Post 5 ! A Special Moment You Enjoyed With Your Family..

Friends are close, however family is closer to you. Family is the closest thing you have, without your family, there will be no you. Getting along with your family is important as they will be the first to help you whenever you are in need, thus spending time with your family is important. During the time you spend with them, you can share your problems with them and they would try to help solve your problems. Every moment spent with my family is unique but when it was my uncle's birthday, the time spent is truly special.


My uncle and his family including my cousin migrated to Beijing(China) when i was 6. They came back once every year for Chinese New Year, however it was the December holidays when he came back. My grandmother undergo an operation which involves the nerves thus it was a huge operation. My uncle came back to accompany my grandmother and at the same time to visit his friends and relatives. Coincidently, My uncle's birthday was on one of the day he came back. My family decided to bring him for dinner after visiting my grandmother at the hospital.


We went to this traditional Japanese restaurant at a hotel, we got to sit on the floor with only a pillow underneath our legs. The food there was amazing, nothing as delicious as this in the world. The raw fish was so tender and juicy that with one bite, the cold juice filled my mouth. The Tempura (deep fried prawns) was so crispy and the prawns were fresh! My favorite would be the burnt salmon belly. The belly of the salmon is the best! The salmon belly would be burnt to an extent that the outer layer turns slightly black, when it is in your mouth, its crispy and tender at the same time, how amazing is that ?! The soup served there has an extremely fragrant that can be smelled miles away! The food there is just incredible!! When we were eating, we found out more about my uncle. We realized that he stopped work for a period of time to rest and that my cousin who is in england studying fashion is not coming back for Chinese New Year. My aunt was moved to Hong Kong for a period of time as she found a job there. He also got to know my family's situation better and he also shared some of his experience which were quite humorous. My uncle is a very funny and serious person, spending time with him is fun and educational. Finally, the final and most important part of a birthday, the birthday cake. It was actually made of sushi !! The chef specially made a sushi cake for my uncle, although it was small, it was creative and delicious !!


I really enjoyed my time spent with my uncle and my family, it was a really special time for me, we could discuss about our future plans and also think back about the past, how we have changed. Hopefully, I would be able to spend more time with my family in the near future and always stay in touch with them. I LOVE MY FAMILY !
