Yesterday- May 8,2008-one of my best friends in Hong Kong, Ben, had his birthday! He turned 24. So, the "family" went out to the Peak to celebrate it. We had made a reservation at Bubba Gumps for six people (the "family": Ben, Nikki, Laura, Rosie and me, plus Nikki's sister Natalie). Bubba Gumps is a very cool restaurant at the Peak Tower with an amazing view to HK and excellent food as well as cocktails! Also, the restaurant's theme is based on the film Forest Gump and everything there reminds you of it.
As I said the food was excellent but the most impressive part of the menu was the cocktails. We ordered the large "Tropical Breezer" which is a mix of malibu, lime, pineapple and something else that i can't recall now. It was perfect and that's why we all had a second round!
After our dinner and Bubba Gumps' special Birthday song (This is your Birthday song, this is your birthday song, it is not very long, happy birthday!) we went to the last level of the Peak Tower to check the view to HK from up there. The weather though up there was a bit misty so we were not be able to enjoy the view that much but still it was cool.
That's it...We left the Peak at around 11:15pm in order to go back home and start packing our stuff for tonight's trip to Taiwan!
to be continued....
PS: Happy Birthday Benjo!
Greeko!
