Weekend Picnic at Hong Kong Park

We were dying to take baby Marcus for a picnic. Getting outside, breathing some (fresh?) air...ideally, playing around knowing that he'd land on a soft pillowy bed of grass when he fell, and enjoyed some homemade picnic spread.

Ideally being the operative word, since there was no field of grass to sit on anywhere, we surely didn't prepare any homemade picnic food, and the air's probably polluted ;)
But at least the sky was blue, the temperature was the perfect 26C, and we got to sit outside surrounded by trees, flowers and grass field we're not allowed to sit on.

Where were we?
Hong Kong Park, the back terrace of the Tea Museum. Heheheheh. Opps, we're probably not supposed to camp there, but there's no other place to sit T_T

What did we have?
We bought some food from Great supermarket, started our meal with a refreshing salad...


Various pieces of Thai snacks...

The fish cake was especially spicy and delicious!


Shrimp cake's not bad...

The seafood paella was probably a bad choice.

Mushy rice with overcooked seafood bits...the flavors were good though.

A bowl of fruits to end our meal with...

All fresh, all good.

We let baby Marcus taste each and every piece...


He was enjoying himself.

We were stupid enough to let him "taste" a grape, he almost swallowed and choked on it. Luckily we removed the grape in time. Whew! An important lesson for us.


Baby Marcus got to try something new too, baby food made of turkey and vegetables. Yikes (shudder). As expected, he didn't like it. Oppps.

What else were we doing in the park? Check out the pictures here.
