Lawry's

5 ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ for the ambiance and the service
5 ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ for the food
$$$ 50~100
♥ Lawry's~ we went during the DineLA week. and it's $44 dollar include salad, prime rib with lobster, and a dessert. the food is prefect, the experience is perfect and the price is perfect. i got the medium rare prime rib and the meat is really soft and juicy. and can't forget their cream corn and spinach!
Dessert-strawberry cake
the meal also came with a coffee or tea at the end. the only downside is that their service is really fast and i felt a bit rushed during the dinner. =S

Royal Khyber

4 ★★★★ for the ambiance and the service
3.5 ★★★ for the food
$$ 30~50
we went try out this restaurant during the OC restaurant week. it was recommended by my friend and i was here for the mango cream brulee. i ordered the chicken Marsala and babe ordered the lamb shark. i like the lamb shark better b/c my chicken Marsala was a little salty. i love the naan bread they have. it came hot and soft right on table which is a plus! $30 meal came with an appetizer and a dessert. i got the mango cream burlee of course. the mango taste was very strong and rich. i just wish it's serve cold, ice cold. the menu is a bit pricy, but the service was really fast and nice. also, it's quite and romantic, a good spot for couples to date IMO.
we went to D&B later after dinner since we had $10 credit. we won 1500 tickets on this game~~~ lucky us~~

Prego

Free event for OC restaurant week launch party. it's location in a business center and Prego is the only resturant in that plaza. after checking in, they offer free tequila and wine at the patio. we had some drinks and chilled at their bar area. we didn't know what to expected from it so we kinda waited to see what's up next. the food started to come out after a while. i had one of each kind and all tasted great. i am not too sure if they have other thing going on latter since we left early. =S

OC Japanese Fair

this year the Japan fair is inside the OC great park. i kinda went for the hot balloon~~ we went to take the hot balloon since there's no wait in the morning. the ride only takes about 5 min. but it's a fun experience. it was a really sunny hot day and i just love the orange ballon w/ blue sky looks in the picture.
we went to the fair afterward. it's a lot better than last year, a lot more food and game vendors. also a maid cafe and a main stage for the show. i saw manservant this time... awww... so weird.. i think girls looks cuter as maid.

LA Grammy Museum

another free museum day~~ there were several that interested me, but we only got 1 day.... so i picked The Grammy Museum in LA live. i kinda wanna see the Micheal Jackson's exhibit, but it was in renovation... the museum is really cool, but too bad no picture inside... =(

F21 sample sale

it was so hot that day and we spend hours waiting in line... omg.... there goes my sunburn... it's more like a swap meet and no dressing room. i kinda went off on my own once i got in and shop until i drop. it was really cheap~~
戰利品

Happy Moon Festival

this year we had moon cake from JJ bakery~~ i remember last year was from My Store. i haven't really taste it yet since i am not a fan of moon cake.

Gift

Shoulder bag from michael kors.
it's my late late late~~~ x'mas gift + valentine's gift + B-day gift. lol~~ \^Q^/ i've been shopping nordstrom for a while and finally decided it. yeah~ new bag for work~ i was going to looks for something smaller and dressy looking. but they are out of my budget range... it's kinda simple looking, but goes along well~ this bag become kinda heavy when i put my wallet and key inside though.

Jazz Festival

we check out the Jazz fest in brea downtown. the performance was good, and there were a lot people. but the fest is kinds small. we finish it around 30 min and end up going to downtown Disney since we got nothing to do. we made just in time for the firework. there were a lot people sited outside the Disney waiting for the firework. you can't really see the lower one, but most of them were shot pretty high. the firework is much better and longer than the one we saw on July 4th.
There were a lot pumpkins decoration for Halloween. they are so cuteeeee~
