This afternoon, the Ang family treated me to a lunch at Paddington's House of Pancakes, Queensbay Mall. I taught the triplets H (Electrical Engineering, University of Melbourne), G (Medicine, Dublin) and Y (Mechanical Engineering, University of Melbourne) years ago.

Their mom, Anne, is another lovely woman who is not only patient, but kind, generous and very involved in Buddhist charity work. It has not been easy for Anne to bring up the three boys, especially when they were babies but it has been worth the investment of love for her as all the three boys are doing very well in their studies at tertiary level. Indeed, I am very proud of them and am greatly blessed to know Anne, from the days when I was teaching in the international school circuit.

I love the pannekoek(pancakes in Dutch) that is available at Paddington's House of Pancakes and today, we had a lovely array of pannekoek, blintz and other lovely stuff as well. For starters, we had original nachos which came with three types of dips - guacamole, sour cream and hummus.
I had Mexican blintz (next pic). Very well marinaded beef, not too oily and the pancake was just the right thickness.
Anne had pannekoek Honolulu with pineapples and diced chicken.
H had Pannekoek Tokyo...
Y had Buckwheat Pannekoek Brussel Sprouts...
Their cousin Man Heng who lives in Melbourne and is a first year student (commerce) in University of Melbourne enjoyed the Full Monty.

Thanks for the lunch treat and fellowship. Most of all, thank for the friendship, love and respect you all have shown me over the years....I am indeed blessed to know you all...God bless you all and bon voyage as you all leave next week for Melbourne!
