Gerry likes dim sum

Recently, we've been taking Gerry to dim sum with us. Actually, I should be a bit more specific as we've always taken Gerry to dim sum with us. In the past, we would generally go to the Gold Coast - the hotel there has a Chinese restaurant which does really nice, albeit expensive, dim sum - rather than going to a more mainstream dim sum restaurant like Maxims.

To be honest, I've always liked Maxims. The dim sum there is of very good quality although it is slightly more expensive than other mainstream dim sum restaurants. The problem is that Maxims gets very packed especially as weekends. If you go at lunchtime, you generally end up waiting over 2 hours before you get a table!

However, if you go in the morning, you can get a table very quickly. And this is exactly what we've been doing recently on Saturdays. After getting up, we would get Gerry and go to Maxims for a dim sum brunch.


Here you can see Gerry thanking me for treating him to some nice dim sum. :)


Although I am thrilled to get a kiss, you can see he is less happy. Maybe I should have shaved...


I mentioned before that Gerry has a sweet tooth and also likes bread. Given this combination, I should have guessed that he would really love custard egg buns.


In fact, he liked them so much, he ended up eating all three (leaving none for poor mummy)!


Here you can see the aftereffects of eating three custard egg buns. Luckily we were well prepared with wet wipes (admittedly, they were normally reserved for his soft backside!).
