eating in frankfurt

introducing: automatic toilet seat cleaner. it cleans automatically after it flushes.

been slightly lazy to blog...i wish to say i was away somewhere sight-seeing, but sadly, that is not the case.

however, i did do some loafing in frankfurt for a few hours yesterday. as if frankfurt is that near hor...more than 1 hour away actually.

the plan to leave at 1p.m. did not materialise and we only really started the journey to frankfurt at about 4 plus from aunt friend's place in limburg. we went to their restaurant first and u know them lah...asked us to eat there lah, then they sat down and chatted lah. sigh...by the time we left limburg, it was already starting to get dark and we reached frankfurt at about 5. their main aim of going to frankfurt was for the buffet dinner.

our lunch at the chinese restaurant in limburg...

i had the most food yesterday...imagine steamboat buffet for dinner after that...aaarrggghhh....everyone was full and satisfied. we paid only €14.50 per person including our water. no free sky juice here, drinking water has to be bought. it was one of those chinese restaurants in frankfurt in the lobby area of an office building. should be somewhere in the commercial district. ran by a chinese owner from china, of course. all tables were occupied by chinese from china...it is their world now. some germans were there but of course accompanied by their chinese friends and they had individual pots instead of 2 big ones like ours.

what do we have? steamboat and they also have grill...they grill the things u have chosen and send to the table when it is done. prawns, squids, lamb chop, beef, mutton, fishballs, chicken wings, chicken, sushi, fresh vege, oysters, oranges, glutinous rice ball dessert, ice-cream, crab stick, bamboo shoots, dim sum and fried stuff (fries, calamari rings)



sorry no photo of frankfurt...it was dark and the photos wouldn't be nice. i went to the shopping district: goethestrasse where they have all the designer shops...well, i was brought there. man, those shops were really empty at this time when it is the season to shop for the holidays. times are really bad. some of the shops which we entered: louis vuitton, prada, tods, burberry and tiffany.

things are expensive and it is not worth buying them here. try hk or italy where we will get VAT rebate. they give VAT rebate here too but the price is already more expensive compared to italy.

ooh ooh i tried the tiffany silver charm bracelet for size....yea...it fits...pocket cham lah....
