LL left the company on February and started her adventure in London. If you do remember the name LL, we had our farewell in Luna Bar on the week she left.

WL and I met her in London last weekend, she buy us dim sum lunch in this cozy Chinese restaurant named Yi-Ban at east London. This probably one of the most “high class” restaurant I ever go after 3 weeks in London.

The restaurant located next to a dockside of River Thames, very nice view. The balcony section is open during summer time, should be more joyful to sit outside. I’ve a feeling of returning to KL. The waiter and waitress are Chinese, most diners are Asian and it’s broadcasting Chinese songs.

We’re here for dim sum. Check out the menu, there are more than 70 items including the weekend special!

And these are the dim sum we had:

All the dim sum cost £2 ~ £2.50. The tastes are ok and look very nice. The chef really spends the effort into these dim sum to make it look tasty.

I really dunno what season is UK now. A colleague told me summer hasn't arrive yet another colleague say it's summer now. The air temperature came as low as 8°C and goes warm as 25°C.. really no idea. MF said it should be summer at this time, but weather still like end spring, due to winter was too long. I thought spring should be flowery, so I taken some flower photos. This post is going to be flowery.

TY, WL and I had a dinner on the night before TY heading back to KL. We gone to this restaurant called Bellinis Pizzeria located in East Sheen. This restaurant near to the place I stay, I've walk pass this restaurant for n number of times and yet never expect it’s such a nice place inside. It’s very comfortable inside. I forgot to take photos, too bad. I would like to sit outdoor at garden area if it wasn’t rain.

We had a complete meal, first time ever in London :p

Bellinis is confident that their price are in town, all above cost less than £40, very cheap indeed.

The Cutty Sark was built at Dumbarton in 1869 to be the fastest ship capable of sailing the perilous route from England to China to collect Tea. There are admission fee apply and don't seem interesting to me, so I didn't go in. Check out wikipedia for more information on Cutty Sark.



The Painted hall exterior look normal, but interior is a WOW. I shoot a lot of photos inside, most of the photos didn't appear in the right color, I wish I could show you how surprise when I was there.

It took 19 years for the painter to paint the hall. Don't know how to describe the feeling there, must experience oneself to feel this wonderful piece of work. Read some of the history here.


The Chapel, originally designed for a congregation of sailors now become an active place of prayer. Public services of worship are held every Sunday at 11am. More information on The Chapel here.
