Mama 96th Bday!

Wow, it's mama's (Sean & Trishh's great grandmother)
96th birthday......


She's approaching a century!


As usual (for the past 5 years), we celebrated her birthday at Copthorne King's Hotel.

Mama has invited at least 50 guests and relatives for her birthday celebration. We also had the honour of the Bishop from St Andrew's Cathedral Church to give her his blessing.

Mama has a total of 18 brothers and sisters. But 9 siblings went missing during the war and up till today only 2 younger brothers and 3 sisters are still around (all in their late 80s). Mama is number 9th in the family and the oldest now. She is a Peranakan and has been living in Katong almost all her life. She lost her husband during the war, has 3 children and remarried a doctor (passsed away in the 80s)




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




The King's Hotel serves authentic and hearty Penang cuisine like:
- Char Kway Teow
- Penang Laksa
- Prawn Mee Soup
- Popiah
- Pig’s Stomach Soup
- Braised Pork with Yam
- Curry King Prawn
- Inchee Kabin
- Fish Curry
- Braised Pork Knuckle with Soya Sauce
- Desserts like Nonya Kueh, Chendol, Homemade Soya Bean Curd, etc.


Not very impressed with the buffet spread as well as the taste of the food.
