Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration @ JB City Sq

 

Today we went across the causeway to JB City Sq to meet Doraemon.
The crossing of custom was very smooth, but spend around 30 mins in the q for the bus to cross over the causeway. Today the CW buses was the last one to come and 3 CW buses all come together.

Over all the whole experience at both SG and MY custom was very smooth. Lucky us!
It was years that hubby last visited the woodland custom, he was like a little boy, keep asking me about things he see when we are on our way.

City Sq is a building beside the MY custom, and we just need to walk across the overhead bridge from the MY custom building. City Sq building has been under renovation for sometime, when we visit there today many of the places is still cover with dust and many shops are still under renovation. But the first floor open space is nicely done up and is having event there.  The reason we are here is for the event, so the dust and mess at the other floors don't bother us much.

The event 'Doraemon 100 Years Before Birth Mid Autumn Festival Celebration'.
There are area for Doraemon merchandise and many stores selling Moon Cake for Mid Autumn Festival.
Moon Cake are traditionally eaten during the Mid Autumn Festival. Chinese will buy Moon Cake as gift for friends and family. Traditionally family will gather around under the moon on Mid Autumn to eat Moon Cake and drink Chinese Tea, and the children will carry brighly lit Lanterns.

We had our lunch at Kim Gary HK cafe.

I had Iced Ying Yang and Mushroom Rice with Beef, he had Coke, Vegetable Dumpling Soup and Tomato Spaghetti and Beef.

Our Food

I love their Mushroom Rice, the rice was cooked with chinese mushroom, the mushroom is very smooth and fragrant. And the corn that come with it, is fresh and juicy. The beef was just cooked lightly and is still tender. My mouth is fill with the fragrant of the mushroom and rice. Yum!


After our meals we walk around the first floor and found many Doraemon,

Overall it was a fun but tiring trip. Happy to see so many Doraemon's merchandise that we don't find during our HK trip.  Hope the renovation in the building will be over soon, and we can continue to enjoy our shopping there.

Hubby is so tired and went to bed right after we reached home.
