45 a.m. but we were already there much earlier, standing outside excitedly to get the best spotfor the expected 12 people for brunch. The place was quite small actually for our big group but we still managed to get the few tables combined and conquer the whole eating place.

A few members of the group brought along their husbands and daughters, and they were no strangers to everybody by now.
Some people were kind enough to bring cookies, crisps and door gifts as well.
So how did I find the food, especially the Dim Sum? To me, it was like eating Sushi, something I did for leisure. However, the company of old friends was the best thing that ever happened so the food did not really matter.

Were people surprised to see me there? The plan was a huge success, hurrah!
After almost 2 hours sitting, eating and chatting, the merry makers had to leave the restaurant, and that should be a huge relief for the waiters and waitresses. The place would return to its calm and peaceful ambience once more for sure. It was time to bid our goodbyes to each other and while a few had to make their way home, a few others continued with their coffee session right after.
